CUPID HEAT-CRAZED. !
The marrying bug brokn looso In
Beaver the latter part qf Inst week
and every unmarried male was won-

meekly up to tho altar hud thrust an
unwilling but wilted neck into the
hymeneal yoke. While they-and the j
married onus too malo aim female .
were uomg mo wonuering sunn uivy
had one slipped over on them. Other
iispirautJ for connubial bliss were sat-
isfied !'th Oklshoma Ilcnnse and an
Oklahoma feoremony on Oklahoma -"oil.
Not so the subjutt of this sketch.
They hired a jitney and mads it for

by. Unknown to friends or foes tho
arrangement had been made mid wore
carried out without arousing tho sus-
picious of the mou susjHoious. The
happy twosqme arrived in Beaver Sat-
urday about 6 p. m . and so successful
were their elTorts that no one was com-
pletely convinced of the truth until
Monday although Madam Rumor ex-
erted herself and all her assistr-uts to
exhaustion. After the cat did get out
m mu uu. iiuwukur mere was piuufcy i
doinir. The friends themselves did a l
little scheming and foolcJ the princi-
pals about as completely as the. same
principals had fooled them. Leading
them to believe that Urn next night
would bo the occasion of a charivari
they pulled it off Monday night.
Armed with tin pans skillets and
other noiie-maklng paraphernalia tho
crowd of friends (V) the parcnthetW
being Roy's marched upon the homo
of A Willis whero the" newly-weds
were domiciled. Some forty dogs
joined and'bedlom reigned for a space.
Tho bride is the sister of Asa Willis

having given Beave.r her first picture

and mother near Er ck Oklahoma.
She cimehure on a visit to her brother

PROBST GRAIN COMPANY ADD TO
ELEVATOR.
An additiou to t'-e Probst Grain
Company's elevator large enough to
hold 20000 bushels has just been com-
pleted this week. This company has
always been very progressive and ex-
hibited great faith in the future of
Beaver and Beaver eoutity and this Is
added evidence of the fact Their fa-
cilities have been Improved until they
are able to take care of all grain that
pi ay come to them in tho course of
business.
Siys the Beaver County Republican :
"Even the peaceful littla town Of Gray
contains a two-legged skunk that is
such a Ion -down contemptible coward
it will walk right past a man without
molesting him and then turn and hit
him in the bak of the necu " Which
makes us wonder about two things
one of them being a question as to
who has been treating our brother ed-
itor so badly as to bring out a howl
like that and the other as to when the
animal referred to so radlcalcy ohang-
ed his method of attack.
Congressman Dick T. Morgan en-
joyed the distinction of being invited
by President Wilson to bo present at
the signing of the Rural Credits BUI
at the White House on July 17th.
Only those who had been active in se-
curing this legislation were invited
and the honor accorded Mr. Morgan
was In the way of an appreciation of
tho work he did in its behalf.
