Last Wednesday afternoon a wedding
was celebrated at st. Theresa's Church,
Summit, by the Rev. G. A. Vassallo. The
married couple were Katie Masterson, of
Newark, and Owen Duffy, of Summit.
Attached to the marriage there is a little
story rejecting N the coquettish bride.
About six months ago Miss Masterson
was employed by James R. Pitcher, of
Short Hills, as maid. In his employ at
the same time was Frank O'Neile, in the
position of foreman. 1t was not long be-
lore O,Neil became smttten with the
charming maid, who received his atten-
tions and accepted his proposals of mar
Tlage. The day was set as August ! for
the grand finale. In the meantime,
ONeile, seeing a chance to better his con-
dltlon, left the employ of Mr.. Pitcher Inc
went to a new position in Perth Amboy.
Before going he confided to his prospec-
tive bride a large sum of money which he
had saved, telling her to invest in q trous-
seau.
After his departure she, too, left Mr..
Pitcher and found employment III the
family of John B.. Walsh, at Summit.
Here she was introduced to Owen Duffy,
whom she allowed to pay her attentions,
despite her previous engagement.
O'Neil got wind of the affair, and in
haste came to Summit and pleaded hard
to win back Miss Masterson's affections,
but she disowned him and declared in
favor of Duffy. Seeing his plea for love
was Intellectual he entered a plea for the
money he had given her, but this, too,
was refused. Thence he went to Justice
Kelly, exposed his case, and asked for
steps to be taken to regain his money.
The Justice refused to take any action.
In desperation O'Neill went to Father
Vassallo, whom he found unmovable in
his resolution not to interfere.
Nothing could be done in the case, and
O'Neil abandoned it. So the wedding
took place, and Miss Masterson was mar
ried in a beautiful silk dress she had
bought with her abandoned lovers
money.

day. The people began to assemble on
"Wednesday evening when number of
tents were pitched on tho ground. and
on yesterday crowds Of people focksd
in ''fron early morn to dewy eve," all
bent on having . good timo on this, tho
18Th anniversary of American Indc-
pendence. The number present was
variously estimated at from 500 to
! 900, and it is safe to say that no less
than 600 people, gathered together in
tho beautiful grove on the banks of La
NOBLE to enjoy holiday.
A grent deal Of work has been done
in trimming up the trees aud removing
the underbrush in order to make the
place desirable picnic ground, besides
which the finest dancing floor We have
over seen in II grove i'll this country has
been laid of smooth, matched plank,
the floor being large enough to accom- =
nodate about ten sets, over which m
arbor WAS formed to protect the dane
ers from the rays OF the sun during the
day. .........
The people enjoyed themselves in
their own way until noon when lunch
was taken, after which Mrs. Maggie and
her child performed on the elevated

and the race, when it did come off. was

stay to witness them.
After the races the crowd returned to

A LATE ARRIVAL.

Some of the late arrivals could not be snug
gled into committee rooms, but they were not
allowed to escape the strikers" Of high and
low degree who crowded the main corridor I'M
til it was almost impossible At least two or
three attorneys would go with the man who has
a vote right up TO the very portals of the
House and at the average rate of two hundred
and fifty words to the minute endeavor to turn
him from the error of his ways before il was
lrrevocably too late. From these traps the
victims only succeeded in escaping by dumbly
acquiescing in everything their tormentors
said. Then they went inside to be tormented
some more unless they happened to be partic-
nlarly pronounced in favor of certain candi-
dates.
As the hour of noon drew near the crowd on
the republican side increased and especially
dense was it behind the screens and in the
cloak rooms. The candidates and the candi-
dates friends were as busy as bees, but the
hum OF their conversation exceeded the mur-
muir OF many swarms Representatives Belden.
Bayne and Bingham were three of the BIS who
did most of the active work for Reed, although

The most thoroughly pumped members that
ever graced the House of Representatives were
those who ventured outside the hall while the
caucus was in progress. hundred waiting
newspaper men voraciously pounced upon them
and endeavored to find out all they knew, and
when they got that they were not satisfied
Every man was, for the time being an Oliver
Twist and every man cried for more. The cor
respondents and reporters were shut out of
their gallery lest they might overhear some of
the proceedings, and they had to do a good
deal OF hustling not only to get the news but
to write it and get it on the wires. Competi-
tion in this respect was very keen.
THE REED MEN
started into the caucus with the hope of draw
ing the desired votes from some of the other
candidates. One Of the leading Reed men said
to STAR reporter that they could have had
four more votes than enough to elect their can
didate, but that they refused to make the bar
gain that was necessary to accomplish this
They were pledged to the support of Wheat of
Wisconsin for door keeper, and they would not
throw him over for Adams to get the southern
votes, which would have elected him. Conse-
quently, he said Reed would not get more than
i've of the southern votes.
The New York delegation met in the terri
tories committee room just before the caucus
assembled and by unanimous vote ipdorsed
Wheat Of Wisconsin for doorkeeper.
OPENING PROCEEDINGS.
The caucus was called to order few minutes
after noon by Representative McComas of
Maryland, the secretary Of the caucus commit
tee of the last House.
Gen. Henderson Of Illinois having been
chosen chairman call Of the roll was begun
TO determine how many were present
The call Of the roll showed that one hundred
and sixty-fve Of the one hundred and sixty-
nine republican representatives were present
Vi the aosentees IL was understood three are
pieoged TO Heed and one to Mckinley.

regarded as one of the foremost members of
his party in the House, and both in committee
and on the floor he has rendered valuable serv-
