viding himself with an execution for
the sale of property instead of a mar
riage license delayed the wedding in
Charles Mix county of Charles Medi-
cine Horse. a Yankton Sioux Indian,
and Lidia Jones. his sweetheart. The
young people had proceeded to the
home of Rev. r. f. Bayes, who had
consented to tie the knot for them.
Adam Grimes, an attorney, had as
sumed the task of securing the mar
riage license. He appeared on the
scene and the ceremony was about
to proceed when he made the discov-
cry that by mistake he had picked up
in his office an envelope containing
the execution instead of that contain
ing the marriage license.

Aberdeen Favored.

Aberdeen.-The Mobridge CONNER
cial club may make an effort to secure
a proposed flax pulp factory hat east
ing in South Dakota. The eastern men
wrote John d.. Deets, state immigra-
ton agent, for a suitable location, and
Deets recommended Aberdeen, owing
to the location of this city in proxim-
ity to a large area in the Dakotas de-
voted to flax raising. The Mobridge
business men are indisposed to agree
to Mr.. Deets' recommendation and
centend that Mobridge is the better To-
cation, owing to the cheap power from
the Missouri river.

St. Peters Church at Chertsey, Eng
land.

Heriot "sprang within the old church
door, mounted up the gloomy tow
er" and kept the bell from ringing
what would have been fair young
Basils funeral knell." His name, by
the way, was neither Basil nor I'm
derwood; it was Nevill, and he was
a nephew Of Warwick, the King Max
er; nor had Cromwell anything to do
with the episode, which happened a
couple of centuries before the future
protector was born. Why Miss Thorp,
who, it seems, is still living at San
Diego, Cal, transferred the incident
from the earlier period to the later,
that lady alone knows. She is now
sfxty-two years old, and among her
treasures is a porcelain replica Of the
famous bell, which was sent to her
from Chertsey.
This old abbey or curfew bell now
forms the fifth one Of a peal of eight
in the belfry of the Chertsey parish
church. After hundreds of years the
ringing of the curfew was abandoned
at Chertsey, but 1t was revived by
the present vicar and now is carried
out from October / to March 20.
