A cheerful WeddiuE.

A cheerful sort of wedding took place in Chic
ago the other day resembling all the agonizing
elegance of weddings in high life, except in feel
| ing in which there was rather more than is nat
ural for marriage in uppertendom. The happy
bridegroom was John Howells, one OF those
lords OF leisure who live on the earnings Of
other people. In a recent attempt to levy on q
traveller his share Of the tax, John was caught,
and after preliminary confinement in the Jail
at Chicago was doomed to serve the State some
| years at Joliet. In his better days John had
| won the heart Of a genial maiden, known as
''Topsy," aashily dressed, pert, and saucy dam
sel who kept cigar store, and had scores, of ad-
mirrors, who smoked cigars enough to give them
the brain fever, because they could buy them of
Topsy In her lovers Distress faithlessienough
in his prosperity, she scorned would-be consol-
ers, and flew to the prison, where daily her heart
huttered against the bars, in response to that of
her Johns on the other side. When the fiat
came that he must journey to Joliet dismAyed,
but undaunted, she determined, as far as might
be, to make his suiferngs her own. A marriage
was agreed upon, justice was summoned, and
in the stone parlor, behind the bars, the ceremo-
ny was performed For bridal tour they paced
| erm in arm, up and down the corridor for sever
al hours, on their wedding eve the bridegroom
left for two years term in the penltentiary, and
| for her portion the bride has two years watch
ing and the right to suffer more nearly with him
| than any other.

proper management.
