A cattle man with a big roll vvas the victim.

In the seullle Williams got his foot eanglit in a fiog and in his liasto to get away.jerked itout , and in this wav hint his foot. This ac counts lor the limp which liis been no ticeable of late in hi.s walk.

Children Cry Kor II. Yesterday a boy and girl appealed at the county clerk's office , and with the greatest nonchalance asked for a mar- ri.igt1 hccn-e. The appearance of the couple was such that it nearly took away i he bicnth of Clerk Shea. The boy claimed to have reached the age of 17 yeais , and the girl went him one better and said she was 18. They were dics ed in the plainest clothing , by no means tidy , and they looked as far oil'in dress as the'y did in age for candidates fcr matri mony. The boy gave his ago as Mowry and the girl said her name was Hoover anil she lived with her aunt. Her father iiiui mother were dead and she could not very well gel their consent She could get the consent of her aunt , though , The boy said his father was dead , but nis mother would give her consent They weio'cut away with a icquest to bring Ihe necessary permits and this vvas thought to end the matter , but brick llicj came , smiling and blooming , the boy ' liav'ing a note purporting to be signed by his mother , and the girl a like note sign ed bj her aunt. The eleik vvas hard heaited , and still could not , ee his wav clear to grant mariiago licenses to chil dren. Hu leftibcd thih time perempto rily , and the girl tocsed her head con temptuously , while the boy wanted to know why the clerk tlnia stood between them mid bliss. He was infoinied that tonic ichpoiibible and disintereBU.d parti must first come to the ofjicu and file the necessary proofs mid affidavits The Ind and lassie went away < iut at heart Su pervisor Hardin , who stood watching the young couple as they detuned , strength ened the position of llie clerk by ex plaining thai he knew the boy andthu family.
