A bridal party was seen passing along Parkerson avenue Wednesday which after investigation, proved to be Samuel Fleuitt and Mrs. Lou Fettery. A Signal man got on the track of the party and after some trouble found the party at the Central M. E. church parsonage, where he learned the story of their presence there. Both of the parties are well known down in Vermilion parish. The par ty started from below Gueydan at 6 o'clock this morning and drove as rapidly as possible Wo this city, reach ing here about 10 o'clock. On their way here they encountered many dif ficulties, among which was the sink ing of the bridal cab into several very deep mud holes, and. crossing the treacherous Gueydan bridge. It was a great risk, but the groom showed he was a chevalier of the true blood and braced his feet against the dash board and urged his steeds onward. After reaching town they had some difficulty in locating the right parson age, and after driving down, the avenue and up Third street they were finally, instructed to the proper place. Upon reaching the parsonage they found the Rev. Campbell busily en gaged-making garden. However, this worthy gentleman made r, hasty toilet and was soon ready to perform his duties in this solemn affair. While the groom went out in search of a license, quite a numberof friends dropped in and awaited his arrival that they might witness the ceremony. Rev. Campbell did the honors and they were soon pronounc ed man and and wife.. •They left for their country home immediately affer the ceremoiy. Crowley Signal. Pessimistic Kansan. At the trial of Olga Nethersole, the { actress, in New York, recently, charged with presenting an immoral play called "Sapho," the following witnesses were present: Mrs. Almon Hensley, president of the society for the Study of Life; Miss H, M. Har ris, of the Mothers' club; Mrs. Ame lia M. S. Calkins, of the society for the Study of Life. In addition to these old dames, there were several women doctors present. No one seems to attract much attention now except fools.-Atchison Globe. Anything Goes. It is announced from Utah that the state will proabably go republican this fall, as the Mormons believe it will be to their interest to align them selves with the republican party. If this is the case, n. doubt the next Mormon congressman can go to Wash ington and take all his wives along with him without fear of rebuff. There is nothing sentimental about republican party policy, and they would be likely to line up for their own man no matter how profuse his matrimonial experiences may have been. Scholarship Free.

Wolcott, of Colo rado is again a bachelor, his wife having procured a divorce from hive the other day on the ground of aban donment. It will be observed that none of the long-haired men and short haired women are howling fqr Wolcott to be thrust out of the senate as they did in the gue of RobertS. The lesson of their conduct is that men who desert their wives ought not be blan for it; the. culprits are those w o stand by their marriage -contract. YOUNG LADIES.

According to the statement of the Director of the Mint, Roberts, the coinage of silver dollars at the New Orleans mint will be increased to $4, 000,000 per month when the new flt nancial bill becomes a law.
