THEY GOT MARRIED.
An EIOpement That Turns Out Well
for all Concerned.

"A llJGl0 FOiuduC6 OCCuTTCu Ill buIS ClJy
Saturday evening, that is not always
down on the matrimonial bill of fare.
It was in the line of q runaway match g.,
which, however, has turned out all
right, and there is now no kick comm g
from anywhere
Miss Dodie Tays, a very. attractive
young woman, is the daughter of Mrs
, Alex. Tays, of 80 Wyoming street; and
= r. T. Mcpherson is a bright young
machinist in the G. Fl. shops, who
thought there was but one young wo-
man in the world, and her name was
n Miss Dodie Tays. The feeling was mu-
o tual, but Mrs. Tays did not share in
the mutually, as it were, of the admi-
e ration. She was informed that Mr..
Mcpherson was real nice young man.
and was we'll thought of in the shops.
But Mrs. Tays didn't know; she was
not certain that it would be just the
thing after all, and arranged for Miss
Dodie to spend the coming four months
in California. "Out OF sight, out of
mind" means good deal some times.
and the mother rather thought it would
be good opportunity to test the eff
) cacv of the proverb.
The young people caught on, and
realized they must be up and doing in
order to avert that California trip and
possible prevention of prospective
matrimonial ties. So after the young
man got through work Saturday night,
be slicked up, put on his store clothes,
and bright. winsOme smile, and joined
his lady love who had just gone out for
a walk, you know. The walk took the
couple in the direction of the court
house, marriage license was imme-
diately procured; and, we'll, to make
the story short, Judge Harper did the
rest.
The matter was arranged so quietly
that Mrs. Tays did not catch on for two
whole days. She noticed, in'the mean
while, that when she referred to the
prospective California trip. the daugh-
ter gave pleasant. but peculiar smile,
as though something was Matching. she
could not make out just how. which or
what. Then when the whole thing
came out" Mrs. Tays was highly in
dignant, and told the young lady she
might take her trunk and depart. The
bride did depart-to cosy home on
Kansas street, which her thoughtful
worse-half had provided for his charm
| ing bride, and there they were-in clo-
yer, at the same time hoping for a
reconciliation with the folks at home. |
The reconciliation has come: Mrs,
| Tavs' kindly heart has got the better |
of her wrath, and she has notified the
young couple to ''come home and be !
one of u.s. She says there is lots of !
room at her home, and they are well |
come. Mrs Tays stated this morning |
she thought that the couple were |
clandestinely married because they |
feared she would object to the young
man on occount of his being of different
religious faith from the Tays family.
Well, it was all right, now, she said.
Everything was smoothed over, every
thing was lovely, and the groom has
not only a good wife, but a good home.
