Bride Went Down a Ladder

An Ansonia, Conn, dispatch in the New
York Sun says: Frank j. Baldwin and Miss
Ella Mahan, who were married here last
night, decided to cheat the guests of the
fun of throwing rice and old shoes at them.
After the wedding supper the young couple
retired to prepare for their journey. The
guests stood at the front of the house
with handfuls of rice and numerous as
soFtment of shoes and We're surprised soon
to see the carriage driving out Of the yard
with the young couple in il, and too far
away to be reached by the b0mha rdment.
After donning her travelling costume the
bride went to her bedroom window at the
rear of the house and gave a signal.
Slowly a long ladder vas raised. and the
brdegroom's head appeared. He took
her handbag and dropped it into the hands
of the coachman. Then the bride squeezed
herself through the window, and, steadied
by her husband, descended safely. They
got in carriage and drove out by a side
entrance to the grounds.
