"nary asthore" saws / i've come

Mary, ashore" says /, I've come
back to you. Won't you take me?"
She put her head on my shoulder
and cried there And that's how
caught her heart on the bounce, as l
said.
The wedding day was all settled.
but very soon / saw that 1t was Ter
ece all the time and not me she cared
for Faith, there's no telling how q
girls tastes will run. And l saw there
wouldn't be overmuch happiness in
store for us, but I wasn't going to let
a Limerick man. and a giant at that,
steal her from one of the Dermotts.
So l made out l didn't see through
her pretense at caring for me.
AS for Terence, I met him once
when / was into Limerick with a
drove of hogs. He looked at me sort
Of suriy, but didn't bear malice when
! went up and spoke to him. l found
out that he loved Mary just as much
as ever. But | didn't feel any more
like losing the pride of Dunchestown
to Limerick man So put my trou-
pies DefOre tES priest.
When Father O'Brien had heard my
scheme for making an end of Terence,
l mean as a possible cause Of trouble
after the ceremony, he winked and
clapped ME on the back.
MARY" I said that evening, who
do you thinks going to be best man
at the wedding next Thursday? Who
but Terence MacShane?"
She started and began to protest.
But told her the priest had arranged
that all enmity should be drowned in
this way, and if the bridegroom
couldn't choose his own best man who
was going to do it for him? She fought
over it for long, but at last told her
If she didn't allow it I'd refuse her
at the ceremony and shame her before
all the village You ought to have
seen the look she gave me then. II
my head was as thick as Limerick
mans I'd have known why she was
marrying me then. 1t was to spite
Terence And yet she couldn't bear
TO have him at the wedding.
l got her consent at last, after the
Father had put in his word, and
Thursday came, as a good many
Thursdays have come along since
then We met Terence at the door,
looking very sheepish and very
wretched I think the Father had
word with his priest in Limerick and
made him come as a penance for
something Anyway, there he stood,
scowling at me and never looking at
Mary, and she nearer crying than
laughing 1t was a strange sort Of
wedding.
Then the Father began, and when
he came to asking the questions he
sort of looked up inquiringly l knew
my cue had come.
wilt thou take this woman to be
thy welded wife?" he asked me, and I
slipped out and caught Terence by
the arm and dragged him up to
Mary.
Say yes, Terence" I whispered
and he said it quick as a flash. And
the bans had been in his name, too,
but nobody could read the Fathers
writing.
No, I didn't stay for the wedding
breakfast. The fact is, I slipped out
through the door before the ceremony
was over. But that's how | came to
America after all. 1t happened a long
time ago. and-well, I've almost for
gotten now.

SHOES AT HALF PRICE
FOR NATIONAL GUARDSMEN

WASHINGTON, March 21.-A plan
whereby army shoes made under Uni
ted States government inspection are
afforded enlisted men of the organ
lied militia at half-priee, or about
s1.50 a pair, already has been adopted
in Maine Michigan, Pennsylvania,
California and Iowa. Members of the
State militia throughout the Union
are eligible to procure their footgear
on like advantageous terms.
Company commanders make the
purchase direct from authorized man
ufacturers. The State pays $3.50 for
each pair of shoes SO issued and the
other S1.50 Is deducted from the mans
camp pay. Under this plan the men
are allowed to retain the shoes as
their personal property, whereas I'M
der the system by which shoes were
issued to State militiamen through
the federal government they were
charged against each man and ac-
counted for on State property returns.

the present administration would be
the restoration of what he termed

You cannot cross the United

ont passing through a State which Is
governed by a progressive Democrat.
Illinois has just placed one in office.
Ohio elected a progressive at the last
election. as did Nebraska, Kansas and
Missouri, and you came very near to

progressive Democrats cast their
votes for e-President a short time

the United States has been made pro-
gressive and the new rules of that
body enable the majority of the party

Secretary Bryan exhorted the
office seekers to remember that every
platform of the party for the last
twenty years had placed principles
before office holding, but the fact
that appalled, him was that he was
not able to appoint all of his friends

SCHOOL ATHLETES
IN COMPETITION
Meet in Annual Games at the
Opening of New Athletic
Field.

Scholboys of all sizes and ages COM
peted this afternoon in the annual
games of the Newark Public School
Athletic Association.
The occasion also marked the for
NAL opening of the new public school
athletic field. The dedicatory exer-
cises were simple, Mayor Haussling
and other city officials, including
members of the Board of Education,
making short addresses. Immediate
ly after the completion of the cere-
monies the games were gotten under
way.
The boys of the Sussex Avenue
School started with a clean sdVant-
age over the other contestants. This
was due TO the splendid work of the
girls of the school, who, yesterday,
returned a percentage of .594 in the
opening contests of the public school
meet. The scores of the boys viii be
added to those the girls made yes
terday. Fourteenth Avenue school
started in second place, thanks to the
efforts of her girl athletes, too.
Above all the other prizes the
schoolboys were anxious to annex the
handsome silver loving cup, the gift
of the Newark Evening Star. which
will be awarded TO the school scoring
the greatest number of first prizes.
The South Eighth Street School
girls yesterday came home first in
two events. and thereby gave the boy
athletes of the same institution a fly
ing start
The entry list numbers more than
1000. In it are included champions,
near champions. future champions
and boys who never competed before
A variety of costumes was worn
by the contestants. To the casual OBJ
server it would seem that every boy
in Newark who could afford TO pur-
chase a pair of sneakers had entered
one or another of the events.
