Rich Mining Man Of Denver And Humble SaIesgid Mar ried After Weary Waiting And Many Obstacles,

DENVER. Sept. 30.-Loye finally triumphed over obstacles. bitterly contested for several years when James A Doyle. the millionaire min ing man, took for his bride Miss Mary Duffy, pretty employee of a dry goods store here.
 The romance of these two young people begun some years ago, has been beset with constantly recurring disappointments and opposition. First one interference and then another marked the slow but substantial growth of this romance, but in spite of drowning fate. live held its own, and so well that the marriage which was often despaired of by the young people has finally taken place, and the couple are now enjoying honey moon in the West
 The small disappointments which rose up from time to time to delay or prevent the marriage taking place were mere nothings compared to the yigourous objections of the Catholic wedding day.
 The church opposed. the marriage on the grounds that MT. Doyle was divorced man, and threatened ex- communication if the marriage was insisted upon.
 Miss Duffy is the daughter of MT and Mrs. Patrick Duffy, of No 2043 Grove street. Her father is a brick maker. Both parents are devout Catholics. and thep upheld the Church in it's decision and added their oppe sition to the wedding.
 Two years ago MT. Doyle appealed to the church to consider his request. His former wife is now married and travelling abroad. He contended in his appeal to the church that he was never legally married in the eyes of the church-.for the reason that his wife had not been baptized in the church. therefore he was not di- yorced
 A special ecclesiastical court took the matter ID, but nothing came of its deliberations.
 Finally the couple decided they would not wait any longer. and the wedding ceremony was performed by the Rev, Father Joseph B. Kirscher, i assistant pastor of St. Dominic's l church. at the brides home.
 Long before Doyle made his for tune and before his name became l known in mining circles, first through | several Cripple Creek ventures with ! Jimmie" Burns. millionaire owner of the Portland mine, he fell in love l with the little salesgirl. But his at- ] tentions were not at first encouraged. l But he said he was willing to wait 1 and in the mean time he turned his mind to fortune building. Fate seemed to favor his ambitions Sn this direc- tion more than Cupid favored his suit for the hand of Miss Duffy.
 With energy. youth and ambition he succeeded sn gathering a fortune far more than he had in his younger days dreamed of Meanwhile Miss Duffy remained heart free. Doyle having succeeded in business again renewed his early attentions. He pressed his suit for Miss Duffy's hand and finally succeeded in gedgtng hini- self a little bit in her favor.
 By the time Miss Duffy had made up her mind to accept Mir. Doyle's at tentions. disappointments, in the na- ture of sickness, opposition. parental and clerical, began to assert them selves; but Mir. Doyle was patient, and Miss Duffy was very much in love.

No marriage here has ever attracted more atten- tion and interest, owing to the -;cii- known difficulties which the parties experienced in the course of their romance. and because of the unusual beauty of the bride and the prominence in business circles of the bridegroom.
