A JOURNALISTS WEDDING.
Marriage Of Mr.. Will Fortune and Miss May
Knubbe, at Michigan City.

A special from Michigan City to the Journal,
last night, gives the following particulars of the
marriage of Mr.. William Fortune who is con-
nected with this paper, and Miss May Kuubbe,
of that city:
'At noon, to-day, in the Episcopal Church
Mr.. Will Fortune of the indianapolis Journal,
and Miss May Knuhbe were united in marriage
by the Rev j. j. Faude, the rector, the cere-
mony being in the ordained form of the denomi-
nation. There were as attendants, other than
the ushers, Mr.. F. H. Wilson and Mr.
Elkins, who preceded the party, Mr.. Fortune
and the brides mother, and the bride on the
arm of her father, to the altar, over and around
which were floral decorations, appropriate in de-
sign and tastefully arranged. The attendance
at the church was not large, for the invitations
had been restricted to the intimate friends. Pre-
ceding the ceremony the guests from other
cities were entertained at wedding breakfast
at the residence of Mr. Frederick Knubbe, the
brides father, and after it Mr.. and Mrs Fortune
and their friends left almost Immediately.
They went to Chicago, and thence to Mr..
Fortunes former home in the southern part of
the State, where they will remain few days,i
and then go to Indianapolis for permanent resi- 4
dence. The wedding was altogether unostenta4
tous, but the ceremonies and entertainment
incident thereto were characterized by that
completeness in details and perfect taste, which
always make such occasions the more pleasant
There were numerous rich and appropriate
presents. Among the guests were Miss Evelyn
Colburn, of Detroit; Mr. C. w. Bennett, of
Greencaste; Mr.. H. j. Eddy, Mr.. G. B. Russell,
Mrs. Russell and Miss Lillian Russell, of lndi
annapolis. Numerous congratulatory kilograms
were received from Mr.. Fortunes friends in In
dianapolis and throughout the State.
Mrs. Fortune is young lady whose intellect
ual attainments and amiability have eraced the
society of this city since she first became mem
Der of it. Her friends here unite in those con-
gratulations and wishes for a happy married
life, the sincerity of which cannot be questioned"
The journal, which Mr.. Fortune for several
years has served with credit and honor to hi M
self and the paper alike. adds its heartest con-
CALCULATIONS to those above expressed.

LUCKY TIM.

Tim Flanagan always lived quite high,
For mkt to the roof he had a home;
A laborin' man who kept job,
For Tim was niver a hand to roam.
Wan avening Tim was ploddin home,
His legs wur heavy, his pockets lite;
SEE Tim to himself: The laborer's lot
I'm not regardin with delite.
He slowly trudged along the strate,
When down forninst him on the ground
He spied bundle nately tied.
1t wondered Tim what he had found;
He picked it up wild a cautious hand
Begorral 1t might be a dynamite!
But when he saw twas Bull Dog thin
His heart went thumpin wild deite,
Bedad, SEE Tim, it's the laborin man
Is the lucky mortal after all
It's him as hes his eyes cast down
Picks dainties up the rich let fall;
For if I'd had me wish this mite,
Twas Bull Dog that 1 most desired
TITS Bull Dog fine cut gives delite
To a man that's falin' wake and tired
When dimes are scarce and Bull Dog gone
'Tis thin the world gets lookin' blue;
But not a rason for complaint
Has man wild Bull Dog as his chew.
And Tim was right beyond doubt,
For chewers now on every hand
Agree with Tim that Bull Dog is
The finest chew in all the land.

CAUSES FOR WHICH DIVORCE SHOULD BE GRANTED
NEED OF MORE STRINGENT LAWS.
To me Edft0r Of The Tribune
SIR: | see by quotations from American papers
that attention being called 10 the excessive increase OF
divorce in the United States Wl you kindly permit NE
word on the subect3 II seems. indeed undenabe that
The axy of the divorce laws In many States has led to
postive abuse an abuse which threatens to Overturn
order and morality. Marriage, though not sacrament
for Protestauts is yet an institution worthy of respect
and consideration for II Is still after the experience Of
m the ages the best thing that has been found to protect
the defencees ones the and children. Too great
facility of divorce s from the very nature Of things
favorable TO honorable and dutylOying Ileaves
them at the mercy of unscrupulous and designing
women VINO gain influence such men by fattering
their vanity and panderng to their passions. 1t leads to
the disregard sacred obligations and SETS as it were
preInium on vice. Bameless women, whose lives have
been devoted to their families may thus find themselves
thrust out false and humiatng position at the
when they most need husband care and companion
slim; when the peace of home is most precious.
Divorce should be granted, yes, but only for serious
causes For intdey to the marriage vow, assuredly,
and perhaps also for other grave 0hences such as bTu
tav or ahaDdOnment but the facts should be atested
v credible Witnesses and pronounced upon by cOnsCien
tious Judges That complaint OF ncompatibity or
temper, which In many cases simply means covert
trcachery with all its attendant misercs should never be
valid ground divorce Ii leaves the door open To too
much bad faith The laws must be more stringent, pub
JIG opinion must be more stringent We would preserve
The home the family the moral educator OF the race and
above all the protection Of innocent women and helpless
children g. +. b.
