.re
A genuine, old fashion wedding took place
at the New England farm house, on Satur-
day afternoon. The event has been for some
time pleasantly anticipated in connection
with the fair, and. It proved to be very
pleasant and interesting occasion. The hos
tess engaged in the ceremony and several
other pcrsous, were dressed in old-fashioned
style, and oldtime customs prevailed through
out the exercises. The fact that it was a real
bono file marriage ceremony added largely to
the interest and imprcssiveness OF the scene.
The bans Were regularly read for the third
time, and the marriage service by the Meth
odist Episcopal church was performed in q
formal and solemn manner. the Rev DR.. Tiff
fany oficiated. The attendants Of spectators
was about as large as the auditorium Of the
farm House could accommodate, rnahy per-
sons being unable to procure seats.
The marriage ceremonies were eommenc-
ee shortly after 8 o'clock, the band playing
wedding march, as the bridal party entered
and took their places in front of an impromp-
tu altar, which had been erected near the
centre of the room. The party consisted OF
the bride and bridegroom, Miss Maggie Snow
| of Milwaukee, and Mr.. g. D. CIaPp, of Chi
cago; the bridesmaid, Miss Agnes Paul, Of
Chicago; Mr.. T. D. freeman, Of Milwaukee,
who gave away the bride; Hon. j. B. Brad
well and the Rev. DR.. Tiffany, the ofieiat-
ing clergvmen. After the usual marriage
ceremony ofthe Methodist Episcopal church
had been performed, including the singing OF
"Invitetiou" by select choir, the bride was
presented with three beautiful boquets by
three interesting young ladies; after which
tHome, Sweet Home was sung in a pleas
ant style by the choir and others. Then
came the congratulations, salutations and
kissing Of the bride and groom, which was
the most interesting probably the most
ngreable to those who took part in it-of all
the ceremonies 4 beautiful collation. Of
wedding cake and other refreshments Lad
been provided, which was generously distri-
buted, and the episode was concluded by the
party marching through Union Hail. accom-
| panied by long train Of ladies and gentle
men in old fashioned attire. During the
promenade, "Auld Lang Syne" was sung in
an impressive manner, eliciting hearty ap-
plause The old fashioned dresses worn on
this occasion were generally very becoming
to the wearers, and many of them were very
ancient. The costume worn by Mrs. J. B
Bradwell was the wedding dress OF Mrs. Gen
Israel Putnam, which was loaned Ior the
benefit of the fair by descendant Of the
family Chicago Times.

There have already been instanced some
individual acts of kindness in this city. Some
days ago a weIlknown merchant here en-
countered upon Broadway a gaunt and grimy
figure, in whom he recognized one Of his an

and took him home to dinner. He gave him
an order on clothier, and had him decently

Of gratitude and revived hopes.
A lady, at thebrealing out ofthe war; was
compelled to break marriage engagement

was frst betrothed. At the time, she was
leaning upon her husbands arm. He was ia

The husband left her side Immediately and
hailed the hungry-eyed man. The three
went home together, and the late rebel may
be seen every afternoon, at present, dressed
like the master of a plantation, lolling at the
door of one of the best hotels
