ure to Jefferson City, the previously arranged program of issueiug invitations to their many friends had to be dispensed with, aud the nuptials were strictly private, only the near relatives of the bride and M. II. Baker of this place being present. The marriage rites were performed at 1 o'clock, and at two o'clock the bridal party boarded the train for Jefferson City where they will remain during the present session of the Legislature, the bridegroom having Carter county's interests to look alter duriiig that time. They were met at the depot before departing by a host of friends, principally tiie lady friends of the bride, who tendered them appropriate congratulations and well-wishes for a safe and pleasant journey.

It is needless for us to say the bridegroom is well and favorably known here, his having resided in the county for several years, four of which his name has been a prominent figure in its official history. Of his efficiency and good standing, both as an officer and business man, we have heretofore dilated upon at length. The bride is one of four daughters of Thomas Clark, a respectable and well-to-do citizen of Doniphan, and is an accomplished, talented and popular young lady. The Local raises its little voice and enthusiastically joins the many and warm friends of the newly wedded pair in wishing them wealth, heal th. and prosperity during their journey through life.
