GRETNA GREEN SMITHY'.
Building Long of Eloping t
cou-
ples
m-ples Ordered Removed.
The march of progress may mean
the passing of the village smithy of
Gretna Green, says the Pathfinder.
This immortal goal of eloping cou-
ples has been condemned by author-
ities as .a menace to motorists. The
present owner of the old bltcksmi.h's
buildinng has been offered a large sum
by county 'authorities if he will con-
sent to remove the building. But the
stalwart owner proudly declares he
would not take a gold nine for lt,
and boasts that it is .a "necessity."
Gretna Green in its heyday was a
sort of antithesis to the modern Reno,
Paris, and -other cities. •Runaway
couples were joined there in some-
what the same way that unhappy
couples are put asunder in these ci-
ties to -day. The village is on south-
east Dumfriesshire, Scotland, just
over the English border, As the
nearest village on the Scottish side
it was long notorious as the favorite
resort of eloping couples. UP until
1754 Fleet Prison in London was tate'
leading place for clandestine mar-
riages. But Lord Hardwick's act of
that year abolished Fleet marriages.
So the runaway couples, whose mar-
riages were forbidden by irate par-
ents or the stern laws of England
had to And a more hospitable country.
As a result Gcetua Green, across tin'
border, became the goal of many
thousands desiring easy marriage.
There they could f
u d be joined red in wedlock
by merely declaring their 'wish to
marry • Ln the presence of witnesses.
The ceremony was usually performed
by the village blacksmith, but Rha
toll -keeper, ferryman or, in fact, al-
most anyone could perform it.
Thus from 1760 to 1866 Gre'na
Green was the haven of distracted
lovers, and the village smithy became
the most romantic house In all the
United Kingdom. But Lord Broug-
ham's act in 1856 rendered these
hasty marriages Illegal by making it
necessary for one of the contracting
parties to reside in Scotland for three
weeks pr,ior to the ceremony. De-
spite
this fact, however, Gretna Green
has endured. So has the village
smithy. '
GOLD STORAGE CATS.
Temperature of a Cold Storage Cellar
Produces Long -Haired Cats.
One day the local carpenter who
had taken a job in. the city came to
see me, writes Mara Evans, Be had
under his arm one of the oddest lit-
tle kittens I've ever seen. Apparent-
ly a long-haired white it didn't look
like a Persian. More than ;anything
else, it looked like a polar bear's cub.
"What kind of a cat is this?" I
asked him,
"This is a cold storage eat. A year
or so ago," he explained, "the cold
storage warehouse Inc'working for
took in a lot of oats to kill rats,
What with the damp and the dark
and the cold, only a few of 'em lived,
but the ones that did grew longer
and longer hair, and this kitten is the
fourth generation. I've got seven o8
them."
Well, if the cold of the Himalayas
produced the long.haired Oriental
sate, It seems : logical that the tem-
perature of a cold storage Warehouse
cellar should produce long-haired
alley eats,
I watched the various generations
of those kittens around the neighbor-
hood, and was amused to nee them.

EGMONDVILLE
CROOKDOMtS MODEL CITY,
('Stratford ;Beacon -Herald)
The massacre in Chicago on the
14th inst., when seven leen were shot
to death in one place, has received
hunch publicity. • The chances are
that a good many readers 'in Canada
May be tired seeing Chicago crime ,
Stories in print,
'But there's something more in it
than just another crime story. Chi-
cago is a great city, well !located and
it is the home of hundreds of thou-
sands of decent and respectab'Ie
people,
Perhaps we dont realize just what
this slaughter in Chico o means, nor
do we grasp the full significance
of
some of the events which followed it.
Just this instance to illustrate: A
dentist in that city was called by the
police be,cause it was believed he had
fixed the teeth of one off the men who
did the shooting. The dentist looked'
over pictures at the .police station and'
picked out a man who had come to
his office, and gave his name. Ap-
parently that was considered valuable
evidence.
When the police went to call hitn
again he was missing, and it is evi-
dent that he had been taken atday.
'How did the thugs on the outside
know about the dentist? Apparently
a witness for the state is in as much
danger of his life in Chicago as an
offending thug from another gang.
1f a witness were wanted in Strat-
ford in a murder trial he cou'ldgo
about his business as usual; no one
would injure him; no one would ,:be
allowed to threaten him. In th.atrway
justice could have the benefit of his
testimony,and we would regardand that
as a perfectly proper procedure.
In Chicago it appears that the
state is not able to go ahead and call
