bers. Third, to give a state wide Wis
ion of Sunday school work and what

School association which is a cooper
ative movement for more and better
Sunday schoclc backed by leaders o.
the various limitations.
Programs for the aay which are be
ing sent out free from the office of tn
State Association, not only take up
the regular uniform lesson for the day
but by using appropriate music and
responsive readings takes the schoo
through drill on Sunday school work
Reports from about $4,000 more peo
pie attended Sunday school in Geor
gia, than would have attended had no.

tions over the State are that the day
will be more largely observed this
year than ever before.

WAS SLOW DAY IN
SUPERIOR COURT
ONLY a FEW CASES TRIED AND
THESE WE'RE MIsDEMEANoR
OFFENSES.

Superior court convened at the
usual hour but during the day very
little business was handled. The cases
tried were all misdemeanor but some
of them were rather long.
Jane Bryant, from st. Simon, was
convicted of assault and battery and
fined $50 to include the cost. Hilliard
Myers. charged with violating the pro-
hibition law was tried and same ex-
tended TO the closing hour. The case
went to the jury and sealed verdict
will be returned this morning which
VIII probably be, guilty.
It is thought that this will be the
Iaat day of court as only few cases
remain ready for trial and this will
end the court for the term.
Vt is understood the grand jury has
returned a number of true bills with
in the past few days.

YOUR WEDDING DAY
And the Famous Men and Women
Who Have shared II.
by MARY MARSHALL.
June 3O-James 6. Blaine and Har-
rIet ID. Stanw0od.

June 30-Jnmes &. Blaine and Har-
rIet b. StanwOod.
One of the most contemplate ex-
amples of political sCandal-mongering
that was ever indulged in in this coun-
try was carried on at the expense and
to the attempted discredit Of James
Gillespie Blaine. Briefly his enemies
wished TO disCredit him by bringing
evidence to prove that he was mar
ried in March. 1851. and that his eldest
child was born in June of the same
year.
However, much Blaine shrank from
discussing his own private affairs he
found himself obliged to make re-
cital OF the events OF his COurtship
and marriage at that time and brought
very conclusive evidence to prove that
he actually was married on June 80,
1870, just siXty-seven years ago to-
day.
In this account of his early man
hood he recOunts how in 1SiS. when
he was IS years old he met Harriet
B. Stanwood. She was teaching in
q young woman's school in George
town. KY, of which her sister was the
principal and he had recently been
installed there as assistant professor
of languages "Our acquaintance re-
suited, at the end of six months. in
an engagement. which. without pros
pect of a speedy marriage, We natu-
rally sought to keep to ourselves" he
said in this defense.
Not long after this Blaine was sud
denly summoned to his home in Penn
sylvania by the death of his father
and, to quote him again. at being
very doubtful If I could return to
Kentucky, I was threatened with an
indefinite separation from her who
possessed my entire devotion. My
one wish was to secure her to myself
by an indissoluble tie against every
possible contingency in life," and
hence a secret marriage took place
of which apparently the records were
not Kept.
In the following winter. a few
months before the birth OF their first
born young Blaine became alarmed
lest doubt might be thrown upon the
validity of the marriage by reason of
noncompliance with the laws Of the
Stale where it had occurred. So it
was that in Pennsylvania a second
marriage took place, the records of
which gave grounds for the calumny
brought against Blaine by his politi-
cal enemies.
AT the mature age OF 81" Blaine
said in his defense, II do not defend
the wisdom or the prudence of a Sc
cret marriage, suggested by the ardor
and the ineXperience of youth. but
its honor and its purity were invio-
late. as l believe. in the sight of God,
and cannot be made to appear other
wise by the wicked devices of men.
1t brought to me a comparionship
which has been to my chiefeSt hap
piness from boyhood's years to this
hour, and has crowned me- with what
ever success I have attained in life"
