yesterday. but the case was postponed ut
tho request OF the boys counsel. who

only in the soiomons case. and was not
prepared TO go on with tho others.
A peculiar feature OF the case H. that
yesterday morning the pistol that had
been taken from Belsingcr q Co.'S store.
was found IN the cellar OF the store where
IL had been thrown through the grating
either the night before or early yesterday
morning. The pistol was broken" 20
that IL would not be fired by contact with

usual amount Of money. Is that he pur-
chased, since the robberies were commit

TWO PRETTY WEDDINGS iac tet-
SOLEMNIZED YESTERDAY.
Peck-Catlin.

One of the prettiest of Christmas
weddings was that yesterday when
Rev. NJ. Cabell Martin pronounced the
beautiful service of the Episcopal
church that made William Peck and
Miss Ethel Catlin. man and wife.
The wedding was a complete sur
prise to their many friends. 1t was
known that the wedding was to take
place some time this winter but no one
thought it would be so soon. Mr.. and
Mrs. Peck are both members of the
choir at the Episcopal church and
were in their places yesterday morn
ing as usual, and few in the congrega-
ton suspected that within an hour the
two would be welded.
The church had been tastefully
decorated for Christmas and the we'd
ding, and as soon as the congregation
had departed Rev. Mr.. Martin called
the young people to the altar where
they were united in the holy bonds of
matrimony in the presence of the fam
lily and the choir.
Mrs. Peck is the third daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. B. S. Catlin and is one
of Ell Paso's most charming and hand
some young ladies. She graduated
from the city high school last summer.
Mr.. Peck comes from one of the oldest
and best families in ST. Louis and has
been in Ell ,Paso over a year. He is at
present connected with the Henderson
undertaking establishment.
ChrisS-Lunsford.
Henry P. Chriss and Miss Mary
Lunsford were married yesterday
evening at the home of the bride, 113
S. Florence street, Justice Ellis per-
forming the wedding ceremony.
There was quite a number of friends
of the groom and bride present, yet
the affair was so quietly arranged that
the happy event. After the wedding
and Justice Ellis had made an ap-
propriate little speech for the occasion,
wine and cake were spread and the
wedding party refreshed themselves
and enjoyed the occasion only as we'd
ding parties can.
Jessie Harmer and Miss Viola Brown
were the attendants.
A number of valuable wedding pres
ents were presented to the new couple
as we'll as congratulations for their fu-
ture welfare.
Mr.. Chriss is boiler maker. Miss
Lunsford was the only remaining sin
gle daughter of Mrs. Belle Reynolds
