ture on the program was little 49,
year-old ona Simpson. deaf, dumb and
blind. who with her teacher. Miss
Sophia Alcorn. showed what a person
could do even though badly handicap

even more remarkable than the noted
Helen Keller as she can read the voice
with her hands from the mouth,
throat or back of the neck, simply by
placing her hands on one the places
and feeling the vibration. The child
has been attending school at Danville
and as her mother is very poor con-
tributions were asked for TO support
her during the summer while there
is no school In u very few minutes

Manager Washam of our high

ers and several others Saturday
afternoon and went to the woods
on a hunt for a bee tree. OF
course Bert knew all the time
the exact spot where the tree
could be found but tie others
hunted straight for it with him
for guide. Lunch, then wading
into the tree with axes. The
top was but a shell and when the
tree hit the ground it shattered
and scattered about a half bar
rel of honey and como about
over the ground. but about a half
barrel was taken from the tree
just the same. COons are gett-
ing about ripe enough for Wur-
sham to set the teachers on their
trail.

Tisdale-MOOre

A surprise was sprung on the
many friends of Mrs. Louise
Moore and Edgar Tisdale Thurs
day evening of last week by this
popular couple uniting in mar
riage at the home of the bride
at 6p. m. and taking an auto
mobile for Brunswick where they
embarked on train 9 at Tbs for
Kansas City.
Mr.. and Mrs. Theo Wood, Mr..
and Mrs. W. B. Adams, Mr.. and
Mrs. John Garnett, Miss Rebecca
Moore and Charles Schell, Jr.,
were present.
While it has been suspicioned
that a match had been made be-
tween the two, no indication or
intinuatiCn had appeared or been
given that the date was 60 near
at hand. Rev Rudd and an
auto were on hand and the cere-
mony and departure were so con-
tinuous that no time was given
to produce old shoes and rice.
Mrs. Louise Tisdale is a native
of this town and celebrated for
aer musical talent and splendid
voice as well as thorough domes-
tic qualities. She taught music
at the high school last year and
was named by the board for the
position again this term but re-
signed.
Edgar Tisdale is and has been
all his life, one of the boys.
Everybody knows and likes Tiz,
who has been our Chief Police
for several years. He was en-
gagged in the livery business with
Will Adams until within a year,
selling his interest and devoting
his attention to the improvement
Of our roads and streets.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tisdale will make
4 their home here for u time at
least. The Curriers' heartiest
Congratulations.

No Prohibition Amendment.

Secretary of State Cornelius
Roach has notified prohibition
leaders that he will not have the
amendment they got up printed
on the ballot to be voted in No
vemher
His reason is that it conflicts
with the Constitution of the
United States and the prerog.
atives of Congress.
IL is likely that a mandamus
will be issued and the opinion OF
the Supreme Cunrt sought in an
undertaking 10 force the Secre-
tary to submit the amendment
to the people.
Secretary Roach holds that il
the amendment as gotten up is
no good. there is no use wasting
time and money by putting il on
the ballot.

the lifelong friendship of the
givers. Her daughters, Mrs B.
D. Kribben of St. Louis and Mrs.
Bert Lewis of Omaha and grand.
children, reminded her in adj
vance of the coming event by
sending huge baskets of fruil
