Alarmed at the frightful prospect that the
substantial growth of Minneapolis was about
to cease, Hon. Charles A. Pillsbury and Con-
ductor James Phelps have thrown themselves
into the Imminent deadly breach,'' and de-
clared that such things shall not be if they
have to prevent it themselves. Those
claimed by the millers' ring are boys "a pair;
those claimed by the c., M. & st. P. Railway
company are boy and girl (another pair).
And now both Pillsbury and Phelps declare
that the ancient sporting tradition that threes
beat two pair is all a mistake. Mothers and
children doing exceeding welI-but how
about the fathers?

considered that they had right to be reckoned
ami no, doubt supposed tina, a, slight had
been put upon THIN. But the Indiana people
so. when Philip Martz selected such friends as
he thought proper to celebrate his wedding.
those he had omitted to invite determined to
invite themselves. They attended the reception
in body, honoring the happy, couple with q
serenade Of bells. cow horns and lin pans 1t
app ars that the newly married coupl, and
their invited guests were not altogether pleased
with these attentions, and so they took short
AMI very Indianian me hod of getting rid of the
annoyance. They drew their revolvers, took
down their shotguns and fired into the unbid-
den visitors, wounding nine Of them. 1t may be
very pleasant to attend an Indiana wedding,
only one had better be certain that his name is
down in the list of invited guests.
