At the residence Of the brides par
ents in Phillipsbnrg township, on
Thursday, January 6, 1898, by the
Rev. Theo. Bracken, Mr.. James Car
man and MISS Clara 0. Hughes.
The contracting parties to the
above marriage are so we'll and fav-
orably known to our people that the
usual laudatory announcement Of the
event seems superAuous. James Car
man has been a resident Of this Coun-
ty for years and stands in the front
rank Of typical American citizenship.
He has by careful management and
steadfast industry won for himself a
record cleaner than usually falls to
to the lot of the average man.
His bride, Hughes, is the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs E. g. Hughes. She
has been a teacher in one OF our
schools for several years, and has by
her example started many q youth on
the right path.
The newly married couply have
gone to housekeeping IN their new
home west Of the city. The HERALD
extends 10 them the warmest con-
grRtulations.

The Vega Murder.

We confidently expect to give to

name Of the man who murdered A. s.
Vega on the night Of December IA,
last. Slowly but surely a chain of
evidence is being woven into a net
which is now being drawn in before
many days pass by the criminal
will be landed before the bar of
justice. In this connection We may
state that the guilty man is mot
one Of our own people. Horrible as
was the crime il was made more
ghastly by the thought that there
lived among us one depraved enough
to commit such a deed. The sus.
pected party is almost a stranger in
our town. His past history is black
ened by three years residence in q
peniteniiary in neigboring state,
where under an assumed name no
was confined for three years for bur-
glary, "Hhe mills Of justice grind
slowly" but justice they so grind.
