Mrs. Geo. q. Thompson, Wednesday af-
ternoon at o clock, by Rev. Albert Mar

Mr.. Alfred Haskell Curtis.
Observation-Disclosures ii. Luke, Miss
Fannie Thompson.
This was one of the prettiest home we'd
dings it was ever our pleasure to attend.
The elegant house of Mrs. Thompson was
beautifully decorated with flowers. In
the large double parlor was profusion of
Marshal Neills and ge-auiums, while pen
dant from the double doorway was the
traditional wedding bell of roses and
Gala lilies. The dining room was trim.
med in pink and festooned with flowers.
/ In the center of the table was a LARGE
mirror, from which arose a pyramid of
4 flowers, and at either end of the table was
an old-time candelsbra, diffusing its mel
low light upon the scene.
Promptly at five O'Clock the bridal par
ty came into the parlor, to the strains of
the wedding march, played by Miss Belle
Holmes. The bride was leaning upon the
arm Of her guardian, Mr.. Jas. S. Perrin,
who gave her away. She was dressed in
Il beautiful blue silk, trimmed with point
lace, and carried n wreath of roses and
ferns. Never did bride look lovelier,
nor groom more knightly, than when, ac-
cording to the Episcopal church, they
pledged their marriage VOWS.
The bride is daughter of the late Mr.:
Geo. 6. Thompson, and is universally es.
teemed IN Yazoo City. Here she was
born and among these people she was
reared. 1t seems but yesterday since she
was little child, whose merry laughter
and childish pranks endeared her to her
fathers friends and made them her own

Isaac and Rebekah:
THE heart that once loved never forgets,
But truly loves on to the close;
As the sunhower turns to its Goa when
he sets,
The same look it turns when he rose
The heavens seemed to smile upon the

the future bring them only happiness,
and their lives be unclouded.
After the ceremony a bountiful repast
was serveI. and the young couple left on
the evening train for Memphis, where

 advantages as those of Southern Rail way in similar or neighboring territory. The western and Pacific stocks, as q | rule, were subjected to realizing. But there were a number of smaller rail-
 roads whose stocks were sharply ad- Yanced with an appearance of absorp- ton for control, which readily induced the speculative following among the professionals on account of the preVa lent feeling in Wall street that "a rail- road cannot be left out over night with out being snapped up by some syndi- cate"
 Wisconsin Central was the most con- spicuous instance of this class, both its stocks rising more than 3 points and

There were a large number of minor stocks which showed gains of point or more at one time during the day, but the cases are rare where the full advance was maintained.

Amagamated Copper was sold on account of the re- duction in the Anaconda. dividend and on fears that similar action would be taken tomorrow in the case of the Amalgamated dividend. International Power made an extraordinary upward movement of 1915 points, closing with a net gain of ITS. Rumors were current of some combination with American Locomotive.
 The gains were not we'll maintained in any case, and there were not few declines during the day among import ant stocks but the evidence that the financial powers which have been lead ing the speculation were still active kept the interest in the market awake i The money market showed no disturb ance, and there was no advance in the exchange market in spite of large sales of stocks for London account and the . demand for exchange on ! account of American subscriptions to { the new British consol loan, the terms of the issue of which were announced i to-day.

Heavy protit-talSng was in evidence all day long which kept the price almost constantly below Ia t nights level.

But the dis tinction drawn between J. P.
