matter of attending the funeral ceremonies

was found that so many of the members
belonged to other organizations that are to
attend that it would not be worth while for
the board of trade to try to go i'm body.
Accordingly Mr.. Gilbert was appointed a
committee with instructions to communi-

time was given the committee on rules.

A CELESTIAL ALLIANCE.
A Heather Chinee WEEDS a Pretty
German Girl.

Yesterdays sensation was something diff
ferent, decidedly so in fact, something out
of the usual run. For the time being the
return of the jobbers ceased to be remem-
bered and the probable presence of the
burglar was forgotten. Conversation
hinged entirely on the event of the after
noon, which was the marriage of a pretty
little German girl and shapely young
Chinaman.
John, or rather Ham Won Hong, is a
celestial living on the corner of Market and
Sixth streets. He is smart-looking fellow
with a roasted potato complexion and a
No. Q queue. Like all the China
men in st. Paul he is a disciple of the
smoothing iron, lover of the pipe and a
member of the Sunday school class
He is well up in the use of
starch and has gained such a trade
that few weeks ago he was compelled to
secure the services of two girls to help him
out in his washing. One of these was Ger
man girl named Mary Schneider, whose
parents recently came to La Crosse from
the old country. Mary shortly after her
engagement got stuck on Hams address
and Ham in turn lost his heart on the good
looks of Mary. They talked the matter
over and finally concluded to get married.
Accordingly yesterday they fixed up their
toilet and proceeded to procure marriage
license. They visited Clerk Bell, where
Ham made known his mission. The clerk
LOST HIS BREATH
tor the time but shortly recovered. In his
most persuasive manner he tried to con-
vince the girl of the folly Of her course, but
to no purpose. She loved Ham and was
going to marry him. The clerk then re-
fused to give them any license but referred
them to the county attorney. He, however,
said there was no law TO prevent theirma
rage, so the license was granted. The
great difficulty was in finding man TO adj
just the bridal moose. Justice Burgess was
solicited to act, but he declined. Judge
Hanft was then summoned. He visited
the establishment and for forty-five min
utes plead with the girl not to marry the
Chinaman. She was stubborn, however.
and said that Ham had stolen her heart.
She wanted TO marry him, and would do it.
The justice seeing how determined she
was finally consented to marry them, which
he did.
A little later a GLOBE reporter called
and paid his compliments to Mr.. and Mrs.
Hong. The former was surrounded with q
number of his own countrymen, receiving
their congratulations. He later was the
center of curious crowd of women. who
stood off a short distance and talked in an
undertone about the girl as she sat on a
rocking chair near the window. She is a
girl IS years of age, of medium size.
with rosy complexion and dark eyes. She
was looking as happy as only a bride can
look. To the reporter Ham related the ex-
perience OF his courtship and said he knew
she was good woman, so he thought he
would marry her As the reporter pre-
pared to leave he was treated to fine cab
bagio cigar by the smiling representative of
China.
