sion took place before time location of the

delernihmed to meet at Adair.
The presbytery was not as well attended
as the local ministers and elders hoped for.
Many of the sessions within the presbytery
failed to send representatives , either by
their miners ( ( or elders. Time Women's

much largo assemblage of delegates. A large
majority of time district societies sent full
delegations ,

Time asphalt m'n : will stand pat , if time
friends of vitrified brick can present a petl
lion to the commeil on Saturday morning
signed by property owners representing a majority -
jority of the frontage on Pearl street , time
c ty council will declare in favor of paving
the street v itm ) brick and will order the
work done accordingly ,
That Is about the situation that the coun-
ci ! left time question in last night , after a
very full hearing from properly owners ,
When the council met there was a large
uunmber of hiterested property owners present -
ent The way was cleared far the consideration -
tion of the subject by the passage of an or-
dlnaiice providing that hereafter when any
street or alley is paved the cost , whim time
exception of the part taxed to railways or
street rnilwayc , slmll be taxed directly to
the abutting property owners and time city
shall be at uo expense for such Improvement.
\Vit'm ' tlms ! ordnance passed , the council went
into a couunittee of the whole and Mayor
Carson asked time property owners to make
their wants and wishes known ,
it , I ) . Amy was the first property owner to
respond. Ile represented a number of prop.
erty ownerq below Fifth avenue on Pearl
street and all wanted granite. lie lmad a
sample of Spencer granite and salt ! it could
he lad ! al about $2 per square yard. lIe
wanted sometldng durable and did not want
to pay for a pavement and then keep on
raying year after year for repairs ,
E , A. Wlcklam tvas called upon. Ile said
he understood that many of the property
owners who had originally sgned ! for as-
plaltnrn : had clmanged thelr ndnds and were
no v in favor of brick. Be mentlmled Merriam -
riam , the Grand Holey company , Baldwin ,
Bono , Shugart and other owners of properly
on the street who had experienced this change
t b arh
Leonard Everett Bald time best expression
of the property owners along limo street was
their petltlon. A majority of them had
slyned for asphaltum. lie said he had
originally been for granite. In March he
sent letters to the city engineers of twenty-
five clues of the country and asked them
concerning the price , durability and satis-
factlon of the Trinidad sheet asplmaltum. lie
had time replies , and they were uniformly in
favor of the asphalt pavement as laid by the
fBarber Asphalt company. He read extracts
om the letters and urged the council to
take action respecting time wishes of the
properly eonerN , and at 111P same time give
the city a clean , durable , metropolitan pave-
moot. Alderman Greensbields amid other
mnembers of the coumtcil questloned Everett
concerning the cost of repair-j and how they
should be made after the flve year guaranty
had expired. These questions were answered
by showing time custom in vagu0 in other
cItitea. Everett was opposed to brick rim
account of tin lack of uniformity in burning
and the lack of durability.
Mr. Wickham replied , citing cities that had
been using brick with the best results. lie
said he would guarante : brick for the same
period that asphalt was guaranteed and would
keep it .n repair after the expiration of the
guaranty at ices tlman half the coat of
keeping up the repairs on asp halt.
Alderman Grernshitlds elated that ho w'a9
convinced that the paving ss'ould be blocked
if time property owners insisted upon the
1150 of asphalt. This was becauro the park
comnmlesloners would not pay for asphalt on
account of a lack of fundsl , but would
ably agree to the uea of brick.
City Engineer Tostevin spoke strongly in
apposition to the use of brick , an dr lid , it
was Impossible to get good results , owing
to the Inability of brick manufacturers tr
fundeh brick of uniform quality. lie tuld time
advanced clues of the world were using
creosoted wood and asphalt ,
M. F. Rohrer entered a plea for asphalt
and Alderman Casper expressed his desire
for brick. Ile told the park comndsslonera
( ono of whom he is ) were in ancli shape finam-
clally thab they could not stand time price of
asphalt and did not know whether they could
pay for a brick pavement or not. Ile would
favor brick , however , and would use his 1n-
fiuonco to have the park board pay for that
kind of a pavement if it were ordered ,
C , E. Squires of Omaha , agent of the Barber -
ber people , explained his conpany's methods
of doing work , giving guanantees and making
repairs after limo c'xpirattomm of the contract
guaranty. lie smoothed me all over very
likely and made some statements that
brougld Mr. Wicklmam to his feet with another -
other chapter on brick and a refutation of
came of Mr. Squires' statemnnmts anti figures.
Finally It was decided , on motion of Mr.
Slnmbert , that time council aldjonra until 10
o'clock on Saturday morning , and that the
property owners ho requested to present their
petitions at'that time expressing their preference -
erenco for paying material.
At the Saturday morning meeting time council -
cil will alto pass upon time bills of the men

Tueelay evening Mr. W. 0. Pryor of this
city and Miss Helen D. Wheeler of Syracuse ,
N , Y. , were united 1n marriage at 310 Plal-
ncr street , Two detActlves , well armed
but dressed in citizens' clothes , stood at time
gate and closely scrutinized each gueat that
entered. They were there to prevent time
c-xecntlon of a murderous threat that time
young woman should be klllod before she became -
came a bride.
The mimarringe seas solemnized early In the
evening in the little cottage home that the
groan had provided and the ceremony was
performed by 11ev. J. Ii. Senseaey of the
First Methodist church , Mr. Pryor. Is the
son of J. C. Pryor , and Is now a Talesman
with the Drexel Shoe company ! n Omaba.
The bride is handsome and well bred , and
21 years old. Two years ago Fame visited
friends In Omaha and there became ac-
nquaied with Mr. Pryor. VV'hen she re-
tur11ed home she carried with her somethimtg
mere than a merely favorable opinion of time
handsome young man. The correspondence
that followed led to a mutual declaration of
love , and a short time ago she returned to
visit her Omaha friends. . Arrangements
for the wedding soon followed and the young
pr ph concluded to be married here hr
stead of at the bride's ltonio fn Syracuse ,
and begin life in their own cottage home.
Among Miss Wheeler's Syracuse friends
was a mnn named Wadsworthm , her second
cousin , who has been an ardent suitor amid
'vas practically her belhrotimed husband
Due she was 15 years old. Sumo omdeavored
to biealc peaceably with Wadsworth , but ho
refused. lie told her that unless she married
him she would never become a bride ; that he
would follow her odd kill her at the altar
If alma ever attempted to mar'y another man.
A few days before the time set for time
manriage arrived Wadsworth , time rejected
suitor , Caine here. Just what lie did or what
new threats he made the family have not
taken the public aubelentfy into their confidence -
fidence to declare , but the fact tlmal they
asked to have officers guard the house on
the night of time marriage is sufllcient evidence -
idence that 1Vadsworth's visit was not altogether -
together a friendly one. The police officers
and Marshal Canning were only acquainted
with enough of the facts to show- them that
there were come groundil for time fear of time
family , and teat police protection was really
necessary .
