THOUGHT THEM MARRIED.

Quite a hullabaloo over nothing
was caused by the supposed mar
riage of a popular young attorney
of Ely and young woman of the
city on Sunday. So far did the re-
port proceed that a crowd of his
friends organized charavaring par
ty before the error was found out.
1t was all because the twain left Ely
early in the morning for a fishing
trip. During the day his friends
missed him from his haunts. It was
determined that there were only two
logical explanations of his absence
from the city. One was that he had
been married, the other that he had
met with foul play. Deputy County
Clerk ID. M. Mcdonald was hunted
up but denied all knowledge of a
license being issued. Not satisfied
and thinking that Dan might be
standing in with the supposed BRIDE
groom, the crowd prepared to make
things warm. II was not until later

ing party had commenced to gather
