shoes, a gray suit, a percondo collar and
yellow necktie. The bride was dressed
in black. Miss Annie Rutter, a sister
Of the bride, was bridesmaid, and David

pier would he take Mary for his lawful

questions his manner became more reti-
cent. Miss Rutter answered the ques-
tion jccundly and her face beamed in
gladness when. the dominic said: you
are man and wife" When the cere-
mony was over Rev. Hanna told Epplel
to kiss his bride. "Uv course I will, hC
said and he did. Then the minister kiss
ed her, as did the other members of th'
family. The party then proceeded to the

THE HORSE SHOT HIM.
Threw a Gun Against a Tree and
Wounded His Rider.

Weimar is having q run of i'll
luck, there having been four kill
ings there within the past ten days.
Thursday Henry Warnken came
near making the fifth there. The
particulars of the accident are as
follows as sent from Weimar Satur-
day:
Friday while Henry Warnken,
about IA years old, was riding a
horse with a shotgun in his hand
the horse began to pitch, the gun
was thrown against tree, which
caused it to be discharged, and the
load entered the boys side and
arm, wounding him seriously,
though the attending physician
thinks he may recover. The boy
stayed on the horse and rode him
to the house of his father, VIM. III.
Warnken, a prominent farmer in
this community. The unfortunate
occurrence took place near Mr..
Warnken's residence. 1t seems
that this community is in bad luck
of late as to shooting affairs, acct
dental and otherwise.
Friday Jim Gibson, charged with
numbering Nose Allen the day be-
fore, both colored. had his examin-
ing rial here before Justice Han
cock, County Attorney Gregory
representing the State and Hon. J
G, Kindred the defendant. He was
allowed bail in the sum Of $1,000 t

stated that owing to sickness in his

lie had made and gathered his crop
barefoot. He owed an account of
$l4 at S. Kaplan u Bros, which he
paid. and started to leave the store,
still unshod Mr.. Kaplan called
hiny back and made him present
Of pair Of shoes This honest
farmer has evidently had hard
