A very pretty wedding occured nt the home of Mr. nnd*Mra. W. I>, Kilmore of West Kittitas, Wednes dny evening, April 2. r >, when their daughter Katie was united in the bonds of matrimony with Mr. Wai ter Lowe of Thorp. The wedding was private, none hut the families! heing present. The bride is a charm ing young lady and is a favorite among her many friends. The groom is a well known young man, Holier and industrious and his sterl ing qualities have won for him suc cess wherever he is known. The happy couple will begin housekeep ing on the farm of J). T. Edwards, where Mr. Lowe will be employed this season. The Localizer unites with their many friends in extend ing congratulations and wishes them a long and prosperous voyage, de void of storms and trouble, as they sail down the stream of life. [The above article was taken from a Washington weekly. The groom is a son of Mr. William Lowe of Laporte township, and went to the State of Washington about lour years ago.] There are twenty-live wood alcohol factories in McKean county, repre- I seating an investment of approxi mately $4,500,000, including wood lands, railroads, houses for employes, etc. The investors are fighting thv free alcohol bill on the ground that cheap grain or potato alcohol will knock out the sale of their product to a great extent. The wood from which pyrohgneous acid, or wood alcohol is manufactured has to be cut and seasoned from eighteen months to two years betore using, and it is said that the McKean county manu facturers have nearly a million dol lars tied up in wood alone. The by prouuets of wood alcohol are acetate ol liine and charcoal, each of which now lind profitable markets. Mc- Kean is not the only county that has these factories, but they are scattered all through the country. Thomas McCarthy, a bartender at the Hotel Lincoln, at New Castle, has been toiling hard 12 yours a day for the past six years, blissfully ignorant that he was a millionaire. His brother, Michael McCarthy was working even harder than Thomas, for Michael is foreman of a gang of section hands on the Pittsburg and Lake Erie railroad and lives in a little house in Wampum, just below New Castle. And all these years each has been the possessor ofsl,- 000,000 in his own right and didn't know it, though attorneys have been hunting everywhere for them. Mix years ago their uncle died in Denver, leaving them $1,000,000 each which he had made in the Australia gold fields. A firm of Denver law yers have just succeeded in locating the two men and has forwarded them money to take them to Denver. in Chicago court recently a man who had stolen SBOOO and a boy who had stolen •"> cents were sentenced to a year's imprisonment each. To the boy there must have been a lesson in the episode. This is a common oc curancein every community. The I man who deals in small affairs gets the worst of it. A chicken theif is sent .to the Penitentiary, while the slick robber of thousands goes free. Iftliisis law or equity than human effort todojustice seems mockery. liWhop 11. Is.
