however, immensely relieved when the

the clergy were dismayed, and wills

A Democratic Campaign Fund In

Chicago, Dec. 5.--Three quarters Of
q million dollars has been stolen from
the campaign fund of the Democratic
party, raised for the years 1893, 1894,
and the spring Of 1895. This charge
is made by NJ. G. Mcdonald and Aid.
John Powers. 1t is sustained by the
newly elected chairman Of the county
central committee, Thomas Gahan, in
the statement that the funds of the
past two years have not been account
ed for. The money was raised for the
campaign which resulted in the cleo
tion of John P. Hopkins and Swift for
mayor, the county commissioners
campaign following, for the alderman
ic campaign. for the Winter contest
and for the drainage compaign, recent
ly closed. The Democratic admins
tration of the central committee born
out Of the assassination of Carter Har-
rison, Is charged with the misuse of
this money. And for this misuse no
explanation is at present forthcoming
from the Democratic citizens who
stand under the charge of having tax

benefit, involving in it's expenditure
trips to Europe, to West Baden and
to Hot Springs, and the building of
various expensive residences in yari-

JOHN GooDNow WEEDS.

The Marriage on July Q, 1893, Just
Announced.
Minneapolis, Dec. 4.-The many ac-
quaintances Of John Goodnow were
electrified this morning by the an
nouncement that he had been married
to Mrs. Flora E. Powers, sten0grapher
In the office of the attorney general
during the administration Of Gen. M.
r. Clapp. The news was abroad early
this morning and was not long in
reaching the capitol, where the greater
surprise was manifested. Both par
ties are, Of course, very well known
to the state officials and employees, and
the wonder is that this pleasant event
could have been kept secret 80 long.
Mrs. Powers was employed at the
capitol for number of years, first in
the Office of the governor, and later In
the office of the attorney general. She
was bright and attractive and withal
80 ambitious to succeed that she took
a course at the evening law school Of
the state university. While Mrs. Pow
ers was employed at the capitol shs
and Mr.. Goodnow became acquainted
and formed a mutual attachment,
which resulted in courtship and q
rather romantic marriage. The we'd
ding occurred in Chicago in 1893.
