l.IcENsE.-Thc Washington H'p"5lican of
yesterday says:
a Young man from Alexandria county,
Va. entered the clerks office at the City
Hal! few days ago and procured marriage
license for himself and his lance. Alter
performing this solemn duty he went TO
well-known uptown restaurant on Fifteenth
street, where he met a tow friends. Inc
night had nearly waned when the young
man announced his intention of going home.
IN maudlin tones. Before going out, how
ever. he felt for his license and found that it
was gone. When friend who had uncon-
scously used the document as cigar lighter
confessed what he had done the young man
was mad. He had scarcely reached the
sidewalk when close carriage drew up to
the door and his future wife got out. 1t Is
said that the wild, tumultuous burst OF
passion that followed aroused the neighbor-
hood The young man when it was con-
Guided felt sore and the young lady painted
hard. The next day he crept with subdued
ulien into the clerk s office and got another
marriage license. They were married yes
