Johnson-WhippIe.

At s o'clock yesterday morning the
residence of Mr.. L. G. Whipple. corner
of Seventeenth and House streets, was
the scene of a pleasant gathering to wit
ness the marriage Of Mr.. Geo. W. john
son and Miss Mary Lillian Whipple.
Shortly after 8 O'Clock the bride and
groom appeared in the front parlor; the
bride was very daintily attired in a charm
ing travelling dress of light ladies' cloth
with PANELS and trimmings of brown
braid, and wearing an exquisit corsage
bouquet of Marechal Neil roses. The
groom was dressed in a black dress suit
and white tie.
Rev. L. ID. Lamkin, of the First Bap-
fist church, oficlated; and captured those
present by the brevitY but completeness
of the cermonY.
After congratulations there immediate
ely followed a sumptous wedding break
fast, consisting of several courses. Covers
were laid for thirty-one the large double
parlors being thrown open to accommodate
them.
AT $50 a. IN, having enjoyed all the
good things of the table, the guests
arose and soon afterwards escorted the
happy couple to the depot where they
departed to spend part of their honey
moon with Mr.. Johnson's parents at
Leavenworth, visiting Denver, Kansas
City and other prominent places en- route.
1t is needless to state that they were
a%bundantly supplied with rice.
The bride is the only daughter of the
esteemed citizen Mr.. l.. @, Whipple. and
is a f~avorite in Cheyenne's best society.
The groom is the well known, efficient
and trusted ~bookkceper with the Arp &
Hammond hardware house.
Mr.. and Mrs. johnson will return in
the course of a month to Cheyenne and
will occupy rooms at Mr.. Whipple's.
These relatives of the contracting par.
ties only were present. and a large number
of beautiful costumes were noticed: Mr..
and Mrs. L. G. Whipple, Mr.. and Mrs.
w. L. Whipple, Mr.. and Mrs. DR.. Hunt,
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Dana. Mr.. and Mrs.
E. p. Whipple and children Cyrus and
BERTHE, Mr.. and Mrs. G. NJ. Chandler,

back his salary. He was moody, dreamy
aud sometimes was extremely r~eticent
for long periods. However he was of re-
firing disposition. Tuxford had family
troubles of which the public shall never
know.
B. r. Goodell OF THE LEADER Office
met the young man walking north on up
per Ferguson street between l and 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon and asked
where he was going. Home" was the
gruf reply. He was more than a block
off his usual route to his boarding house,
and was doubtless then en- route to the
lake.
OF course it is possible that Tuxford,
who was peculiar at times. went out in
the boat for pleasure, and in trying the
sail plan fell overheard. The cry for help
is foundation for this. but it was just as
liable to come from suicide.
The boat was leaky and it may be that
Harry thought it was about to sink and
attempted to swim to the shore. He was
easily excited. Monday Tuxford said he
would sooner be in the grave than endure
another week such as the past had been.
TO DAY.
Coroner Chafin will endeavor to re-
cover the remains to-day. The body is
pretty nearly the center of the lake.
which is about half a mile long and a
quarter of a mile wide.

Mr.. Hunt said there were eleven men in

The disposition of the surplus IN the
United States treasury engages the atten-
ton of u statesmen. but IA more vital
question has our attention, and hat is the
reduction Of the surplus consumptives.
Since the discovery and introduction of
DR.. Kings New Discovery for Consump-

the mortality from this dreaded disease,
and it is possible to still further reduce the
number of consumptives, Howl By
keeping constantly at hand a bottle OF

TO MEET IN NOVEMBER.

General Belief That the President Has
Determined to Call m Extra Session Of
Congress.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16-It is now general
" conceded on all sides that there
will be an extra session OF Congress-
1t is believed that the President has
ut last made up his mind definitely
to call both houses together BY tho
first week In November. Those who pre-
tend to know say that the one thing which
made the President hesitate so long before
coming to determination was the uncor-
tainty which existed as to the position
which might be assumed by some Of lhe
Southern Republicans in the organization
OF the House. There is no longer
any doubt on this score, ii there ever was
any at all Each and every Republican
from the Southern States has been heard
from Every man among them has ex-
pressed his determination to work for tho
caucus nominees
There is hardly any chance that the con-
tested election cases can be settled before
the holiday recess The Democrats have
already announced their determination
to filibuster, and unless there
are radical changes in the rules
Of procedure the filibusters will be
able to prevent final action for many
weeks, and perhaps they may be able to
keep some of the contests on the docket
during the entire session in spite of the
extra days which will be gained by call
for the meeting Of Congress in November.
