WEDDED THE WRONG GIRL
John Kobilsky'j Distressing PlicM, Due to
a Bad Jjxtrpreter.
Wilkbxbabri, ra., Nov. 24. Alder
man J'lhu liriftlin of tbia city got him
elf hod a Hangarian lad and lassie
into a decidedly odd matrimonial
pickle yesterday by marrying the man
to the wrong girl. Into the court
huase marched squire John Perkins,
accompanied by a Hungarian lad
and a blooming-cheeked Hangarian
Uhm. They wanted a marriage li
cense, and Perkins acted ax interpre
ter, as he ban of late mustered that
long-y liable lauguage.
'lhey want to be married, said
squire l'erkics, and squire ISrislin
voluuteered to perforin the ceremony,
after the license had teen duly made
out and pocketed by the prospective
groom, John Kobalsky, whose bride
wsh docketed as rareida Siebelsk.
.A wedding ceremony wa duly and
legally performed, John and the sup
posed Fareida, whose hands bad been
joined by Perkins, nodding a half-!-
wildered assent to the alderman s
questions "you take this woman to
l your wedded wife? etc repeated
in presiitn.i y good Hungarian inter
pretation to the pair.
. After the knot had been firmly tied
and alilerman Bri&luffTTended his
hand and mildly asked for the $3.50,
the groom exclaimed in horror:
"Me no want to get married. Me
no tink you doiug that. This ain't
the girl, anyway, and you,,' he shout
ed, Blink in-' Ins clenched list in front
of Brislin's face, "ain't no priest."
Not a word of the ceremony, it
seemx, had been understood by the
pair, aud John, who had only brought
a feminine friend along to help him
answer questions and get the license
for Fareida, was astounded and very
wroth when he discovered the error.
Hut the couple were regularly wed
ded, and only s decree of court can
untie the kn. t to the tying of which
both had .so freely, yet misguideJly

question. Only one thing is certain,

A Soldier
Musician's
Plea.
Strange
Dayton, O., Nov. 24. The trial of
Max Gripprich, a musician, charged
with stealing money and jewelry, re
ceived a sudden termination. He con
fesses his crime, but advan es in ex.
tenuation the plea that playing upon
the oboe has the tendency to make the
performer insane. He is given the
minimum sentence of one year. At
first the plea was considered absurd
but a number of musicians have en
dorsed the prisoner's statement. They
aver that the reed mouthpiece to the
oboe is so small, and it is so necessary
to blow strongly in it.that players frej
quently feel the effect in their tem
pies. A move will be made to get
Gripprich off on this ground.

approach, and, with a single charge
of birdshot, put out both eyes of the
rapidly approaching bear. The ani

ever, and was about grasping him Jerry
nimbly slipped behind a tree trunk.
The bear's skull struck it with resist
