ana Miss Kaude Qushmau.

From the South Bend, Ind, Weekly Tribune
The society event of the summer in this
city was the marriage Tuesday afternoon OF
Rev. Geo. Il. Thompson and Miss Maude
w. Cushman. The ceremony was per-
formed at $50 o'clock by Rev. Henry John
son, ID. d., pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, at the home of the brides parents,
1886 North Michigan street, and.was strictly
private only relatives being present. The
rooms were darkened and beautifully deco
rated with flowers and trailing vines pre-
senting charming appearance. At three
o'clock the doors were thrown open and a
throng of invited guests passed through
from that hour until five o'clock to pay
their respects to Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson
and extend congratulations. About 400 In
vitations were issued to the reception. The
guests were met by Mrs. Cushman and
daughter, Mrs. Willis G. Murray, and pre-
scented to the bride and groom who stood
beneath canopy of vines and natural
flowers i'm the bay window OF the south
parlor. The bride was richly attired in a
dress of cream color brocaded silk and the
groom in plain black. After extending con-
CALCULATIONS the guests were escorted to the
spacious lawns OH the river terrace in the
rear of the residence and that of Mr.. Joseph
Warden, adjoining, where choice refresh
ments were served at tables beneath large
canvass stretched over the green sward. The
weather was delightful and the scene from
the lawn lovely and inspiring one, adding
that brought so many people together. A
score or more of young ladies, members Of
First Presbyterian church young peoples
society, Officiated at the tables and served
the large company gracefully and well.
After refreshments the guests returned to
the house and took leave of the bridal party.
Mr.. Thompson is talented young man
who grew up in the city, and one of the
three of the First Presbyterian church Sun
day school scholars to enter the ministry.
He graduated from Princeton theological
seminary last spring, and shortly there
after received and accepted call to the
pastorate of the Olivet Presbyterian church,
Wilmington and entered at once upon his
ministerial work. He is fine speaker and
gives promise of becoming prominent as a
pulpit orator and successful pastor. The
bride is highly accomplished young lady,
who during her few years residence in
South Bend has made hosts of friends and
has been prominent in musical and church
circles. She is admirably qualified by ma
lures gifts and education for the position of
life helpmeet to minister of the gospel.
The Tribune extends its congratulations
and best wishes to Rev. Mr.. Thompson and
his fair bride.

A Marrow Escape.

j. l.. Jencks, a farmer and stock raiser,
living about eight miles north of Ovid, in
forms us of the narrow escape his wifes
uncle, Mr.. w. II. Durham had ON Thurs
day last, of being ''taken in" by some con-
fidence men and being fleeced of large
sum of money. Mr.. Durham is an old and
highly respected farmer in that neighbor-
hood, and being DESTROYS of selling his farm
the sharpers took advantage of it and first
appeared there on Wednesday, July oath.
One man represented that he was large
grocer in Saginaw and mentioned among
others who traded with him, the name of
Mr.. Geo. Hoisington, which tended to
strengthen the confidence of Mr.. Durham
in him. The other man said he was the
administrator of an estate in Saginaw and
was instructed to purchase a farm. They
left soon after and the next day, Thursday,
they returned again with third party and
leaving him at school house on corner of
the farm, went to Mr.. Dunham's house and
had him accompany them to the school
house to arrange the details of the sale.
Here, by means Of drugged liquor, they
evidently intended to try and interest the
old gentleman i'm their three card monte
game but at this time, Mr.. Jencks who is a
constable and has had some experience
i'm police matters in Detroit, arrived upon
the scene and recognized at once two of the
men to be crooks from Detroit. One of
them was familiarly known as "big-foot
Charlie" and the other Mcclure. Jencks
informs us that he pronounced them at
once swindlers and asked his uncle If he
still possessed his pocket book The men
finding that their game was foiled, con-
cluded to go and wanted Durham to get
into the buggy with them and they would
take him home. Jencks demured and
again called them thieves when one of the
men made move as If to draw revolver,
but as he was matched by one in the hands
of Jencks, this did not work and the men
were allowed to depart in peace.-Ovid

Bliss on Trusts.

In recent interview, which we publish
to-day, Col. A. T. Bliss voices his sentiments
on the attempt to form great salt trust.
To this interview we call every thinking
mans attention, because it points out the
immense danger to our Republican institu-
tions, and especially because it was spoken
at time when the prospects of the trust
were almost dazzling. AS is well known to
residents of the great Saginaw Valley, the
big lumber manufacturers are also large
producers of salt, and the Colonel was di-
rectly interested in any scheme that would
raise the price of salt. Especially would
we have our readers note the contrast be-
tween the position of the Congressman and
the late Democratic candidate for Governor
Further comment is unnecessary, other than
a renewal of our advice to read the article
carefully.
