MARRIED SEPTEMBER FIRST
W. }. Bruett and Miss Maud HighIsy Sc.
cretly Married Nine Months Ago.

The friends and acquaintance
OF Miss Maud Highley and Mr..
w. j. Bruett received a surprise
on Monday, when the two an.
nounced that they had been mar.
ried since the first day OF last Sep
TENDER,
At the time OF their marriage
Miss Highley was attending the
autumn millinery opening liz st.
Louis. MI. Bruatt went to st.
Louis and after the plans of the
wedding had been perfected, he
and Miss Highley took the train
for Springfield, ILL.,, where they
were united in marriage. They
returned to Pennington separately
and not even their most intimate
friends were eggplant of the fact
that they were man and wife.
Mrs. Bruett conducted her mill.
merry establishment as usual. under
her maiden name, and Mr.. Bruett
soon after became engaged in the
restaurant business.
AT last they concluded that their
marriage had been kept a secret
long enough, and on Monday the
fact was announced. The two say
that the affair was held in secret as
a joke to surprise their friends.
How well they succeeded is now
known, and the fact of their being
able to keep the secret so long is
more of surprise than the knowl-
edge of their marriage.
Now that they have announced
their wedding to their friends and
the public, The TIMES joins in the
congratulations, and hopes that
they will be as successful in life as
they were in keeping their mutual
secret.
