Yesterday, and he is happy. The GER
smony wa. performed at st. paul's
Church, Virginia City, by the Rev. Mr..
J.nvsy, at 2 o'clock nthe afternoon.
| The church wal filled by the friends OF
the groom and bride, who had gathered
long before the appointed. Mr.. John
| Pipsr gave away the brids-a niece Of
his-Catherine q. Ludolph by name. as
ane q lady rs Storey county has ever
been blessed with. After the couple had
been pronounced one, they proceeded 10
their future home on A street and there
| the reception was held. Many were the
toasts and well wishes the happy couple
received, and many and various were the
presents. John showed them all to Us.
Such o pile OF useful presents were
enough to make the greatest nissan
thrope smile with satisfaction, much
less a man OF Johns temperament.
They served to show him that in this
"his hour OF tribulation," he was not
deserted by his friends. Ono present,
especially. was placed in q back room.
far from the gaze Of inquisitive eyes,
and that was - cradle from General
c. @. Batterman. John said 1t was the
best "yoke" he had seen for some time.
The newly married pair left last night
for San Francisco, whore they will re-
main for the next three weeks.
"Ir's Jusr LIKE A MAS."-ws paid a
visit last night to the house Of a well
known citizen Of Virginia. II was
something unusual Of course, but then we
done so. This gentleman has q couple
Of handsome daughters, and while we
were paying u respects to them we OBJ
tanned permission TO light q cigar. One
Of the ladies' volunteered to light 1t for
US, and, placing the right end OF the
weed between her ruby lips (for q Won
der she did put the right end IN her
mouthl. she successfully performed the
operation. Well, she was so elated that
she Immediately rushed over to her sis
ter and kissed her veheinently. What
sweetness was then wasted upon the
desert air? The sister In mediately cried
out, "Oh. Carrie, do it again, quick-it
tastes Just like 4 man. And Carrie
did do Il again, and done II quickly, too.
Now what puzzles us was that we thought
il very strange that the eldest daughter
Of q citizen. supposed to be tho head OF
a well-regulatsd family. should know
anything about such matters. We did
not say a word, but we thought n heap.
A Much NErDKD IMPROVEMENT. =.
Thankful should the citizens Of Vir-
ginia be for possessing such nm enter
prising Chief Of Police as Ben Lackey.
Ben says we can have rs much mud in
Gold Hill as We darn please, but he is
going to make n thoroughfare Of G.
street, and to accomplish this end he
has been working faithfully for the past
two weeks. From the Chaplin House to
the Globe he has macadamized in a style
that recommends him to the considera-
ton OF all voters Of large cities when
they next hold an election for the Office
Of Street Contractor. In some places
he has placed powders that will weigh a
ton, and for q depth Of from two to
three feet he has laid rocks that 1t will
take years to be covered by the mud and
Stun that disgracss Q street from Wells,
Fargo K Co. s TO Sutton n Some
sloughs that he is filling up have called
forth many a curse from the lips and
hearts Of honest transfers, and hereafter,
when they drive their teams over a solid
bed, with wheels unclo:ged by mud. the
change will be so great that we wouldn't
be at all surprised II they should offer
up n prayer for Bsn's salvation.
The GREAT RACE tomorrow Is justly
attracting moro than usual attention.
Tho San Francisco Board OF Brokers
passed n resolution this morning which
conyenes the Board at 10A. N tomorrow
instead OF IL NJ, the customary hour for
meeting on Saturday. This was done
to allow the gay and festive gsn,lemsn
to attend the race. Last night carried
from Virginia and Gold Hin every lover
Of a horse race that could possibly be
spared, who could raise the necessary
funds 10 carry him down to tho Bay.
Many were the demands made upon
sports who possessed a stake by their
less lucky brethren. Dougbnut Bal, tho
irrepressible. at half past 8 was discon.
sslats. He hadn't q short bit even, and
his prospect Of Witnessing the great
event Of the season appeared very slim.
However, OF twenty minutes OF y he
struck an old friend, who loaned him
ten dollars. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Bill left Virginia on the express train at
0 o'clock. with ninety dollars in his
pocket. "Then he was happy and froe
from all care"
