Among Wisconsin’s many reform laws is one pertaining to secret marriages. It is briefly to the effect that a couple leaving the state and getting married shall upon returning to the state, make declaration of their marriage to the county clerk and have the same recorded. In the event of failure to do so within ten days the parties are subject to a fine of SIOO. This will stop the fool practice of being married a year without telling it just to ‘‘fool our friends,” and that will be something worth while.—Rochester Sentinel. Engineer Charley Waldo of the Clover Leaf, formerly a resident of Delphos, but now of Frankfort, had a hair raising experience near Bluffton, Ind., last Saturday. As his train, passenger No. 4. was bowling along at the rate of fifty miles an hour he saw a man lying near the rail at a curve. The brakes were applied, but the train could not be stopped in time. After passing the spot the train was stopped and the trainmen went back to investigate and found a drunken man lying at the side of the track, his arm resting on a rail, uninjured. He was not near enough to be struck by the train, but the rumble had awakened him. and he shifted fiis position nearer to danger. The crew hustled the drunk right off the right-of-way.—Delphos Herald BRAZIL BLOCK, $4 per ton. Girt Reynolds. 243-6 t
