WEDDING BELLS.
Their Merry Peals Make Music in Cor-

This has beea a week-of notable events

The residence of the bride's parents,
the scene of the happy event, was elabor

parlor was similarly decorated, and. the
dining room set apart for the bridal party
was draped and festooned with American
of "sweet peas and from it four long ropes
of sruilax were draped to the corners of
the table. Other festosns of smilax

now at Wright creek, -B. C. , to a friend
in this city. The letter is dated August
loth, 1899, and contains facts that may
interest intending excursionists to that
section. Mr. Turney has a style that is
entertaining, and his Veracity is unques
tioned. He indicates that he has given
up atl hope of doing anything, in lhat
country. But let him speak for himself:
"There is more hardship and distress
to the square inch in this accursed land
than in any. country I was ever in in all
my life. There are some good claims in
this Atliu district, but they tire few and j
none are of fabulous worth. I have own
ed one or two and had others on a 'lay,'
but there has turned out to be nothing in
anything I have handled. 'Tis not a
pleasant predicament to- find one's self
'broke,' no matter what the country, but
it -is doubly embarrasing and distressing
here. Two years of life and hardship
gone 'where the woodbine twineth.'
"Last year there was at one time dur
ing the winter sixty-five destitute men

Whether I shall ever get out of this
with a.whole hide, is of serious import
to me. I am getting as did as the hills

From four points in the room long lines
of hops were suspended, gathering to

where huBg the wedding bell. The pews
had been so arranged that there was
one broad aisle up the center of the
church' from entrance to altar. Miss
Mamie Cauthorn began the weddixg
march and promptly at the appointed
time, eleven o'clock, the bridal party
entered the doors and marched to the
altar. There the bride was met by the
groom and his best man, Reginal Hay
ward, his brother, with Dr. Thompson,
and the words that united the happy
couple were impressive spoken. ''".
Those composing the wedding parjy
were Miss Theodora Sturko, of Chi

Miss Sarah Jacobs, bridesmaids, and Dr.
Bowen Lester, E. E. Wilson, Charles

son, ushers. .
Immediately after leaving the church
the wedding party ;with Dr. and Mrs. C.
H. Lee, Mrs. M. E. Lee, were taken to
the bride's home where a delicious wed
ding breaktast . was served. The table
was beautifully decorated with maiden
hair fern, roses and smilax. The chande
lier over center of table held a quantity
fiict with ordinance No. 80, and thereby
repeal and leave the city without, any
law to regulate the use of wheels in the
city limits for seven, months in the year,"
hence all walks and streets in the city
are open for their use during that time.
Fprther, it is my opinion that if ordi
nance No. SO was enforced.and all persona
using wheels without bells or whistles,
and riding at night without lamps, ' and
at any time at a greater speed than that
allowed by the said ordinance, were
prosecuted and punished as provided for
in said ordinance, that the results would
be much more satisfactory. At present
ordinance No. 80 stands on our books as
a dead letter ; tor some reason it is a
failure.' If, in the attached ordinance
the word-"Octobei" in the third line of
section 1, and the words "ordinance or''
in the first line of section 3, had been
omitted it would have received my ap
proval.
I would reccommend to the city coun
cil that all matter pertaining to wheels
be gathered into one ordinance and
given proper consideration by advising
and consulting with those who, use
wheels in their business in a legitimate
way, making it strong enough to cover
all the points affecting the legitimate
riders, and so it will punish, if prose
cuted, the reckless riders - that have
neither business ' nor brains. Until
that time, Ordinance No. 80 will answer
all purpose. ;
I recommend "to your consideration,
the fact that Dersoos on both sides ot
the-question are citizens, neighbors and
tax payers, and I suggest that each
should manifest due consideration for
the rights and interests of the others;
and that the council should onlv take
such action as shall be fair and equit
able to both sides. -Dated
this 1st day of September, 1899.
Respectfully submitted,
J. W. Crawford, Mayor.
LAST ORDINANCE PREVAILS.
Ed. Union-Gazette. "It is under
stood that Mayor Crawfoid has vetoed
the bicycle ordinance. His objection, it
is said, is based on the fact that the new
ordinance will repeal the old ordinances.
" '
There is no general repealing clause in
the new ordinance and it w-ill only repeal
by implication any existing ordinances
that are in direct conflict with it. There
can be bo conflict betwean the new ordi
nance and any existing ordinance on the
subject as to the rate of speed at which
wheelers may ride and none as to what
sidewalks they may" use except during
the months designated in the new ordi
nance, to-wit : June. July, August, Sep
tember and October. In fact both ordi
nances will be in force except when they
conflict and in that case the last ordi
nance will prevail, Eyeryone knows
that the speed ordinance is a dead letter
and never, .can be enforced. A large
