Nuptials ot Mr. RoIiIiihou unci Mls Blssell at Trinity Latit Miclit and ol Mr. MuElwee suid Miss llriimmoud t First Presbyterian Toilny. The poetry of wedding music, youth, beauty, bridal robes, white and pink blossoms and a large and lashionable attendance at the celebration ol the Rob-inson-Bisscll nuptials at Trinity Iipit co pal church last night afforded society a November (unction of unusual interest. Trinity was crowded from an earlv honr. The chancel and altar and the surroundings were profusely decorated with palms and ferns and the drapery of flowers and vines was effective and tasteful. At 9 o'clock the music of Mendelssohn announced the arrival of ths bridal party within the church and the bride, In the escort of the ushers and ber maid ot honor, and immediately attended by her mother, advanced to the cbancel, where they were met by the groom and his best man and the im pressively solemn marriage service was begun by the rector, Kev. McXecly Du Bose. The ceremony of betrothal was ob served at the steps of the chancel, where the bride was given away bv her mother. The marriage vows were plighted at the altar and the ivory-hound prayer-book carried by the bride was exchanged with the minister for the bridal bouquet of white roses and the lovers were husband and wife. The bride's gown was of corded white silk, en train, with the low fitting neck and boulant sleeves filmed in tbe fleecy softness of a cloud of tulle; the flowing veil was confined at the crown with e single bud of the white ruse. The orna ments were diamonds, a gift from the groom. Miss Thcrese Cbalfant Bisscll, a sister ol the bride, assisted as maid ot honor, in a costume of pink chiffon over pink silk, trimmed with pink satin ribbon; PITIFUL SIGHTS AT MARION. Some Not Able To Rebulld-The Insur ance Coinpanlett Hit. Mahioh, N. C, Not. 27.-In the esti mate of losses, etc., sent you yesterday, Mr, J. S. Dysart's loss should have been $15,000 instead of $10,000; Mr. W. P. Craig's $10,000 instead of $8,000; Capt. Seigle's $4,000 instead of $2,000. And other losses hard to enumerate at this time, would make it about a round $100,000 fire, with about one dollar's worth in every eight insured. Several dwellings are filled with goods, some of which uninsured, are being sold. It was pitiful to hear the frantic screams of the terrified prisoners in jail when the flames were cracking overtheir heads. They were safely removed. Sc crest, the murderer, was tuken to Ruth erfordtoo vesterday. Our people are aiding each other commcndably. It is wonderful that no oue was injured in the excitement of the fire. Master ol Trains Foster of tbe Southern Railway came here and offered the town cheap rates lor new building material. This is timely aid and valued. Several Icadingrbnsiness men say that onlv brick or stone buildings should be erected hereafter on tbe business portion ot Main street. This is just what ought to be done, by compulsion, if necessary. Many people from the country and the towns around are coming into seethe ruins. We are glad to see so much pluck and cherfulness as shown by some. But with elderly people that lost all, not being able to rebuild, it is pitiful. Many have been the tears shed seeing that in a few short hours the saddened ones were reduced from independence to want. The insurance companies that are the losers are as follows: Virginia Fire and Marine, about $4000; North Carolina Home, abont $2000; St. Paul Fire and Marine, about $3000; Merchants, $2500; other companies about $2500, Grapho.

About two weeks ago the house and barn of State Senator Wade, who was absent in attendance upon the legisla ture in Atlanta, burned nt midnight. The men arrested vesterday confessed the whole plot.
