Married on the evening of the30th ult., by Esquire J. P. Crother, Mr. Nela Peterson, of Humboldt, Neb., and Misa Libble Scovill, of Nemaha City. Being In Nemaha City Tuesday eve ning and learning that the Good Templar lodge would present an un commonly interesting feature that evening, we remained for lodge. At the usual hour, or probably a few minutes earlier, the lodge "was opened in due form. After the necessary business attendant upon opening was had, a motion for recess prevailed. Then the doors were thrown open and the candidates for matrimony, with their attendants, Miss Lucy Polock and Mr. Finch, moved leis urely into the hall followed by rela tives, and many friends, attracted thither to see the connubial knot tied Advancing to near tho oentro of the hall, the bridal party was met by Esq. Crother, who after reuding his authority, uttered the impressive cer emony, the conclusion of which, was tho pronouncing of the contracting parties husband and wife. The fair bride in choosing the lodge room as the place in which to be married did so through motives of genuine friend ship for those whom she had met with, and on occasions presided over, as W. C. T., for many years ; and it was deemed a fitting place to receive their congratulations and to Bay the sad "good-bye." After a short season of congratulations, aud a tune or two by Melvin'B orchestra, the bridal par ty retired from the hall while tho or chestra played the touching music "Put Me in My Little Bed." At the Scovill residence there were renewed farewells uttered, wedding cake pass ed, cigars, then the happy wedded couple sprang into the waiting buggy and started for Humboldt. The des cription of dress we have designedly omitted, for it is entirely out of our line, but must add that both were handsomely attired, the bride was richly dressed p.nd lovoly, and the bridegroom was manifestly happy. They will accept our thanks for their kindness, and our renewed wishes for nteiong nappmess. A large stocli of confections and lire yvorlts jsjst received and, will be sold at loiv prices.

On the street wo see a man with bright clean shaven face, clean neat clothes, polished boots, his hat brush ed, his hair arranged decently, and he wears a white collar and neck tie. We step across the threshold of his home. What do we see within? We see at once that they are poor, but the wife Is happy, at work, with some thing to work with; something to make up for the children to wear; something to cook for them to eat. The pleasant condition of this man and his family is different from what it was before his divorce from whisky and saloons. Thatgenteel looking man was then a drunkard and the saloon keeper got about all tho money he made, now he is sober, has been sober for several months. That contentod, huppy family was then the family of a drunkard, rendered miserable from Buffering and want, and that wife was sad at heart, weeping In poverty and for the shame that a drunkard's wife feels. That man wants to continue In tho path of soberness, peace, hap piness and plenty. That wife is hope ful. She hopes hor husband will bo ever ablo to perform his good reso lutions, yet nhc must droad the snares and temptations constantly set and planned for his fall by thoso who Beek to turn him into his former drunkon ways. The above plotures of the transformation of a drunkard to a so ber man and a miserable family to a happy one, Is true and will bo recog nized as true by many of our readers; and it tries our patience to tho utmost to think that there are individuals who seek to allure this man again to his old habits. Accursed be tho man that would do this. Let every tem perance man and woman In all their strength say accursed, and concen trate their strength to perform a duty as saored as it is momentous.
