The Ferry.

Shortly after one o'clock this afternoon
the Ferry boat, J. W Spencer, threw off
its winter anchorage and fioated out into
the stream. Two long whistles were
sounded as it parted the waves on its way
up the stream. This brought numerous
people to the levee, who watched with
pleasure the arrival of the boat. Capt
Cameron and his men were busy all fore
noon getting the ice away from the dock,
in order to make landing. Everything
was in good order this afternoon, and the
ferry commenced making regular
trips The ARGUS is glad that
the river is again free from ice, and
the ferry boat is able to run. 1t has been
inactive for MANY months, and the people
have been placed at great inconvenience
thereby, to say nothing of the loss to the
owners for its idleness. During these
many months the people have been com
PEELED to pay hack hire and walk over the
bridge; but now this state of affairs will
be changed, and the ferry viii act as a
public benefactOr. Long may it float on

Late yesterday afternoon lively run
away occurred on Moline avenue. A
delivery wagon was coming towards the

Twenty third street, the street car came
passing by. The team became scared at
the car and started out on a dead run.
The driver threw down the lines and
jumped on: behind in the mud. The
team kept ON running down Third avenue
and were not stopped until they reached
the glass works. And the strangest palt
about the running was that neither the
horses or the wagon were damaged bit.

Married in a Hardware Efnra

A rather novel wedding took place this
morning in E. W. Spetcer's hardware
store. A young man named Blenkinsopp,
Of Gable, entered the store with q young
lady, and after buying quite bill of
goods, he enquired the way
to the court house Mr. Spencer
suspected what was wanted, and asked
him if he intended to get married. He
said he did, and so Mr.. Spencer took him
down to the county clerks office and pro-
cured the necessary document. On re-
turning to the store Rev Pearcc was sent
for, and he soon arrived. He looked
rather surprised when he discovered what
was wanted, and asked the couple
to go to the parsonage. They proposed
to have the knot tied then and there
however, and their wishes were accord
ingly complied with The brides name
was Miss Jennie Walker, also of Cable
Mrs. VIM. Blackburn, who happened to
be in the store at the time. and Mr..
Spencer acted as witnesses to the cere-
mony. The young couple went their
way, apparently as happy as though they
had been rendered wedding reception.
