CHINESE WEDDING.
MOngolian Man and Maid Made One BY Civil
Marriage.


A somewhat novel wedding was that
by which Lieu Hee Sing and Moy Lee
were made husband and wife by Dis
trict Judge s.. J. Bonnifeld Jr. yester-
morning at 5 O'Clock.
The b~lushing bride, a Chinese miss
of about eighteen hot Winnemucca
summers, applied for and received the
license on Saturday. County Clerk
Dunn says this is the first time during
his nine years experience in granting
permits for two hearts to legally beat
as one, that the woman in the case has
applied to hin for a license to wed the
man of her choice. He was so surprised
that he forgot to collect the usual fee.
But the girl got the license.
The ceremony "a performed at
Judge Bonnifield's residence. The bride
was unattended, and, in accordance
with the Chinese custom, none of her
relatives were present. Deputy Sheriff
Rose acted as best man and Clerk
Dunn as usher. The latter's duties
were not onerous. as he had only to
find a seat for himself. The Deputy
prevent him from running away. The
later showed a decided
and seemed several times on the point
Of making a break.
Asa Murphy, the well-known restau-
rant-keeper, was the Chinese inter-
prefer. He was attired in a black suit,
with frock coat of the latest fashion.
He also wore a gaudy neck
tie and held his head high, owing per-
haps to the forcible persuasion of a
sky-scraper standing ollar
III brides costume was a dream of
loneliness. The spectators were so i'm
pressed thai we have been unab to get
from them an intelligent description of
the portions of her trousseau which
we've on exhibition. We should judge,
however. that the wedding dress was
in the height of Chinese fashion.
The bride was brought to the place of
the in a closed carriage and
departed in the same conveyance after
she had been made Mrs. Sing. The
groom and the interpreter trudged
through the sand from Chinatown to
the Judges house. and after the cere-
mon they trudged back again. Neither
bride nor groom spoke to each other,
and, according to the Monaghan GUS
tom. 1t is said, neither will be at home
as far as the other is concerned for
three days. The truth of this is not
vouched for. Further. it is sale that
the bride and her mother will not visit
each other for thirty days, though they
may pass the ordinary salutations
should they meet accidentally.
The groom is about forty-five years
old. owns a store. and is said to be
well-to-do. The bride is a daughter
of the late Dip Lee. a Chinese store
keeper of this place. She was born
here and is very intelligent. She reads
and writes English quite well.

NoN-cATHoLIc MISSION

py Psulist Fathers Tests Seating Ca
paclty OF AnnunCiaton Church.
The promises Of last week, as far as at
tendance is concerned. were more than full
nlled yesterday By the large numbers that
hlled the Annuncistion church. The sue
cess Of the non Catholic mission going on in
that church Is SURPRISING the most sangune
expectations. Twice yesterday the se9ttng
capacity OF the cnurch was tested IN TACT,
at the evening service extra seaus had TO
be provided IN order TO accommodate every
body.
For many Of the non. Catholics the morn
ing services was the nrst occasion for wit
Messing the Catholic form of worship In the
sacrifice OF the mass. Their interest was
very evident, and one non-CHthoUc remark
ed to one of the priests that the mass
served more than any Of the lectures 70
bring home to him the difference between
the Catholic and the nOn-tathOlC churches,
and suggested a serious train OF thought.
Father Hnndly's sermon at this service
was on Good Works; Faith Without Good
Works is Dead
His sermon In the evening, which he con
nected with the morning sermon was on
Grace and the Sacramento system
In both Of these sermons his purpose was
20 set forth the great problem Of good Nv
ing with it's lnseparable difficulties the
obstacles which beset man In even the
most honest effort to serve God Alright,
and the necessity Of some help and aHsur-
ance and encouragement Especially In the
point, namely, the necessity OF that assur-
ance which comes from a sensible, eN-
ternal and reliable knowledge that we are
actually serving God and arc In Gods
favor encouragement. too, he pointed out,
Is need OF human nature IN the Hight of
the many lapses from Gods grace whirn
an the life of tho ordinary CHRISTIANS
"This knowledge, and this encourage
ment, he said, came. and can come only
from some external sensible sign that we
are children OF God; that we have received
Gods Holy Spirit Abstract trust IN God
and confidence in the presence Of The
Holy Spirit Is not In accord with human
nature and its needs God has left VITA
us some tangible, certain signs. aud that,
too, by the institution Of Christ This Is
the Catholic idea OF the Sacrament ana
~ the sacramental system. II Is natural
that God should 50 deal with us, Il is per
feetly reasonable, aud is scrlpturai; II is
Christian"
Father Handy then promised that IN his
two following lectures be would take up
two Of the Sacramcnts aud show the work.

Tonight the lecture Will he on "Con.
