DOSTON.-Mozes Pimentel, cigar ID maker of Boston, and Marie Jo- hanna Liesmann of Amsterdam, Hol- land, have been married without either leaving home. The queen of Holland consented to their marriage by proxy.
 Though marriage by proxy is not allowed in the United States, so many legal steps have been taken to bring about this union that there seems no doubt the immigration people will recognize it when the bride arrives in America
 When Mozes Pimentel strolled into the office of Charles c. Dasey, acting counsul of Holland, and said he wished to be married by proxy, MT. Dasey did not believe it could be done. However, on the insistence of the Hol-

HELPLESS WHEN ON ITS BACK PrsdIeament of Camel Means Much Hard Work and Is Conducive to
 Profanity.

The ship of the desert," like any other ship, may be capsized, and in that predicament the camel is said to be absolutely helpless under certain conditions.
 The queer beasts manner of lying down to rest is to fold his legs be- meath his body. If he happens to roll upon his side he cannot recover his feet again. This infirmity of the animal was amusingly illustrated in the experience of a French explorer whose caravan was made up of cam els.
 The leader had bought some new ones and had no idea of taking any other animals into a country largely composed of loose sand. Trouble be- gan at the very outset. One camel, as awkward as any of the species, man. aged to tumble into a ditch of thick mud between the road and a wheat field. When once fallen a camel can only get up again if he can arrange his feet conveniently under him and if the ground is nearly flat.
 In this case it was not so. The ami nal lay with all four feet in the air, perfectly resigned and incapable of a single movement to help himself. To draw him out required more than half an hour and took the united efforts of many men with cords passed un- der the cameIs back.

How a Couple Was Married by Proxy

lander he sent a statement of the sit uation to the consul general at New York.
 The ceremony of acquiring a bride without being present at the ceremony as gone through with Pimentel is as follows:
 First, special petition to the queen explaining the necessity for the proxy marriage. This has been done and consent obtained. Next, a power of attorney giving Hartog Pimentel, his brother, the right to act for him was prepared.
 Then a declaration to wed was sworn to by Pimentel before notary. According to the Dutch custom, the notary's seal was then certified to by the secretary of theAtate of Massachu- setts, and Consul Dasey certified to the authenticity of the seal of Mas sachusetts. These documents were mailed to Amsterdam When Brother Hartog received them he went before the registry official in Holland, with the bride on his arm, and made all the answers required in the marriage ceremony.

Bible Prompts a Poacher to Confess

TNDIANAPOLIS.-A Hoosier, who ! has "seen the light of Christianity, !" has been impelled thereby to write to George W. Miles, commissioner of fisheries eand game, "peaching'' on himself for hunting on a game pre- serve. He has confined his operations to the pursuit of the ignominious rab- bit, however, and has not assaulted the game birds placed in the preserves by the state. Therefore, he sought clemency for his "crime" and 1t has been meted out to him by the com missioner on the ground of lack of in- tent
 The letter, in part, follow:
 "As I am living to all the light I have on the word of God (the Bible), feel ought to tell you of my hunting on one or two of the game preserves. which was only after a rabbit. The winter of 1910 I was hunting on the reserve south of Washington, between the D. & I. railroad and the gravel pike road running from Petersburg.
