''Well. they are married at last, are tiey?" smiled Andrew as he sat down to dinner.
 "oh. Andrewl' said Imogene, it was awful"
 Why, what was the matter?" asked Andrew. T thought your friend Minnie Barton was such masterful woman and had had so many rehearsals and all details settled to such a fine point that the wedding would go off without a hitch"
 There was just where the trouble lay" said Imogene. She overdid it. You know Jack is such a good-natured fellow that he had let her boss him round sometn.ng awful ever since they were engaged. anu when they began to prepare to be mar ried she bullied him, the decorators. the CT gravers, the bridesmaids and everyone else in an awful manner.
 "Every one stood for it, of course, be- cause it was her wedding, and the event of her life, but she went little too far.
 They had the last rehearsal yester- day. and she was in an awful temper. She measured off just the distance each one of the ushers should step. she made the florist wild over the decorations and even the pastor was wiping the per- spiration off his brow before it was over, but the organist came in for the worst of it.
 sShe made him play the wedding march over nine times before he got the time just to suit her, and the things she said to him were shameful
 "She told him he ought to be on the corner playing an organ with a handle to it. She told him if he called his rendi- tion of the wedding march march he had better try to do it in rag time, and she insulted him again and again.
 Well, this morning just an hour be- Tore the wedding he telephoned that he was sick and couldn't come. "Of course, Jack knew what was the trouble, but he couldt tell Minnie Bar

Acworth, Ga.-"We have used Black-Draught in our family for years, and can say never have found a liver medicine that could equal it,' writes Mrs. J. A. Millwood, of this place. ''It is fine for indigestion, headache and sour stomach" she con- tinues.

 He found him, and Jack told the best nan that the fellows friends had been betting on some game, and he had been holding the stakes. He was intoxicated and told Jack that he was staying away from the church to try and prevent the wedding He said he liked Jack and didn't want to see him get into trouble. But with an extra fee promised and all sorts of inducements. Jack finally got him into the taxicab and took him to the church, took him up in the organ loft and hired the sexton of the church to stay here and keep him there.
 There were almost an hour late, for Minnie Barton had to get the traces oT tears off her face. and then when Jack came she did not like the tie he had on and she made him go home and change that.
 By the time they arrived at the the heat of the choir gallery had been too much for the organist, and he had gone

Pitchburg's musical element was rife with excitement.
 Gitta Spoofo, the worlds greatest bari tone Gall the posters said SOD was to sing ir the Pitchburg Opera House that night. The tickets were high, but the higher one sat the lower were the tickets, so most of the people sat high. One could hear better, they said.
 The house was crowded. All the Stand irg-room only'' signs had been taken down.
 Madame Offe-screechi had sung her Fearful Tillie" solo from "The Work ing Girls Ditty' and had been ready to infiict some encores.
 Jossip Slambaugowitz had played the I.iszt Slapsody with such bravoura ap- passioniendo that the piano reared up on it's hind legs in agony from the force of the blows
 And now the audience clamored madly and howled for spoofo. their beloved singer-the gifted one-to appear.
 But behind the scenes a different scene was taking place. The great impresario was wringing his hands when he wasn't [ tearing his hair. He was terribly temper amental.
 The great baritone. Gitta Spoofo. had refused to sing the wonderful "cata- logue' from Skatchiwatchi, unless the great impresario guaranteed him an extra ten thousand for the popular solo, which, as the impresario cried out, was twice what the seats would bring. But he. Gitta Spoofo, should sing for a paltry ten thousand. Diabolo! Get an- other singeri Pish.
 III. Ten minutes later the great impresario stepped before the footlights and an- nounced: "The great baritone. Gitta Spoofo, will sing the Catalogue from behind the scenes as the signor stepped off trolley before both ends had stopped and bruised his face so that he cannot appear before you. You will hear him just the same Then while the thunderous applause split the roof. the impresario ran behind the curtain and put on Gitta Spoofo photograph record of the famous "Cata- logue" solo amid the widest shouts of Bravo" from the audience. And thus was ten thousand saved, an impresario's honor unsmirched, and an audience appeased. (Tne Endo

San Francisco. June 26.-Q. N. S.)-
The battle is on. Today, with nearly
all the principal adversaries face to
face for the first time in the conven-
tion city, the real fight for control OF
the party began--the clan of President
Wilson on one side. the clan of William
Jennings Bryan on the other
Both sides admit that the choice OF a
democratic nominee for president de-
pends very largely upon the platform,
so the terrific but invisible struggle,
which reached full swing here today,
centered about the shaping of that doc
ument Chief of the points in dispute,
OF course, is the treaty, the wet and
dry" running 1t a close second.
Mr.. Bryan arrived here last night.
Today bright and early he got down
to business at his headquarters on the
second floor of the st. Francis hotel.
He at once took off his coat and in his
shirt sleeves received the callers who
came through the door of No. 230 In a
never ending stream.
The commoner, 1t is known, will lead
the fight here for treaty plank call
ing for whatever reservations are nee
essary to secure immediate ratification.
He will be the member of the resolu-
tions committee from Nebraska and
will open up with his guns there. II he
fails to get what he wants in committee
1t is understood he will carry the fight
to the floor of the convention, where
spectacular things may happen.
