Original Wedding Service.

An old-timc resident of the p!casah:
city of Madison relates Il story that nas
flavor of originality. One of the early
Judges of Madison, Dawson Dlackmort.
was called upon shortly after his elec.
ton to pcrfovm a marriage ceremony
at private residence. The notice was
brief and the judge prepared for the
event by studying the marriage ccrc-
mony in the Methodist book of disci-
r.inc. Fearing to trust to his memory,
he placed the book in his pocket to re-
fer to if necessary. When the bridal
party appeared before him he had for.
gotten every word of the ceremony,
and feeling in his coat pocket for the
took it was gone. A local wag had
removed it. But the Judge was equal
to the occasion. Assumlngan unusual
degree of judicial dignity he SUD:
Hold up your right hands! you and
each of you do solelnnly swear you
will perform the duties of husband and
wife to the best of your abilities, so
help you God? | pronounce you man
and wife. "-Indiano,olis Jou~N,al.
-Rev. G. f. Kline writes ~ the

years ago the parsonage at Emmcts-

piece of clustering knocked from the
ceiling. Instantly after being struck

beautiful children running towar(thim
and waving their hands and shouting
greetings of JOY" He felt no pain
whatever and wondered where he was.
Soon he came to himself and found his
wife and children weeping over him,
thinking he was dead. He was not

Recruiting Adopted

Congress took active notice of the
border situation today for the first
time. With only one vote against it,
that Of the Socialis. member. the
House passed join, resolution late In
the day authorizing the recruiting Of
the mobile regular army to full
strength. This means the addition OF
approximately 10000 fighting men, to
cavalry and artillery. The Senate is
expected to. concur tomorrow and the
necessary orders will be issued imme-
dat ely to fill up regiments on horde"
duty.
This is desired now because Of the
weakening of the border force by the
expedition after Villa but ever since
the patrol of the border began. the
army has been greatly handicapped by
the skeleton organization of regiments,
comr anies, troops and batteries. The
force that occupied Vera Cruz had
similar difficulties. q me Of the COM
