YOUNG SNOW ALLEN BRINGS ABOUT
A SOMEWHAT ROMANTIC
MARRIAGE.
HIS WIDOWED MOTHER WEEDS
PERCY HIRsCH, FORMERLY OF
THIS CITY, AT NASHVILLE,
HIS PRESENT HOME.
FRIEND OF THE DEAD HUSBAND
And a Successful Guardian of the
Living Son, Makes the Widow
His Wife.

Mrs. George H. Allen, whose husband,
then deputy sheriff, committed suicide
at kohlman's lake, was quietly mar
ried at Nashville, Sept. 9, to Percy
Hirsch, the representative of the CUd-
ahy Packing company at that place.
News of the marriage, which was cele
brated by the Rev. DR.. Winchester, of
Christ church, reached the ears of Col.
Allen, father of George H Allen, sew
veral days ago, through one of the
Cudahy agents in this territory, and
was corroborated yesterday by letter
from the groom himself announcing the
fact
MIR. Hirsch enjoys a wide acquaint-
ance in the Twin Cities, having been
the travelling representative of several
OF the large wholesale houses, and later
the Cudahy representative in Mime
apolis. From there he was sent to
Nashville, when his firm opened an
agency in the South. The marriage is
not lacking in romantic features. 1t
appears that Mrs. Allen had known
Hirsch for some years, he having also
been a friend of her late husband.
Her son, Snow Allen, a lad of twenty
years, who has been rather a trial to
his relatives, has been kept out of Sc
rious mischief for some time by Hirsch,
for whom he showed a strong liking.
Soon after the death Of Allen, the
widow received a letter from Hirsch
stating that if she would send the boy
to him, he would find him a position
and keep an eye on him.
Mrs. Allen gave the boy funds, but
fearing that he might not get to Nash
Vile, accompanied him there, leaving
her sixteen year old daughter at the
Merchants, where she was living, in
charge of the colonel's family.
Shortly after that Col. Allen received
word from her that she proposed stay
ing in Nashville, and that if he would
send her furniture and funds to her,
she had secured a home there and
would take boarders. The denoue
ment is easily figured out. She had
married Mr. Hirsch, and is now hap
piiy situated in Nashville with her new
husband and her two children, the
daughter having gone down there
few days ago
Col. Allen and his family seem to re-
gard the situation as one to be happy
over, and have written to the couple
wishing them all the happiness in life.
Hirsch enjoyed the reputation here
of being a right good fellow and was
popular with his fellow commercial
men.

ONE OF BRAHMS.
Miss villa Whitney Whites Recital
in German.

Miss Villa Whitney White gave
thoroughly instructive and pleasing re-
cital last evening in Park Congrega-
tional. The programme was one of the
late Johannes Brahms songs, and was
an exceedingly interesting explanation
of the Romance of the Fair Magelfne."
Before each song Miss White described
the position and environments of the
lovers as they struggled toward the
contamination of their happiness,
which was to be found only in each
others presence. The xytist's pronunci-
alton of the German is distinct, without
being labored or harsh. She takes her
tones with ease and grace, and yet,
in the more tragic parts showed power
and passionate expression. While the
audience was not large, it was appre-
ciative and gave close attention. 1t
was the first presentation of the COM
position in st. Paul, and certainly, as
an artistic event, was a success.
