Hoy and Miss Maggie Bragg, both of Gradyville, were quietly married in Columbia, the ceremony being said by Rev. O. P. Bush, pastor of the Baptist Church, at his residence. It was the intention of the couple and the witnesses to keep the affair a secret, but it leaked out last Wednesday morning, and in a very short time it was generally known on the streets. The morning after the marriage Mrs. Hoy went to Louisville where she selected a line of millinery for Jamestown, where she has been engaged to run a store this season. The bride is a .popular young woman, who has the best wishes of her many friends. The groom, as we understand, conducts a drug store at Gradyville. Notice to Trustees. An Enjoyable Affair.

Last Thursday a terific cyclone swept parts of Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, killing a number of persons and the damage to property running into millions. At Lexington. Terin.. the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. V. Denver was demol ished. Mrs. Denver was Miss Nina Marcum. dausrhter of Mrs. M. E. Mar- cum, this place, and she and ber mother-in-law barely escaped with their lives. The storm struck Lexington about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Denver being at his store down town, his mother and wife being the only persons at home. They saw the storm coming and escaped from the building just in time to keep from being killed, but were The frightened beyond description. fear and anxiety of the husband and son were horrible as he could not reach the scene until the storm had calmed. Besides the Denver home there were fifty-si- x other residences destroyed in town. the Mrs. Denver writes her mother that she is thankful that their lives were saved; that they have not yet formulated plans, but that they would probably move into a flat for the present. Their dwelling was new completed last year and it was a cozy home. .Much sympathy is felt here. Dallas Texas Lady Dies. Montgomery, Goodin, Coffey.

Bryant and Young also prayer and a scripture lesson was read. Then they all took leave for their respective homes expressing their wishes that Mrs. Hurt would witness many more happy birthdays'. A Friend. A Card. Mrs. Elizabeth E. Wheat, aged SO years, widow of the late C. M. Wheat, died yesterday at her home, 622 North Carroll Avenue. The funeral, which will be private, will be from the residence to Oakland Cemetery, at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Mrs. Wheat was born at Columbia, Adair County, Kentucky, October 19, 1834 She came to Texas with her husband forty years ago and located in Dallas, where she resided continuously until her death. She is survived by four sons Cornet, Harry, Frank andRue Wheat of Dallas, and two daughters, Mrs. 0. W. Williams of Fort Stockton, Texas, and Mrs. E. R. Holland, of San Antonio. A Dallas, Texas paper contained the above item, the death mentioned having occurred recently. Mrs. Wheat was a daughter of Judge Eli Wheat who for many years of bis life was a prominent citizen of Columbia, and at one time was County Judge. To the people of Adair County: I am informed that in some sections of the county there is an impression or report that lam in favor of the county issuing Bonds to make roads. I don't know whether this originated in some ones imagination or whether it is beiugintentionally done to create a prejudice againt me. Let this be as ifc may it isentirely without foundation. Should this question come before the people I would vote against it. Adair county is practically out of debt, her citizens are in a prosperous condition. Should a majority of the people decide at any time that it would be to the best interest of the county to make an expenditure of money for any public purpose the county would be able to do this without issuing bonds or borrowing money and having to pay out yearly a large sum for interest. So far as I know or have heard there is no probability that any effort will be made to bring the question of bonds before the people for a vote. If my friends throughout the county, will so far as they are able, see that I am not misrepresented in this matter, I will appreciate it. Very respectfully, N. M. Hancock, Cane Valley, Ky.

Same with us, says the editor of the Crystal Falls, Mich., Drill. If the fool critic who huntrs for mistakes in the papers would find them all he would be kept busy. We will be pleased to buy copies of any papr which can be proven entirely free from errors, either typographical or in statement of fact. We will be pleased to find a merchant who never made a mistake in putting up an order; a lawyer who never lost a case through his own error, a doctor who never made a mistake, a postoffice official who never put mail into the wrong box, a woman who never forgot to put in salt while cooking or to put tea in the teapot before putting in the water.

Nine times out of ten, you will find it is all the child needs, for its restlessness and peevishness are perhaps due to obstruction of the bowels, and once that has been remedied the headache, the sluggishness and the many other evidences of constipation and indigestion will quickly disappear.

The boiling of an egg seems a simple matter, but many a breakfast has been spoiled and many a temper rasped by the cook's failing to observe the precise number of minutes the process should occupy. That very original man, John Randolph, is said to have invented a metb od of getting his eggs cooked exactly to his taste that worked perfectly. As is the case in many country homes in the south, the kitchen was in a separate building at some distance from the house, and servants were plenty. When the "sage of Roanoke" took his seat at the breakfast table there was a line of servants from the dinin? room to the kitchen. Mrs. Randolph, the mother of the statesman, held an open watch in her hand. "In!" exclaimed Mr. Randolph, and the word "in" was passed from mouth to mouth until it reached the waiting cook, who dropped the eggs into the WEEKLY COURIER PNEUMONIA left me with a frightful cough and very weak.

New York Press. The Bankers Trust Company, of New York, seems to be inviting a decision by the court that its action with refference to the marriage of its clerks is against public .policy. Its directors have just adopted a rule that a clerk receiving less than $100 a month will be dismissed and forfeit the right to share in the company's pension if he takes for himself a wife. The directors claim that this was not to protect themselves, but to safeguard the employes against the disaster likely to follow an attempt to support a family on an insufficient salary. The clerks will doubtless regard it, however, as indefensible meddling in their private affairs of which they will themselves be the better judges. That there are many young people who give little thought when they marry to supporting a family is evident, but as the matter has not been attempted to be regulated by law it is doubtful if trust companies can succeed in doing so. Love defies parents and- locksmiths, and it will likely defy those guardians of matters which seem not to concern them. Thay may lose clerks, but they won't materially decrease the marriage rate. W.

"At last, after many narrow escapes from complete swamping, the fishermen got into action. All hands tailed on to the anchor and hove it up.

I unlaced my ?hoes, unbuttoned my greatcoat and co&t and was ready to make a quick partial strip a minute or so before we struck. But we didn't strike, and as we rushed in I saw the beauty of the situation. Before us opened a narrow channel, frilled at its mouth with breaking seas.
