lotte r. Mann, daughter of Mr.. james
H. Mann, was married to Mr. William S.
Daffin, son of Mr.. p. d. Dafin of Sayan-
nah, Ga. The prominence of the parties
centered great interest in the event, and
the spacious lawns and mansion of the
brides parents were brilliantly illumi-
mated with colored lights and Chinese
lanterns The decorations of the house
and grounds were in great taste, potted
plants and palms giving an oriental tone
to the scenic effect.
Promptly at p. m the bridal party
entered the parlor and the celebrated
orchestra of Stopper 81 FisSe playing
MendClssohn's wedding march, advanced
to a chancel of evergreens, banked on
either side by wall of cut flowers.
There, under a large floral bell, the offici-
ating clergyman, the groom and his best
man met them, and, while the strains of
Lohengrin softly rose and fell, the happy
pair were pronounced man and wife
The bride was given away by her
father She wore white satin en- train,
trimmed with duchess lace. Her
veil was of white tulle, and
she carried bouquet of lilies
of the valley, brides roses and maiden
hair fern Her ornaments were diamonds
and pearls, gifts of the groom. Miss
Genevieve Mann. sister of the bride, was
maid of honor wearing white bengaline
trimmed with old Irish point lace. The
bridesmaids, Miss Dafin of Savannah,
and Miss CulbertsOn OF LewistOwn, wore
pink bengaline, trimmed with point APP
plique and carried bouquets Of Catharine
Mermots and maiden hair felr Miss
Daffin was especially facinating, her cos
tune serving as tasteful setting for her
great natural beauty, and she was the
recipient of great deal of attention
The groom wore the conventional black
and was attended by his best man, Mr.
William Fl. Mann, brother of the bride.
The ushers were Mr.. Walter Mann and
Mr. Howard 0. Lantz
A reception followed the ceremony, and
supper was served. The piazzas were in
closed with vines and flowers and tables
placed where the guests took their re
past with the FLASHING of fountains and
excellent music as condiments for the
delicacies of a famous New York caterer
A striking feature of the supper was the
bridal table, at which sat the families of
the bride and groom and the bridal party.
The decorations of this table We're pink
and light was furnished from splendid
candelabra of rare and beautiful work
manship. The small tables and the bridal
table were decorated with pink roses, and
the mantelpieces in the dining hall were
banked witch pink carnations.
Over 800 guests from all parts of Penn
sylvania, New York, Philadelphia, and
other cities were present. After the re
ception dancing was INDUCED in until the
wee sma' hours. The presents were not
only in great number, but were very
costly, peculiar circumstance being that
all the silverware which the bride re
ceived was solid
The groom, who is very attractive,
manly young man, has many friends here
at the north and is highly esteemed by
all who have made his acquaintance.

New York Recorder.1

Speaking of Reed, there is no other
man in Congress whom it will pay to
watch more closely.
He will have more to say about the
conduct of the honest money campaign
in the House than anybody else, and
he will supply the brains for the Demo-
cratic managers just as he did in the last
Congress, when Charlie Tracey and
Bourke Cochran and the rest used to go
to him hourly for parliamentary points
He will be concealed in the prompter's
box a good part of the time, but he will
be the star performer all the same, and
there will be plenty of opportunities for
him to step out on the Stage and play
the leading role.
The ex-Speaker can be trusted to see
to it that the Republican minority re-
ceives proper credit for the good things
that are done.
There is a good deal of visionary
talk just now about sinking party con
siderations in the face of a common peril
and all that; but Reed believes in his
party as honestly as he believes in his
country, and he thinks that patriotism
and partisanship can move along very
well together.

The Maine NOn-F0rfeiture Law.

There can be no reasonable doubt, but
that one of the chief contributing factors
in the Union Mutual's acquisition of
New Business is the fact that the Bene-
fits of the Maine Non-Forfeiture Law
are daily becoming better understood by
intending insurers-and with this clearer
understanding they naturally secure
Policies containing it's benefits, it being
equally well understood that the Union
Mutual Life Insurance Company, of
Portland, Maine, is the only cOmpa-
my issuing Policies under this law.
During the twenty-six weeks CONSTITUTE
ing the first half of 1898, no fewer than
thirteen notices OF Deaths were re-
ceived in which the respective Policy-hol-
dershad through some cause or causes al
lowed their Policies to lapse, and upon
which, without any action whatever on
their part, their insurance was continued
by the benefcent operation of the Maine
Non Forfeiture Law. These Policies ag
gregated in amount more than $32, 900.
One of these cases will suffice to show
the far-reaching scope and liberal char
acter of this law:

Before going to Washington Congress
man Holman took occasion to inquire
into the views of his constituents re-
garding the repeal of the tax on State
banks, and this is the conclusion he
came to: Repeal the State bank tax
and money will be as plenty as beech
leaves. am uncompromisingly opposed
to the repeal of that law. We are not
ready to return to wildcat money. Lo-
cal currency tends to unsettle trade and
to create incredulity in commercial
centres. I have failed to find one man
in my district who favors the repeal.of
the State bank tax. 1t WILL not be re-
pealed in my opinion. anticipate a
heater fight on this as well as the silver
question, but the .adherents of the State
bank doctrine are few and comparatively
weak" But the national Democratic
platform recommended the repeal of
the tax on State banks without dissent
ing vote. That clause was just as con-
spicuous as the clause about tariff re-
form which Mr.. Cleveland says the peo-
pie endorsed and demanded should be
carried out. If the people demanded
that the latter should be carried out,
why didn't they demand also that the
former should be carried out? If they
voted for tariff smashing, why didn't
they vote for wild cat money?
