ephone, with the Railroad Rate Com
mission at Madison was informed on
Tuesday that the commission would
settle upon and announce the price
which the city will have to pay for the
Water Works, within the next four

MARRIED.

Ieahr~i lelliIg'-on sunday evening,
June 20, 1886 by VIM. Bach Justice of
the Peace, Mr.. Max Rahr and Miss
Ella Piening.
1t is seldom marriage is announced
in which the character Of the parties
more fully promises the realization of
good wishes, than the above. Mr..
Rahr is general favorte, not in the
weak way Of being mice fellow, -
but in straits of sturdy character which
give his young manhood dignity and
make him respected. The woman who
trusts to his love has guaranty that
the future will be as happy as u man
of high character and good purpose
can make it. Max is not "showyn but
there is no alloy in his composition and
he will never disappoint good eXpecta-
tions.
His bride is young lady every way
worthy of the husband of her choice.
That happy and rare blending of winn-
ing courtesy and vivacious manner
with true womanly dignity, she has in
marked degree, and this secured her
a class of friends whose companion
ship is elevating.
In wishing the young couple happi-
ness the Pilot feels it is only predict
ing what is assured. The parties left
for visit to Colorado, New Mexico
and possibly California

Reports from Harper's Ferry indi-

six thousand Virginia troops stationed
at that point, including several troops

1t is also learned that the attempt OF
the garrison to destroy all federal prop

was only partially successful. The con-
federate forces succeeded in putting out
the fire before many of the buildings
were destroyed, and saved 1000 stands
