GEORGE BIDLEMAN.

The death of George Bidleman,
which occurred at his home on Iron
street early Saturday evening came as
a shock to his many friends, for al
though it was known that he was suf-
fering from stroke of paralysis which
befell him little over week previous
it was not generally believed that he
was in any real danger Of death. Mr..
Bidleman had resided in this town for
long while. He had followed vari-
Gus pursuits in life. Years ago he
was farmer, then he engaged at the
Bloomsbury Iron Cos furnace, but
latterly,and until poor health prevent
ed, he was employed at the then
Lockard Car Shops, new the Ameri-
can Car and Foundry Company.
The deceased was about sixty-five
years of age and leaves to survive him
a family of four, two sons and two
daughters, namely Mrs. John Wharn
of Newton, Iowa, and Mrs. Clara
Woodring, Samuel and Joseph of this
town. Mrs, Bidleman died over a
year ago.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at his late home Tuesday morning
at ten o'clock, Rev. J. d. Thomas,
pastor of Trinity Reformed church, OF
which the deceased was member Of
hciating. The obsequies were at
tended by large concourse of friends
who followed the procession to Rose
mont Cemetery. AS the remains
were being lowered from mortal view,
a current of tender recollections swept
through the minds of those who were
present, as they thought of his numer-
GUS good qualities.

The lady clerks in l. w. Hartman's
store as we'll as several pedestrians
who chanced to pass by at the time,
had considerable fun at the expense
OF newly married Welllversville
couple Thursday afternoon last.
Alighting from carriage in front of
the above named store, the two as
cended the stairs leading to the Cap
we'll studio for the purpose of having
their pictures taken. While they were
thus engaged the clerks were inform
ed by person who appeared to be
intimately acquainted with the couple
that they had only few moments be.
fore plighted their troth at the M. f.
parsonage. Without any further cere-
mony the young ladies who are ever
ready for spat of fun set to work to
decorate the carriage. A pair of old
shoes were tied on the rear end, white
ribbon were fastened on the harness,
and two placards bearing the inscrip-
ton, "We were just married, Put us
off at Buffalo," and "Married-Just
Because She Made dem goo goo
eyes," written in large and plain let
tiers fixed in conspicuous places. When
the couple appeared on the scene, the
groom surveyed the situation, tore off
tho decorations, threw them on the
pavement, and with look of displeas-
ure assisted his fondest hope into the
carriage and drove off amid shower
of rice from the clerks. 1t was good
Joke, but if there is any truth in the
saying that factions speak louder than
words" the groom didn't appreciate
