An Amusing Bridal Present.

Last night Miss Pauline Sauner was mar
ried to William Strauss at the residence Of
her parents, Justice Adam being the hymenial
priest of the domestic altar. Among the
many bridal presents were two large pump
kins and oh, horror, a cradle containing a
small doll. The latter present was the source
of much amusement After the ceremony the
bridal party enjoyed themselves until late
hour, when they retired, wishing the happy
pair large share Of matrimonial felicity.

He Wanted the Ho,pitnl.

Avagrant called upon DR.. Brnuunagel this
morning and complained that he had a chill
and theft and wanted to be sent to the
hospital. Dr. Braunnagel examined him,
found bis tongue clear, his pulse at TO- and he
was in fair way to be consumpdye Of as
much as he could get. The doctor, however,
offered him medicine, which he declined, and
he became abusive. Nothing would satisfy
him but the hospital, where he could be kept
in idleness and plenty. The doctor handed
him over to the police and he will probably
be boarded at the ciiy'S expense, but II he
wants good diet he will have to work for it.
