ALFRED HUBBARD
A Brave Bridegroom and Beautiful
Bride

OF this city was TILED to overflow
ing on Thursday night last by
the friends Assem- bled to witness
the Maria ge of Miss Nellie Hub
bard, daughter Of Captain and
Mrs. Geo. NJ. Hubbard, to Mr..
Neili Mcpherson Alfred, eldest
son Of DR.. and Mrs. G.. j. Alfred.
Through the kindness of many
friends the church was most tlab-
orately and beautifully decorated
with festOons OF evergreens,
palms and ma gnolias, and pre-
sented falry-like picture Of love-
illness, never before equalled IN
our clty's history.
Electric lights shed their soft
radiance over the fashionable au-
dlence assembled in expectation
o! the event which was TO unite in
the bonds Of holy wedlock one of
Ocala's most beautiful and be-
loved young ladies, and one OF
our clty's mcst brilliant, popular
ard distinguished legal lights.
Promptly at $50 O'Clock Or
ganist Pine struck the opening
chords Of the march from Lohen-
grin, and the uShers, MesSrs
Waldo MarJln, Carlos Sistrunk
and Verne Stevens, were seen
proceeding up the eastern aisle.
Opposite the ushers, IN the west
ern aisle, walked Miss Xena
Herndon, COUSIN of the bride, and
maid of honor, a picture Of blonde
beauty in a pale yellow chiffon
gown, and carrying a bouquet OF
white roses:
Miss LlIIias Alfred, the stately
sister Of the groom, followed,
gowned in pale green and carry
ing pink roses.
Last, leaning upon the arm Of
her father, came the bride,
dream Of loveliness in a creation
of white organdie over white silk,
and carrying a beautiful bouquet
Of brides roses.
The bride and her father were
met at the chancel by the groom
and his best man. Mr. Hertert
l.. Anderson, and the Wedding
party proceeded to the altar,
where DR.. j. G.. Law awaited
their coming, and in the impress
sive ceremony Of the Presby terian
church, conducted the ceremony.
Immediately after the prayer
concluding the ceremony, Men
delssohn's wedding march was
played, and to it's strains Mr..
and Mrs. Alfred left the altar and
proceeded down the western
aisle, followed by Mr.. Anderson
and Miss Herndon, Mr.. Martin
and Miss Llliias Alfred, and
Messrs. Stevens and Slstrunk.
Following the church cere mony
came the reception to the bridal
party and a few intimate friends.
The reception was held at the
beautiful home prepared by Mr..
Alfred for his BRIDE, and situated
immediately n the rear o. the

LudIow's Victory over shafter.

General William Ludlow, who is
achieving high fame as the first Ameri-
can governor of Havana. owes his pres
ent command to a personal victory he
gained over General Shafter in the first
days of the Santiago campaign.
He had long ago attained fine rec
ord as a Typographical engineer, and
was one of the first regular army officers
to seek service in Cuba. With a scarce
ly dried commission of brigadier general
of volunteers in his pocket he fastened
to General Shafter.
Seeing that General Shafter already
had competent engineer on his staff,
General Ludlow applied for command
of brigade on the fighting line, and
mentioned the First brigade of the Sec
ond division. General Shafter looked up
in surprise and exclaimed: 81 thought
you were an engineerl"
$50 am, replied General Ludlow,
''also an artillerist, or cavalry officer,
or an infantry officer, at the will of my
superiors, like every trained soldier
General Shafter began parleying, and
General Ludlow, in the mildest manner
possible, insisted, morning after morn
ing, until he received it. After the ter
rible battle of Ell Caney he was promot-
ed to be a major general. Philadelphia

Wanted RiIey,s Autograph.

The Philadelphia Record says: "The
strength of the fad for autographs was
strikingly shown yesterday, when scores
of clerks and customers besieged James
Whitcomb Riley while he was modestly
making some book purchases in large
department store.
''As soon as the Hoosier poet was
sighted near the latest book counter the
news quickly went the rounds of the
clerks, and within a half hour Mr.. Ri
ley had obligingly signed his name to
100 cards. Customers who were at the
book stalls at the time or were attracted
thither also took advantage of the OPP
portunity and secured the signature Of
the poet.
''To one of the clerks Mr.. Riley said
that on the average he receives 900 let
tiers day asking for his autograph and
many more personal requests while on
his tours. When not in humor for
composition the poet, as a mental di-
version, occupies himself in signing
the thousands of cards which ne yearly
receives -

The Dutch Queen.

Queen Wilhelmina of the Neither
lands dislikes to be called ''the little
queen. She thinks the phrase reflects
upon her kingdom, as she is feet e
inches in height. The queen of Spain
is only feet 25 inches; the empress
of Russia, feet 21a inches; the en-
press of Germany and Queen Victoria
still smaller. Aside from her height,
the young Dutch queen is also of the
best build. Her 2115 inch waist meas
ure and ~ inch bust give an admirable
proportion. Her powers of endurance
were well tested on coronation day,
when for six long hours she wore the
ceremonial mantle of red velvet trim
med with ermine, weight of not less
than 80 pounds, and showed no marked
symptom of fatigue.

Glorious Eternity.
Some years ago was sailing down
the st. John river, which is the Rhine
and the Hudson commingled in one
scene of beauty and grandeur, and while
was on the deck of the steamer a gen.
tleman pointed out to me the places of
interest, and he said All this is inter
val land, and it is the richest land in
all the provinces of New Brunswick and
Nova Scotia" ''What," said I, edo
you mean by interval land ?''' "Well,
he said, ''this land is submerged for a
part of the year; spring freshets come
down, and all these plains are over
flowed with the water, and the water
leaves rich deposit, and when the wa
tiers are gone the harvest springs up,
and there is a richer harvest than I
know of elsewhere. - And I instantly
thought, ''It is not the heights of the
church, and it is not the heights of this
world that are the scene of the greatest
prosperity, but the soul over which the
floods of sorrow have gone, the soul
over which the freshets of tribulation
have torn their way, that yields the
greatest fruits of righteousness and the
largest harvest for time and the richest
harvest for eternity Bless God that
your soul is interval 1andl
