CHINESE COUPLE HAVE
 CHRISTIAN WEDDING
sued to MoneoIians in Ma tion's Capital.

Washington, Nov. 1-Dawn dimmed the lights of the local Chinatown and ended a celebration that followed the first Chinese wedding performed here according to Christian rites. The bridegroom was Lee Vow, ''mer- chant prince" of the colony, and his bride was Miss Gnu How. daughter of a wealthy merchant of New Yorks Chinatown. The wedding ceremony was preceded by the issue of a mar riage license, said to be the first ever issued here for the mating of a Chi nese couple.
 Lee Vow hesitated to be welded according to Christian rites, for fear that it would affect his standing with his countrymen, but they counseled him to carry out this plan on the ground that China was now repub- lie like the United States and that therefore liberality had supplanted prejudice.

 Mrs. Shermans health has been poor of late, and the family feared the result of the shock of her hus. bands death. It was said she had had some rest after daylight and was a trifle more composed than immedi. ately following her husbands death
 Sacrifice to Party, Doctors Say.
 The doctors in attendance on the vice-president to the last declared that he sacrificed himself as a result of party loyalty. It was against their advice that he eXerted himself noti fication day, and it was agreed that his fatal illness dated from then, al though he had been sick for a year. When he insisted on going to the polls to register last week, he aggra. vated his condition to such an extent that the doctors were unable to re. pair the damage.
 As a mark of respect for the dead official, all of the political meetings arranged for this city have been aban. doned. The Democratic city commit. tee had workmen busy removing Will son and Marshall banners which were strung across the most prominent thoroughfare. A Progressive meet. ing, at which the chief speaker was to have been Gov. Hiram Johnson of California, has been abandoned.
 Hundreds of telegrams of sympathy have been received at the Sherman home, including messages from Presi. dent Taft, Gov. Wilson and Col Roosevelt.
 Mrs. Sherman was reported pros trated at the sherman home, and the announcement of the details of the funeral await her approval.

uoME TOWN IS IN MOURNING
n...ore Insist Official Was Victim of Party Loyalty Bringing on Fatal Illness by His Po-

utica, N. Y, Nov. This city was in deep mourning Thursday because of tbe death of it's foremost citizen, lanes Schoolcraft sherman, vice-pres- ident of the United States.
 Flags were at half-mast everywhere, and black draperies enshrouded the nublic buildings and most of the big business establishments.
 The mourning was general, because Sunny Jim as his fellow townsmen afectionately called him, was liked universally. As mayor of the city, and later as congressman, he had been identified with the affairs of the community for more than 30 years.
 The members of the family have been asked to consent to a public funeral. Plans along this line were being made, subject to the approval of Mrs. Sherman and the three sons of the dead man.
 It was considered certain that the funeral would take place from Old Dutch Reformed church nere, or Wnlcn Sherman had been trustee and treas urer for many years. The tentative plans provided for the attendance of the president of the United States, if possible, and the majority of the sen, ate, over which the vice-president pre-. sided the last four years, and of the house, in which he formerly was a leader

DEAD" HEART BEATS MONTHS

preserved In glass Jars in suitable
media. He found also that a fragment
OF tissue preserved in the same man

long time.
These experiments are described II
the current issue of the Journal of Ex

expresses this opinion:
1T Is even conceivable that ths
length OF the life of tissue outside
Of tho organism could exceed greatly
its normal duration in the body be-
cause elemental death might be post

He further states, after outlining tina
method OF cultivating the tissues, that
these results showed that the very
death Of tissues cultivated in vitro was
preventable. and. therefore, that their
permanent life was not impossible"

some experiments and his conclu.

First Rock to Talk.

In New street, Horsham, England
says writer in the May Strand, there
Is to be seen the very exceptional and
interesting spectacle of talking rock.
The bird is the property of two school
children, a little girl and boy, who
caught it five years ago. when it was
quite baby, in local rookery. 1t is
of the gentler sex, and occupies a
small pen in tiny back garden. No
attempt has ever been made to teach
the rock to talk, and yet she has a
vocabulary of close upon 100 simple
words. She is often allowed out in
the garden, for, although she can fly
swiftly and strongly, she can be trust
ed not to make her escape 1t is said
that this Is the first instance of rock
developing the power to talk.
