To Ihem the law of the state which would quickly settle the question Is of comparatively little Importance Thpv are onlv Interested whether Sam uel Oren or Jacob Goldberg ought to be recognized as the husband of Marie Hoy- pen. On file night of October 12.

Instantly there was confusion In the synagogue. Goldberg's friends declared that Marie was, now a married woman and the ceremony with Oren must not proceed further. Marie nerseir aaaneu her wealth to the ground and dramatic ally exclaimed: "Samuel, I cannot marry you now, for I am Jacob Goldberg's wife according to the law of our faith. Oren's friends, on the other hand, de rlared that Goldberg had not properly pronounced the formula and that there had been no marriage. The bride's father took sides with Oren, and Insisted that the marriage ceremony be continued. The argument, was carried on vigorously for several hours. Papa Koypen finally car ried his point 'and Marie, on the verge of collapse from the excitement, was duly married to Samuel Oren. Then there was the delayed feast, un attended by Goldberg and his friends. which lasted until the first rays of the morning sun. HUSBAND I.OSE8 BRIDE. The bride and bridegroom took an early walk. On the way Marie asked Samuel to go to her cousin's home for her clothes. The obliging Samuel consented, and then and there lost his bride, for Marie hur rled off to Goldberg and the pair eloped to Boston, where, according to stories told upon their return, they spent a de lightful honeymoon. 1 It was finally decided by both sides to submit the matter for final decision to a commission, Marie agreeing meanwhile to live apart from Jacob. The committee, after wwiaerlns - the matter for several weeks, finally declared that the nut was too hard for them to crack and decided to. submit all the evi dence taken td the 80 orthodox rabbis In the United States and abide by the decis ion of the majority, according to the vote by mall for which they are now waiting.

A Cheese Factory That Pays Well Treasurer of the Glenwood Concern Is a Visitor in the City. A. C. Young, tre&surer of the Glenwood Cheese Factory, Is in the city. The fao tory Is situated about eight miles north east of Vancouver, anil has been In opera tion almost three years. It Is a co-operative concern, and was established by a number of farmers In that vicinity who put but small capital Into the enterprise. It was mere of an experiment with them than anything else,' but the venture proved a paying propo sition from the start. Mr. Young says that the business began to expand soon after the factory was well under way. and that Its proprietors are supplying- Portland, the Sound cities and Spokane with a fine grade of cheese, and the de mand for the product exceeds the supply. A 3UG OUTPUT. At this season of the year the output Is about six tons per month, but during the Summer and early Fall months, in he neighborhood of 15 tons are put on the market every 30. days. Were It pos sible to secure more milk the mutput would be correspondingly Increased. Since the opening of the factory the farmers have been adding in a substantial man ner to their yearly receipts. KCHOES FROM TRACY. Mr. Young revived Interest In the Tracy story by stating that the notori ous bandit camped over night on his farm last Summer while attempting to make his escape from the posse which was In pursuit. He does not believe that It increases the Value of his broad acres, but he treasures the Incident up in his memory like a happy dream. He got u glimpse of the daring fugitive the fol- owing morning, but was not aware of his Identity until the following day. Leav- ng his place. Tracy and Merrill stopped at the house of one of his near neigh bors, and took breakfast. This was at Fourth Plain," and the name of their host was John Leady. He Is an old man, and after appropriating all his clothing they left him bound and gagged. After suf fering untold tortures for about 24 hours he was released by a neighbor. DEATH WARRANT SIGNED.

ROCKEFELLER TO OUTDO CARNEGIE Will Give Millions to Endow An other Educational Institution. WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-John D. Rockefeller Is the moving spirit behind s bill for the incorporation of a general educational board, which has passed both, houses of Congress. It Is expected to be Mr. Rockefeller's purpose, acting In concert with a number of other multi millionaires, to launch a movement . tn the Interest of popular education that will surpass. In the magnitude of its endow ments at least, Mr. Carnegie's institution, to which the ironmaster donated $10,003,0001 , Senator Aldrlch. who Introduced the bin Incorporating the, general education beard. admitted that it was Mr. Rockefeller's purpose to make a munificent gift to the cause of general education, which would be placed at. the disposal of the board, but he said he was not at liberty to dis close -further the Standard Oil King's plans. It 1 known, however, that Mr. Rockefeller will donate a sum equal to or greater than that which Mr. Carnegie contributed to the Institution which bears his name and that he has pledges from other millionaires which will Increase the total endowment to at least $25,000,000.

LOUISVILLE, Dc 17 -Henry Watter son has again made a savage attack on Orover Cleveland, and declares his belief that the ex-President is seeking another four years' term as the nation's chief executive. In an article in the Courier Journal, Watterson says: "Absurd as a fourth presidential nomi nation on the part of Mr. -Cleveland may seem to ordinary minds, the idea conveys no Incongruity or extravagance to the mind of Mr. Cleveland himself nor to the little clump of followers In the mug wump contingent he has ever about him. "If the Democracy is to get on Its feet, to put itself in fighting condition and to recover Its lost prestige. It will not be In the person and through the agency of a man who has not only wrecked It, but who, assuming his own superiority, habit ually sets himself up as a law unto him self, the only original Jacob, as it were, at once ' a life-long dissembler and a chronic candidate for office; but. In the wisdom of God and It may be in the full ness of time, it will come again with the constitution In one hand and the Jeffer-sonlan- philosophy in the other hand, the flag of the Republic of Washington and Franklin above It, preaching the gospel of the greatest good to the greatest num ber; the gospel of equal rights to all, ex clusive privileges to none; the gospel of expansion on free not despotic lines."
