ILL-FOUNDED ASSERTIONS.
The Parents in This city OF Mrs. Re
Her Marriage with Francis Muir

The Parents In This city of Mrs. Re-
becca Finh-r Are Not Opposed to
Her Marriage with Francis Muir.
phy.
The Chicago Herald of Sunday last
contained dispatch from Council Bluffs
to the effect that obstacles were to be
thrown in the way of the marriage of
Mrs. Rebecoa Fisher, daughter OF Mr.. and
Mrs. j. r, Johnston, OF this city, to the
famous temperance advocate, Francis
Murphy, and that in addition too, an effort
was to be m ade by the divorced husband,
Fisher, to recover a part of the property
decreed by the court that she should have
at the time of the divorce, Feb. IL. 1889;
that the parents of the bride to be, in this
city. were very strongly opposed to the
marriage with Murphy; that the marriage
was to have taken place at the home of
MIR. Johnston in Rock Island. but that
the parents would not agree to it, etc.
Mr.. John ton, in conversing on the.
Herald article this morning, said: cit is
not only full of exsggerstions and imper-
fections. bur is largely an absolute fab
rication. The assertion that we have
raised any objections to our daughters
marriage with Mr.. Murphy is not only
false. but is without the least foundation
whatever We are not only perfectly
agreed to the union as far as thst is cons
ccrned. but we hope and expect that the
wedding will take place at our home in
this city.
1.-THE wedding, however, has been post
poned from the day originally contem.
plated, but it is not due TO any objections
interposed by us. but has been occssioned
ty annoyance which Fisher is giving my
daughter in attempting to recover certain
portions of the property given her by the
court. Fisher, believe, is attempting to
raise the point that he was insane at the
| time of the divorce, but it is my opinion
that his object is simply to attempt to
embarrsss and trouble my daughter at
| this particular time"

Amount 20 Much.
The delegates, or proxies rather. who
returned from yesterdays republican con-

not wear a self-satisfied expression of
countenance of having accomplished very
much after all. Gest had been renomi-
mated, and that was about all there was
to it. The delegates might just as well
have remained at home and agreed to that
by mutual consent, for all their assembling
together amounted to. They were
mere fgureheads only. or the au-
thorized delegates elected by the

some one else do the work that they were
assigned to do. so they quietly stayed at

that was expected of them.
