S. H. DODGE DEAD
Pioneer Kansan Dies at Age of
20 Years.
For 35 Years He Published the
BeIOit Gazette.

BeIoit Kan, Dec. as. H. Dodge,
! a pioneer of Mitchell and Cloud coun-
ties, IS dead here. He was 40 years
| old. Death occurred early Sunday
morning and the funeral is to be held
from the family home today.
For 8 IS years Dodge was the editor
and publisher of the Beloit Gazette,
one of the well known Kansas publica-
tions. He was looked upon as the
father of the profession in that sec
ton of the state. He retired from
newspaper work five years ago, about
the time of the death of his wife.
The first office he held in Kansas
was the land Office at Concordia. This
place he held until the office was an
nulled by the federal government. He
was mayor of his town several times
and is we'll known throughout Kansas.
He was a member of the Masonic or
der, belonging to the Isis temple of

two daughters. The sons are George
H Dodge of BelOit and Clyde Dodge,
who is now engaged in newspaper
work in the northwest The daughters
are Mrs. w. w. Dillworth of Beloit and
Mrs. F. M. F'ilson of Cameron, Mo.
OF a thrifty stock, Mr.. Dodge amasS-
ed a fortune. The foundation for this
was laid when he was in the land Of
fee. He made his newspaper pay and
since his retirement from that pro-
feSsion has added materially to his
fortune by variouse deals in real
estate

TWO WEDDINGS
One Looked Rosy as the Dawn
on the HiIItOps.
Other Gloomy With FOrehOding
Which Will Turn Out Best!

There are weddings and weddings.
That is automatic, but thereby hangs
a tale. There are weddings in which
all parties interested seem to be bub-
bling over with happiness, and other
weddings in which an atmosphere of
strained silence seem to portend an
evil end. Not that it always ends
that way, but the air is there never
theless.
The other day young man was
making arrangements to be married.
He was too happy to think of any
thing but his own happiness and his
wish, wholly unexpressed but apparent
nevertheless, that everyone might be
as happy as he. He forgave his enc
mics, hunted up those who had done
him injury to shake hands with them
and bury the Ratchet. Happiness fair
meet him without feeling that the
world was better place to live.
His ffancee, tired out though she
was with the preparations for the we'd
ding, smiled her appreciation of the
kind things said to her, and fairly
beamed whenever anyone spoke. She
too was intoxicated with the purest
kind of happiness.
The same day another little girl sat
in her own room, wan and fearful.
Her eyes glistened with tears that re-
fused to flow, and she trembled every
time anyone spoke. Her friends told
her She was sealing her own death
kneu in answering the questions that
made her a bride. She was going far
away, and her intended husband bore
none too good a reputation. The we'd
ding already had been postponed
number of times by him, and she was
terribly afraid.
Perhaps the wedding where all was
happiness may turn out happily and
maybe not. And maybe the other we'd
ding may result in the most happiness.
Who can tell? But the portents are
rather the reverse.
