LIGHT AND DARKNESS.

Il
1t has ever been admitted that
darkness is u condition fraught
with crime. 1t has been proved in
many cities that the general light
ing of streets during the night has
diminished crime, and by lessening
the cost OF criminal proceedings
and the demand for police officers,
an actual saving of expenses has
been accomplished. The great
hindrance to the universal light
ing of the streets has been the cost.
Science and the inventive genius of
man have long and earnestly
striven TO discover some efficient
and cheap means Of producing
light, but as yet the cheapest
means at our command Is gas, the
cost OF which in this city is so great
that common prudence forbids that
general lighting of the streets
which is desirable. The price
charged in this city for gas is, in
my judgment. from its cost in 9th.
er cities, too high if not exorbitant.
1t is to be hoped that q reduction
in the cost of Illuminating the
streets may by some means be OBJ
tained SO that more light and of
greater illuminating power can
be provided at a less cost than the
present meagre supply.
WELCOMES THE COMING, SPEEDS
THE PARTING CoUNCILMEN.
In closing this message, 1 take
pleasure in saying to the gentle
men whose time in this Council
has expired, that in our official in
tercourse / have received from
them the utmost courtesy. To the

this Council has just begun, I beg
leave to say that l look forward to
our official labors with pleasure
chastened by knowledge Of their
arduous character.
As Mayor of this city ask your
aid in the discharge of my duties.
l trust that our association will be-
productive of mutual respect and
good will, and at the close of our
term will leave nothing ~ regret
in the way we conducted ourselves
to each other and to the beautiful
city which has honored US so high

An interesting wedding ceremony
took place at st. Mary's Episcopal
cathedral, Poplar street, shortly after
eight o'clock last night, the bride and
groom being Miss Marie E. Moffat,
for several years past a resident of this
city, and and Mr.. Harry w. Pierce,
son Of the Right Rev. Bishop Pierce,
of Arkansas. A large number Of
friends and acquaintance of the hap
py couple assembled in the
church, which was brilliantly
Illuminated for the occasion. As
the wedding party entered the vesti-
bule of the church. Mendelssohn's
exquisite bridal air resounded through
the sacred edifce, while the Reverend
George G. Harris, dean, clothed in his
sacerdotal robes, arose from his seat
near the chancel, and stepped to the
altar front to receive the expectant
bride, her mother and father and the
groom, there being no bridesmaids,
or other attendants. The first part
of the ceremony was performed
by DR.. Harris, after which
the couple stepped nearer to the altar,
when Bishop Pierce, the groom's
father, also in his sacred robes, arose,
and in a clear, resonant voice, tied the
bridal knot, by completing the cere-
mony, all according to the beautiful
service of the Episcopal church. The
united pair then moved toward the
church door, side by side, followed by
the brides parents, the melodious
wedding march again sounding forth,
while congratulations were showered
upon the newly welded at every tread.
Afterward a pleasant repast laid
at theresidence of the couple, 72Court
street, was partaken of by a party of
select friends and relatives. A fine
display of valuable and appropriate
presents both ornamental and useful
was much admired, the contributors
being the parents ofthe couple, togeth-
er with Mr.. t. NJ. Moffat the brides
father and Mr.. j. D. Milburn. Mr.. T.

Harry w. Pierce, whose marital
career begins under auspices SO pleas
ing, has been a resident here for ten
years past, and for a long period has
labored in the cotton trade for the in
terests of the well known buyers Won
Gundell & Mayhoff. The bride, whose
appearance last night was unusually
has resided here for half a
dozen years or more, and she holds
rank as one ofthe best and sweetest
Of her sex. A thousand friends wish
the pair a long and blissful career.
