REMARKABLE MATRIMONT.
Rev. B. Wheat and Wife Enjoy Sixty Years
of Connubial bliss

The issue of the Leroy, Kansas.
Reporter contains the following account
Of very notable event in that county,
on the 1ith inst, it being the celcbra-
tion of the sixteth anniversary Of the
marriage Of Rev. Benoni Wheat and
wife. Mr.. Wheat, who is an uncle Of
Mr.. George X. Wheat, Of this city. was
born in Alexandria. Va, and came to this
city in 1885. About thrty-SiX years
ago he left for his present home, where
he and his venerable and excellent wife
still reside, Mr.. Wheat being eighty
years of age While in this city Mr..
Wheat taught school for time:
"At Union hall, October Il, at $50
p. m. Rev. B. Wheat and wife Rachel
united for the third time in the holy
bonds Of matrimony. AT o'clock the
hall, in charge of the Cleaners, was
decorated and arranged for the reception
of the aged couple. A long table,
groaning under the weight of its tempt
ing eatablcS, was stationed on the north
side. reaching almost the entire length
of the hall. At about four o'clock Mr.
Hosick'S carriage in charge OF Mr..
Crowl, drove up to their residence and
proposed to take the couple ont riding.
After n short drive they repaired to the
hall, where. to their aStonlShment,
large crowd had cOngregated to witness
what is rarely seen in life. Bro. Wealth
erby. after few Introductory remarks,
performed the ceremony, the
groom sealing the bond with a
kiss - the bluShing bride wearing
the customary embarrassment express
ed on such occasions. -Four aged,
white-haired pioneers with their wifes
performed the interesting duty Of
groomsmen and lady'S maids. lmme-
diately afterward Farmer Wheat ad-
dressed the audience, giving them
sketches Of his life in Kan
saS. Next in order was a solo by Miss
Amanda Schmitt, rendered in operate
style, showing much cultured study.
Then followed an original poem from
Mrs. Weatherby: arranged for the occa-
sion. A quartette then sang the beau
tiful old ballad, We Wandered to-day
to the hills, Rachael The table was
then rapidly filled, seating forty
people. the bridal party occupying the
seats OF honor. Three other tables
followed in rapid succession, after which
the reception closed. Many good wishes
followed this aged and worthy couple.
They have seen and felt the frosts Of a
good many winters. and their family
history in detail would make an inter
esting volume. They have spent the
greater part of their lives in the narrow
walks of life, in beautiful and holy imi-
tation of their Savior while here on
earth. We hope many more such ami
vcrsarieS may be allotted to them. But
still, in the order of things, it will not
be many years till they are called to re-
turn to Him who gave, where they will
begin the seat Of honor prepSed for all
who lead such GOd-like lives.

The Worlds Fair Expenses.

Chicago, October 21.-An afternoon
paper publishes an abstract Of a letter
received from Secretary Window in re-
gard to the expenses Of the Worlds
Fair CommisSon.
The Secretary first states that Of
the sl,50O,OOO appropriated, 500,
900 must be used in the
construction of Il government
building. For the fiscal year ending
June 30, there is appropriated jointly
5000, 900 for the expenses Of the commits
sion and the uses of the government
Board of Control. The government
board has estimated that it will need
Sj0,0O0 leaving Sl5O,OOo for the use Of
the commission. The Secretary then
shows that in salaries for
officers and other expenses the
commission has disposed of 100000 of
this S15O,O0O, and that the expenses OF
the Executive Committee now in session
and OF the meeting of the commission
to be held on Nouember Is will bring
the total up to $4,000, leaving only
$40, 900 To run the commission on from
that date till June 80 1891.
The Secretary then makes an ex-
haustivc review of the money matters,
and closes with reluctant approval Of
articles 10 and II, and suggests that
great care be exercised in authorizing
further expenses, so the Commission
will not create deficiency for the en-
suing year.
Five standing committees had asked
the Executive Committee to meet, but
no meeting will be authorized by the
President

places his liabilities in the neighbOr-
