A Polish Wedding In Wisconsin.

When Polish maiden gets married,
the more noise and excitement there is
gotten up for her amusement, the bet.
ter she likes it. Yesterday, wedding,
after the Polish style, was celebrated in
the first ward at St. Hedwig's church.
A procession was formed and marched
through the principal streets Of the To-
cality to the tune of national airs and
the firing Of guns. First came the band
(which, in some cases, ranks according
to the old gentleman's purse); second,
the bride and groom, followed by the
bridesmaids and groomsmen then the
parents, relatives and invited guests
followed in couples. A number Of boys
were scattered from the house to the
church, and they kept up continuous
firing of guns and pistols. When the
procession arrived at the church, the
band stepped aside and the party en-
tered and was seated according to
marching order. The bride and groom
then took their places in front Of the
altar, attended by the bridesmaids and
groomsmen. The ceremony was
short, and at the close the
young man put his arms around
the young woman's waist and gave her
squeeze and kiss. At that moment
some one inside gave warning to the
boys outside, and fearful discharge Of
light artillery ensued just as the kiss
was given. The band began to play,
and all marched out Of the church and
throug h the streets to the place from
whence :they started, the band playing
antk@he;boys firing during the march.
All of these weddings are alike. The
bride is generally dressed in white, and
if there is not veil in the family she
buys OF borrows one. The men wear
long serge coats, doubtless made dur
ing the reign Of John sobieski, and
some of the women wear dresses Of the
same material. The young married
man, if he is able, has store coat.
After dinner the drinking Of beer com.
mences, aud then dancing ensues. On
a table in one corner>of the room is
dish, into which every one who dances
with the bride is expected to deposit a
small sum Of money, generally twenty"
Ave or fifty cents, which:is' the brides
dover. The fun is usually kept up till
morning. This was the sase with YES"
terd.y's ceremonies. -; I 1t1'eoukee W''-

SHOT-A MUSKET THE WEAPON.

For some time. past the neighborhood OF
Bienville and Derbigny streets has been in
tested by crowd of miscellaneous boys whose
special delight was to torment a man living in
that vicinity, named Toney Herrera. The
simple fact that Henera's temper was not OF
the best was inducement enough for them 70
continue their FRANKS at his expense, DOtwith-
standing that more than once he warned them
that their amusement was not to his liking
The old adage Boys will be boys" was
in this case fully exemplifed, so much SO that
Herrera determined to act promptly, with the
hope that his future would be one Of quiet
We will do him the Justice to say that injury
to any one of the youthful flock was tar from
his mind, but his determination to give them
good scare was evinced by his prompt &C
ton in the premises. Yesterday afternoon,
about 4 o'clock, raid was again made upon
him by the youthful sinners, and half both
cred to death with their jeers OF contempt
aud delision, he rushed indoors, and, seizing
an old Austrian mllsket which had been in
his house for years, and which was loaded
with No. 5 bird shot, he advanced to the
front door of his house and discharged the
same, as he thought, above their heads.
The effect OF this ruse was marked, for the
army scattered in all directions, leaving be-
hind them, however one of their number a
youth OF fifteen summers. named James
Dignan, lying on the ground.
Eye-witnesses OF the scene Immediately
rushed to the PROSTATE boy, and then il was
found that the range OF the gun had been too
low for on an examination being held, two shots
were found in his face two in the breast and
two in the right arm. He was conveyed to
the drug store and his wounds, which were not
dangerous were dressed. Herrera was locked
up in the Fourth Precinct Station.
