A very pretty wedding occurred on
Wednesday evening at this home of Mr.
rind Sirs. J'.alpli Robinson, on Susque
hanna avenue, when their only daugh
ter, Isabella, was married to John Pyne.
The ceremony took plaeo at 8 o'clock
in the presence of about one hundred
mid fifty guests. The nuptial knot was
tied by Ilov. Itobert R. Thompson, pas
tor of the Raptlst church, uf which the
bride was a mornhsr. 'William Pyne,
brother of tilt groom, acted as best
man and his wife was bridesmaid. In
keeping with the wedding march, play
ed by Mrs. Kent Jones, the bridal par
ty entered the parlor, the groom and
liest man preceding and followed by the
bridesmaid and then the brldo leaning
on the nrm of her father. As the
words which made them man and wife
vreie pronounced "O Promise Mo" was
played by Mrs. Jones on the organ.
The house vns very prettily decorated
with running pine and after the cere

Kithlng of ureat value was taken by
them at either time. It would undoubt
edly be a good thing for the? thieves
.1f they would go Into churches more
but at times when dlvim; services are
lield. They arc certainly In need of
'religious Instruction and worthy mis
sionary Mibjects. The pastors and peo
ple of all the churches extend a hearty
welcome to these ramblers of the night
to come within their churches when
stated services are being held, and will
endeavor to bring about a reformation
within their lives that mav save them
from less ye.nrs of life behind prison
bars than now awaits thorn in their
present cours".

BUNCOERS ABHOAD : BEWARE !
It is tho trick tf the Bryanlzcd De
mocracy this fall to make false
charges against Republican methods,
raise a big dust, hire Republican mal
contents to organize Republican bolts
and then coax Individual Republicans
to desert their party on the represen
tation that "party tics needn't count
for anything in an off year." By this
trick, if it shall work, the Bryanltes
will get a footho'.d for a hopeful light
In national campaigns, and make Just
so much more trouble for McKinley,
tho Repi.1 Hcan congress and the cause
of sound nrorey.
You now seo through this trick. Aro

A Narrative, the Perusal of Which Will
Help to Reconcile Americans
lo America.
From tho New York Sun.
Here Is tho story of a European hap
pening which Illustrates many features
of life on the continent. It illustrates
most notably the great gulf fixed be
tween the prince and the merchant and
between the nobility and the bour
geoisie. It Illustrates also the emascu
lating Influence of continental custom
and tradition upon the manhood of the
husband and tho brother, laming their
arms and blunting their sense of shame
against the Insults that come from
titled sources.
Prince Fasula-Mlrsa was a lieuten
ant In the Forty-third Russian dra
goons, stationed at Twer. Last month
he went on his summer furlough with
Count Sheremeteff. Thc'y rode a little
and drank a little, and eventually took
a train at Patlgorsk to continue their
spree In a largo town at the other
end of tho line. They entered a first
class compartment, in which they
found a young merchant and his at
tractive wife. The Prince threw kisses
at tho young wife, kissed her hand, and
made as if to embrace her. She shrank
away toward her husband, and the
Prince desisted. The Count and the
prince had some Jesting conversation
as regarded the young woman's olllsli
ness. They fell to betting on the size
of her ankle. Tho prince dived down
and grasped her foot, pulled away her
skirts, and tried to take the measure
of her ankle. The train was drawing
Into a station at this stage of the
princely diversion. The husband had
made no effort to protect his wife, for
ho had heard the prince addressed as
"the serene," and apparently felt help
less in such on august presence. But
the young woman was not ready to
offer herself up In public to a Prince's
pleasure, and screaming and weeping
she pushed open the compartment door.
The conductor of the train came. She
told him of her experience. The sta
tion master was called. The Prince
laughed and showed his card, and
called the group at the compartment
door canaille. Eventually the conductor
declared he could do nothing except
give the merchant and his wife seats In
another compartment. This ho did. He
was punished, however, for depriving
the Prince of his amusement. The
Prince seized him by tho collar, shook
him, waved his drawn sword over him,
and called him an impertinent dog.
OTHER VICTIMS.
Before the train started tho prince
and count moved into another first
class compartment. Thare they found
a Muscovite school teacher named Ge
vashoff and his wife. Mrs. Gevashoff
was neither young nor nretty, as was
the merchant's wife, but as a woman
of the bouregeolsle she was regarded
as good game for the nobility, and all
the Insults and familiarity that had
been tried In the othr compartment
were repeated by the prince and the
count. Mr. Gevashoff began to protest,
but one view of "the serene" one's card
calmed him, so that he allowed his wife
to be insulted and handled without
making further protest.
At the next station, Ossentukl, Mrs;
Gevashoff appeared at ths compartment
window crying for help. The station
ollleials, train guards, and the general
public gathered at the compartment
door, heard her story, and tried to re
dress her wrong, but promptly yielded
to that magic card of "tin? serene ruf
fian, reinforced by the created card of
the Count of Sheremeteff.
There was a delay of twenty-five min
utes. The train was held while the po
lios were consulted. Tho chief of po
lice approached the august persons
who had caused all the trouble. Tho
prince drew his sword and shouted:
"Back, back, canullle! Back or I will
hew you down."
The upshot ot the scrimmage was
that the second pair of the prince's
victims had to follow this example of
the first pair: they fled to another
coupe and locked the door behind them
so as to keep the two titled rowdies out.
Then tho tra.ln started on. At the next
station the count embraced a waiting
passenger's wife and kissed h'er. When
the husband called to him to htop the
count drew a short driving whip from
his cavalry boot and cut the husband
over the cheek with it. The prlnco dis
played his card, and the indignant
populao?, suddenly humbled, slunk into
the background once more.
It Is not necessary to follojj; tliUs
precious pair step by step from uie be
ginning of the trip to tho terminus of
the road; tho rest of the Journey was
Uko the part already described. Two
or three more wives wero insulted, but
no husband's hand was raised to
avenge them. However, the prince
came to grief, despite all his "serenity"
and titles and exalted associations at
court. His conduct was complained of
In St. Petersburg. Tho war depart
ment sent out an order for a court
martial. The court-martial wnos held
and, like most other Russian th'lngs
ordered from St. PJtersburg. it was no
Joke or mere formality. Tho prince
was found guilty; ho was deprived ot
his commission, and ho won degraded
to tho rank of a private soldier. Simi
lar punishment was meted out to the
count. Thus tlis husbands who al
lowed their wives to bo handled and
Insulted und terrified by a stranger,
merely Wcatiso ho boro the title of a
'prince have their revenge at last, such
as It is. Of course-it might have been
less satisfactory than. this. In Ger
many, for Instance, a mere count or
baron after such a debauch often gets
nothing more than a transfer to an
other garrison,

good digestion, robust health. Impure
blood means scrofula, dyspepsia, rheuma
tism, catarrh or other diseases. The surest
way to have good blood is to take Hood's
Barsaparilla. This medicine purifies, vi
talizes, and enriches the blood, and sends
the elements ot health and strength to
every nerve, organ and tissue. It creates
a good appetite, gives refreshing sleep
and cures that tired feeling. Remember,

DAVIDOW,
Out of the Jaws of Death
in a realm of health and happiness; that is how it feels to
have your Teeth in good condition.
The entire human system is more dependent on tha
teeth than most people are aware. The proper mastication
of the food is the keynote of relief from a host of ills. With
decayed or painful teeth this is impossible, without teeth
difficult. The quality of our work is almost too well known
to need a word. G. E. HIL.L-.

the saving of money, when this can be accomplished without any
sacrifice of quality or appearance. That is the chief reason
Why Kerr's Carpets
Are first in popular favor. These are times when few people can afford
to take chances. Others may talk low prices, fine stocks, etc., but our
indisputable claim as leaders in the local Carpet and Drapery trade re
mains unshaken. Our stock never was better than it is now, and not
withstanding high tariffs, prices never were lower. With these facta

Don't You Think It Is
A good time to buy now, even if it should be as an investment fot
