Curious Marriaqe Custom.

The kurds have a very curious and
somewhat dangerous marriage custom
which one would think would be more
honored in the breach than in the oh.
The husband, surrounded
by a b%odyguard OF twenty or thirty
young lnen, carries his wife home on
his back in a scarlet cloth and is des-
perately assaulted the whole way by a
lumber OF girls. Sticks and stones
are hurled at the bridegroom, who in
The coming home with his bride can
hardly be considered a very happy
man, for the irate amazons often in
dict on him marks which he carrier
TO the grave. 1t may be that among
the lady pursuers are some of the
5ridegroom's former 'lames," who
turn the mock attack into downright
earnest to avenge sighted love.

ThaW Case at a Standstill.

White Plains, N. Y, June NO
testimony was taken in the Thaw
hearing at the first session to-day. 1t
is thought possible a commission may
be appointed to decide the case.
Judge Keogh again failed to appear
on the bench at this afternoons ses-
sion, and after another conference
with the attorneys for Thaw' S and the
State it was announced that a recess
would be taken until tomorrow
morning.
It was said in the courtroom that
Judge Keogh, after hearing Thaw's
testimony yesterday, suddenly re-
membered that he had been consult
ed by one of Thaw's counsel some
years ago, and that because of this he
refused to 90 on with the case.
Neither the Judge nor any of the
attorneys would say any thing.

Missouri Must Import Peaches.

Columbia, Mo-, June 29.-Because
of the failure of the peach crop in Mis-
souri, this year, the State is having to
import peaches from Georgia and
other Southern States, although it is
one of the leading fruit-growing States
in the Union.
Missouri grows the highest-priced
peaches in the world, supplying the
table of the "four hundred" in New
York City. Last year the highest price
ever recorded for peaches was paid
by New York firm for carload
grown in the Ozarks. The car brought
81, 785, or $7.38 a bushel.
This year, however, the crop is al
most total failure, the estimate of
the Board of Agriculture for the en-
tire State being 6 per cent of a good
crop. The severe winter killed most
of the buds and virtually ruined the
crop.
Fruit will be brought into the State
this year in larger quantities than
usual. The apple crop will be large.

HuNNEWEL. COUNCIL MET AGAIN
Woman Mayor Presided, But Her Ap.
Pointments Were Turned Down
Passed Tax Levy.

Hunnewell, Kan, July 3.-The city
council here met in regular session for
the first time since the state supreme
court rendered its decision in the ia
nous custer suit and issued instruc-
tons to the woman mayor and three
remaining councilmen to get busy.
At the meeting there was not much
doing except that the councilmen
once more refused to confirm the ap-
pointments of Mrs. Wilson, but they
did pass an ordinance levying a tax
of one mill for general purposes and
one mill for street work.
Mrs. Wilson says that the council
men did not act rudely but that they
showed they did not care to transact
any business.
