Al bert's residence, and attempted to ford tho creek below tho brldgo ns usual, but before driving In he re quested his little daughter to cross on tho bridge afoot, which c I renin stance probably saved tho lives of both Mr. King and the lady with him. Tho creek had greatly raised during tho day, and before Mr. King realized it his team was beyond Its dcptli and unmanageable. Thollttlo girl hastily called O. II. Fay, who lives near by, and that gentleman with his son brought a lantern and lubuuca the team and hack and Its occupants from their unpleasant predicament. Banker Kills Himself-Other News of the Day. New York.Jed. 1. Miss Ella Colin exchanged her simple lot as the daughter of Peter Colin, a tailor, for that of a queen who will rule over a sovereignty of nearly 30,000 souls. Her right to this title and power came with her marriage to Colonel John Fletcher Hobbs, king of the cannibal Islands of Illlka. Society,, which should have done honor to an event so unprecedented, as that of a royal wcdalng, was not much in cyldcnce,for oumalca or king Is a domestic sovereign, and the Collns are unprotcntlnus. Instead of his picturesque costume as king of the cannibal Islands of Illlka, which some of the bride's friends hoped he wear, the oumalca wore evening dress. When Rev. Mr. Stope made the couple Mr. and Mrs. John P. Hobbs, the king proclaimed his wife queen in the Illlkan language, which for the edification of the bride and guests was transated as ''I Take you, Mealle, to my royal house and make you queen of my throne of women." Mcallo means, "My sweet 6oothlng spirit forever all over the world." The royal couple will shortly leave for the king's American home near Newberg, S. C, where he was born 30 years ago aud where ho has lived the major part of his life plain John Hobbs. A Decided Nuisance.
