at the residence of the brides parents Mr.
and Mrs. Christian Stark, by Rev. q. G. Pol.
lock, Mr.. j. q. Fowler and Miss Sadice
Stark. all of Mankato.
The contracting parties to this very
appropriate contamination are both well
known in Mankato, and enjoy the re-
spcct and good will of all who know
them.
The groom, Mr.. Fowler, has resided
here for the past twenty-five years, and
during that time has held many places
Of public trust-for six successive years
holding the office of Register of Deeds,
and to his credit be it said made one of
the most efficient and trustworthy off
GERS the county ever had. At present
he is engaged in the general mer-
chandiZe business with his brother, and
has the happy faculty of making host
of friends and customers in building up
a splendid business.
The bride, Miss Sadiee Stark is a
young lady of excellent business quail
fications, is accomplished, and alto
gether an agreeable companion. For
the past two years she has been engaged
in conducting millinery store here, and
through her affability enjoys a splendid
patronage.
And now, as these young folks LAUGH
out upon the tossing wave of matrimon-
ial bliss, it is the earnest wish of all
who know them that their path may be
strewn with pleasantries, and that they
may be spared the universities. tribula-
tions and family jars too often showerrd
upon the human family.

The N. T. W. AS Entertainment !.

tainmcnt Tuesday evening in the Con-
gregational church. The little folks
were greeted with good house. II the
character and size of the audience may
he taken as an indication of the appre-
ciation of our citizens of the labors of
the W. c. 7. U. and of sympathy for
their work, the ladies have good reason
to take courage and go on. The length
and variety of the programme show that
those who have had the direction of the
society lave been busy workers. The
exercises Tuesday evening were under
the charge of Mrs. Warren, assisted by
Mrs. Palmer and Miss WEIGH.
We will not specify any of the parts
that were well done, some of them were
however, and all, with two or three ex-
ceptions, were very creditable, alike to
the little speakers and the ladies in
charge.
The effort to teach the children the
evils resulting from the use of strong
drinks and to train them up in the prac-
tice of temperance principles, is an eff.
fort in the right direction. The fruit
may not be seen to-day, but in a few
years it will make itself manifest in the
sober and happy lives of our children.
Parents, whatever may be their practice,
cannot afford to ignore this temperance
work among the children. As they
value the future welfare of their chill
dren, let them do what they can to en-
courage and further the good work.
We give the programme to encourage
the little folks and to inform our citizens,
who had not the pleasure of being pres
ent Tuesday evening, of the work that
is being done among the children of our
city. 1t ought, perhaps, to he added
that there is nothing sectarian about
this work. Children of all denomina-
become members of this society.

Dividing Coal transportation Ru-
mOred strike.

CUMBERLAND Nd. Feb. 27.-The
Maryland Coal Company has effected
an arrangement whereby a portion
of the coal shipped by them over the
Georges Creek and Cumberland Road
is to be sent to Underwater over the
Baltimore and Ohio Road. The ar-
rangement went into effect tosday
being the first coal received for ship
by the Baltimore aud OHIO Road
from the Georges Creek and Cumber-
lard Roads.
1t is lmored here to-day that the
miners of the Clearfield region had
struck for an advance from fifty to
sixty-fiSe cents a ton in mining coal.
1t will be remembered the miners of
the Cumberland region recently
made an appeal to the Clearfield
miners asking them to take this
step, to bring the rate the same as
that of the Cumberland region.

Criticism From an Unexpected
AwARaeE

Mr.. Hugh Hastings, editor and pro
prietor of the New York Commercial
AdSertiSer, is the personal and politi-
cal friend of President Arthur and
ex-senator Conkling, and yet that
paper says editOrially
"The nominations made by Presi-
dent Arthur Friday are not well re-
ceived by the press of the country so
far as heard from. The Commercial,
when he entered on the duties OF
President, said il he would act on his
own judgment, and act promptly, he
would act wisely. He has failed TO
do this, and has erred. He has failed
to act promptly and courageously,
and has lost ground. There is nothing
the American people admire more
than courage and firmness in their
public men. Under all the circum-
stances, it was not the part of wisdom
to nominate Mr.. Conkling for an office
that he did not wish, and which no
true friend would advise him 70 ac>
eept. 1t was ill,judged to nominate
Mr.. Sargent for the Berlin Mission,
when he had been from all accounts
fixed upon for a member of the
Cabinet. 1t is an exhibition of weak
ness we did not expect from the Presi-
dent. Now that his enemies see him
tiuttering and frightened under their
tire they will be encouraged to go on.
We regret the Presidents mistake.
We had hoped for better things"
