Six of the ten Congressmen elected ago, while labelltd (liana—Th* Wedding Exrltrd a Ileal of Intrrenl Bochuko the tirwoni Wan an Undertaker, Who Had Buried Many. Undertaker Samuel I’avey and Mrs. Sarah Millikeu, who has been known in Aristotle, Ind., for twenty-five years as 1 , ° y ettrs Achilles or Kill Mllliken's widow, were Democrats, were in reality Al- married recently in the presence of liancc men. The purpose now everybody in this village except old Miss is to defeat them alt by the nom- Beckett. Miss Beckett would have been jnation of men owning no other present if she had not left her su k- j allegiance than that of D*moc- bed last week to call on Mrs. Millikeu ” and inquire into the i>articnlars of the ,,r v ' . engagement. After this imprudence she 1 he Atlanta district .8 repre- had a relapse and has been unable to HClited by Leonidas Livingston, leave her bed. 0be was propped up at president of the State Alliance, the vgndow nil the afternoon, however, who left his seat in Congress to and saw everybody that went in or out of church. Undertaker Pavey has buried ail -of the dead hern for the past sixty years. Hu is now a tall, thin man, witli close cropped white hair and smooth shaven face, and always dresses in black, as In comes an undertaker. Only the oldest citizens can remember when bo looked any different from the way he looks now. His wife died forty years ago, and he has kept shy of all maidens am) widows ever since. Years ago he was abandoned by the most persistent match makers as a ho|M'less case. The widow of Kill Millikeu is an esti mable lady, a great maker of cakes foi the church festivals and clever at cite dieting worsted tidies, with a large number of which the chairs and the sofa in her front parlor are adorned. As there has been a good deal of curiosity about her engagement and marriage, she has consented to a public statement. She is a short, fat woman, with hair of a jiecnliar shade of yellow, which she got by using the hair dye which was ad- vertised extensively in connection with her picture and letter of recommenda tion. She says that Mr. Prrey hud never shown any signs of preference for her whatever, nor had she thought of him us the successor of Kill until ten days before the marriage. About that time ho knocked at her front door at half past 11 in the morn ing. It whs a Wednesday and the Widow Millikeu was deep ia the dough, as that is baking day throngh this whole town. She looked out through the blinds of ths window ne-t the front door and saw who it was. As the hud known Mr. Pavey so many years she Just wiped the flour off her hands ui>oii her apron and opened the door. Mr. Pavey went Into the parlor and sat down in the caneseat rocker with the green worsted tidy with bine rile bons through it. He set his tall hut carefully on the floor beside him and then said: “Good morning, Sarah Millikeu,'' "Good morning, Mr. Pavey,"said Mrs. Milliken. She said that she accented the Mr. so that Mr. Pavey might under- atund that she had noticed hie not cull ing her Mrs. Milliken, as lie whs accus tomed to do. Mrs. Millikeu also says that she had a sort of premonition that something was coming. “It can't be that the Goinpers girl is dead?*' she said anxiously. “No,” said Mr. Pavey. “But life is uncertain, Sarah Milliken." “No one should know that bct'i r than yon, Samuel Pavey,” said the widow with one of her sly laughs. Bnt Mr. Pavey did not laugh as he went on: “Sarah, yon are getting along in years. You will soon be in need of my services.” “1 haven't even sent for the doctor yet, and I won't need yon till he's done with me,” said the widow, bridling and pouting. "Do you remember the first Mrs. Pavey?" said the undertaker, paying no attention to her and pursuing his own gloomy reflections. “I was a little girl when she died." said Mrs. Millikeu. “Yes," said Mr. Pavey, “you had just married the late Mr. Milliken five years before. Yon remember that she hud the best funeral this town ever saw, not ex cepting old Captain Lander's funeral, which cost five dollars, as I should know, if anybody. As 1 said, Sarah, you are getting old. If you marry me I will do as well by the second Mrs. Pavey as I did by the first." “Yon always would have your joke, Sam," said the widow. "What will everybody say?” "We are both getting old," said Mr. Pavey, still paying no attention to what the widow was saying. "Life is uncer tain. There is no time to lose.” So Mrs. Milliken said, "All right, Samuel; whenever you say.” “Ten days is long enough. PH see the pastor this afternoon." Then they shook hands, and Mr. Pa- rey pnt on his hat and went away, look ing quite gay and chipper as mxm as the door closed on him, for he did not know that Mrs. Millikeu was watching him throngh the blinds. Two minutes after ward she had called Mrs. Meek, her next door neighbor, to the back fence and had told her all about it. Ten min utes afterward by the clock on the court bonse Mrs. Meek, having left her bakery in charge of her daughter Lizzie, had on her bonnet and shawl and was bear ing down the street, telling everybody she met.—Cor. New York Sun. NouriMtmieut by IlHthlng. “It is well known that the skin is a great absorbent, and nutrition even can be conveyed throngh its agency," said a trained nurse. "A physician once or dered a beef tea bath for a child that I was nursing, who was apparently dying of some exhaustive bowel trouble, and with admirable effect. And 1 myself have found that rubbing delicate iar sons with warm olive oil is an excellent tonic. If 1 had the charge of a pnuy, sickly baby 1 shonld feel inclined to give it oil baths instead of water bath*, and try the effect. The oil is quite as cleansing, and it stands to reason that such tiny beings, particularly if they are badly nonrished. should not have the natural oil of the hotly continually washed away.”—New York Tribune. Kata lu an Kngllnlt Kchuol. An infant school at Over has lieen closed on account of the immlier of rats which infest it. The vermin had become ao bold that they scampered about in the meet impudent fashion while the chil dren were engaged upon their lesr " b'o: meddle in the recent Convention. Mr. B. M. Blackburn is consid m ing the suggestion to oppose Livingston in the coming race, lu an address to the people he says : “We want no trimmers. There are men who, for the sake of official position, will make compromises that will take from them every vestige of political manhood. It would be an infa mous practice to pay men for trying to undo the damage they have done. The sooner such deserters and trimmers are driv en to the political guillotine the better it will be for the strength of party organization and the decency of party government.” The Herald, in endorsing Mr. Blackburn, says that whoever stands up before him will “get it square from the shoulder.’ Mr. Blackburn is the original Cleveland man in Georgia. He was the first actively to espouse the cause of the great leader, and if others had not meddled in the State Convention a solid Cleveland delegation, with the unit rule, would have gone from Georgia to Chicago. Watson will be defeated in the 10th by J. C. C. Black Everett, Winn and Mosses will be left at home. The drift has now set in for straight Democ racy without any comprising features.
