SHEUARD Wealthy Woman Bride of Railway Man-?'.cani it Ul Church Scene. Tarrytown, N. Y., Jan. 22.-Miss Helen Miller Gould was married at 12.30 o'clock this afternoon at Lyndhurst, her country estate, to Finley Johnson Shepard, an Ameri can railroad man who has risen from the ranks. The bride went to the altar, halt bidden by roses, asparagus ferns and palms, with her brother, George J. Gould, who gave her in marriage. An orchestra, screened by masses of flowers in the music room, played Lohengrin's Wedding March, while Rev. Daniel D. Russell, pastor of the Irvington Presbyterian church, per formed the ceremony. Helen and Dorothy Gould, nieces of Miss Gould, acted as flower girls and were her only attendants. Louis J. ! Shepard, brother of the bridegroom, was best man. I I The couple stood during the cere I mony beneath a bower of American Beauty roses, with festoons of gray white asparagus reaching almost to tie ground. The bride carried a modest bouquet of lilies of the val le}, her favorite flower. A rope of exquisite pearls, said once to have adorned Empress Jose phine, and a pear-shaped diamond pendant, the latter the bridegroom's gift, were the only jewelry worn by the bride. The pearls were a be quest from Miss Gould's mother. Beautiful Gown. The wedding gown was of duch esse ivory satin, with a sweeping train three and a half yards long, trimmed with duchess and rose point lace and with seed pearl embroid ery. The lace and voil were gifts from the Duchess de Tallyrand, for merly Miss Anna Gould, the bride's sister. The veli was held with a spray of orange blossoms and swept In flowing lines to the end of the long train. Orange blossoms also caught up the lace at the sides of the skirt. The bride's slippers cor responded with the gown and were trimmed -with small rosettes of or ange blossoms. A Small Crowd. Less than 100 persons were bid den to the ceremony. They included close relatives of the bride and bridegroom and friends of long standing. Thousands of Gifts. Had not the gallery been an im mense room, there would not have been space for the thousands of gifts that have come from all over the world.

After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Shepard remained at Lyndhurst. They have not announced where they will spend their honeymoon. ( ashier Takes Only $100,000. High Bridge, N.

AecLdontalr/ IM ?covered Concealed in Embossed Picture Post Cards. OssiniDg, N. Y., Jan. 21.-Tho ac cidental dropping of a weight has cleared up a mystery which has been puzzling th? wardens of Sing Sing prison from the time of Warden Sage down to Jchn S. Kennedy, the incum bent. The weight in question showed how drugs like opium, morphine, cocaine, in powder form, and other things get to the convicts. The discovery will be of benefit to the wardens of every other prison of the State and to keep ers of city prisons like the Tombs in New York. It has been shipped in picture post cards. Kurther than that, from Investigations already ad opted by Warden Kennedy, it appears that as far as the New York supply is concerned one woman has bern the principal manufacturer, having a large stock of drugged postals on hand, which fact was known to the friends of men in prison who must have drugs. No one thought anything of lt when the postal card craze manifested it self in the prison five or six years ago, because the convicts keep pretty well abreast of the times. Some of the cards were movable, the embossing being prominent and large. The mall that arrived one morning a week or more ago contain ed several score o? these cards and all were taken to the proper official to be examined, as ls the rule. The man sat at his desk, the cards before him. In some way or other, either a weight or a book dropped on one of the largest post cards In such a manner that the edge of it struck on the edge of the embossing, cutting a hole. To the surprise of the man at the desk, a tiny speck of white dropped before him. He picked lt up. It looked like tho segment of a small morphine pill. He took it to the prison physician and such. It proved to be. ^ The embossing was ripped loose and the hollow space of It wae found to be filled with more morphine pills, a goodly number of them a half grain In strength and concentrated. An examination of every other embossed postal card in the batch showed that two-thirds of them had some kind of drug in them, enough to last a fiend until the next postal card was received, WH VT'S THE REASON ?

FIFTY PERSONS ARE BURIED When Texas Store Collapses During a Bargain Sale. McKinney, Texas, Jan. 23.-About fifty persons, many of them women and girl shoppers, were caught in the collapse here this afternoon of the Cheeves Brothers' department store, occupying two floors of a three-story brick building. The ruins caught fire, burning for an hour, suffocating or burning, outright victims who had not been crushed to death. Six hours after the collapse seven dead and thirteen injured had been taken from the smoking pile, and hopes of finding any more allvo were dwindling. Vernie Graves, t'.e only one known to get out unhurt ?vhen .the walls fell, said there were at least fifty in the building. An ad joining building fell without Injur ing any one.

Very few people go through life without some time or other being troubled with constipation. Thou sands Injure themselves by the use of strong cathartics, salt mineral waters, pills and similar things. They have te&porary value iu some cases, lt ls true, but the good effect ls soon lost, and the more one takes of them the less effective they become. A physic or purgative ls seldom necessary, and much better and more permanent results can be obtained by using a scientific remedy like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It does not hide behind a high sounding name, but lt ls what it is represented to be, a mild laxative medicine. It Is so mild that thousands of mothers give it to tiny Infants, and yet it ls so compounded, and contains such definite ingredients that it will have equally good effect when used by a person suffering from the worst chronic constipation. In fact, among the greatest endorsers of Syrup Pep sin ar?, elderly people who have suf fered for years and found nothing to benefit them until they took Syrup Pepsin. It Is D fact that millions of fami lies have Syrup Pepsin constantly In the house, homes like those of Mrs. G. B. Pruitt, Borea, Ky., who used Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin ns a laxa tive tonic. Mrs. Pruitt, writes that it it so strengthened and cleansed her system that she was quickly relieved of a severe cough which had troubled her for months.
