events Of the season occurred
yesterday at the residence of
Mrs. Smith, corner of Lawrence and Third

Noberly, No., to Miss Mamie Funk, for
merly of Louisville, Kentucky. At $50
o'clock tie guests assembled at the ele
CANT residence of Mrs. Smith. A few
minutes We're spent in arranging the pre-
liminaries after which the candidates for
admission into the mystic order of matri

Here standing under beautiful bell of
cnoice flowers, the future interests of Mr..
Smith and Miss Funk were made one by
Rev. Hodgson, of the First NJ +. church
The ceremony was short but touching and
impressive; after which Rev. Hodgson in
troduced them to their friends as Mr.. and
Mrs Smith. After receiving congratula
lions of friends and partaking of a sump-
tuous supper. few hours were spent in
most delightful social chat, the friends one
by one bidding them goodbye and wish

of life together. The bride was richly and
neatly attired, and looked handsome. She
is the daughter of one of the leading fam
lilies of Louisville. KY, and most anna
BILE young lazy, pretty, good and &C

almost needless TO say anything about
him for he is known 20 be a most pleasant
gentleman, straightforward, honorable,
and of an untarnished reputation. At

chusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co. Mr..
and Mrs. Smith both have many warm
friends in Missouri and Kentucky that

MISS BLOOMFIELD.
Miss Fannie Bloomfield is star newly
arisen in the musical armament and Mt this
concert made her first appearance before
the st. Louis public. She has great power
and surprising command over technical
difficulties. In estimating the artistic
worth of Miss Bloomfield, il is not neces-
sary to make comparisons, for she has suf
ficient native sorce to enable her, without
feeling anxiety for the result. TO stand
upon her individual merits and to be
judged by them. The young artist was
warmly greeted on her appearance at this
concert, and the complimentary recogni-
ton of her ability accorded must have
been highly grateful to her artistic pride
Miss Bloomfield INDUCES in no by-play of
the stage, but her whole demeanor exhibits
the modest unassuming girl. wholly de-
voted to the art To which she has dedicated
her life. Her physical appearance would
scarcely indicate that great muscular
power combined with extraordinary SUD
pleness resides in her wrists and hands
but in the execution of this difficult con
certo the latent force sprung into full
activity and forced the instrument to give
out the most impressive and sonorous ef-
fects. She does not, like a blacksmith
play from the shoulder, consequently there

THE TALLEST IN THE WORLD.

Fifty car loads of hard lumber goes into
the ground beneath the foundation of the
Dold packing buildings. Today the forces
are to be materially increased and weather
permitting work will be rushed from this
on. The EAGLE said that one of the main
buildings was to be nine stories high
Yesterday we We're shown the plans of all
the buildings and we found our nine story
building to be nine stories up to the
square with another over portion of the
building still added. So, make it ten
stories From the cornice of this building
to the ground is just one hundred feet
Mr. Thomas, the architect, said the EAGLE
was not only right when it said the main
building west of Chicago, but that it
would be the talest butcher shop in the
world. The main stack or chimney will
stand one hundred and forty feet above
the ground.

Up FROM THE TERRITORY.

NJ. King, Deputy United States Marshal,
and T. w. White of the Sac and Fox po-
lice. came up from the Indian territory
yesterday morning with four prisoners in
custody, who had been arrested for horse
and cattle stealing. The names of the
prisoners are Wady, Sampson, Lata Hogo,
and Geo. Simmon. They were captured
at the Seminole agency. All were MEN,
bers OF that tribe except Simmon, who is a
mixture of Greek and Cherokee.
Messrs. King and White say that the
whole territory is overrun with bad char
acters from Kansas, Arkansas and Texas
who go there to escape the penalty of
crimes committed in these states. The
United States government cannot afford to
protect the people of the territory against
these refugees just now, as its forces are
kept busy prosecuting for the graver crime
of attempting to build houses in the unoc-
cupied lands.

FROM THE TERRITORY.

Micheal King, captain of the Indian po-
lice, and Tom White, deputy U. S. mar
shall, arrived in the city yesterday, having
in charge four Seminole horse thieves, Geo.
Simmer, Samoa, Lotto Hogo and Watley
Littlewood. They were placed in the
county Jail to await a trial at the next
term Of the .. S. court. The four men are
desperate characters, and, it is said, that
their offenses were not few. White .and
King got upon the track of the two men
after they had committed some of their
thefts, and after long and tiresome chase
succeeded in capturing them. Two in the
Seminole country, two in Pottowatomie
county. They were given preliminary
hearing in the nation, and being unable to
give the required bond were sent here for
confinement until their trial
