Mrs. Ida Gosnell, a widow of 38, was to have married John C. Dorer, nine years her junior, and arrangements had been perfected for a wedding at the home of Mr. Oler, a mutual friend. ( The guests attended, and, with the minister, awaited the coming of the bridal pair. Mr. Dorer was on time, but the bride-to-be did not come. Messengers dispatched to her bouse came back with the information that the widow had changed her mind. Those present were not to be cheat ed in this .way. . The refreshments had arrived, and it was decided to go on with the reception. So they did, when Mr. Dorer de cided to marry a Miss Higgins, and proposed before the company dis persed. He was accepted. This settled, it was up to Mr. Dorer to secure another license. Taking the one he had, he waited at the door of the courthouse until the clem arrived. He wanted the names changed, but this could not be done, so he got an other. Mr. Dorer and Miss Higgins went to the parsonage of the Starr Method ist church and were married by the pastor, Rev. G. W. Haddaway. Mr. Oler acted as best man, and Miss Alice Cassell was bridesmaid. Upon returning to the home of Mr. Oler the wedding party entered upon another reception. Mrs. Dorer is only 18 years of age, and the bridegroom says he is very well satisfied with the change. FLYING SNAKE IN VIRGINIA. Reptile with Wings, That Fed on Birds, Is Killed in King George. " Comorn, Va. A most remarkable and uncommon "flying snake" that was cap tured and killed at "Berry plain," the home of John S. Dickinson, in this county, a few days ago, has attracted wide attention. The curious reptile was first noticed flying about in the air, presenting the appearance of an ordinary snake at tached to a strange looking bird. As far as is known, it never once descended to the earth and crawled on the ground after the manner of snakes, but it would occasionally alight in trees and catch such birds as best suit ed its fancy. It was finally killed and- proved to be five feet long and about, one inch in diameter of body. It had Wings . of good size, covered with feathers. "Berry plain," where the curious thing made its advent ari'd met its un timely end, is one of the finest planta tions in King George bsing' situated on the banks of the Rappahannock.' It 5s conjectured by some that the "fly ing snake" may have come from an impenetrable marsh of the. river or some neighboring creek. . But thi3 theory is not accepted by many, for, as far as can be learned, nothing bearing a similarity to this ?erpent was ever before seen or heard, of anywhere in this section of x the country. . SHE DANCES' 12 HOURS. Bride Wins $235 by Her Endurance in the Giddy Whirl for Half a Day. Sharon, Pa. Paula Walliski, a pretty Polish maiden, was married recently to Joe Spurski. At all Polish weddings it is a custom for the bride to dance with ail the male guests, and every time a guest is thus favored he throws a piece of silver money into a plate which stands in the center of the room. The amount of money thus contributed to the bride depends entirely upon the en durance cf the bride. Paula is a husky young woman, and she started with the first dance at noon. Around the. room she was whirled time Vm r.?.iT!. r-.l-TrV.Ii r rc !.e 'aekels dropped on 'the plate. Supper lime came, hut the bride did not stop for ths meal, and continued to dance. Nine o'clock came, when the wedding repast was served, but still Paula was too busydancing and making money. At midnight she dropped to the floor exhausted, ' Then the money was count ed, and it was found that the" bride had danced herself into the possession of $235. CUPID ROUTS "BACH". GIRLS Club Disrupted by Little Archer and Sixteen Marriages Are Then ' Booked. V- Buffalo, N. Y. Sixteen young wom en, members of the 1 Bachelor Girls' club, claiming Corry, Pa'., as their home, arrived in Buffalo for a whole sale marriage at the Robinson hotel. Their ages range from 24 to 28 years. In 1900 they organized the Bachelor Girls' club and each took an oath not to marry as long as the ortpiizatiori was in e:ritence. It is under tiod they have fallen one by one bnf ire Cupid's army, and that they deeded to become brides in a bunch, which arrangement was agreed to by their suitors. The young women arrived in Buf falo and there were married. Marry on Merry-Go-Rouitd. In St. Louis a few days ago a man ind a woman were married on a merry- go-round while it was in operation.

Philadelphia. Following the poison ing of several valuable dogs in Ardmore recently comes the discovery that some unknown culprit had been going about pulling the teeth of blooded canines. What, object anyone could possibly have in pulling dogs' teeth or for what pur-t pose they are wanted are questions that threaten to give residents brain fatigue. The most plasuible reason suggested so far is that some father whose child has suffered from the fangs of a dog, or some man who has himself been bitten, is acting as canine tooth' extractor out of revenge. The first dog to fall victim to the tooth puller was a white poodle, valued, at ?100, owned by a resident of South Ardmore. The dog, aside from its value and beauty, was master of many clever tricks, some of which were performed with the aid of its mouth and teeth. One day the dog, which had been away from home during the morning, appeared at the back door of the Moylau cottage whining piteously, A servant who opened the door noticed that there was something strange about the dog, and that it did not appear as lively as usual. 1 Thinking, that it was suffering from the heat, the servant let the canine go unnoticed until after lunch. Then a hone was thrown to the dog, and, in stead of catching it in its teeth and scam pering off, as it usually did, the animal walked up to. here the bone lay, give a Yew sniffs, and ran off whining. In the evening the owner was informed of the strange actions of the dog, and upon making an investigation he dis covered that every tooth had disap peared from the animal's mouth. The belief that some strange disease had stricken the canine and caused the testh to fall out kept the dog's owner ;m making his discovery known to his neighbors. He decided, however, to seek the advice of a veterinary physi cian, when he found that there were ther dogs that were minus their teeth. having lost them as mysteriously as had his own. . It was discovered through the visit of a friend that three other valuable and blooded dogs had fallen victims of the tooth puller. The dogs were owned by residents of South Ardmore. The dogs were collies, and every tooth had been pulled. Many residents believe that a dental student is responsible for the pulling ci the dogs' teeth, but the owners of the canines are not satisfied at this e:; rJlanatica, and teliave that tt:r3 lis a deep mystery around the strange case. STATE IS SHORT OF WOMEN Last Census Shows Forty-Six Thou sand Surplus of Slen in Iowa. Sioux City, la.

' It is believed the figures com piled by the census director account for the shortage in school-teachers. . Out of the 62 counties whose census has been compiled but two show, a larger number of women than mien. These ace Floyd and Des Moines. What women have seen in either county to in duce them to bestow their presence more generously is not revealed by the hard, cold and sometimes brutal census cards. ; But the disproportion is not at all alarming in either county, as in Des Moines there are but 96 more females than males, and in Floyd but 42. v Appanoose, Sioux and Kossuth coun ties may prepare for an influx of spin;.! .sters as soon as the facts 'become known. In Sioux county there are 1.333 more men than women. In Appanoose 1,224, and in Kossuth 959. The entire census-taking bureau has marveled greatly at these figures. Wright county- is practically in the same class, with 900 more men than women; Marshall county has 800 more, and Harrison, Lyon and Crawford counties each have 700 more. " Audubon, Buena Vista, Emmett, Clay, Hamilton. O'Brien and Pocahontas each has 600 more. Dallas, Crawford. Ida, .Mont gomery, Ringold aud Sac each have EQO surplus men. It is noteworthy that -e rural districts . show the-greater dis parity, and that in the cities the women outnumber the men. Thus it appears women dislike farm life. High Jumping Hog. -A jumping hog afforded much amuse ment In the hog yards at the Kansas City stock yards the other morning. Although the animal weighed' 180 pounds, it would jump board fences five feet high. The speculator who bought the hog found it impossible to confine it to a pen, so the pen had to be covered with boards. , According to men who have been at the hog yards for years this was the first hog that had ever leaped a fence there. - The Kind You Have Always w use ior oyer su years, M All Counterfeits, Imitations and" Just-as-good "are but Experiments that trifle with and endanger the health of Infants and Clxildren Experience against Experiment , What is CASTORIA Castoria is .a harmless substitute for Castor Oil, Pare goric, Drops and-Soothing Syrups.
