Miss Mamie Osborn were united
in the holy bonds of matrimony,

MORRCHV-HARRISON
At 2 p. m. March 15th, at the
Baptist parsonage, Rev. A. T.
Ford joined in marriage Mr. W.
M. Morrow of Jayton and Miss
Vivian Harrison of our town.
The fortunate groom is a son
of banker J. S. Morrow of Stam-
ford and was reared in Jones
county. He is the popular and
prosperous druggist at Jayton, a
high-toned gentleman and thor-
oughly competent business man.
The beautiful and accomplished
bride who has pledged herself to
love, honor and obey the man to
whom she is wed, is the daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Green Har-
rison, and has lived in our town
since her early girlhood days.
Her polished manners, gentle
bearing and lady-like conduct
has won her the love and esteem
of her friends and made her a
favorite with all of our people.
How sadly she will be missed by
I
the throng of young people with
whom she came in daily contact,
not only in a social way, but in
every relation that is for the best
interests of our town and people.
Our best wishes are that trouble
may never darken their pathway
and that the God of riches may
ever be found smiling upon their
threshold.

PATRIOTS GO.
Thus one by one the choicest
flowers are being plucked from
Aspermont's flower garden until
we begin to fear that our once
beautiful and fragrant boquet of
belles will lose its charm. Still
there are springing up many
young buds which will in a short
time blossom into sweet frag-
rance and take the place of these
departed flowers.

sued since last issue as follows:
W. M. Morrow and Miss Vivi-
an Harrison, March 14th.
J. S. Gibson and Miss Annie
Ford, March 14th.
Tom McLamore and Miss Ma-
mie Osborn, March 14th.
G. S. Hester and Amelia Sand-
lin, March 16th.
"The mountains labored and
brought forth a mouse." A de-
cided cold wave passed ever
Bryan at 6 o'clock this morning
when the loudly heralded anti-
Bailey special train from South
Texas passed through on its way
to Waco.
It was a frost, a killing, wither-
ing, blighting frost. It had been
heralded far and wide that the
patriots of Beaumont, Houston
and all South Texas would sweep
through the state, like the pillar
of fire that led the children of Is-
rael by night on their way to
Waco to save the country. .
The Pilot editor expected to
see five hundred or perhaps a
thousand men, their eyes burn-
ing with the fire of patriotism,
their voices blending in a mighty
shout, greater than the blast
from the ram's horn of the hosts
of Joshua, that leveled the walls
of Jerico, and the whole enliven-
ed, enthused and inspired by the
martial strains of half a dozen
brass bands.
But alas, it was the frazzled
end of a fizzle. No band, no en-
thusiasm, no shouting and after a
careful search of every car by
