Miss Susan B. Anthony has done a no
BILE thing, which deserves to be widely
known. She has lectured 100 times du-
ring this season, it is said and has paid off
the last of the debt of $4,000 which she
was compelled to assume in the failure of
The Revolution. In the days of its weak
ness, when the advocates of woman sui
frage were hopelessly divided into two
rival organizations, and the Woman's
Journal was fourishing in Boston, Miss
Anthony courageously took the Revolu-
ton, and became financially responsible
for it. That she has felt obliged to work
for years after its failure to pay its debts,
at time when thousands of men avail
themselves of the privileges of the bank
rupt act, is phenomenal exhibition Of
moral scnsitiveness and personal honor.

The marriage of Mr.. John White and
Miss Susie Moran, though unexpected
by any except the mos.intimate friends
of the respective parties, was an even:
which called forth the hearty congratu-
Iations and best wishes from the many
friends and acquaintances of both par
ties. Tue bans were published in the
Catholic Church in the usual manner
after mass, and the ceremony was per.
formed that afternoon by Rev. j B. M.
Genin. Mr.. White is one OF the earliest
settlers in our city, and his ever happy
and genial manner has won for him the
respect and esteem of all Miss Susie
Moran is a charming brunette of sixteen
summers and though she has resided in
this city but short time her grace ful
and pleasing demeanor endeared her to
the hearts OF all whuse good fortune j,
was to know her. May their life to-
gether be one OF perpetual bliss.

During the summer months people
predicted that the amour: of flour, bacun

would more than su flee for the winters 8
supply, and the supposed glut Of the
market depressed pr,c.s to such an ex'
tent that freighting in staples almost
ceased. Now what has been the result
ofthis stoppage Of supplies? We find
ourselves upon the verge of winter, and
almost the entire stock consumed. How
