Wedding Announcement Bit Delayed

r AXE FOREST, ILL.-Clayton
Mark of Lake Forest, millionaire
L. steel man and president Of the
Civic federation, has announced
the marriage of his daughter, Anna
Griffith, aged nineteen, to Avery
Rockefeller of New York, twenty-year-
old son Of Percy Avery Rockefeller,
and grandson of the late William
Rockefeller, brother of John D.
Rockefeller.
But the announcement was just
bit late.
For the wedding, according to the
engraved card which surprised Chi
cago and New York society folk, took
place September 20, 1923. Supple
menting their surprise came the equal
ly startling news from Mr.. Mark that
his daughter and son-in-law are now
travelling in England with their young.

The marriage was a double secret

Relics of Spaniards Under Colorado?

r A JUNTA, COLO-The roman
tic days of earliest Colorado
l. history when Spanish explorers
under the intrepid Coronado
roamed this section of the Western
world, penetrating far into the then
unknown lands north of Old Mexico,
combating the Indian hordes that
claimed this land as their own through
rightful Inheritance, were brought
wildly to mind here with the finding
of skeleton in armor, believed to be
the remains of leader of one Of those
ancient bands.
Earl Scarlet and M. O. Davis, two
La Junta boys, made the discovery
when digging under large protruding
rock in clump Of cedars, 1S miles
south of here.
The boys first uncovered a human
skull. Digging further they found in
the depression two bones, evidently
the leg bones Of a man. While the leg
bones are mostly wasted away, the
skull is fairly well preserved, as are
several teeth.
Further digging brought to light
three pieces of shoulder armor such
as was worn by Spanish soldiers in
the Sixteenth century. The armor
plate Is mostly inlaid with ivory.

Parts of an ancient fiint-lock blum
derbuss also were found, so was cop
per gun stock, fairly well preserved. A
spear was uncovered by further
searching and nearby was what APP
peared to be Indian beads and frag-
ments of linen cloth.
In the Sixteenth century, according
to history, party of sixty or more
Spaniards came North from settle
ment at Taos, N NJ, and traversed the
banks of the Picketwire river. Then
the party disappeared from view and
was believed to have been victims of
Nan Indian massacre.
In the historical accounts Of the.
wanderings of Don Vasquez Coronado
is that of an expedition led by him at
the command Of the king of Spain into
the mountain Businesses north of
Mexico, a region then inhabited by In
dams who had never before set eyes
on white man.
Starting from Culiean, Coronado
and his band finally reached the great
plains of the Arkansas and the South
Platte, which he explored east Of the
foot of the Rocky mountains, extend
ing down the South Platte into what
Is now the state Of Nebraska, nearly
to the Missouri river.

friends for seven or eight years. And
one day they slipped off and got mar
ried."
Both Mr.. Mark, Sr., and his son,
Clayton Mark, Jr., declined to tell
where the ceremony was performed
and by whom. The wedding, Mr.. Mark
explained, was kept secret from even
the families for some time, and the
bride, then aged eighteen, and the
groom, who was nineteen, went back
to their respective schools.
In this connection Mr.. Mark issued
formal statement, saying:
"The families Of these young people
have been aware for number of years
of their affection for each other, and
they have visited back and forth in
their respective homes, but the fami-
lies had no thought that they were
considering marriage before school
days were over.
"In romantic boy and girl fashion,
however, they eloped and planned to
keep the marriage secret until they
were out of school They passed the
summer together, are now in England
with their infant son, and will prob
ably remain abroad for several
months.'

THE MASKED ToLLMEN

a S WE wend our way through the
4 : years, the hidden tollmen along
the roads we so boldly travel become
more and more imperious in their de-
mands and fill our journey with
thousand cares and complexities.
What to us was beautiful five or six
years ago has so changed in aspect
and general appearance that we can
find no pleasure in its presence.
AS we leave the old milestones be-
hind we pick up something as we pro-
coed that adds weight to our feet, fall
ing SO gradually upon US that we
scarcely notice 1t, but when for some
reason we would run, possibly to make
haste, we discover that we must stop
while and settle our account with
the masked tollmen.
We try to explain that we are not
In debt, that we have been punctilious
In all our settlements, but when our
account is produced we find that we
have drawn rather heavily, and at our
own risk, on precious physical savings
we imagined were unimpaired.
There is a little blur in our vision,
slight fiutter at the heart and a
manifest Impotence over trifies, SO our
tollmen tell US seriously to pay.
We naturally think it will go easier
with US If we cancel our obligations
gracefully, but as a matter of fact 1t
makes no difference.
For as soon az one debt is paid
we begin to pile up another; we are
never content to live in an atmosphere
where risk of life and health is at a
minimum, or where we can get wholly
away from the humiliating custom Of
making apologies.
We continue to find fault with things
for which we alone are to blame. Our
extravagant habits are continued,
though we know they are taking US to

searching through more than $4,000
prescriptions for glasses until they
found the prescription that enabled
the authorities to fasten the murder
upon Leopold Until the time that

original manuscript and draw

M the Pierpont Morgan library's

Something to Think About

ruin, SO when the tollmen come along
and demand our last dollar, we pay
grudgingly, and often with great deal
Of unnecessary verbal emphasis.
The fact is, even with our protesta-
tons at being robbed during the day
and while we sleep, we are ourselves
the principal culprits. Under the
adroit manipulation Of the tollmen we
have become helpless. They go forth
seeking gold, and In transferring it
from our pockets to theirs they show
us that they know their business better
than we know ours, and that they care
not a whit for the sting of conscience

IT MAYBE took minute, friend, for
you to send wire
A little, too, you had to spend, little

But right across the world it came,
across the plains and hills,
And here it is, and here's your name,
and here the room it fills
With words of love as bright as flame
and sweet as whippoorwills.
1t maybe took a minute, dear, to write
little line,
A letter when grief was near, was
near to me and mine.
But right across the world 1t went,
across the lakes and lands
The little letter that you sent Is here
within our hands
And, oh, how much your message
meant God knows and under
standsi
1t maybe takes minute, men and
women here and there,
To stop little now and then our
happiness to share,
But right across the world 1t goes, q
word, look, smile,

it travels many mile
And helps more hearts than you sup
pose that need 1t all the while
