CHINA WEDDING. The wedding day
with its love and faith, its hopes which
exclude the thought of disappointment
aud It's ambitions which are blind to
possibe defeat in The years to follow,
j one of the few golden days in the
lives of most people. But after twenty
wears of love and faith, of hope and
appointment, of achievement and
defeat, the retrospect should bring add
ed luStre and real worth to the ami
yersary. So it was in the tasteful, hos
pitabIe and happy home on Payne
street of Mr.. aud Mrs. G.. w. KEYS,
who last night celebrated their mar
rage of twenty years ago. II is to be
Questioned if the youthful bride and
groom of 1878 appeared to better adj
vantage than the more mature couple
who stood last night in the decorated
parlors receiving the congratulations of
The many friends who kept the house
crowded from Suntil II o'clock. These
Young people OF twenty years ago have
lived in our midst established IA home
and won the confidence and esteem Of
a large circle of friends, who practical
ly attested their regard in the numer-
Gus and beautiful articles Of chinaware
presented. Mr.. and Mrs. Keys added
another proof to their already estab
liShed reputation as entertainers when
the guests were ushered into the din
ling room and enjoyed the dainties
and refreshments their hosts had pre-
pared. No more pleasant occasion has
occurred in this city, and we but ex-
press the wish of all present when We
say, May the future of the bride aud
groom be brighter and happier as the

CURED BY FAiTH-An interesting

meriield, n. c. Mrs. Davis, the
young wife of DR.. w. C. Davis, of that
place, was very i'll with fever, and con-
tinued to grow worse until itseemed, as
both she and the family thought, that
she was near deaths door. Her rea
tives aud friends were gathered around
the bedside, and she had hidden them
good bye. Just as they thought she
was almost gone, she, as if by Il miracle,
arose from the bed and walked TO the
fireplace, saying she was cured-cured
by faith Since that time she has con-
tinued TO regain strength, and is now
almost restored TO her usual good

SENT TO THE CHAIN GANG.-The
twelve white men and one negro, ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Lieut..
Smith and squad of police on the en-
virons of the city, were this morning
sent to the chain gang for thirty days
by Mayor Strauss. Previous to the az
rest negro, answering the description
of the one caught with the white men,
entered the yard of Mr.. Elisha Buffers
residence and picked up Il rooster.
When tho police invaded the camp
of the tramps the rooster had cen d.
vested of its feathers and visccral ap
para;us and was undergoing a boiling
Much annoyance is occasioned on the
suburbs of the city by the increased
number of tramps who invade this
section of the country, and heretofore
when arrested they have been merely
ordered out of the city. This order
they obey according to the letter, but
hang around the outskirts, sleeping in
ears and barns and pillaging for an eX-
istence. The negro in this gang re-
marked when arrested that should this
corporation refuse to take care Of him
ne would compel some other TO do so.
The Mayor told the array they should
remain in their native homes aud make
their own cities take care of them, il
they can find no employment. In few
weeks the work of opening south Pitt
street will be commenced, and all itin-
Grants caught hereabouts will be util-
ized. This morning the police pick, d

could give no satisfactory account OF
themselves.

Seattle and Everett Evidence an
Intention to z anticipate in
the Fig Parade.
Towns on the Great Northern Line
Are ALI Aroused-Local
Work Well Up.

Not to st. Paul alone and her public
spirited men will be due the success of
the Hill demonstration. The great en-
terprise has been planned and carried
out here. and upon local committees
has fallen almost all the preparatory
work, but without the assistance which
the outside towns are so freely giving
the promises Of success would not have
been as bright as they are now.
The work is being taken up all along
the line from st. Paul to Seattle and
Everett, and everywhere the celebra-
ton is arousing great enthusiasm. Many
of these Western towns have already
responded to the general invitation sent
out from st. Paul to participate in the
demonstration. They have sent on
plans and designs for floats as artistic
and beautiful as those designed by local
artists. Secretary Beck. of the cham
Der of commerce, received letter yes
terday from Thomas Dwyer, mayor of
Everett. announcing that the common
council had instructed him to accept
the invitation to participate III the st.
Paul demonstration. Her citizens have
taken hold of the matter with Will.
and promise to send several floats en-
blematlc of the new town of Everett,
and representative Of her leading in
dustries. A large delegation Of citizens
will also be present.
Seattle has sent on a representative
to look after her interests in st. Paul,
and to make all the necessary arrange
ments Tor participating i'll the parade.
The Seattle people are wlde-awake, and
are determined not 10 be outdOne by
any other city outside of st. Paul. MI.
O'Brien, who represents Seattle, has al
ready secured a twenty-horse team to
haul the Seattle exhibit. He went to
Chicago Thursday night. but will re-
turn shortly to look after other arrange
mentS.
The Northern Pacific people an
nounced yesterday that their agrlcul-
tural arch will be erected in front OF
their local ticket Office on Third
street, opposite the Merchants hotel.
This will make Third street one OF the
best decorated streets in the city. A
framework will first be erected, and this
Will be decorated in grains and grasses
and the products of the states through
which the Northern Pacific passes. A
great sum OF money will be expended
on this arch. aud it will unQuestionably
be one of the most attractive i'll the
city.
The contractors building the first
three arches have found it necessary to
import number of skilled WOrkmen
from the worlds fair grounds to do the
fancy moulding for the arches. Nine
teen of them arrived yesterday. The
contractors are pushing the work with
all speed.

ton are on sale at 147 East Third street.

Policeman Dennis Sullivan Re-
signs Under Pressure.
Patrolman Dennis Sullivan. of the Mar
garet street station, resigned from the
force yesterday. Sullivan has been a
member of the department for five years,
and the cause for his resignation being
demanded was the fact that he was
found asleep while on duty Wednesday
night. When called before the mayor
yesterday. Sullivan admitted the charge,
and asked that be be fined and given an
other chance. This the mayor would not
listen to, and plainly told the officer if
his resignation was not handed in he
would be discharged. Under this ruling
Sullivan resigned.
In connection with Sullivan's resigna-
tion the case of Patrolman Feeley. from
the same station, is recalled. Feeley,
who was appointed by the pull his re-
form friend had with the mayor several
months ago, was found asleep on his
beat one night about three weeks ago.
The sergeant who found Feeley asleep
took his star and left him to have his
sleep out. An hour later the officer was
still snoring soundly. Strange to relate
Feeley was not even fined for this dere-
LECTION OF duty, but as one OF Sullivan's
friends remarked yesterday, Feeley was
a refOrmer and Sullivan wasn't.
