A Brilliant Evening Wedding at the
Church of the Messiah.

II the popularity Of young couple Is to
be measured by the number of people who
assemble together to see them married, IT
is safe to say that no more popular couple
live in this city than Mt. Joseph Nj. Dun
ham and Miss Alice A. Gushing, who were
united in marriage last evening at the
Church of the Messiah. The hour set for
the wedding was 80 p. M. but as early as
$50 some of the general public who were
not invited, but who hoped to have the
run Of the church after the invited guests
were seated, gathered about the church
door. From that hour until the ceremony
was performed the crowd grew steadily in
mum Ders until when the bridal party ar
riy ed the ushers had hard fight to get
them into the building at all. 1t Is esti-
mated that fully 1000 people were present
The floral decorations of the church were
simple, being a row of potted chrysanthe-
NUNS along the front of the platform. and
evergreen arches over the two middle
aisles, through which the bridal party was
to move. The beauty Of the scene was
made by the elegant gowns of the ladies,
many of whom were in full dress, and who
wore corsage bouquets of magni6c Mt
roses and showy chrysanthemnms.
The body of the church was filed with
the invited guests, friends of the bride and
groom, and the side aisles and galleries
were occupied by the interested public.
The orgaDist of the church, Mr.. John w
Woodbury., played soft strains of music
while the guests were being seated. When
the bridal party made their appearance al
| the doors he struck up the bridal marct
from Lohengrin. The bridegroom. attend

and wife by the simple and beautiful Uni

rhE saiLE TRACK.
MIR. J. r, Barrett Warns Portland
ers That other Towns
Are After 1t.

There seems to be some danger that the
kite-shaped mile track may not De Dniit
near Portland unless Portland people keep
awake in the matter. As has already been
stated, Mr. John F. Haines Is an ardent
partisan of Old Orchard as the location.
and he has considerable backing. This
manifested itself at the Preble House
meeting. Mr.. J. F. Barrett also intimates
that other towns may be competitors for
the track. This possibility has prompted
Mr. Barrett to Issue the following address:
PORTLAND. Me-, December /. 1891.

desirable that the subscriptions snoulo De naoe
promptly, SO that the directors may KNOW Wnat

There Is need of haste 10 this matter, be-
cause 1t Is the determination OF Inc promoters
OF this enterprise to locate their track as soon
as possible, in order that 1t may be nnished Tor
next years races. and therefore it is earnestly
requested that all Interested IN having tne

The promoters Of the enterprise have de-
cided to call for a popular subscription,
conditioned upon the location Of the track
ON the Cape Elizabeth site; and have pre-
pared the following form:

from other places is not unfounded i:
