Crystal Wedding.

Last Friday evening about fifty of R. G.
Kigers friends gathered at the Occidental by
reason of previous arrangement, and about
half-past 8 marched enmasse to his house
and demanded admission. The door was
promptly thrown open and Mr.. and Mrs.
K surrendered at discression. The house
was filed till hardly standing room was
left unoccupied. Reuben being arrayed in
his hunting suit was arraigned before judge
McFadden who. administered some reproof
for his making war on ducks and geese and
demanded a truce interspersing his admon-
itions with compliments together with the
hope that they might live to see their
children even to the fourth generation.
Mrs. Kiger gracefully and naivly responded,
giving all refroof to Mr., K. as just deserts
taking the compliments as her share Prof.
Hawthorn with few well timed remarks
presented crystal and silver toilet set in
behalf of himself and several others. The
following is a list of the presents and their
