BEERS -REDD.-In Baltimore, on oeto-
Der 4, 1892. by the Rev. Peregrine Wroth.
rector Of the Church of the Messiah. Albert
G. Beers and Addie N. Redd-"
The above Eotice, published in an after
noon paper yesterday, tells the latest
bit OF gossip in the lively little suburb of
Anacostia. 1t was the first iItimation that
Mr. Beers and Miss Redd were married
and astonished their host OF friends. but
when it was seen that for over two years
the couple had been husband ami wife. and
yet lived apart during that time, the as
tonishment was simply intense.
Mr.. Beers is a well known builder and
contractor, and for many months has been
living in a pretty and nicely furnished
house on Monroe street Up to two days
ago he was keeping bachelors hall, while
his wife, known as Mss Redd. lived at the
home OF her brother, Mr.. j. B. Redd. on
Jackson street.
During all this time Mr.. Beers was q
very persistent caller. and as far as
the public knew, was srdeHtIy pursuing
his courtship. 1t was a case OF husband
courting his own wife, and the reason OF
such action is what is Fuzzlirg rot only
friends of the parties, hut also their rel
ativeS.
Mr. j. B. Eedd prominent AnecOstia
merchant and brother of the young lady,
stated to The Times representative that
the news OF bis sisters marriage was very
unexpected indeed ard he could give 20
reason whatever for their keeping it
secret so long.
It was only when she left her brothers
home, Thursday morning, and moved to
her husbands home on Monroe street, that
the marriage became known to him-
Mir Beers greeted the reporter sniiinSiy
and referred him to the above mentioned
marriage notice as the Only Information
he could give. He declined 10 state
MS reason for keeping the marriage 4
secret and sad. with a laugh:
IF il had been in washington it would
never have been kept secret so long. ="

age OF the Church OF the Messiah in Bsiti-

A WORD FOR ARISTOCRATS.

There was never a time since the War OF
independence when there was as many for
eign noblemen in America as at present, and
while il is the custom to deride these aristo-
Gratis for the ains which they assume. there
are many OF them who deserve word of
commendation for the unassuming mode
which characterizes their behavior under
the most embarrassing circumstances.
In England due credit is given to swells
who have the egoodnessto todeneanthemselyes
like ordinary human beings. and why should
not we also accord to them the same praise
whenever they deserve it?
This is the sort OF paragraph that goes
the rounds of the English papers without
bringinga smneto any face and isthentrans-
planted to America, where it is treated with
very much the same respect and deferencetO
which il ha sheen accustomed in the mother
country.
''The following story, which is vouched
for by gentleman who was present at the
time, is intereting, inassmuc has ii shows the
charming condescension and affability of
those who are truly great.
A lady, simpl yatireG in black, entered
a grocer's store in Londo nrecently, and in
a
dozen herrings, four cans of tomatoes and
box OF starch. Then after having knocked
q few half-pence off the price and tasted
some of the last consignment of butter,
she smiled sweetly upon the tradesman and
turned 60 leave.
But. madam exclaimed that worthy,
swhere do you wish the goods sent:'
The lady raised her eyebrows slightly,
with lock of weil-bred surprise, and re-
gponded with perfect sanfroid:
You may send them TO the Duchess OF
Peck, Buckingham House
Then she stepped lightly into her carriage,
leaving the shopkeeper spellbound with hor-
TOR TO think that he had presumed 10 ask the
name and address of his iluStrious customer.
But fer genuine democracy and ''unas-
Rumingness" commend us to those noblemen
who have settled in this country. This is
about the way they behave, and they don't
get much credit for it, either.
