Tn. Howard Darby Wedding.

Ii IS not every day, every month, or even every year, that Prescott can ;witness the marriage of its mayor. When such an event does occur, as it did yesterday, however this community demonstrated that it can celebrate the event Tn prop CT form.
 Judge John Howard. one of the earliest of the early pioneers of this section, and who has held the office of mayor now for three or four years. was united in marriage last evening, in the parlors of Hotel Burke. to Miss Flora Darby, the ceremony being performed by Judge H. W. Fleury, at $ o'clock.
 According to previous arrange ment, by Geo. Scheurman, chief of " the fire department, an alarm was rung on the fire bell little after seven o'clock, which was the signal for the assembling of the depart ment at Toughs' headquarters. They proceeded in a body and at taching ropes to barouche, drew the mayor and his prospective bride around the plaza to Hotel Burke, where the ceremony was performed, the procession being preceded by the Toughs hose company with their cart illuminated with torches. An immense bonfire was built on the street in front of the hotel, and a large crowd had assembled both inside of the hotel and on the street, and the appearance of the Mayor and the lady who was soon to be- come his wife, was the signal for loud and prolonged cheering. During the procession around the plaza the bell was also rung, and the occasion in every respect was one of the greatest demonstration. Wm. Dulin had engaged the ser /. vices of the string band of Prescott, and after the ceremony and con- gratulations were over at the hotel, and the bride and groom had repaired to their residence on upper Montezuma street, Mir. Dulin accom- panied by the musicians, proceeded to their residence and gave the couple a serenade. They were joined few minutes later by mem bers Of tue fire department, and vo cal and instrumental music Wa rendered until the bride and groom appeared. and the latter favored them with a speech.
