and is little inclined TO embon point, weighing
575 pounds. She was born in Detroit, Mich,
and grew fat in young ladies' boarding school

and among the guests were several officers of
the police force, under the command of Captain
Kale, of the Fourteenth precinct. All the pre-
ferred guests were deliberately dressed The
toilet of the New Zealander especially adj
mIred. He was neatly atI1red in an African
buffalo-skin and d dozen strings of clam shells,
had blue and red stripes across his forehead and
down his nose, and looked like chrome. The
Clrcassian girl had her head Of hair, which is
about the size of currant bush. done up in the
POmpad0ur fashion, which made 1t look much
higher than IL was.
AT $50 O'Clock the preliminary shocks OF a
supposed earthquake were followed by the an
nouncement that the fat girl was coming. She
wore scarlet silk dress, adorned with flowers,
ana carried a bouquet. Her face was wreathed
with smiles Her shoulders and arms were a
shade lighter than her dress. At her right arm
was a modest and lnconspieDous youth, who
might weigh anywhere from eighty-fve to nine
ty-seven pounds. His face was beardless. He
was said to be twenty -0ne, and did not look
older than eighteen. The bridal party took up
their grand march to the altar AS the pair
passed over the room the floor sank half way
into the cellar. The tattOOed prince and the
emaciated Circassian slave came next to them.
followed by the living skeleton and the Zulu
princess. The spider-man, the man flute, the
man who never stole umbrella, the woman
who never wanted new bonnet, and the other
curiOsitIes, closing with the wild New Zealander,
from Thompson street. made up the bridal train
The marriage ceremony was reformed on the
stage by minister. Two baskets of flowers
were presented to the bride from the (Which Of
Wall street." The owners of the museum gave
her 5000 bridal present, and the museums
employees presented her with a gold watch and
chain. bridal supper given on upper
floor of the museum. and In the dance which fol-
lowed the bride waltzed like a fairy.

WEISS BEER.
Commissioner of Revenue Evans Says 1t Is
Fermented LIQUOR,

Commissioner of Revenue Evans Says 1t Is
Fermented Liquor.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue Evans has written letters to the
attorney for the weiss beer manufacturers, in
reply to brief filed some days ago by the latter
urging reconsideration of the Commissioners
decision with regard to bottling weiss beer from
stamped packages. declining to reopen the ques-
ton, and reaffirming his former decision. He
says that after a careful examination of the ar
guments submitted, he has reached the conclu-
sion that weiss beer is, anquestionably, fer
mented liquor, and, such, comes within the
scope OF the statute relating to the removal
OF fermented liquor from stamped
packages He says, also, he understands that as
a matter of practice beer is not bottled from
barrels, but dumped from them into vat and
other ingredients added and that it Is then bot
tied. On this point he says: sit is perfectly APP
parent that DO tax is paid upon the beer at albu6
that your clients pay taxes on mixture, about
One-halt OF One-third as great in volume while
In process of making as it will be when it be-
comes beer" He adds: $50 that, meeting you
upon the ground presented in your brief, 1t
seems TO me to be perfectly clear case, it ap-
pearing that weiss beer is fermented liquor,
as has been decided by my predecessors: that IN
stead of the weiss beer men having grievance,
they have been so far favored as to be permitted
to pay taxes upon only about one-half the beer
they actually make, this result being accom-
pliShed by their STAN ping not what is beer, but
beer will be ultimately made by
the addition OF other Ingredients"
He further says: "If your clients bottle weiss
beer from barrel upon which stamps have
been affixed there will be DO violation 0f law"
The Commissioner, lie says, has no power to dis
pense with any provision on behalf of anv one
because 1t imposes hardships some individ-
ual or industry, such relief being only TO be had
from Congress. He informs the attorney that
the district attorney has heen directed to facli-
tate the trial of The pending case SO the ques-
ton involved may be settled.
