steal March on Friends

|
Miss Wayne June Koch Il Keokuk,
and Mr.. William E. Flanagan of New
York were married in Chicago yester
day morning. They stole a big march
on their friends in Keokuk, and only
two persons here knew of their plans.
The message announcing their mar
riage was received yesterday afternoon
by Miss Marie Conn, who with Mrs.
Koch were the only two people who
knew Of the plans OF the couple.
Miss Koch who has been employed
with the Ayres & Chapman jewelry
company for about a year, sent word
Thursday that she would be unable
to come to work, that her mother was
LII and she was needed at home. Her
real plan however, was confided to
| her intimate friend, Miss Conn, who
Is also employed at the same store. In
that woman can keep a secret. For
not one linking of the affair did Miss
Conn let be known until she received
word that she might tell friends.
| Friday afternoon Miss Koch left
Keokuk on the northbound train. She
arrived in Chicago Friday evening and
yesterday morning met Mr.. Flanagan
who arrived from New York. They
were married during the morning. Mr..
Flanagan left Keokuk for New York
just before Christmas, and at that
time no definite plans for q wedding
had been made. Since then, however
the young couple decided to be mar
ried as soon as possible, and laid
their palms.
Mrs Flanagan is the daughter
OF Mrs. Dena Koch, 1922 Nor
4 gan street She Is quite popu
lar with a large circle of friends In
this city. Mr.. Flanagan was the pur
chasing agent for the Hydraulic En-
cheering company of Maine. He
1 lived for two years in Keokuk, during
the construction Of the dam.
The plans Of the newlyweds are
not definitely known, aside from The
fact that they expect to come to Keo
kuk for few days to visit. They viii
go east after their visit here, it is ex
pected. Just where they will take vi
their residence is not known at thi!
time.
The news of the clever manner il
which Mrs. Flanagan ouf-generallet
her host of friends in Keokuk quickl.
spread. and best wishes We're sent tn,
newly married couple from their larg
circle of friends here last night.

In London they tell Of a certain dis
tinguished statesman who is an opti-
mist on all points a V marriage.
One afternoon this statesman was
proceeding along a country road when
he saw a cottager eating his supper
alone in the road before his dwelling.
"Why, Henry" asked the statesman,
why are you eating out here alone?"
"Well, sir-er"-the man stammered,
"the-er-chimney smokes"
"That's too bad" said the statesman,
his philanthropic sentiments at once
being aroused. "Tll have it fixed for
you. Let's have a look at it."
And before the cottager could stay
him the statesman proceeded to enter
the cottage. AS soon as he had en-
tered the door q broomstick fell upon

shrieked:

where the substitution had been made
l could only guess.
Who, | wondered, had bought the

most difficult to sell. 1t could, of
course, be cut up. But that would be
sacrilege. One morning in the personal
column of LIE Matin appeared a notice,
Of which this is the English:
Louvre:
1t has been my good fortune to come
into possession of the rose diamond known
as the MaZarin. 1t is my wish to restore
it to your collection in order that 1t may
no longer be necessary to delude the pub
lie with an imitation of colored glass. 1t

brilliant to you with my compliments pro-

Should he refuse it will be my melancholy
duty to cleave the diamond into a num-

for my use. But l hope that he will not
refuse.
The Invincible.
What could the grand duke do? To
have refused. would have made him
the butt Of the b~oulevards. Besides.
he was. after all. losing nothing which
he had not already lost. So, with a
better grace than one might have ex-
pected. he consented to join in the res
toration. Two days later the direc-
tor Of the Louvre discovered a packet
upon his desk. He opened it and
found within the Mazarin. When you
visit the Louvre. you will see it in the
place of honor in the glass case in the
center Of the gallery of Apollo. with
an attendant on guard beside it.
And Crochard? I do not know. Each
