weeks work to level up its track on the
levee, which is, in some places, considera.
bly, below the grade fixed tor the levee.
The wedding of Mr.. s. w. shumsker
and Miss Anna Ford, which took place
Tuesday evening at the residence of the
| brides parents, was the occasion of much
joy. The house was profusely decorated
! with southern moss, autumn leaves and red
berries. The parlor in which the marriage
took place was filled with works of art, in
wax and plaster. The bridal party stood
under an arch bearing this inscription ::
"God bless this uniou;" immediately under
this was horseshoe of evergreen and red
velvet, with the monogram of the bride and
groom. The inscription and letters we're
of wax and cotton, made by the mother Of
the bride. Mr.. Walter Turnbill, of New
York, acted as groomsman, and Miss Maud
Burnett, cousin of the BRIDE, was brides
maid. The bride looked very handsome in
gray silk and velvet and orange blossoms.
The bridesmaid wore seal brown silk and
velvet. After the ceremony, which was
very impressive, much merriment was
caused in the manner of the congratua-
ti6ns. At 8 o'clock the company pro-
ceeded to the spacious dining room and
psrtook of the feast there provided. The
table and dining room were elaborately
trimmed with flowers, plants, vines and
moss; in the centre of the table was pyra-
md of fruits and vines reaching TO the
chandeliers and from thence to the ceiling.
The cream, which was pronounced by many
to be of the best they had ever eaten, was
provided by Mr.. L. p. Parker, of The Hal
lidsy. At late hour the guests departed
for their homes, feeling that they had spent
very happy evening The presents were
very handsome and numerous, some coming
from New York, Philadelphia, Florida,
Texas and other places. Also many kind
friends in this CITY remembered the happy
couple. At the wish Of the family We re-
frain from publishing a list The orange
blossoms worn by the bride were gift Of
Mrs. Dr. Msrean, of Florida.

TONIGHT.

We have every reason to believe that a
very large audience will be in attendance
at the Opera House tonight and We feel no
hesitation in predicting that The entertain
ment will be the very best of the kind ever
produced in the house. We feel confident
that the encomiums which have been heaped
upon the head of Miss Rigl will be justified
il every particular and that the lady will
establish such firm hold upon the hearts
of her hearers that they will be loath to
give her up,
The plan of the play is such as to exert
the greatest drawing qualities and as it is
story of every dav life, pure and free from
every Objectionable feature, it cannot be
otherwise than interesting and eleva,ing.
Harry Lacy, who is the owner of the play
and manager of the combination, is q
splendid actor and in his interpretations Of
the difficult role of Colonel Graham, the
wealthy Southern Planter has added
greatly to reputation already good,
The company all told number twelve
people, and while not especially large,
makes up in real genuine talent what might
be lacking otherwise.
We glanced over the box sheet at Buder'
last night, and while many good seats re-
main, it presents a very gratifying specta
Gle to those most concerned.

Anna Talk:

Anna Talk
The river town of the American Egypt
will yet be heard from as city of CONNER
cial power and prominence. 1t is the focus
of the least developed and most substantial
regions of the settled west-Southern Hi
nois, southeast Missouri, Northwest Arkan-
sas and western Kentucky. Its communi.
cations both by water and by rail with all
tributary regions, are established. Long
lines of traffic have been unable to pass
within hundred miles without going
through it. Even colored circle of a
hundred miles radius will, when the peo-
pie in it have walked up), support city
Of 1000 population; and since this circle
is broken only to give to its commercial
center longer southern outlook, room is
made for enterprise to double these re-
sources. Unable ever to rival st. Louis or
Chicago, there Is no good reason why Cairo
should not pass Memphis and reach the
grade OF Indianapolis. Its opportunity If,
however, more nearly parallel with that of
Louisville or Milwaukee. The interests of
all this region are closely allied with those
of Cairo, and we are persuaded that these
mutual interests demand a closer relation
ship of trade and news-communicatio than
as yet exists. The city which draws in
forty drummers to its one frst.class hotel
each Sunday, can, Of it wild, supply the
breakfast table of forty counties with the
morning paper, and the stores Of hundred
towns and villages with goods whenever
it has the nerve to try.
All this would be true even though the
city were particularly unhealthy and ex-
posed to floods. But this is not the case
During the great food of 1882 It's business
streets suffered nothing in comparison with
those of any other Ohio river town below
Wheeling; and in point of health it is the
most malgned city on the globe. Cairo has
had misfortunes, which 60 far to excuse the
nerveless state of many Of its citizens; but
it has mine of prosperity to develop which
calls for sagacious intrepidity and patien,
endurance of present hardship. Great oc'
casions find assitude burden, and makes
want of courage, crime.
