it is reported that several days will elapse

A very pretty home wedding took place on
Saturday at 10 a. M, at the residence of Mr..
and Mrs. A. c. Ebbesen, when Mr.. Fred E.

united in marriage by Rev. j. NJ. Lowden.
The bride was very prettily arrayed in a
cream corded silk. The wedding was attand-
ed only by the immediate relatives of the
bride and groom. A singular coincidence of
the wedding was the fact that E. M. Ebbesen,
the father of the bride, was % years older
than the groom, Mrs. Ebbesen was 20 years
older than the bride, and it was the 23d ami
versary of the brides parents wedding.
After wedding breakfast the happy couple
left on short wedding tour. The presents
were both numerous and costly.

Officers.

City Building, yesterday afternoon. These
reports were read and accepted:
MANAGERS REPORT.
Ladies-We can bring to you at this time
nothing new of special interest. Our work
one year as in any other; not much to
arouse or excite any great amount of zeal or
enthusiasm save that which comes from the
satisfaction of knowing that we are lending
our grateful thoughts to those who among
the many calls made upon them, by the va
ried charities OF our city, have still remem-
bered us and our work.
We are pleased to be able to show by our
treasurer's and depositary's report that our
work has not been hindered but has held its
own with that of former years.
Inc business meetings have been held
from month to month with but one excep-
ton through the season with good attend
ance; the visiting and collecting in most of
the districts has been most faithfully done
by those who have had it in charge. One
large district, that comprising most of Mum
Joy Hill (which for several years was left al
most wholly without a collector for the rea-
willing to take it, has, through the energy
and perseverance:of one or two of our ladies',
been well canvassed and they have found a
liberal response to their appeals.
Through the enforced absence from the
city of one who is most thoroughly interest
ed and an untiring worker in all benevolent
work and who has served for many
years. as. an indefatigable collector
Tor this society, we have been deprived of
what we have been won't to count upon as
one OF our largest resources. We trust that
those who have been accustomed to look for
her annual call will remember her and us in
the year now opening before us.

what has been done the past year.
