COI1UHO , April 19. Heal royal weather
attended the royal wedding. The. whole
city was cnfcto In honor of the grand duke
of IIcsso and hla bride , Princess Victoria ,
the daughter , of the duke of Saxe-Coburg
( lotlm and Edinburgh.
Additional Interest wan , of course , lent
to the occasion by the almost unprecedented
nrrny of royal and Imperial luminaries that
liml gathered hero to attend the ceromony.
The city was literally packed with royal
and Imperial guests , foreign visitors and
Herman sightseers.
K\ery building was decorated In some
manner. Even the modest cottages have
home display of bunting , while the Im
portant thoroughfares and prominent build
ings are burled beneath decorations of
c\ery description and color. Early In the
morning the sky was overcast , but the sky
teen cleared to a beautiful blue and the sun
beamed gloriously upon this temporary
headquarters of representatives of nearly all
the- Imperial and royal families of Europe.
The rirst dragoon regiment band filled
the air nt short IntfrvHla with delightful
music , playing In front of the Edinburgh
palace. The schloss platz and the ter
races overlooking the park were so thronged
ut 10 o'clock that the police were compelled
to drive persons nway In order to prevent
dangerous crushes.
According to the "ceremonial" decided
upon by Queen Victoria ( all arrangements
having been submitted to her In Klorence )
the marriage was to take place at noon pre
cisely In the private chapel of the ducal
Hchloss with full state In the Lutheran
htyle. Following German precedents there
were no bridesmaids , but the bride wSs sup
ported by her younger sister. The private
rhapcl at schloss was thoroughly redecorated
for the occasion , and as the wedding took
place on Primrose day , prlnuose entered
largely Into the. Interior decorations , these
flowers having been sent from England for
the occasion. Queen Victoria was accom
panied to the chapel by the duke of Saxe-
Coburg Gotha ( the duke of Edinburgh ) ,
father of the bride , and was escorted to an
arm chair In the front row of the distin
guished guests and ne\t to Emperor Will-
lam of Germany , by whose side was the
duchess of Saxe-Coburg Gotha ( the Grand
Duchess M.irlo of Russia , bister to the c/ar )
There were borne delays In the proceedings
and consequently It was 12 30 p. in. before
the ceremony commenced , but It was a most
brilliant and Impressive function In the
wedding procession Emperor William accom
panied the duchess of Coburg and ex-Em
press Frederick followed alone. The prince
of Wales and the czarowltch came next ,
walking together. The bridegroom entered
nlth his supporters , his uncle , Prince Henry
of Hesse and his brother-in-law , Prince
Henry of Prussia. The bride came In last ,
supported by her father and brother and uc-
cnmpanlcd by her sisters.
The prince of Wales bat beside ex-Empress
Frederick of Germany ( eldest daughter of
Queen Victoria ) , and next came the craro-
wltch. These distinguished guests occupied
front seats on cither side of the aisle corro-
Hpondlng with those of Queen Victoria , Em
peror William and the duchess of Coburg.
'
Other Important personages tilled 'three ro\\s
behind each other and other Imperial nota
bilities already mentioned , but the suites ,
court olllclals and ministers In attendance
remained standing throughout the ceremony.
Among- other distinguished personages
present were the duke and duchess of Con-
naught , Prince and I'rlncuss i omy of Prus
sia , Grand Duke and Grariil uuchcES Vladl-
knlr of Russia , Grand Uuke Serghu of Russ'u
mid his wife , formerly the. Princess Eliza
beth of Hesse-Darmstadt , the Princess Allx
of Hesse , the crown prince and princess of
Tloumanla. the hercdltaiy pilnco and prln-
cebs of Saxo-Melnlngen , Prince and Princess
Philip of Coburg , Prince George of Greece ,
J'rlnce Arlbert of Anhalt and Princes Henry
uml Louis of Battenburg.
The sun shining through the chapel windows
dews upon the distinguished assemblage ,
ladles In court toilets , sparkling with jewels ,
their bright dresses contrasting beautifully
\\lth the gorgeous uniforms of the main portion
tion of the guests , the elaborate floral deco
rations , the grandeur of the old chapel and
the natural solemnity of the surroundings ,
formed a magnificent tout ensemble which
has not often been equaled of recent yeais
In any country In the world.
Queen Victoria wore the broad blue rib
bon of the Order of the Garter and upon her
head sparkled a magnificent crown of dia
monds. Her majesty remained heated
throughout , as her age and Infirmities pic-
vented her standing when all the other wed
ding guests arose during certain portions of
the marriage service. The general superin
tendent of the Lutheran church , Pastor
Mueller , officiated and was assisted by the
court chaplain of the grand duchy of IIcsso
and five local clergymen.
After the address had been delivered the
bride and bridegroom plighted their troths
nnil the wedding rings were exchanged.
Then came the benediction , after which
Mendelssohn's Wedding March was grandly
played and the ceremony was at an end.
The newly married couple afterwards kissed
their relatives In turn and the procession was
reformed and left the chapel at 1 o'clock
nnild the booming of cannon.

and convicted nnd sentenced to bo hanged

CITY COUNCIL AFTER MONEY.
Twelve members of the city council held
an Important conference with the county
commissioners this forenoon In nn effort to
clear up some conflicting provisions of the
law govcinlng the division of the road fund
between the city and the council. According
to the old law the city treasurer paid over
to the county treasurer one-half of the
amount paid In for the road fund by the city
taxpajers. Last year this half amounted to
$ ( ) , COO. The last legislature amended the
law so as to empower the city council to
add to the county road levy n sufficient per-
cantago to make the total levy not to ex
ceed 3 mills. The law was also amended s > o
as to permit the clly council to expend the
entire amount of money realized from the
road tax on clly property. There nre , how
ever , some conflicting provisions of the law
which sland In the way of the Immediate
transfer of the money from the county to
the city. Tht commissioners are willing
lo pay over Hie money providing they can
be shown that the transfer Is perfectly legal
After discussing Iho matter for several hour !
the matter was left to County Attorney

MADE A FRUITLESS CHASE.
City Detecllve Malone and R. D. Miller ,
the latter of the Lincoln Savings bank , had
an exciting chase after nn Imaginary horse
thief this forenoon that had u somewhat
ridiculous ending. This morning n farmer
named John Moore drove a horse and cart
Into the city and tied the animal in front
of the court house , while he went Inside lo
pay his taxes. When he emerged from the
building the horse was gone. After satis
fying himself by a hasty search that the
outfit was not in sight , he went nt once to
the police station and gave n complete de
scription of the rig. Mr. Miller was present
and happened to remember that he had seen
but a few moments before such a rig going
rapidly north , on Tenth streel. Miller had
a horse nt the station which Is rather
speedy , and so he took Moore Into his buggy
and starlcd In pursuit. Delectlvo Mulonu
started In another direction with his horse
and light road buggy. Doth of the pursuing
horses were urged to their best endeavors.
When six miles from the city Moote related
to Miller all the circumstances of his visit
to the couit house , and In the conversation
It leaked out that the farmer had entered
the court house at one door , and , after ram
bling around the maze of corridors , emerged
from the building at another door. Turning
about. Miller icturned to the city , and the
farmer found his horse patiently standing
with his nose to the Idenllcal post at which
ho had been tied In the early part of the
forenoon. Detecllvo Malone returned after
diivlng seven or eight miles north of the
city.

It's the Standard Fashion ,
in slung nnd cleaning , to use Pearline. Cer-
the enormous amount of it used every year
proves it. Millions of women use nothing
else. And when you see a fashion so univer
sal , so sensible , and so unchangeable , why
not adopt it ?
There are many things that try to
imitate Pearline. Some of them
may be more or less successful for
, awhile butthepublic is learning ,
vi " You can't fool all the people all
] ) the time" and the women who
want the best thing to wash with ,
one that is absolutely safe. will
continue to use Pearline made
only by James Pyle , New York. n
"It is the mind that makes the man , " said Wat s , but &
modern ethics deny this , and give the credit to the tailor , m
9 It is ciuestionable , however , if the latter is correct , Don't at
be a ready made man , is the tailor's motto , but be a "Man
ready" to part with your money like a fool. On the other
hand the man of mind will keep his money and become
"ready made" and appear as stylish as a tailor's victim. tf
The Nebraska does not wish to pose as a dress re
former , nor begin a c/usade against tailoring , but as it al tfj j
ways does protect the public by legitimate advertising
We handle tailor made clothing by it we mean we sell
clothing made by the leading wholesale tailors of the coun \
try we claim that we'll furnish you with a tailor-made
suit which contains equal virtues to the one your tailor
makes made by hand finished by hand buttonholed by
hand a point stronger , if you please many a garment
that'll furnish a model for the average local tailor. ,
It is also reasonable to assert we show more styles. A
score of manufacturers , competitively inclined , will surety ,
produce more novel things than a tailor with one brain
We show full ' -Regents , " in both sacks and frocks ditto
in half "Regents" 3-button "Yale" in sacks or frocks and
likewise in Piccadillys , and a some few more typical and
perfect frame fitting garments.
And the cloth a tailor might call it suitings is in
many instances far better than in the suit you pay double
. of our price for. We show imported and domestic wors
7 teds , thibels , cassimeres , unfinished worsteds , clays , oxfords -
? fords , serges etc. , draped artistically with silk serge , satin
or perhaps less fancy and more durable materials and the
prices are a good deal less than ha'f.
