MicGEE---HENSLEY. ' | A Beautiful Country Wedding, On Tuesday, May Sth, at 8 o'clock p.m. at the home of the bride, Mr. Hugh McGee and Mise Mary Louise Hensley were united in marriage. Promptly at the appointed mo- ment, to the music of the beautiful wedding march, played by Leola Biggs, the party entered the purlor and proceeded to the alter which was of green und white decorations Firat came Master Leslie Tera Nick ell and Mixe Edith Lucile Jackeon, aephew and neice of the bride, who acted as pages carrying pink and white ribbons with which they form- ed an aisle through which the bridal couple marched and advanced be tween the attendants. Then amid the eacred hush Rev. 0. A. Ishmeal, of Pleasanton, Kan., pronounced the brief but beautiful and impres- sive words that for weal or woe for- aver joined two loving lives, and on the union thereby consumated {n- yoked heaven’s choiceat benediction. The bride presented @ very charm- ing appearance as she stood amid the beautiful decorations, attired in spotless white silk made princess style, She carried a boquet of white 20¢08, completing a vision of radiant virgin purity long to be remembered The groom wore the time-honored and conventional suit of black. Immediately following the cere- mony the bridal party entered the dining room where & delicious four eourse Juccheon was served. The dining room decorations consisted of pink and white. After luncheon was served a very pleasant evening was spent. Only the immediate relatives and friends were present. The bride was the recipient of many beautiful and val aable presents. They will spend a few days visiting the parents of the groom after which they will depart for Omaha, Nebr., thelr future home. These young people have many friends who, wish them a long, happy and prosperous married life. | The chairman of the Democratic eonvention of Kansas in his address to the delegates sounded a key note thet will have interessin Massachu- éette and shows that‘a united Demo- eracy from the East to the West and North to the South ie again to bean accomplished fact. ‘The people of Kansas,” said he, ‘‘send this slogan across the Mississippi valley and over the Appalachian mountains to New England. Weare for free raw material, and we are willing to give 40 the laborer of the east free hides in competition with our hides, be- cause the beef trust robs us even of hair, and then sells the balance to eastern manufacturers at a higher and fixed price, so that the poor are eboeless. Our Republican congress- men have misrepresented us long enough. Weare in favor of the old- Jashioned doctrine as enunciated by Samuel J. Tilden and re enunciated by Grover Cleveland of a tariff for revenue only. The time is past when we should protect trusts and capi- talistic combinations. Protection, as declared by the Republican party, fe now used as an aid to therich to become richer and for the poor to become poorer.” Hurrah for the snterrified Democracy of Kaneas! . ——— A Kansas girl graduate who had deen given the theme, ‘Beyond the Alps Lies Italy,” promulgated the following: “I donot care a cent whether Italy lies beyond the Alps orin Missouri.

Philadelphia, May 21.—Ministers were exhorted to take a lesson from the modern newspaper by Bishop Samuel Fallows in a eermon,deliver- ed at the evening session of the gun- eral council of the Reformed Episco- pal church. The Bishop eald that the press in some respects had su- pereeded the pulpit and now exer- cises many of the functions which the pulpit has lost. He said: “The preachers of today can learn many valuable lessong from the of old Mexico, and if {¢ wasn’t for the great body of salt water she would reach to the South pole, She Now Mr. Editor I am truly glad Bates county boys, while I have snuffed the north winds of Missvuri for thirty-nine winters and kissed the sweet breeze of the sunny south pup.

The sermon should have all of these characteristics.” The bishop sald the prees hae been the faithful ally of the pulpit in breaking down caste, in favoring humanitarian reforms and {in advo- cating the rights of all. “When the prayer book was first compiled,” he sald, “journalism had scarcely begun its existence, Hence no mention fs made of editors in the enumerated list of persons needing the prayers of the church. No re- vision ought to be deemed compléte which does not include them, for no St. Lonis Republic, From Cairo, Egypt, Willlam Jen- nings Bryan has written a letter to Colonel M. C.
