Wooed and Won 1s the concluding chapter of & Tomance which was brought to a close by the marriase of Miss Annie Sisson of Westerly and R. . Moss of Fresno, Cal, at Bakersfield, in the far distant state last Thursday. The wayward Westerly woman made iwo tmmntfinn.t:l u-_i)s‘ o Hagy's man for whom she er hum- ble home in New England and who had advertised himself in a matrimonial paper #s & ranchman with a bunch of! money; but who in reality was none than R.

Subscriptions were subsequently raised and the sadder but wiser girl was sent back here to her home, quite reconciled to her fate. ‘Absencé evidently made the heart grow fonder, for Miss Sission, in spite of the circumstances which she had experienced, returned to her lover in the far west. The ardent lover declares that during the initial trip of the maiden to the | Pacific coast he did not have a ! chance to marry the zirl of his choice, . but that in spite of adverse conditions he remewed his wooing by letter and again induced the young woman to be- come a girl of the golden west. The chapter ends with Moss as the hero of the story of the woman in the case, finally marrying her. Chester W.

In case of disagreeing action between the two bodies of the legislature and the later failure of a committee of conference to agree, Mr. Corttis will hold over to the end of his term in any event.
