Last evening, at 81 Adams street,
Mr.. L. G. Pape, of Corinth, Miss, was
married to Miss Florence Bloom, Of
this city, Rabbi Samfeld performing
the impressive and beautiful ceremony
according to the Jewish service. Mr..
Pape is with the well known house Of
Rubel, Seckels & Co., Of Corinth, and
is a gentleman Of intelligence, high
standing, easy manners and great pop
ularity. He has won for his bride
one of the loveliest young ladies in
Memphis, one who will bring light,
happiness and lifelong contentment
to his home. Many friends congratu-
lated them last evening upon the con
summation Of the happy event, and a
thousand good wishes follow them, to
which those Of the LEDGER are added
in all sincerity.

The usual big Monday morning
crowd was conspicuous for its absence

for allowing waste water to stand in

The familiar face Of old Jim Gas.
tillo, who has been a constant appli-
cant for a position behind the bars.
and usually successful, was again in
court to-day.
John Green, James Hall and John
Mulligan, three very bad men, with
very bad clothes and very thin stories,
were given free passes to that pleasant
resort, President Island. They will
remain two weeks, amusing themselves
in plucking the feecy staple.
Squire Quigley had a quartette Of
innocent DRINKS to try this forenoon,
whom he allowed to depart with a set
phrase: don't let it happen again.
The last case was a nan who plead in
excuse that his family had been sud
denly increased the night before
twin girls. The Squire looked at him
absentmindedly a moment and then
exclaimed; "Gol but mind, don't let
it happen again"
AbOotblack who persists in shining
EN- up" directly in the entrance ia
hotels and other public places was
taken in yesterday and fined two dol.

attitude, with a brick in his hand and
words Of vengeance in his mouth. HI

Larry Jackson, an escaped Missis.
sippi convict, was arrested in the city
yesterday, and will be sent home
to-day.
Mike Garvin, the Confederate con.
stable ofthe Police Court, found bus

obliged to put his Confederate bonds
on the market, much against his will.

bloated bondholder, and smokes moth.
ing but Wo.for-a-nickel cigars.

The heavy rain Saturday night
proved to many a HORSEPOWER that
there were leaks in the roof. These
roofs should be repaired at once by
Harry j.. Rice, the timer, 80 Gayoso
street.
Now that winter is coming on, the
children should have their feet pro-
tected by good shoes. Sloan, 221
Main, has a large assortment of shoes
for boys and girls, suitable for the
season. These shoes are in the latest
and best styles, and are offered at
prices which cannot be undersold by
any other shoe house.
n certain stlngy young man called
at a young lady's house last night to
escort her in the rain to a wedding
without providing a carriage for her
or even an umbrella. The younglady
looked in dismay at the situation
which promised ruin to her beautiful
dress and ornaments, but like a true
heroine she went to the wedding and
enjoyed herself the gayest of the gay.
In all probability the stingy young
man will be allowed hereafter to go in
a crowd by himself, as the young
ladies Of his set will no doubt claim
a previous engagement" when he
s%olicits the honor of accompanying
them anywhere.

Many people of all shades, styles

His Owner Sued for n Purse He
Took Dnring she Summer.

In the Circuit Court this forenoon
the East Of Dan 0'Donnel VS.. ]. H.
Martin was on trial. Martin is the
owner Of the horse, Daylight, which
took second money, a purse of$i25, at
a race at Olympic Park, during the
summer. 0'Donnel claims that he
was approached by Martin prior to the
races AMI asked for the loan of $40
entrance fee required for Daylight,
and hal he advanced that amount, but
was to have whatever money Daylight
earned less the entrance fee and $40,
$50 in all. After the race, when
0'Donnel applied TO the shareholders
for the purse won by Daylight, his
claim was disputed by Martin. Hence
the suit. The purse is held by the
Association until the case is decided.
