When board of eminent physicians
and chemists announced the discovery
that by combining some well-known
valuable remedies the most wonderful
medicine was produced, which would
cure such wide range of diseases that
most all other remedies could be dis.
pensed with, many were skeptical; but
proof of its merits by actual trial has
dispelled all doubt, and to-day the dis
coverers of that great medicine, Hop
Bitters, are honored and blessed by all
as benefactors.

An Ohio Girl Marries a Chinaman.

A very interesting event took place
at Wesley Chapel, it being the second
wedding in this city in which China
man and an American woman were the
contracting parties. The groom was
Wan Koon, better known as Ben Hope
Lee, and the bride Laura Cleary. They
were attended by Wah Hing, Wah Lee,
zee Wing, Jang Gu and Jow Hong,
and Misses Helen and Belle Cleary,
sisters of the bride, and Miss Ida Davis,
of Chillicothe. The ceremony was per-
formed in the chapel by the Rev. A. c.
Hirst, in the presence of large audi
ence. The affair soon became noised
about on the street, and there was o
great rush of people to the church, but
most of them arrived after the cere-
mony was over. There was, however,
general promenade around to con-
gratulate the parties. During the cere-
rnony the mother of the bride was
greatly affected, and it was throughout
serious ceremony, but after it was
over all were gay and lively. The
bride is eighteen years old and was born
in Ohio. Her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
James Cleary, live at 527 East Friend
street. Mr.. Cleary is plumber by
trade, and the family is in good circum-
stances for laboring people. The bride
has been working in her husbands
laundry for the past year, and she is
highly spoken of by all who know her.
Ben Hope Lee was dressed in full con.
ventional style, and the bride in black
silk with lace trimmings. The presents
were very rich, consisting of seven
stone cluster diamond ring, worth 500,
from the groom; diamond ear.drops and
gold bracelets from Jow Hong, and
others of less value. The brides pres
ents in the way of jewelry were rich.
She wore an elegant gold watch and
chain, which her husband had present.
ed her some time ago. After the con-
graduating at the chapel, the party re-
paired to Schneiders restaurant. There
were twenty guests at the tables, and
an abundance was served, including
wines from all parts Of the globe. The
Chinese rice wine was pronounced the
best ever tapped in this locality. The
parents of the bride are Catholics, and
it is stated that Ben Hope Lee will
espouse that faith. There was social
gathering at the home of the parents of
the bride in the evening. They will
board at the Capital Hotel. The hus.
band has an ample bank account for the
future. columbus (O.) Journal

So long as there are ills to which flesh is heir,

billions of Matches.

Europe, continental and insular, con
sumes two millions of matches daily
Assuming that each several act of igni-
ton occupies the brief period in one
secondhand we have reason to believe
it is rarely performed in shorter time
1T will be obvious to every ready reck-
oner that five hundred and fifty-fve
thousand hours of each successive day
are spent by the inhabitants Of Europe
in striking matches. There is food for
much speculation in the fact that
Europeans dispose Of nearly sixty-four
years per day in scraping tiny sticks,
tipped with some infammable compost
ton. It is also interesting to learn that
four hundred thousand cubic yards Of
timber and four hundred and twenty
thousand pounds weight of phosphorus
are in annual request for the manufac-
ture of the seven hundred and thirty
thousand millions of matches used up
by Europe in year.
