ceremony for "a Milwaukee Connie
reformed on TOP of Sky scrapcr.
William Learmann and Miss Barbara
wolf were married on the topmcst tow
er OF the Pabst building at Milwaukee
the other day, Justice Clarke perform
Ing the ceremony, L. L. He1wig and
John Ellis being the witnesses. Soon
after the couple reached Justice
Clarke's Office in the Pabst building. the
groom said the bride and himself would
ike to have the ceremony performed in
the tower. Permission being granted
by the superintendent, the party took
the elevator and rode to the thirteenth
floor, thence climbed spiral stairway
OF about 100 steps to the tower. This,
however, did not seem to satisfy Mr..
Learmann. He wanted to go higher,
and the party again started to climb a
narrow stairway.
The top reached, small door was
opened and the party found itself in
the open air, go feet above the ground,
on the balcony of the cupola, the second
highest point in the city. The Justice,
groom and two witnesses were bare
headed, and while the ceremony was
being performed all chung TO the
railing on the balcony with one hand,
while in the other they held their hats.
After the ceremony had been per-
formed they returned to the office
of the justice, where a picture of the
bride and groom was presented to the
justice. Mr.. Clarke will place the pic
ture on the wall of his office as a memen-
to of the marriage. The ceremony was
performed at the highest point above
the ground that marriage has ever
been performed in the city. About a
year ago Capt. Oleson, of the steamer
Escanaba, was married on the thir-
tenth floor of the building.

Among the most appreciated deliy-

The solos by Iii SEES Tommie Davis.

were excellent productions and won
much admiration. Duets by Mesdames

were choice selections and admirably
executed.
Essays by Miss Matte L. Mosley and
Mrs. Geo. b. Pettus were perhaps the
leading features of the evenings enter

compliments bestowed.
Mr.. j. NJ. Prewett was booked for an
essay, but owing to the lateness of the
hour he saw fit to omit its delivery.
Appropriate prayers were delivered
by the Reverends J f. Jernigan, J. d.

Full chorus, led by j. Z. Wynne was
highly expressive of the order and in

CRUSADE AGAINST PIE COMING.

New York Board Of Education May
Substitute Corn Beef Hnsh, Etc.
The board of education of New York
is about to declare war upon the pie.
superintendent Jasper, after n pro-
longed Investigation, has made up his
mind that the pie habit is making in
roads upon the health of the public
school children and recommends a
plan to break it up.
MANY of the children who lunch at
the Schools" said he, don't bring their
lunches from their homes, but, instead,
bring u few pennies to buy it with.
They are left, therefore, entirely to
their own Judgment. Their Judgment
runs to pie. They go out to the candy
store and bakeries and get piece of in
digestible mince, custard, lemon or
pumpkin pie, and eat it usually without
any warm drink to stimulate diges-
ton"
Tie plan of the superintendent is to
grant rights for the establishment of
lunch counters in the public school
buildings, atwhich hot soups, and light,
digestible articles of dict will lie sold
for q nominal price. The board viii
pass upon it at its next meeting, and
Will probably give lunch-countcr priv
ilcge to somebody as an experiment at
once
