When Mamie married-Charley Brown |
Joy took possession Of the town:
The young folks swarmed In happy
throngs-
They rang the bells, they caroled songe,
They carpeted the stops that led
Into the church where they were wed
And up and down the altar stair
They scattered foses every where
When. In her orange blossom crown,
Queen Mamie married Charley Brown,
So beautiful she was, 1t seemed
MEN. looking on her, dreamed they
dreamed;
And he. the holy man who took
Her hand In his. SO thrilled and shook
The gargoytes round the ceilings rim
Looked down and grinned and leered and
Rrinned at him
Until he haif forgot his part
or sanctity and felt his heart
Seat worldward through his sacred gown
When Maimie married Charley Brown.
The bridesmaids kissed her LETT and right,
Eond mothers hugged her with delight
Young men OF twenty-seven were seen
10 blush like lads of seventeen
Tho while they held her hand TO quota
such sentiments as poets wrote.
Yea, all the heads that homage bends
We're bowed to her--but Oh my friends.
My hopes went up-my heart went down
When Mamie ma:ried Charley Brown,

on Congress street.
The wounded are: p. G. McGloin,

abdomen, will probably die; Samuel
Stone, shot In the right leg, will recover.
McGloin was alone in his saloon when
Cole entered and ordered glass Of beer.
He then asked the saloon keeper to get
him some meat that he claimed to have
left in the ice box of the saloon. McGloin
walked to the entrance of the ice box, and
Cole, drawing revolver, ordered him to
go inside and stay there. McGloin turned
and struck tho robber In the face, nearly
Knocking him down.
The two men then clinched and fought
desperately. Cole managed to get one
| arm free and with his revolver he pounded
the saloon keeper vioiously. infilcting
| three severe wounds on the head. The
robber then broke loose and rushed to the
street, followed by the bleeding saloon
keeper and an excited crowd. Officers
! Rosenthal and DAILY joined in the chase,
and Cole fred several shots into the
crowd Then Rosenthal, after ordering
the fugitive to surrender and receiving a
shot In return, fired with fatal effect.
