WAITING AT THE CHURCH.
But the Bridegroom Fails to Appear
TO Claim His Own.

But the Bridegroom Fails to Appear
TO Claim His Own.
SCRANTON, Pa, Sept. 27.-Miss
Margaret Mcdonald of South Scran-
ton is in a position to sympathize
with the young woman celebrated in
song for waiting at the church.
Attired in her bridal robes. with
the guests assembled and the priest
who was, to tie the knot, she waited
in suspense at her home Thursday
night for the appearance of George
Banner. her intended husband But
the hour set for the wedding arrived
and passed and the bridegroom did
not materialize. The young woman,
attended by several young ladies who
We're to have attended her, went to
her room, the priest returned to his
home, and the guests dispersed. At
the Church of the Nativity, where the
bridal procession was expected, the
lights were put out and the marriage
was off.
1t developed later that Banner was
broke" and that his stepmother, on
whom he had depended for the
money, went back on him at the last
moment. Without money he could
not pay for the wedding, and, instead
of going to the home of Miss Nc
Donald and explaining matters, he
| left the city.

SHE WAS ONLY CROSSING THE
STREET

She was crossing the street,
And the mud was quite deep
She had dear little feet.
She was crossing the street,
And the cop on the beat
Paused a moment to peep.
She was crossing the street,
And the mud was quite deep.

COMMENT ON MARKET.

Benjamin Woodruff, Of Post & Flags
Prices are low and the market in many
respects Oversold. There is a basis for a
substantial rally, were it not that the
people feel that no material advance in
prices can be sustained yet awhile. am
not especially enthusiastic about this
market. I think that conditions are
mending all the time, but unfortunately
most Of this buying is for short account
and Of course. this sort OF trading is not
lasting, although the market is still over
sold, in my Judgment, and may rally fur
ther. I think Mr. Roosevelts blasts, like
those Of LawsOn's, are becoming stale
and no one takes them seriously. The
market showed a fractional reaction in
the last hour, caused by scattered selling
by the traders, but there is really no
feature"
