Welded Only Two weeks.

Less than two weeks after their marriage
death entered the home of T. Heiskell
Shain, 1886 Page street, Philadelphia, and
robbed him of bis bride. Mr. Shain is
twenty-five years old and his wife was a
year his junior They bad been married
exactly two weeks, their marriage having
taken place at Mount Holly on Wednes-
day, July 10.
A few days after their marriage they
took up their residence in Philadelphia,
and it was there that Mrs. Shain com
planned of feeling i'll. She made light of
her trouble, however, and it was not
thought that anything was seriously
wrong until a physician was summoned.
He at once diagnosed the case as Bright's
disease and decided her condition was SO
critical that she must be removed to a
hospital at once, if there was to be any
chance of saving her life. This was done
but the disease had reached fatal stage,
and it was too late for the physician
skill to be successful.
During her illness Mr.. Shain was con-
slant attender at the hospital by his wife's
bedside, scarcely leaving her alone ex,
cept for few minutes at meal times. He
was still standing vigil at her side when
the end came on Tuesday night. Then
the strain that he had been laboring under
for the past few days proved too great for
his strength to overcome and he was
forced to take to his bed.
His courage came to his aid soon, and
he was able to accompany the body when
it was sent on Tuesday to the home OF the
brides parents at Mount Holly, where the
news of her death came as a complete
shock to her family and circle of friends.
On Friday afternoon the funeral took
place at the dead brides home, Rev. w. G,
| Mover, at whose residence the wedding
took place, officiating. The interment
was made in Brotherhood Cemetery in the
| family lot of the young woman's parents,
The marriage Of Mr. Sbain and Miss
Mary Emma Stradling was the termination
of courtship which had lasted several
wears, and received the approval of the
| families of both the bride and bridegroom.
Mr. Shain holds a position in the Stock
Exchange at Philadelphia.
Their engagement had been announced
| last winter and 1t had been intended than
the marriage should take place at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. William S. Rendell
with whom Miss Stradling had been living
for the last six years.
July 26 had been named as the date fol
the wedding, but the young people
thought they could not wait so long and
surprised their friends by going to the
residence of the Rev. Mr.. Meyer, 8
week earlier, where the ceremony was
performed by the Rev. johnson Oatman,
Jr The news of the wedding did not
leak out until the next day, when it was
announced by the happy pair themselves
They were welcomed with open arms by
the brides parents, who, when the facts
were explained, made no objection to the
change in plans which had excluded then

AsBuRY PARK is in the annual tumult
over the sale of liquor in its midst and
several arrests for Illegal traffic have been
made. Following this comes the discus
sion of license for that resort, with the
many arguments pro and con. There is
one thing to be borne in mind and that is
that the popularity and prosperity OF
Asbury Park is all the result of refusal te
allow the open sale of liquors. There
always has been secret sale and up te
date nobody seems to have suffered. Will
all the evasion or breaking the law, there
has been no complaint about disorder a.
that resort, and a drunken man is one Of
the greatest curiosities ever seen there.
