A man called DR.. Grittinger was
found yesterday morning in saloon on
First street, in an unconscious condition.

Tribulation's of a Bride.

Every woman who has been bride
will sympathize with the sorrows Of a
young lady who was married in Omaha
q few days ago. She had almost
reached the church wheneit was discov-
cred that she had forgotten her bridal
veil in her nervousness and haste. She
went back after it. On the way to the
church again she sneezed and split her
satin bodice from belt to shoulder.
The carriage stepped at shop, nee die
and thread was procured, and the rent
repaired. As she stepped from the
carriage the lace bottom Of an UNDER
skirt caught and the button at the waist
gave way. In consequence the. skirt
began to slip as she walked up the
church aisle, every eye of course, bent
en- her with a cold critical look. With
her disengaged hand she clutched des-
perately at the slipping garment, man
aging to hold it through the side Of her
dress until the ceremony was over and
she was once more in the carriage.
Her next entirely natural act was to
fling her arms about the panic stricken
groom's neck and gave way to tor
rent Of tears, the reason for which she
did not then impart. philadelphia

IT is very easy, but at the same
time infinitely removed from all
that is Christian, to upbraid the
sinner in place of rebuking the sin.
Whereas the rebuke should never
part from our lips which has not
the double object of leave for the
offender and hatred of the offence.
The brotherly correction, which
alone can be expected to work its
way to the heart, must bear upon
itself the evident marks of having
been dictated by genuine affection.
If reproving do at all degenerate
into reviling, we may look to have
it despised as springing from car
