Anderson -Hulsey

A marriage in which a wide
circle of friends are greatly in
terested was that of Miss Mary
Hulsey and Mr.. John Henry
Anderson solemnized last Friday
evening, October 20, at nine
O'Clock.
Rev. w. M. Young performed
the beautiful and impressive
ceremony, Rev. F. D. Daniels
offering a prayer. Only a few
close friends of the bride and the
immediate family of the groom
witnessed the marriage which
occurred at his home, by the
earnest request of his mother
whose condition of health has
been serious for some time.
The wedding was to have taken
place month later, at the home
of the bride, but she graciously
yielded to the later arrangement,
showing a sweet, kindly spirit
and making happier the heart of
another.
When the ceremony had been
concluded their first thought
was of this cherished mother
and they turned to receive her
blessing which will abide with
them throughout the coming and
going of the years.
A lunch of tropical fruit,
brought from Sunny Florida"
by Arthur L. Miller. the groom's
uncle of Leesburg, was served in
the dining room by the members
or the household.
The bride, a handsome bru-
nette and an attractive young
lady, was attired in a modish
and becoming suit of African
brown with accessories in har-
mony, while the manly groom
showed to splendid advantage in
the conventional black suit.
The bride is the second daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. 7. G..
Hulsey, leading citizens of Oko-
Iona. She came to Pontotoc
about twelve months ago as
demonstration for the County
Canning Club, and in short
time had endeared herself to all
our people of the town and
county. While she has faith
fully performed the duties of her
office at all times, when occasion
permitted, she graced our social
circles and was from the first a
general iavorite. Modest, wo-
manly and considerable of others,
she wins all hearts. Pontotoc
rejoices that she is now indeed
our very own.
I The groom, eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. B. d. Anderson, is one
of the best young men of this
place having always held the
confidence and highest esteem of
every acquaintance in his native
town and wherever known. A
more popular man cannot be
found and his friends are legion.
He is an active member of the
Bingham-Ander Civilian Hard
ware Co. Of this place.
The Sentinel extends congrat-
ulations and best wishes for a
long, united life of unalloyed
happiness nd contentment,
years of usefulness crowned with
prosperity. - Pontotoc Sentinel.

Subcommittee Believes if Men Hear Wilson's
Proposition They May Yield Certain Points,
All Hope of Arbitration is Gone

United Press
WASHINGTON, August 16.- Six
hundred district chailmen of the rail,
way Brotherhoods, WHO are in New
y Grk, will come to Wash ington this
afternoon to meet President Wilson.
The president appealed directly 20
them at the suggestion Of the en-
ployes subcommittee who beiieve if
the men hear his argument hat was
presented at the conference hey may
yield certain points in their final de-
cision, on which the sui committee
feels compelled to stand out.
The settlement now hinges on the
disposal of collateral issues growing
out of the hour prospects, which the
road conceded. The hope oi arbitra-
ton is gone. 1t is understood the
president has definitely Ai1carded It.
Carter, president of TIE firemen,
at New York today submitted to the
600 Brotherhood representatives
President Wilson's tentative propos-
ais that the tailroai adcp' an eight
hour day for trial period together
with the present overtime schedule.
Arrangements have been made at
the White House to receive the 900
Brotherhood representatives. The
President will see them tomorrow.
Beyond agreeing to hear the Presi-
dents appeal, the men took no furth'
er action on the tentative proposal.
The employees insist the railways or
the President suggest means of in
vestigation of the collateral issuse
and allow them to pass on it.

1t had been suggested that the Gel

but the Motor Club went on record
in favor of having the celebration on
the very top, since it was claimed
that all who attended the celebration
will want to go to the top and that
the top is the logical place for the
celebration. The secretary was in

DEATH OF YUAN SHI KAIA
GOOD THING SAYS JAP

TOXIC, July l5.-(By MaiD- at
is not easy to say whether the death
Of Yuan Shi Kai will prove advan-
tageous to Japan, But | think it ia
Fortunate for China that he died, in
that his death helped to settle the
troubled situation in that country"
Baron Gousake Hayashi, newly ap-
pointed Japanese minister to China
thus discussed the situation in the
big republic in an interview here to-
day. Baron Hayasm criticised the
attitude OF many japanese towards
China, but said he could not now say
whether there will be change in the
policy of the japanese government.
"fuan Shi Kai went looking for
trouble when he attempted to reestab-
hsn the monarchy" he said. at is Il
question whether the warning given
by the Japanese government was
good or bad. II the warning had to
be given, why was it not given in a
sportsmanlike manner, instead of con
sidcring Chinese affairs as if they
were our own?
"The anti-Japanese sentiment in
China could not be avoided. Within
our own country we have had anti,
government quarrels.
In the last session of the Diet, the
question Of guiding China was dis
cussed. 1t is not proper to use tho
word guiding 1t makes the Chinese
uncomfortable. Isn't it fact that
japan really has no power to take
the responsibility Of guiding China
Intelligent Chinese merely laugh when
they hear such word used.
eve have had our own troubles in
raising our country to its present
state. Before China can succeed in
breaking away from the habits OF
1000 years ago many years must pass
and she must go thru many expert
ences,
Il believe it is good thing to uni
fy the pubic opinion OF Japan con
cefning our China policy, but would
advise my countrymen not to be in
TOO great hurry about settling the
problems presented there. When the
dme comes China will advance to
wards good government. 1t would be
a great mistake to try to grasp the
miIet with the wet hand now"
Baron Hayashi declined to discuss
IN detail the probable effect of the
new Russo-Japanese agreement but
said:
''lhe Russo-Japanese agreement is
to be called a good thing rather than
a success. In China various suspic-
ions seem to be entertained about it,
but l think they will prove to be
only temporary"

II fffT
Of SOLID
QUARTZ

The recent big strike in the Colum-
bus mine is attracting much atten-
ion, and several Durango people and
others interested in mining went up
10 the Columbus mine to make an
examination. They came back very
enthusiastic over the situation and
say that the late discovery in the
Columbus mine by James Doyle has
greatly encouraged all La Plata dis.
trict miners.
The Columbus cross-clut is operat-
ed by Mr., Doyle with f. N. Beach
in charge. They cut the vein under
the old workings and struck 40
foot vein with IL feet Of solid quartz.
This is some of the finest looking
mineral that has ever been taken out
of the La Platas. 1t has not yet been
assayed, but it is known to be very
rich in gold.
This big strike by Doyle has start
ed several mining men of the upper
La Plata to push the mining business.
The Snow Storm is working good
strong vein and everything points to
renewed work in the La Platas.
1t is only a matter of developing
the mines in the La Plata section in
order that the whole district will be
shipping hundreds of tons of ore. 1t
is true that it requires some little
capital to develop the mines but it
will pay big to open them up and
make the La Plata district one of the
richest and biggest in the entire
state.
