Show j :Irrricu the Girl. Alexander Walker, recently arrested 'on j complaint of Mary Nelson, an attenuated, straw-colored j'rovUin, who charged him with having accomplished her ruin in an fjf'aire tie itur, was invited to his own wedding wed-ding this morning and marched tip to his weiUHug like a "martyr. Commissioner lireenman, helorc whom the action was originally taken, was master f ceremonies. cere-monies. Aleck had determined to tight the ease when first he found himself entrapped and to thst end employed Lawyers Kiley ,t Kaigo. They found him in chancery however how-ever and all avenues of escape closed up before be-fore him. ''Plead guilty to your folly" was the advice of his lawyers "shut your eyes aud swallow the pill." Upon this advice Walker procured a license, went be ft re Commissioner Green-man Green-man nnd resigned himself to his f.ue. The fraulein was there too, and came with a troop of friends of both sexes. The costs of the proceeding were taxed with the rapidity of lightning, a few crisp notes spread out on the jurist's di sk, the curtain wa- drawr.npoa the mocking pal, and the court culled time. Aleck and Mary tripped business-like under the gables of Hymen's temple, the knot wns tied with an eye to 1 ni-, ni-, ness. Commissioner (ireeuiiii-.n murmured j something like '-All's well 1 tint end.-" etc., j and the party moved out under his bcuedie-I bcuedie-I tion. i |
