Alderman Fishblate spoke in favos of the resolution and moved itr adoption, and Alderman King sec onded the motion. Alderman Pearsall moved to amend by striking out the words "four months," but agreed to an amend ment changing the time to two months. Alderman Ricaud spoke against the amendment. He understood, from good authority, that the road had been sold to responsible parties who had abundant capital and who intended to build it; but, he argued, if was unreasonable to require them to prepare their plans and go to work within sixty days. He thought that at least ninety days should be allowed.

Alderman Fishblate read a com munication from the President of the Water Works Company, in which it was stated that if seven addi tional fire hydrants are authorized in that section of the city East of Fourth street, so that hydrants shall not be more than 400 feet apart, the 1 companv would put in larger mains, ; i . " , , . ' ! and give better service.

"For Richer, For Poorer." At 8.15 this morning St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church was crowded from end to end, and even the side pews and gallery were oc cbpied, to witness the nuptials of Mr. Carl W. Polvogt and Miss M. Au gusta Lessman. The altai and front part of the pulpit were graced by handsome flowers and choice plants that had been arranged tastefully and skill fully by some of the ladies of the church. Mr. E. P. Boatwright pre sided at the organ, and promptly at the assigned time the young couple moved up the centre aisle of the church to the altar, preceded by Messrs. Aug. Zoeller, Robert Katz, F. A. Bissinger and Louis Turner. Then came the groom and Mr. J. H. Rehder. The Misses Lizzie Ulrich and Elsie Bissinger accompanied and conduct ed the beautiful bride to the altar, where the groom stood prepared to meet her. Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, according to the short and scriptural liturgy of the Lutheran Church, then pronounced them husband and wife in the name of theHoly Trinity. The bride was dressed in a beauti ful blue silk dress and, always a handsome young lady, never looked sJweeter and more attractive than to-day. The groom wore a costly PrjnceAlbert coat and suit to match, and with his handsome, blooming, blushing bride presented 'anjunusu ally fine appearance. Both received many kind compliments. At the conclusion of the marriage and after the benediction, Rev. Mr. Peschau asked permission to detain then just a few minutes, and read and then presented to them some resolu tions of regard adopted by the Church Council, that were very complimentary to the young couple and contained also the congratula tions of the Council, on their happy union. Accompanied by quite a large j number of friends the happy young couple proceeded to the Weldon j depot, to leave for New York City, j where they will spend a few weeks ; among friends. Having known both the groom I and bride from childhood's sunny I davs, and having Known them bnt to honor them for their pure lives 1 ud upright coudqer, we most heart Uv congratulate thetu both and wish I e a - -I mem a long, a nappy, ana a pros perous life.
