The PRETTY
BRIDE WEPT
Cried at Station Because Of
Husbands Arrest.
FOUGHT ON MARSHALL ST.
LIB. Livingston Was the Groom, amp
He Charges Mike Higgins Not Only
With Fighting Him but With
Taking His Money
FOUGHT ON MARSHALL ST.

Most bridegrooms expect to be held up
and robbed, but there is one In Richmond
now from Georgia who rebelled. and last
night had a man arrested charged with
the crime. @
Mr.. L. B. Livingston. OF the Empire
State, took to himself an unusually
pretty wife in Washington on Thursday.
and the happy couple arc now travelling
leisurely to their home.
While visiting the places OF historic
interest in Richmond they are stopping
at a well -known boarding house on East
Main Street. Last night the groom and
Mike Higgins, who claims Ohio as his
home, got into q rough d-tumble fight
on Marshall Street, in the presence OF
the bride, causing no end OF excitement.
Policemen Howell and Schlief. who
were on the Broad Street beats rushed
up and placed both men under arrest.
They were taken to the Second Stations
House. and. Of course. the bride went
with them. She at once burst into tears
upon finding her husband arrested. She
was terribly frightened, thinking he
would be locked up.
AT the station-house the groom gave
his name and said their marriage took
place Thursday, and they were now on
the way home. He said that Mike Hig-
gins. whom he had never seen before.
fought him and succeeded in taking 81
from him. The charge Of fighting had
already been preferred against both. but
the groom went Mike one better by
swearing out a warrant charging MIN.
with highway robbery.
Higgins. when questioned, said .he was
from Toledo, o. He denied making the
attack on Livingston unprovoked. All
the while they were in the station-house
the bride wept copiously. and pretty
woman and a bride in tears was little
more than Sergeant Talley could be cruel
to. so Livingston was allowed to go with
his bride to their boarding place, He
gins was locked up.
