ROMANCE IN HIGH LIFE.
Chief Justice Fuller'5 Daughter Maries
Her Choice IN Spite Of Protests.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, March 20.-Miss
Pauline Fuller, the fifth daughter Of Chief
Justice Fuller, was married here last
night ut the Kirby house by a justice of
the peace. The groom was j. N, Aubrey
of Chicago, and it was a runaway match.
When the train arrived last night, petite
woman was helped off the steps of parlor
car by well knit young man with a
smooth face. The lady was closely yelled
and was escorted to a carriage by her COM
panion. They were driven at once to the
Kerby house where they registered No
room was assigned to them and the lady
and her company spent the early evening
in the hotel parlors. About 8 o'clock the
young man came down stairs and informed
the clerk that he wanted a justice of the
peace Inside of fifteen minutes Justice
Gregory arrived. There was a hurried
consultation and then the young man
brought the blushing young lady forward.
The ceremony was brief one,
and the justice, who is a very
prG---S old gentleman, put on no
extra frills He did not know that the
bride was the daughter of the chief justice
of the United States and neither any of
those who were present outside of the con-
tracing parties. When the ceremony was
concluded the old justice called for wit
nesses and two young men were captured
in the billiard room and ran TO affiX their
signatures to the necessary document.
The knot was firmly tied. Mrs. Aubrey,
nee Pauline Fuller, is 10 years of age,
highly educated, and remarkably hand
some woman. J. NJ. Aubrey, .Jr. is %
years of age. He is the son of the general
western agent of the Merchants Despatch
fast freight line, j. NJ. Aubrey, ST., who
has been resident of Chicago since 1876,
when he left Milwaukee. He is well
known here and Congressman Isaac Van
Shlack is one of his most intimate friends.
fathers Office in Chicago. He is
a handsome young fellow. The
acquaintance began about three year ago.
Justice Fuller, who was then plain Law
yer Fuller, lived with his eight daughters
on Lake avenue, only a short distance
from the home of young Aubrey. The
young people first met at q party given Oh
Lake avenue only a short distance from
the home of Aubrey. There soon sprang
up an attachment which was opposed by
the Fuller family; Miss Pauline declared
she would marry who she pleased. Her
father recognized her right to do so, but
her mother still opposed. AT this time the
lawyer was named for chief Justice. Mrs
Fuller packed up and carried Miss Pauline
away to Washington with the other
Misses Fuller About the 1st of last
January Miss Pauline came to Chicago
and has since remained in that city visit
ing friends of the family. The story of the
elopement of the pair is an interesting
one and demonstrates that young Aubrey
has cut his eye teeth. To begin with he
hired two detectives to shadow him and
his afiianced until they left Chicago. His
object was to learn if any one was follow
ing them, and to prevent the young lady
from being rescued. 1t was early in the
afternoon when he met Miss Fuller and
Chicago candy store was the trySting
place. They boarded Milwaukee & st.
Paul train at the union depot at $50 D. ~
and came direct to this city.
The correspondent called on Justice
Gregory early this morning and greatly
astonished that gentleman by informing
him that he had married a daughter OF the
chief Justice of the United States. On
looking at the marriage certificate he was
more surprised that the fact had not
struck him before, for there before his
eyes were the names of the chief justice
and his wife as well as the grooms father
and mother. Young Mr.. Aubrey proposes
TO remain in Milwaukee a few days.

house for his bride in Chicago, where he
has position in the Office Of his father. a

Will be settled all right, for | think my
wife's father will look at it in a sensible
way. He Is very sensible man"
Mrs. Aubrey refused TO be interviewed
but glimpse was caught OF her as she
passed along the corridor to her room. She
Is precisely five feet five inches in height
and has a great abundance OF chestnut
brown hair which, curling around her face
and neck. makes very pretty frame for a
very pretty face. Her eyes, are gray and
thoUghtful and her nose decidedly aqui-

the general character expressed,by her face

which she had made up her mind to- Her
figure is excellent. her hands and feet
albeit she Is from Chicago-are small and
her tailor made travelling suit unexcep-

feature of the interview was the fact
