Wedding Bells.

Mr.. C. c. Hartwig, OF this city, was united
in marriage last Tuesday evening 1t st. Jo-
seph, Missouri. to Miss Clara Weidmaier. .
most accomplished and beautiful young lady.
The ceremony was performed At the residence
of the brides father, Bartholomew Weida-
ma Ter, prominent citizen Of that city. BY the
Rev. Chas. Ncstel, pastor Of the First Evan
gelical church. The st. Joseph papers notice
the happy event at length. The bride was
very handsomely attired, and was the admired
Of all. The groom appeared in conventional
black. The bridal offerings were numerous,
and many OF them elegant and costly. A
splendid supper was served to the select but
large company, and the festivities were kept
up till late hour, when the whole party
accompanied the newly mated to the midnight
tram, where congratulations and well wishes
were showered upon them without reserve.
After spending two or three days In Kansas
City Mr.. IL. and his bride arrived in Wichita
Saturday night. Forty or fifty ladies and
gentle men met them at the depot, whence
they all repaired to the parlors OF the Pacific
House, where the balance Of another night
was made to resound with joyous laughter and
repariee.
MIR. Hartwig is brother OF Major II. Z. W.
and Colonel Ernst F. Hartwig, prominent cit.
izans OF ST. Joseph. He arrived in this coun'
try from Germany in 1879, since which time
he has been attending school. He is young
man OF industry and large social qualities,
and as the life protector of the sweet girl and
more beautiful wife we wish him joy.

Mines i'm DanviIIe District.

1t takes hang-on-ativeness to stay by
mines as Messrs. Mansfield, Miller, Nc
Avoy and Daily have done in their possess
sion of the Danville mines. But they
weathered through, and, although they
know they have not got near the real worth
of the mines in coin, still they are con-
tented with the results and that is enough.
Mr.. Phillips, Mr.. Sargent and Mr.. Trippell
are just in from the mines to pay the pur-
chase money to the first named gentlemen,
and although Sundays storm soaked 'em
up nicely, and they had to sleep in wet
clothes, wet blankets, etc., they came up
smiling yesterday morning. 1t is the in
tention Of the new company, we believe, to
get out ore this winter, N they already
have a ten-stamp mill to put in there early
in the spring, if it should be deemed adj
visable. They now have a 13-inch vein of
remarkably rich ore, some Of it assaying as
high as 81 800 per ton. With plenty of
wood and water handy, and such pros
poets, what more could a company of rich
BostoDians want in this world?

Removal.

Mrs. Higley, formerly proprietress of the
Parker House restaurant, has removed to
the American Exchange building, at the
corner of Main and Clark streets, where
she will be pleased to see her old friends
and customers, by giving excellent salts
faction to the citizens Of Eureka Mrs. Hig-
ley has won Il reputation that will win sue
cess for her wherever she may go into the
restaurant business, and in this move of
getting the Exchange, she places herself in
a much more central position and we be-
speak an increase of patronage for her in
the change. To those who have never pat
ronized the lady we say-try the Exchange
for a week or so.

Following is a copy of what Superintcnd-
ent Arlington sent recently to his com
pany in San Francisco:
Since our letter of the 18th instant we
have rearranged the numbers of the levels.
The first level will be at a point about 100
feet from the top of the shaft, which is an
old opening which we have not as yet had
time to place in repair. The second level
POS feet the third level $50 feet the
fourth level 3SS feet, and the fifth we will
commence opening about Monday, will be
about 545 feet. We have made progress in
cleaning out the old levels. 1t will prob
ably take several days longer before we
have them entirely clean. On third level
we have started a crosscut southeast from
a point near the shaft, which crosscut is
now in soft material, the last few feet PEN
e~trating into what appears to be an extern
sive body of iron, with slightindications of
ore. We have also cleared out over 10
feet of the main drift on this level, and
shall start croSscutting on Monday, both
to the north and south, at a point about %
feet west of the shaft. We done but very
little as yet on the fourth level. We find
the quartzite, or foot-wall, on the third
level in the shaft but, singular to relate,
we find no quartzite on the fourth level or
in the bottom of the shaft, both being in
ledge matter.
