Some interesting news concerning an
approaching marriage is being peddled
about town. The principals in the af-
fair both modestly deny the rumor,
but the preponderance of evidence is

around in his pocket, is the word of
those who are supposed to know
probably some who are privileged to
go through his pockets and find out

charity ball is an annual affair in
cities, but it is new to our town, and is
the all absorbing subject to those who
