SHARP CONTRAsT-MAGINE THE BRIDES FEELINGs
From the st. Louis Republican.
Last Wednesday morning at the Church Of st.
John Nepomuk, on the corner Of 11th and Soulard
streets, there was an occurrence of singular, and.
to most people, awful sOlemnity. At O'Clock there
was high mass celebrated, at which were married
young couple. When the ceremony was nearing
Its close, the bride and groom, with their attending
bridemaids and grOOmsIpen kneeling on the steps
Of the altar, and the church crowded with their
friends and relatives, the church bell pealed forth,
not the merry marriage chime, but the slow and
dOlOrOuS toll for the dead. To the door of the
church there came a hearse, and into the middle
aisle, down which the newly welded ones were
compelled to pass there was brought the long bier
with all its SOmber display
When they had received the blessing of the
priest the BRIDE and groom turned, and In moving
TO the door OF the church. had to separate and pass
one on either side of deaths PEDESTAL In the choir
the organ trembled with the joyous strains OF the
wedding march; in the bellfry the iron throats
beched forth the monody Of death; at the door, in
place OF the coach which was to convey those who
had just been made one to the festive joys OF q
wedding breakfast, there stood the vehicle which
conveys all that Is left of man after dissolution to
the dark and narrow house.

A REFORM PROPOSED BY SCHOOL TRUSTEE WARNER.
AS stated in yesterdays STAR, Mr.. Warner offered
at the meeting of the school board Thursday even
ing, resolution asking the Commissioners to take
some measures looking to the suppression Of pool
rooms near school buildings. Mr.. Warner said that
good many people had called his attention to the
fact that pool rooms were being established near
the public schools He mentioned one near the
High school building which, it was said, was doiny

Mr.. Warner stated that he referred In his resolu-
tton to pin pool and other pool games where boys
and others played. The games were free, the boys
or set OF boys losing being required to pay for the
playing was not gambling. and had been
so decided in the Police Court. He did approve
the adoption OF such resolution, unless it could be
shown that the existence OF these pool gaines was
interfering with the schools. Otherwise it was a
matter outside the province Of the school board.
He was In favor Of anything that would improve
the morals OF the youth, but, as trustee, did not
want to go outside OF school matters
Mr.. Warner continuing, said that generally this
pool playing was done by boys The Commission
ers, he thought, could make it a condition, in
granting license, that the man could not Carry on
business If he keeps free pool table.
After some discussion as to the proprtety OF max
Ing any recommendation on the subject to the
commissioners, Mr.. Warner accepted suggestion
OF Mr.. Smiths to amend his resolution SO as to
quest the Commissioners to recommend legislation
which would prohibit minors from playing.
