THE BRIDE OF A DAY.
A Street Proposal, Hasty Marriage and
Leisure for Repentance.

A young man giving the name of Har-
nv Wilson was arrested in Cincinnati last
week on charge of grand larceny, pre-
ferred by F. A. Refs, son of the proprie-
tor of the Grand Central hotel. Wilson
is but twenty-one years old, and is not
bad-looking fellow. In connection with
his arrest was develOOed q rather roman
tic story of a bridegroom marrying and
being locked up three days later a. .
thief. Not long ago he, although he
claims to be a moulder by trade, was en-
gagged as waiter in Buffers restaurant in
st. Louis. Working in the same place
washing dishes was q handsome German
girl named Annie Runmel, whose mo-
ther resided ut 522 Picket street. He had
the reputation of being an honorable
young man, and from the first it was .
mutual case Of love at first sight. At the
end of three weeks, SO the girl says, he
left the place. A few weeks thereafter
Annie came to Cincinnati to visit her
sister, Mrs. Gilman, who occupies rooms
with her husband in the Grand Central.

would finish the job. So the doc came
in and pa was on the lounge, and when
the doc saw him he said twas lucky he
was called just as he was, or we would
have called an undertaken. He put some
pounded ice on pas head the first thing,
ordered the shirt cut open, and We got
the pants of. Then he gave pa an enc
tic, and had his feet soaked, and pa said,
Doc, if you will bring me opt Of this l
will never drink another drop The doc
told pa that his life was not worth but
ton if he ever drank again, and left about
half pint of sugar pills to be fred into
pa every five minutes. Ma and NE sat
up with pa all day Sunday, and Monday
morning changed the spectacles, and
took the clothes home, and along about
noon pa said he felt As though he could
get up. Well, you never see a tickleder
man than he was when he found the
swelling had gone down go he could get
his pants and shirt on, and he says that
doctor ia the best in this town. Ma says
am q smart boy, and pa has taken the
pledge, and we are all right. Say, you
don't think there is anything wrong in
boy playing it on his pa, once in while,

"Not much you have very likely saved
your pas life. No, sir, joking is all right
when by so doing you can break per-
son of bad habit" and the grocery man
cut chew of tobacco off a piece of plug
that was on the counter, which the boy
had soaked in kerosene, and before he
had fairly got it rolled in his cheek he
spit it out and began to gag, and as the
boy started leisurely out the door the
grocery man said, Look-a-here, condemn
you, don't you ever tamper with my to-
bacco again, or by thunder, I'll maui
you," and he followed the boy to the
door, splitting cotton all the way, and as
the boy went around the corner the gro
Gerry man thought how different joke
seemed when it was on somebody else.
And then he turned to 60 in and rinse
the kerosene out of his mouth, and found
a sign on box of new green apples, as
follows: "Colic or cholera infantum.
You pays your money and takes your
choice"

the signs found two days atterward, when
Topping and q small party from the post
went back for their things. quite large
number was wounded. Just before SON
down the firing ceased and when it be-
came dark, the three whites slipped to
the river and went down ON the ice to
Fort Pease, at which place they stayed
the remainder of the winter.
On the morning of the 18th Orin Ma
son, jeff Thompson and Billy Casio, left
Bakers battle ground, for the Big Horn
river, to take part in the winters wolf
ing. They had their riding and five
pack horses loaded with provisions, am
munition, etc. Their intention was to
go to Topping's camp, but not knowing
its exact location, they went too high up
and came in sight of this river about ten
miles above its mouth. As they came to
the edge of its bottom, about q hundred
Indians came dashing from coulies on
each side and in front. They saw at
once that all they had to hope for, was
to save themselves, so they left their
horses and ran to little washout near
by and from it fired at every Indian that
showed his head. About fifteen minutes
after the fight commenced, Onn Mason,
while raising his head to take aim at an
Indian was hit in the forehead by q bull
let and instantly killed. The other boys
fought on for about three hours, when
the Indians drew of, and the two sur
vivors after burying Mason's body in .
grave dug by knives and hands, took
their weary way back up the river.
Casio was untouched but Thompson had
been hit in the finger by small bullet,
that had cut off the bone but had left the
skin on either side.

fHE WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
Rapid Approach to Completion Of the
Great Shaft.

In 1888, exactly one hundred years
ago, Congress ordered that an equestrian
statue of Washington should be erected
at the National Capital, ito testify the
love, admiration and gratitude of his
countrymen." When the news of his
death, sixteen years later, was received,
the proposed statue was abandoned and
Congress ordered that marble monu-
ment, with suitable inscriptions, be
erected, and that it be $50 designed as to
commemorate the great events of his
military and political life." This resolu-
ton was practically dead letter for over
thirty years. 1t remained unexecutedas
late as 1888, at which time the WASH
ington National Monument Society was
Organized, and the first steps taken to
erect q monument in some other place
than on paper. Chief Justice Marshall
was the first president Of the society. Its
progress was at first very slow. In 1SH
the aggregate of collections and accumu-
lated interest was $s7 900, which amount
was deemed sufficient to justify the go
ciety in beginning the erection of the
monument.
A plan for the monument was adopted
after wide consultation. with experts.
The one selected proposed an obelisk 51S
feet high, and pantheon or base. The
estimated cost of the whole work, in
Guiding the pantheon, was $l,l22'OUD.
The cornerstone was laid on the 4th OF
July. lS4S. In 1876 Congress determined
upon the completion of the monument,
and created joint committee to super
wise the work. -
An appropriation of $500, 600 was made
which enabled the commission to 60 to
work in earnest.
At the close of operations on Decem-
her %, 1882, ninety feet had been added,
arising the shalt to height Of 34O feet.
If the marble can be sobtained from this
time out with the same rapidity it was
delivered the past season. the walls and
pyramidion, or roof of the shaft, can, it
is believed, be completed by July !, 1854,
and certainly by the close ofthc working
season of that year. 1t is estimated that
$3.50 600 will complete the shaft and
pyramidion, as well as the interior stair
case and elevator.

There was q good deal of talking in both

the Senate good deal Of amusement was
caused by the apparently inextricable mix
into which the proceedings got on the reso'

gress Of THE internal revenue tax on tobacco
and cigars. Nearly as bad complication
resulted on the resolution to give "Jef''
Davis the exclusive right to sell cigars and
tobacco in the corridors.
In the House the questions OF convict

In both houses resolutions were intro
