A Very Short Honeymoon.

From the Chicago Times
Thursday evening last e.. CaIlstrom and
Miss Hattie Eggers We're married at the
residence Of the brides parents, in Lock
ridge, Jefferson county. Some OF the
guests We're impressed With the idea that
the bride participated in the proceedings
with some reluctance, The couple tool, 4
night train west, and upon then arrival at
Ottumwa the bride recognized an old time
lover in the person Of Freight Conductor
Sedgewick. Carlstrom is a Swede of un
prepossesSlng appearance, and Hattie
proceeded to demonstrate her dislike for
the nuptial knot just tied through the
instrumentality, as she claims, of her pa
rents, by throwing herself into the arms
Of the more attracting conductor and de
handing that he rescue her from the OBJ
legation. The latter confessed his will
lingness, but seemed afraid of the legal
results, and the bridal party came to
CreSton The bride, however, remained
here only few hours, when she took the
returning train for the parental roof.
There she was met by her indignant pa
rents, who spurned her from them, the
mother even going 50 far as to compel
her to return to her legal but unloved
spouse, by accompanying her daughter
to this place, where they arrived this
morning. The undaunted freight con-
ductor had preceded them, and to-day,
by the aid OF City Attorney Patterson,
arrangements have been made by which
the bridegroom surrenders,

are complaining OF scarcity of money, at

dollars were drawn out OF the Savings

Work is still continued on the fortilica-

why or wherefore. And when there Is ad-
ded to this, the failure of the Dominion to
make arrangements for mail to connect
with Puget Sound, as stipulated in those
terms. the people here cannot be blamed
for calling the "powers that be-" hard

In what way the presence of the
silver dollar embarrasses resumption,
is clearly shown by an analysis of the
subject presented by the Chicago
Times. The law authorizes the secre-
tary of the treasury to redeem green
backs after the 1st January next
eitherin silverdollars or in gold coins.
But will the silver option work in
practice? This question has already
arisen to vex the cabinet. \ Wash
ington special explaing the manner
in which the secretary is embar-
rassed: "Shall pay out gold alone,
and hold the silver in reserve lest the
gold should become eXausted:" he
asks. "No," the cabinet respond.
THAT would tend to induce IA rush
for gold. You must betray no fear,
and hold no silver fund in reserve.
That wouldspoil everything" "Shall
| pay out the silver frat:' the secre-
tary then asks. "No, is the response.
That would be resuming upon the
silver basis. 1t would place a pre-
mium on gold, and drive it out Of
circulation entirely" Shall | give
holders their choice between gold
