None but the intimate relatives of the bride and groom were present. The ceremony was performed by Rev, F. Davy, of Sunbury Presbyterian church. Miss BE. Spooner, Elginburg, per formed the duties of bridesmaid, while Robert, brother of the bride, support- od the groom, The Misses Callie Me- Millan and May Pixley were maidsof- honor. The bride was given away by her father, while her sister, Evelyn, played the wedding march. THe pres- ents were numerous and costly. Altes the ceremony the party repaired to the dining room, where an elegant re- past was awaiting them. At the con- clusion of the feast, toasts were pro: posed and responded to. The remaind- vr of the evening was spent in music and games, which were kept up to an early hour when the young couple de- parted, amid a shower of rice, for their future home in Kingston. Wanted, A Boy. The saloon must have boys, or it must shut up shop. Can't you furn- ish it one ? It is a great factory, and unless it can get about 200,000,000 boys from each generation for raw material some of these factories must close out, and its 'operations must be thrown on a cold world, and the public revenue will dwindle. "Wanted, 200,000,000° boys." is the notice. One family out of every five wpust contribute a boy to keep up the supply. Will you help ? Which one of the boys will it be ? Al number of girls will also be required to contdbéte to the revenue to assist the gor dealers in sup- porting their families. ! Are you not selfishly voting to keep the open to grind up the hove and then do nothing to keep up t supply ? re you a father? Have you con tributed 'a boy ? If not, some other 'family Kas had to give more than its share ~COM. x Would Sail The Shamrock I.

Who Died, Led Life Of : Eccentric. Few more interesting "br eccentric characters than Charles Broadway Rouss, who died on Mouday, are to be found in New York business life Starting as a poor hoy, be made and lost several fortunes, and in late years to visitors at his place of busi ness he was wont to exclaim that bi tithe was worth S100 a minute and then 'adk bow much of it his caller wanted, Several years ago Mr. Rouss' eyes from too close attention to business began to fail him, and despite the ex penditure of vast sums of money, it was pot long before he became total ly blind. Mr, Rouss then made an offer of $1,000,000 to any one who could re- store his sight. This made him the subject of offers from all manners of cranks with cures, several of which the millionaire mer chant submitted to, but with no good result, though it was often re ported that his sight had been parti ally restored. A western hypnotist agreed to cure Mr. Rouss oid to prove his powers made arrangements to make a test upon John Martin, a blind man, who at one time before acted as a substi tute for Mr. Rouse and was tortured with needles by a quack. "I am too busy a man," said Mr Rousse, at the time, "to allow myseli to be experimented upon by every one who comes along. That is why | have engaged Mr. Martin as a substi tute. As his affliction is identical with my own, I presume that the man who call restore his sight can do as much for me, "The hypnotist who has been re commended to we has, I am informed cured two Chicago men who had both been blind for several years. 1 hey suf fered from paralysis of the optic nerve which is my trouble, "1 will give 31,000,000 to this hyp notist, or any other man, who will re store my sight. 1 will walk out of my store and hand him the keys, He will be welcome to this ten-story build: ing and everything that is in it. "My sight is now almbst entirely gone, If it were not for your voice l could not tell whether I was talking to a man or woman. The only thing visible to me this moment are thow huge pillars. I can just discern their hazy outlines,"' and Mr. Rouss point ed to the supports directly before him. He was once asked, "What are your pleasures in life 7" "I have none. I used to go home at night on a Grand street horse ear. stood on the rear platform and threw pennies and nickels to the newsboys and bootblacks who used to run along nfter the car. Then the police captain asked me to stop it, and of comrse, I did #0." The millionaire Jooked reflective for a moment. "That was my only pleasure in life," he -- plaintively, "And the police made me give that up." How many men are worth more than $1 a day?" returned the mer- chant. "How many thousands of dol lars are wasted every month by the Hiltons and the Clafline and the Van derbilta and the Huntingtons on use less timber 7 Think of the men who are not worth their salt. Once in a while one of these men comes in here and wants a situation." "What can you do?" 1 asked. "1 got 810,000 a year with Claflin,' he says, proudly. 'I can do any thing.' . "All right," I say, 'T'll give you $1 a day.' He is highly insulted and goes. away. Two or three days later he comes in again, He is not quite so proud, "I'll take your offer, Mr. Rouss,'" he says. 'I'll go to work for a dollar a day and - show you what kind of a man: 1 am." He works one day. That night, when he goes out, the door keeper gives him his dollar and tells him he veedn't come back in the morn- ing. He wants to know the reason. Generally he comes to me, full of in- dignation. 1 tell him the truth. He isn't any use. There are very few men in the world who are worth more than a dollar a day. A dollar is a. good deal of money. 1 don't spend a dollar. a day mysell. "When one of my salesmen can't keep away from John Barleycorn any longer, he goes out and spends all his money, and comes around finally, a wreck physically and mentally and financially. If he is a good mam when he is in his right mind, I'll take him back on his promise to keep straight. He can't have any money, though, un- til he is on his feet again. He sleeps in the store. His meals are brought in to him. When he is in good shape again, be gets his dollar a day." le was eccentric and proud of it. He wore a $12 suit of clothes. Often he slept on an iron bedstead at his store. He was an advocate of phone tic spelling. He did not advertise in the newspapers, but sent out hun: dreds of thousands of copies of a monthly circular and price List called the Monthly Auction Trade Journal. His business was auction dry goods job lots, some people call it. His store was filled with oceans of notions He supplied bargain counters and five and ten cent stores throughout the country. Big dry goods houses that bought from him did not advertise the He employed artists in hard luck to paint pictures for him by the yard. umetimes he set these artists to IS ACEUSED OF SAD CRIME BOY CHARGED WITH MURDER OF MOTHER.

Bir William Meredith, when leader of the Ontario opposition in 18M, made a speech at London in which be referred to the plebiscite taken a short time before, In that speech be indi cated a referendum as the course that ought to be pursued. He said : "If it shall be determined that there is jurisdiction in the local legislature to deal with this question of the liquor traffic, thenis will be the duty of any government which is in power in Ontario to bring in a bill and pass it for the purpose of carrying iuto ef fect what has been determined to be within the qurisdiction of the legisla ture. But it seems to me that any such law gs that should be an effec tive law, and should have no results that would be disastrous to the inter ests of temperance throughout the country. And, therefore, I think that it. would be decidedly in the interests oi the whole community that any mea- sure such as that, before it should be come law, should be again submitted to the people, in order that they should have an opportunity of pro nouncing yea or nay upon it."
