The Saginaw, (Mich) Courier-Herald 29, says : “Yesterday morning at 0:30 o'clock occurred the marriage of Miss Jennie K. Nash, the highly gifted and accom— plished organist and choir director of the vested choir of St. John’s Epis- copal church, this city, and Peter H. Dewsbury, of Buffalo, N. Y. “The wedding was celebrated at the residence of Frank E. Emerick, on Court street, a friend of the contract- ing parties, and one of the vestrymen of SI. John’s church, and was in ac- cordance with the beautiful ritual of the Episcopal church, Rev. Dr. T. W. McLean, dean of the Central convoca- tion, and rector of Trinity church, Bay City, officiating. 'f‘The wedding, although quiet and informal, was very charming and de- lightful. In the parlor among the Christmas holly and mistletoe, were . scattered in honor of the pretty festi- val of yesterday, the gayer buds and blossoms of summer, typical of youth and hope, ard a future to be crowned of Thursday, December withlov happiness. “TY“, -. -: 53 "I "s dressed in a travel- in: I oar ‘ nine. and wore a cor.

The Chief next inquired as to the ten cent piece and was told that it was to pay for the two glasses of cider. Sufficient evidence of an illegal sale having been established, Chief Bradley made a search of the premises and cap- tured sixteen quart bottles and two demijohns of cider and a quart bottle of Italian wine. Francisco denied selling cider or liquor of any kind and stated to the Chief that it was nothing but tonic, but the Chief was not to bethus easily “gulled,” and he placed Francisco under arrest and marched himtothe Smith street lockup to spend Sunday. The cider and Italian wine was con- fiscated, and the case turned over to Prosecuting Attorney E. M. Lockwood. After looking Francisco up the ofli- SLASHERS AROUND.

Some one, with evil intent, entered the barn on East \Vashington street, rented by Plnkys Krakow, the dry goods dealer, last night, and slashed into hits a harness belonging to Kra- kow.

The arguments on the motion to quash the indictment for aginst Dr. Nancy A. Guilford which were to have been heard to-day by George W. Wheeler, presiding over the Special/session of the eliminal Superior court, went over for two weeks owing to State’ .9 Attorney Fes- seI'Iden' being engaged elsewhere.‘ cers returned to the place of business and made a careful search of the premises, with the result that a trap door was found in the floor leading to a small cellar underneath the store. Upon descending into this private cellar the officers found a cask and keg of wine, which were removed to police headquarters. When questioned relative to this lat- er find Francisco said that when he pur- chased a quanity of grapes and they were not scld he would squeeze them into wine before they became badly decayed. From the quantity of this liquor found the officers are of the opinion that‘there were a great many grapes bought that were not sold. This morning Francisco was brought before the Town Court, but owing to his having secured the services of Attorney J. Belden Hurlbutt as his counsel, Judge Gregory declined to act. Judge Frost was thereupon com- municated with, but owing to other business was unable to come up town, and Judge Gregory opened court and adjourned the case until Friday after- noon at 3 o’clock, placing Francisco under‘$75 bonds to appear for trial at that time. It is believed that when the case comes up on Friday, that FranCIsco will enter a plea of guilty and pay up. Frequenters of this place after 1 o’clock in the morning say that “one drink of Frank’s cider Will put ,a man to sleep until 9 o’clock, and that two drinks will keep him asleep until noon.” .~ 2 0.
