leaning up against telegraph pole talking

where, one at once launches out
into rhapsody, and mumbles incoherently
and unconSciously of Apollo Belvideres and
a brilliant array of Ulysseses. Broad
shouldered, an open, honest countenanee,
well rounded limbs and generous feet are
characteristics that at once attract the eye
to Howard Morris, and he is the last man
whose presence would allow thought that
with him fear was possible. But in the
face of matrimony all men grow pale and
show signs of nervous debility and Morris
found something in it that he could not
stand up before in cool, calm and collected
manner and whistle Don't Leave Your
Mother, Tom" while he waited for the fell

ship over the Wisconsin Central or COM
peting line.
Howard arrived in the city Monday at
$50 a. m. and. though apparently fresh
and well preserved when he landed, at 10
o'clock he began to show signs of falling
strength. The boys shook him cordially
by the hand and wished him all the joy and
prosperity and all the sunshine and flowers
that the angels were capable of dealing out
to their interiors, when they were in the
mood.

At 11:15 an ashen hue had crept over
Towards face. and one of his friends ac-
cused him of using powder. and asked him
il had taken to wearing corsets yet. This
somewhat stirred UP the manly spirit of
Howard, and he resented the insinuation
with froWn. and kept on entertaining the
ashen hue just as if no remarks had been
made regarding it,
At 1880 he went to dine at the Mer-
Merchants, where he usually stops when
in the city, and reluctantly dropped into a
chair at the table and began to eat dark,
blue grapes in an distracted kind Of way
When the waiter asked for his order,
Howard said:
o, l don't know. I amt very hungry.
Bring me in a cup of hot water and a
wedding tour. No, no, not that; er, let me
see, dish of ice cream. I need strength.
The waiter smiled and filled the order.
Howard soon swallowed the cream and
went down stairs. lighted cigar and put
the hot end in his mouth. He soon
changed the position of the cigar, however

hat down on the bridge of his nose and tried
to sleep. But the tickle goddess wouldn't

At 2:15 he was seen pacing up and down
in front of the hotel with his hat on the
back of his head, his hair looking proudly
up to the sky and his hands crossed behind
his back under his coat tails, which flut-

door and up the street.
In the evening Mr.. Morris and his bride
went out on special car No. AZ for Milwau-

dence, and they were followed by the con-
gratulatlons and well wishes of the army OF
friends that they left behind them.
