CLIMBER OF COMMERCE.

Resolutions of Respect for the Late Mayor
NIaxfield and Sheriff Becht---The Full
Question for Manufacturing.
Immediately upon the assembling of the
chamber of commerce yesterday morning,
Gen. Sibley offered the following resolutions
which were unanimously adopted:
The chamber of commerce, representing the
business men of St. Paul sincerely lamentlng
in common with all classes of citizens the de-
mise, within the past week, of the mayor OF the
city, do resolve as follows. tG-wit:
First-The recent death of Hon. John L.
Maxfeld is to be regarded as public calamity
to the State at large, and especially to the mu-
nicipality, of which he the chief magis-
trate.
Second-During the years the late mayor
has occupied that position, the citizens OF st.
Paul could confidently rely upon his unvarylne
| devotion to their interests, on his unswervinG
integrity, on his vigilant and stern repu'sioI
| of wrong doing in every form, and his wise anC
intelligent conduct of public affairs
Third-It was not only as public oiiice7
that the lamented deceased was distinguished
for in all the relations of life, embracing thos'
of husband and father friend and neighbo
and benefactor to the poor and unfortunate, h
was bright and shining light, whose extln
guishment by death will be deeply felt ant
mourned by one and all of our citizens.
Fourth-The secretary is instructed to EN-
| body these resolutions in the proceedings O.
| the chamber and to transmit copy thereof t.
| the family of the deceased, accompanied by
respectful expression of profound sympathy OF
the part of the board, with them in their grea
| bereavement.
Gov. Marshall offered the following. whicl
were also unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, The death of Major J. G. Becht
sheriff of Ramsey county, and a member Q
this chamber, has bereft his family of a kim
protector and this community of a valuabl
citizen and faithful public officer,
RESOLVED, That this chamber enter upon it
journal this token and testimonial of the hig
regard in which the deceased was held by hi
associates in this chamber, and tender to tn
family of the deceased our heartfelt sympath
in their irreparable loss.
John M. Gilman, G. E. Bell and Geo. W
Lamson were elected members of the boar
to fill vacancies.
The question Of fuel for manafacturin
being brought up, Capt. Rhodes said that b
the aid of Capt. Davidson the Northwestern
Fuel Co., were prepared to deliver in S
Paul Stacked coal at $1.75 per ton. The
were also delivering in large lots a goo
article of bituminous coal for $50 per tor
It had been demonstrated by experime1
that four tens of this coal was equal I
eight of the Iowa coal. 1t came from abol
fifty miles below St. Louis, and was in uf

to death. A set of harness and small
quantity of feed was destroyed. The total
loss will be about $3.50.
The origin of the fire is not definitely
known. One story goes that tramp, con-
siderably under the influence of liquor, call
ed on lady next door and asked for pair
of boots. His request was refused, when he
left muttering curses and threats. He was
seen in the vicinity of the barn q few mo
ments before the flames we're discovered.
Another story is that number of boys were
playing in the vicinity, when one of them
carelessly applied match to some hay pro
truding through the cracks of the barn
| causing the confagration.

readily accorded to her, and she left the home
OF her youth, perhaps forever. From this
moment the news spread rapidly from tongue |
to tongue, and s3still the wonder grew" The
relatives of Miss Wise visited the license
clerks Office and found the record as we
have givenit DIR. Wise wrote to DR.. Wendte
to know if he had performed the ceremony,
and received an affirmative reply, accom-
panied by the assurance that he was unaware
that he was performing any ceremony out
of the ordinary. Indeed, DR.. Wendte stated
to an Enquirer reporter, last evening, that
the ladys cast of countenance seemed any
thing but strongly Jewish to him. He was
reluctant in giving information, but stated
that the parties came to him in walking
costume at about nine O'Clock, and that
there were no witnesses to the rite but him
self.
Miss Helen Wise is the third daughter and
fifth child of DR.. Rabbi Wise. one of the
most learned and best beloved of the Hebrew
clergy In this country. She is of medium
| height and slight though full and graceful
! figure, and has eyes that seemed to casual
observer dark blue, in keeping with hair
that marks her as neither decided brunette
nor yet blonde. Her Hebrew type is not
strongly marked, and yet more SO than that
of her brothers, the family being of
Bohemian origin, and handsome in the
broadcast sense of that word. She is pretty,
if not beautiful, and more than usually &C.
complished, being pianist of good attain
ment, and speaking German and French, the
former perfectly and the latter fuently.
Probably she never looked better in her life
than when seen entering the dining room OF
the Gait house last evening. She wore a
neat gray walkingdress, with close-itting
jacket, pearl pendants in her ears, and q
gold breast-pin, seemingly college badge
at her throat. This was her wedding dress
and as bride of twenty-she is just COM
pleting her twentieth year-it became hel
we'll. She has been favorite in her home
and an ornament to her social circle, anc
any man might be proud to call her wife
So seemed to the groom, who sleek and lik'
a bridegroom in wedding garrlets, too, wa
a picture of manly beauty. Whatever Mr.
Molony's enemies may say of him in thi
episode of his life, they all admit him to b.
handsome fellow, well calculated to turl
any girls head, and it may turn out that
with this new departure to date from, tn
;. runaway bride will have no cause to regre
2 the step taken, even though it causes tenn
8 porary estrangement from her family ant

y among orthodox Israelites follows the cours
