Feminine Jurist Makes It a Rule to
Omit the Word "Obey" from
Nuptial Ritual.
Beloit, Kan.—So popular liave be
come the marriage ceremonics per
formed by Probate Judge Mary H.
Cooper, who, by the way, is the only
woman probate judpe in the United
States, so far as known, that it liaa
become almost a fad in .Mitchell coun
ty for young women to insert the pro
viso that Judge Cooper shall officiate
before they biushingly say "yes" to
the pleadings of would-be benedicts.
Judge Cooper's popularity has come
about through the omission of the
word "obey" when tying the nuptial
knot.
"I attribute the great increase of
marriages in this office," explained
Judge Cooper the other day, "to an
effort on my part to get away from
the hackneyed, machine-like way in
which civil ceremonies are generally
performed.
"I attempt to make the ceremonies
as impressive as 1 know how. Should
a giggling pair come before mo, they
are severely reproved and made to
understand that being joined in wed
lock is a most serious affair and not
to bo taken lightly."
"Is your service different than most
of the others?"
"Yes, I bolieve it differs slightly.
For instance, I bave eliminated the
•word 'obey' for the bride.
"I ask the bridegroom if he will love
cherish and keep her until separated
by death. The bride is asked practi
cally the same thing. If either or
both keep these promises, there is no
need for the word 'obey.'
"If she doesn't love him she won't
obey him. She might pretend to, but
Bhe won't.
"And, by the way, this oflice doesn't
believe in tips. It accepts only the
legal fee for the license or the cere
mony. I presume there is nothing
wrong in accepting additional money
from an over-zealous, love-saturated
bridegroom, but I believe that the
law intends that 1 shall take no more
than set forth in the statutes."
After having been appointed by
Wov. Hoch to fill the unexpired term
rt her husband, who died in office,
Mrs. Cooper was re-elected by thy
largest majooriiy of any one on the
ticket.
SLAUGHTERING ELK IN IDAHO.
Numerous Carcasses Found Prove
Conclusively That Lawbreakers
Are Busy at Wanton Work.
Boise, Idaho.—"Unless something is
done, and that li^it away, there will
b« no elk in Idaho in five years," said
A. R. Stephens oI Asshton, Fremont
county, one of the Vest known sports
men in southern J'*: ho. "One hun

Stephens believes the correction of

urges that more sportsmen of Kre

William Loeb, Jr., collector of the
port of New York, through his marine
police patrol is stopping effectively the
bringing ashore at piers of small ar
ticles which are not on the manifest.
These in most cases arc brought over
by passengers as presents for friends,
for their own use ashore or perhaps
as a modest speculation. The guard
ing of the piers formerly was very lax,
and so this constant stream of dutiable
articles flowed into port without the
payment of revenue. The customs
men estimate that the close watch
fulness of Collector Loeb in stopping
this practice means a saving of thou
sands of dollars each month to the
government.
The following story will illustrate

The Uncompahgre project, as it is
called, Is the first of the great irriga
tion systems started by the reclama
tion service to be completed, and it
ranks third among the twenty-seven
enterprises begun by the government,
according to the amount of acreage to
be reclaimed. The project will reclaim
thousands of acres of the finest fruit
land in the world—land that has been
awaiting the magic touch of water to
blossom with crops that will pay the
fortunate farmer better than the aver
age gold mine. This land now looks
dry and sandy, and the thin growth of
sagebrush which covers ^nost of It
seems to have a hard struggle for ex
istence, but a year from today It will
blossom like a garden.
A few brief facts will give the read
er some idea of the size of the Gun
nison tunnel and just what is expected
of it: Six miles of concrete tunnel, the
longest underground waterway in the
world, will transfer water from the
Gunnison river to the Uncompahgre
valley. Twelve miles of canal, with a
greater cross section than the Erie

V/UIII
HERE has just been completed
in western Colorado the most
spectacular irrigation enter
prise the world has ever
known. This is the new Gunnison
tunnel, which is to be opened by Presi
dent Taft this fall. For four years
two gangs of men. two miles beneath
the summit of a mountain, have been
tearing their way toward each other.
Braving all kinds of obstacles and
with death lurking near, they have
slowly drawn together, and recently,
after a terrific explosion, there was
cheering that echoed to every corner
of the Uncouipahpre valley. It sig
nified that the Gunnison tunnel, said
to be the longest underground water
way iu the world, was practically fin
ished and that the dream of ten years
had been realized.

canal's, will conduct the water from
the lower end of the tunnel to the Un
compahgre river. Fourteen intermedi
ate drops will generate 10.000 horse
power for lighting and manufacturing
purposes.
The project will reclaim approxi
mately 150,000 acres of the finest fruit
land in the world, surrounding the
celebrated Montrose fruit district. The
government will charge about $35 per
acre for water rights, but as soon as
the water is on the land it will bo
worth from $200 to $1,500 per acre,
according to state of cultivation. From
500 to 800 men have beeu employed
since February, 1905. For their ac
commodation two towns containing
schools, office buildings, cottages, hos
pitals, etc., have been built by the
government at the portals.
The work has cost the government
about $5,000,000, and it peculiar fea
ture Is that Uncle Sam lends the
money only to the farmers who are to
benefit by receiving water. The gov
ernment, however, gives ample time
for paying for water rights. For in
stance, a settler in the Uncompahgre
valley will have to pay but a small
sum the first year. The payments will
increase from year to year.
Thus it is figured that an ordinary
field crop planted between rows of
young trees will enable a settler to
make his first year's payments and his
living besides. By the time his or
chard conies into bearing. If he has
gone in for fruit culture, he will be
able to meet the heavier payments
.vithout trouble. It is customary to
•ilant potatoes between the rows of
young trees. Some years these will
yield as much as $100 per acre profit.
Settlors will have no difficulty about
marketing their crops, as a railroad
traverses the entire valley. Last year
ihe Montrose ranchers, through their
local association, shipped 2S8 cars of
apples. 10 ears of peaches, 10 cars
uf mixed fruits, such as apricots, cher
ries, grapes, etc., aud 400 cars of pota
toes. Besides these, a large portion of
(he crop was hauled by wagons to
uearby mountain mining camps and
sold at high prices.
Most of the ranches in the valley are
small and compact. When settled un
der the government plan, the unit will
uot be above ten acres. Farm life un
der such circumstances cannot be
lonely. The metropolis of the Uncom
pahgre valley is Montrose, an up to
date little city, with churches, theater,
schools, etc.
President Taft while on bis western
tour will open the Gunnison. When he
presses a button and sends the roaring
waters of the Gunnison through the
great cement waterway not an Amer
ican in the land but should be proud of
the work accomplished by Uncle Sam.

BETZVEIE
Philo Gubb is one of the tenderest
hearted men in netzville. He hasn't
the style necessary to mingle in our
best society, but he has a good heart,
and when his speckled hen died after
setting on a nest of eggs for a week
Philo's heart bled with pity for the
poor motherless eggs. The very min
ute he saw the dead hen he hurried
over to Aunt Rhinocolura Betz' and
asked if he could borrow one of li'er
hens, but they were all engaged in
family business of their own just then,
and Philo sat down on the edge of
the porch and wept. After he had
wept about a quart of tears he perked
up all of a sudden, and asked Aunt
Rhinocolura if she was using her hot
water bottle. When she said no, that
her neuralgia wasn't giving her much
trouble that summer, Philo just
jumped up and down for joy.
VI "V
Philo Gubb and the Auto Hen
As soon as Aunt Rhinocolura gave
him the hot-water bottle he hurried
home, hippity hopping with joy, and
filled the hot-water bottle up to the
neck, and screwed the stopper In, and
laid it with gentle hand on top of the
eggs. During the day the eggs did
not •worry him much after that, for
the sun kept the water in the hot-wa
ter bottle warm enough, but it was a
touching sight to see Philo at night.
He spent all his time at the edge of
3y Ellis Parker Butler.

the bottle, and then stand off behind
the door and cluck like a hen does
when it has found a worm, anil then
he would smile when the chicks ran
up and grabbed the worm. When the
chicks got large enough to venture
out a little Philo tied a string to the
hot-water bottle and dragged it
around the yard after them.
He got so thoroughly into the no
tion that the hot-water bottle was
really a hen that sometimes he would
drag it over into his vegetable gar
den, and then shoo at it to drive it
out. He treated that auto-hen just
as a mother hen should be treated.
Probably he took to It more because
he was a bachelor and lived alone.
He had less to distract his thoughts.
The hot-water bottle grew so realis
tically hen-like to Philo that when
the chicks got old enough to care for
themselves, and Philo had a cousin
from the city stay to dinner, he went
into his back yard and looked over
the chicks. He saw that they were
not old enough to broil yet, so he got
his ax and pounced down on the auto
hen, and chopped the stopper cl-an
off. It' wasn't until Philo grabbed
what was left of the hot-water bottle
and started to pick the feathers off
that he realized it was not a real
*On.
He Got Thoroughly in the Notion That the Hot Water Bottle was Rtslly
the nest, with an oil stove at his side
and a tea kettle of water boilirig away
on the oil stove. He was like a moth
er to those eggs, and it was most af
fecting to hear him while he had the
bottle in his hands, filling it and say
ing: "Now, now, dearies, don't be im
patient, daddy will have mudder full
of hot water in a minute, and then
mudder will cuddle dearies up again."
The eggs seemed to understand the
love Philo Gubb was showering on
them, too. Of course an egg can't
show its affection very well. Next to
a china door knob an egg is about the
dumbest uneffusive thing there is, but
those eggs used to lie there and smile
—no, not smile—they used to lie there
and look up at—no, they didn't look
up—anyway, they used to lie there.
They used to lie there as quiet as 13
brick-bats. They were just placidly
happy, as you might say. Care free,
knowing Philo would take good care
of them and protect them.
Well, one egg got broken! It was
nearly the death of Philo, and only
the fact that there were 12 left kept
him alive. He just couldn't allow him
self to die of grief when there were
12 motherless eggs depending on him,
so he braced up and tried to hide his
sorrow, and kept the hot water bottle
warm.
The day those eggs hatched out was
the gladdest in the life of Philo Gubb.
He was a proud man, I can tell you!
He gave each one a name as it
pecked its way out. The first he
called Eeny, and although he tried
to be impartial anyone could see he
liked this eldest a little the best. The
next one he named Meeny, and the
next Cracky. The others, as they
came he named Feeny, Omnia, Noo
cha, Poppa, Toocha, Rick, Stick, Stan
and the last of all, the baby, as you
might say, Staw. I remember how
proud he was when Uncle Ashod
Clute asked him how the eggs were
doing. Philo spoke right up. Says
be:
"Eeny, Meeny, Cracky, Feeny-—
Omma, Noocha, Poppa, Toocha—Rick,
Stick, Stan, Staw—O-U-T, all out!"
But the most gladdening thing to
the hard heart of man was to see the
way in which Philo helped supply a
mother's care to those little chicks.
They seemed to sense right at tirst
that the hot-water bottle vas the
only mother they had, and they would
run to it, chirping out their little joys
and sorrows, and Philo kept it full
of hot water, so It would feel cosy
and comfortable to the chicks. He
used to sneak away once in awhile
and dig a worm or two in the potato
garden, and come back and drape it
throueh the handle of the stopper of
Hen.
jPo-ter'Ne^.-eliJ
a
That is why I say it is mighty lucky
hot-water bottles don't have feath
ers. If they did have Philo Gubb
would have gone right ahead and
cooked and eaten Aunt lthinocolura's
and as Philo is one of those who be
lieve everything should be chewed to
a pulp before it is swallowed, he
would have sat there at his dining
room table and have chewed his low
er jaw clean off.
