Married.

On Thursday the 23rd. at the residence of
the Brides parents, on Blanco river, about
six miles from town, by Elder Chenoweth,
Mr.. Henry Leinewebber and Miss Mary
Mohler, were married about o'clock in the
evening Two attendants, Mr.. John Cape
and Miss Annie Box. The Bride was most
elegantly dressed in pure white, trimmed off
in white satin and white flowers with a
wreath and long trailing veil. The Brides
maid was dressed in white, trimmed with
pale pink ribbon, flowers and silver beads for
ornaments. After the ceremony was over
we were all invited to supper, and the table
was most splendidly laid with everything
heart could wish. After eating and drinking
many toasts with the happy pair, we repair
ed to the dancing room which was most
wonderfully enjoyed until broad daylight.
1t was time long to be remembered by
many of us, and we now wish them O long
and happy life, and may their pathway be
strewn with flowers. A FRIEND.

MAJOR H1Nzn.-The example of this
gentleman as self made man is instruct
i've and encouraging. We quote again from
the writer from whom we quoted last week
There is probably no man in the state, up
to the time of retirement from the construc-
ton departments of Texas railroads to en-
gage In mercantile pursuits, that had super
intended the construction of as many new
railways and assisted in organizing their OPP
erative departments as Mr.. Hinzie. When
the Union Pacific was started, and CON-
pleted at least twenty yaars before almost
any politician ever dared breathe a hope of
its successful completion, Col Hinzie was
at the front from there clear down through
the western railroad system. We find him
on the Great Northern in Texas and finally
at the front on the International. From
there, in consequence Of increased family
cares and an accumulation of q snug little
sum by good business habits, he engaged IN
merchandising in Palestine, 10 become in Q
very short time its most successful mer-
chant, and 10 take rank among the mer-
chant princes of the state.
