RACED FOR A WIFE
Novel Plan of a Georgia Belle to Choose
a Husband.
NINETEEN MILES ON HORSEBACK
Her Suitors Raced for the License
While the Maiden Waited to
Greet the Victor.
Agusta, Ga., June 29. Miss Annie
Story, the beautiful daughter of Colonel
H. F. Story, of Yorkville, had many ad
mirers, but could not decide between
McBrayer and Govan. Finally she
sent for the minister and the two young
men. She told the rivals that the one
who would come back to her first with a
marriage license should be her husband,
both men to leave Yorkville at the same
time and ride to Dallas, the county seat.
The young men were well mounted, and
the distance was 19 miles. The race
was a hot one. McBrayer, the rich
lover, reached the ordinary first and
secured the license before Govan ap
peared. The latter came a moment
afterward and also secured a license.
In a few moments he was
also on his way back to Yorkville.
The race became sharp. Govan was
desperate because his rival was the bet-
mounted. Miss Story, her father
and the minister waited on the piazza
for the racing rivals. McBrayer was
seen first; he was excited, and far down
the road it was noticed that his horse
was nearly exhausted. The race was a
most exciting one, and seemed his. He
was nearing the gate, but in a moment
Govan appeared in a by-path, 200 yards
ahead of Mc Brayer. He first reached
the piazza and won the prize. He
had taken a short cut through the
woods. The ceremony was preformed,
and McBrayer gracefully acknowledged
defeat and joined in the marriage fes
tivities. The Effect in This Country.
Washington, June 28. The Sun says
the talk of radical silver men, since they
have recovered from the first shock of
the news from India, is rather defiant.
While admitting the demonetization in
India is a hard blow at bi-metalism at
the present ratio, they speak of it as a
conspiracy, and insist it is more than
ever important that this country should
stand by silver. They say they intend
to fight with all their might against the
further degradation of silver. The more
conservative men.however, regard this
as whistling against the wind. Their
best judgment is that many who howled
for free coinage because of their constitu
ents, will find in the present situation a
reason for voting the Sherman law off
the statute books, perhaps even without
any sort of a substitute as a compromise.
Purchasing Power the Same.
Washington, June 29. Secretary Car
lisle has received numerous callers,
among whom were many members of
congress. With all these the silver ques
tion formed the principal topic of con
versation, and the continued decline in
the price of silver was naturally referred
to. The secretary had received a cable
gram stating tbe price of silver today in
London was 68o cents per ounce, at
which rate a silver dollar as bullion was
worth 53 cents. Nevertheless the point,
of course, was that tbe apparent pur
chasing power of the silver dollar, with
silver bullion at 68 cents per ounce,
was as great today as when silver was
worth (1.22 per ounce and the bullion
value of silver 93 cents. It should be
equally obvious that this is so because it
is known that the credit of the United
States is behind its silver money, as it is
in all other forms of money, and without
which none of them except gold coin and
gold certificates would be worth par in
the money markets of the world. This
fact was several times emphasized at the
last session of congress when ex-Secretary
Sherman and others repeatedly de
clared during the senate debates that
there was in the treasury bullion in gold
to the value of every silver certificate
issued by the government.
Laying In Supplies.
Charleston, S. C, June 29. A most
peculiar state of affairs exists in Charles
ton today. For 20 days or more the
liquor dealers have been selling out their
stock of wines and liquors to get rid of
them before July 1st, when the state en
ters into a monopoly of the liquor busi
ness. It is settled that there is to be no
state dispensary for the sale of liquor in
Charleston, and the people have there
fore been preparing for a new state of
things. Many thousands of gallons of
liquors have been sold. So great has
been the demand that the roads have
been taxed to transport liquors to the
city, the present stock having been long
into effect at midnight on June 30th
there will be few people in Charleston
who are not provided with at least a six
months' supply of liquor. This is the
limit which is generally set for the law
to last. All the swell clubs have agreed
to obey the law. There is one large
brewery in the city. This will probably
close on July 1st. More than 200 places
of business, saloons, restaurants and
wholesale liquor houses will be closed
and several thousand employes will be
out of work.
THE EPWORTH LEAGUE.
Elrst International Conference Now In
Session.
Cleveland, June 29. This city, in
which the Epworth League was founded,
is overrun with delegates to the first in
ternational conference of that organiza
tion, to last three days. It is expected
10,000 will be present before the close.
The accommodations of the city, public
and private, will be taxed to the utmost
to entertain them. The first session
was called to order at 2 o'clock this
afternoon by William Day, of the com
mittee of arrangements. It was wel
comed by Mayoi Blee and Governor Mc-
Kinley, and responses were made by
Bishop Wilson, of the Methodist church,
South; Dr. Carman, general superin
tendent of the Methodist church of
Canada ; and Bishop Fitzgerald, of the
Methodist church. A recess was taken
till 7 p. m., when H. V. Holt, president
of the Illinois State League, will lead
the praise service, followed by a sermon
by Bishop Chas. H. Fowler and an ad
dress by Rev. A. E. Schell, general sec
retary of the the league.
Approved by the Press.
Bombay, June 28. The newspapers
generally approve the action on the silver
question, but express a hope that the
government will compensate the banks,
the holdings of which are largely silver.
It is stated that the banks intend to
raise the legal question as to whether
the telegraphic intimation of the change
in the law is sufficient to change the law
and to justify the mints in refusing the
silver tendered them Monday.
Statue to the Queen.
London, June 28. A statue of the
queen, the work of Princess .Beatrice;,
her majesty's youngest daughter, was
unveiled in Kensington Gardens today
by the queen in person, in the presence
of a concourse of prominent people. The
Duke of York, who is not in the best of
health, was absent.
Union Pacific to the Rescue.
Boston, June 29. The Union Pacific
announces that it will today anticipate
the payment of July interest. This in
cludes all companies in the Union
Pacific system. The payments will
amount to $2,000,000.
BBAEEMAN FATALLY SHOT.
He Attempted to Put Off a Tramp From
a Passenger Train.
The officials of the Southern Pacific
Railroad Company in Portland were in
formed yesterday that James T. Bruce, a
brakeman on the Oregon & California
express train bad been mortally
wounded at Gold Run, Placer county,
Cal., by a tramp. Wednesday morning
several tramps were stealing a ride on
top of one of the cars, and Bruce, acting
under instructions, tried to get them off.
While having a slight conflict with
them, one drew a revolver and fired,
the shot taking effect in Bruce's body.
It was dark at the time, and the
tramp, realizing what had happened,
climbed off the , cars and escaped,
making his way to the hills near
by. Bruce ' was unable to give an
accurate description of the man who did
the shooting, but managed to explain
that he was tall and dressed in a dark
suit. Officers at once started in a pur
suit of the murderer, and it is supposed
that he is making his way north.
The Southern Pacific has offered a re
ward of $300 for information that will
lead to the arrest and conviction of the
man who fired the fatal shot. Ore-

The Webs Which Washington Shysters

There are plenty of shysters and ahjt
locks in the world who are perpetually
laying traps to ensnare the unsuspecting,

Never let a stranger who is abnormally
anxious to assist you, get hold of your

Never bet on another man's game.
Mr. C. D. Doyle of Dufur was shrewd

Senator Mitchell. Following are both
letters : A careful perusal may save

Washington, D. C, June 12, 1892.
C. D. Doyle, Esq.
Deab Sib We again address you rel
ative to your claim for repayment of
$1.25 per acre, arising from the forfeiture
of the Northern Pacific grant from Wal
lula to Portland. We are certain that
we can collect this amount for you by
suit in the court of claims and as the
claim is already old we urge you to send
on the necessary authority without fur
ther delay. We have found a way
around the statute of limitations, but
further delay will prejudice your case.
We understand that there is an idea
among those interested that congress
will voluntarily make these repayments
and that there is no necessity for em
ploying an attorney. Being on the
ground and familiar with congressional
matters we know that such a thing 1b
impossible; and we are willing to take
your claim with the understanding that
should a bill be passed before we have
secured final judgment in your favor we
are to receive no fee whatever. As pay
ment is always made by draft to order of
claimant you have the whole matter in
your hands. Our fee will be 25 per cent,
strictly contingent, and we will pay all
the expenses. Very respectfully,
Habvey Spaulding & Sons.

can collect from the government $1.25

grant to the Northern Pacific company,
unless congress first passes some law
authorizing it.
Should you give Messrs. Spaulding &
Sons any authority whatever in tb"
matter, you had better retain for future
reference their letter of June 12th, which
I return to you. Very Respectfully,

The blood In whose veins course healthy and

With the vigor of youth in her movments of

Oh, that is the maiden ior me!
She is the girl to "tie to" for life.
