On last Monday evening at ) 90
o'clock, at the home of the bride 3
uncle and aunt. Mr.. and Mrs f.
w. Jones, in Spokane, occurred
the wedding of Miss NJ. Pauline
Johnson and Bfr. Arthur L. Che
ley; older Stephen johnson,
grandfather of the bride, perform
ing the ceremony. The happy
event was witnessed by only a
few of the immediate relatives of
the contracting parties.
When the nuptial knot was tied
and the newly welded pair had
received the hearty congratula-
tons Of those present, the party
was ushered out to an elaborate
wedding dinner, which was served
by Mrs. Jones.
The happy couple then took
their departure on the evening
train for Edwards, Montana,
where the groom has a valuable
homestead.
The groom is prosperous
young farmer of the Edwards,
Montana, section, and his bride is
the charming daughter of z. A.
johnson, formerly of Nezpercc,
but now Of Lewiston. She was
born and grew to young woman
hood in Nezperee and was one Of
the most popular and highly es-
teeined young ladies Of our city,
and won highest honors on sew
cral occasions and at her gradu-
alton from our schools. She has
a host of friends in this commun- /
ity, whom The Herald joins in
hearty congratulations to the
young man who won her as his
bride and who wish them both
rich frrition in their union.

There is q tree in the West In
dies that the patives say grows
dishes" It looks like an apple tree.
They call It the calabash. II bears
very queer leaves and large white
blossoms that grow right from the
trunk and larger branches. After
the flower comes the fruit, Just as
our apples or peaches do. But this
fruit is in the shape Of a gourd, only
stronger and very much larger,
sometimes q foot in diameter. The
shell is 50 hard that all sorts Of big
and little dishes and drinking cups
can be carved out Of ii. Even pots
and kettles are made and used over
the fire, but Of course they cannot
last as long as our metal ones

In Friesland, it seems, there IL a
custom that the news Of a birth or
death is announced verbally BY a
man who calls at every house in the
village for that purpose. II he
brings the news Of a birth he wears
white gloves; if Of death they are
black. One day a child was born
dead in a Friesian village. Il was
necessary that the usual announce
ment should be made, but in what
colored gloves? The harbinger was
q man Of resource. He went his
rounds wearing one white glove and
one black one.

Ulysses s. Grant was a second
lieutenant in the national army
when General TAYLOR was sent 10
the Mexican border TO mobilize for
the Mexican trouble in 1913. II
was BY chance that Grant had his
FIRST experience with Mexican bull
lets. He was riding a horse far
from his regiment because he was
curious to see the ''front."
Just when he reached the front
the Mexicans opposing the Ameri-
cans began firing, and the nearest
American regiment was ordered TO
charge. Grant, as he later related,
did not have the moral courage to
turn back, so charged with the sol
diers. A number Of men we're kill
ed, but Grant escaped injury.
Shortly after he led his own regi-
ment at Palo Alto. The 5000 men
under General Taylor faced a much
larger force Of Mexicans. The two
armies watched each other as both
drew up in battle line. There were
no trenches. The Mexican cannon
ammunition was inferior to that
used BY the United States, and il
was largely the superiority in artil-
lery that permitted Taylor to sweep
everything before him.
Regarding the Palo Alto battle,
General Grant in his memoirs said:
~The Mexicans Immediately opened
fire upon us, first with artillery and
then with infantry. At first their
shots did not reach as, and the adj
vance was continued. As we got
nearer the cannon balls commenced
going through the ranks. They
hurt no one, however, because they
would strike the ground long be-
fore they reached our line, ard they
through the tall grass 50
slowly that the men would see them
and open ranks to let them pass"
AS for the flint lock muskets then
in use, General Grant said, AT a
distance Of a few hundred yards q
man might fire at you all day with
put your finding it out." = Wall
Street Journal.

Throughout yesterday and to-
day the entire nation has stood as
one gigantic question mark
Who's elected2" And still the
answer seems to be up in the air.
So close is the result that it will
take the full count in California
and Minnesota, which themselves
are very close, to settle it. The
former state with its 10 eleetor-
ial votes or the latter with its II
would give Wilson the required
majority 1t has been a long time
since the result Of a presidential
election meant so much to the
United States.
