DEN OF SEVENTY EIGHT,
The facts which go to make up the
following interesting sketch were furnish
ed us by gentleman just arrived from
Liberty, Mo-, who was present and wit
messed the ceremony that bound togeth-
er two souls that had lived beyond the
time allotted to man or woman. The de-
votion on the part of the woman is with
out parallel. The parties referred to
are named Mr.. John Story and Miss Liz
zie Davis, now residents of Liberty, Mo-,
Mr. Story is widower aged eighty, and
Miss Davis lingereth on the sunny side
of seventy-eight. The bridegroom until
recently resided in Kentucky, where he
owned a large farm, we'll stocked, and he
Is now reputed to be worth about $780,
900. 1t would be well enough to state
in the beginning that the bride had a
sister Carrie when she first met Mr.. Sto-
ry, and to her is accorded the honor of
having the misery, and almost death of
the now happy bride. Mr.. Story first
won the heart of Miss Lizzie, and was
devoted to her until the green-eyed mon
ster in the shape of the above mention
ed sister stepped between them. An open
rupture was the result, which finally ter
minated in his leading Carrie to the al
ter. John lived with Carrie what some
people term happy life for some fifty
years. But the grim destroyer, few
months ago, laid its icy fingers on the
once beautiful Carrie, and she passed
from earth to better land. After hav-
ing enjoyed for so long the happiness of
married life, single blessedness to John
was monotonous and dreary. The old
love for Lizzie revived, and to her he
wrote long letter, asking her to forgive
and forget the cruel part that be had
played. 10 this letter she replied with
out delay, assuring him that the old love
for him had never ceased to exist. and
that she only waited for him to come
and make happy the few remaining years
of her existence. The next train carried
the light-hearted John toward Liberty.
Mo. The meeting was affecting in the
extreme, and many friends of the pair
were present mingled tears over the hap
Ply meeting. They were married without
delay, and after the ceremony the bride
began to weep for joy. and kept it up
the entire day.

GROWTH OF CHICAGo's TRADE THE
PAST YEAR.-A remarkable feature of
the years work at Chicago is the increase
of business. 1t appears in every branch
of trade, retail and wholesale. There is
increase in commence, increase in the
number of buildings, increase in the mon
ey invested, increase in population, in
crease In wages, increase in receipts and
shipments, increase in taxes, increase in
everything. Lest some of our neighbour
ing rival cities may be tempted to burn
themselves up in order to secure such ad-
vantages of increase for themselves, it
may be as well for them to consider that
while Chicago, as usual, has had to at
tend to her business as a great distribut-
ing centre OF the rest of the country.
she has also been very busj restoring
what was lost. This has been in addi-
ton to the regular business of the year,
