have not made it'i my mind what 1

It Is not believed that .Mr. Aleiritleld
will like the nomination. The men
who were responsible for his nomina
tion have been endeavoring to show
him how ho can be elected. They make
the unsupported assertion that the Re
publican party Is not in good slripe for
a battle and that the entire farmer vote
of the county will be cast for the free
silver candidate.
They also nrgue that the boom caused
by the coming of Candidate ilrynn to :
Seranton during the first week in Pcto- j
her will bo siilhelent to elect the Demo
cratic ticket. It is proposed to hold an ;
Immense meeting nt the Driving Park,
which it is thought will attract an j
audience of L'.'i.fleil people. I
These are a few of (lie reasons that
a ew or t ,e reasons .tin

The chances are big, however, that
he will not take the nomination.
AMUSEMENTS.
Miss Margaret Fuller will appear for
the lirst time In this city in "The
Daughter of Paul Komaine." She is
an actress of wide experience and of
reputed marked ability, who has for
several years enjoyed the applause of
the British public. She will appear nt
the Academy of Music on Friday, Sept.
It. The nlay is a new one written us
peelally for her. Little has been said
in advance of Allss Fuller's varied abil
ities, but the prediction hns been made
that she will please the theatre-goers
of Seianton.
A few days since, Harry Clay Hlaney
received from a 1'ufl'alo surgleai linn,
n patent appliance known as a "leg
stralghlener" nnd a, letter stating: "It
Is a well-known fact that you have the
worst twisted legs In the theatrical
profession. If you will use his apnll-
ancc, and give us a testimonial, you i
can name your fee." .Mr. I'.laiiey re
Plied: "I nin very sorry I am not able
to comply with your request, for il my
legs became strabrht. It would lie im
possible for me to play my part In 'A
Hoy Wanted,' as it requires a 'Crooked
Hoy.'" A!r. lilaney Is not very sensi
tive on this matter, ns his crooked legs
has given him a world-wide reputa
tion, ifo will he seen nt the Academy
of Aluslc mi Saturday evening In "A

The secret of how to have a good time
if there Is a secret involved was
made known last night out on the
FJiuhurst boulevard by a congenial
party of well-known Seranton men nnd
women nt "Venga 0'trave.."The ipio

i might mean almost anything lo anyone
but a linguist; In Spanish it means,
; --nine nr-:iln." and Ycnga Otrave In
this case Is the name of the woodland
hut owned by Dr. G. K. HHl on the
boulevard. The hut last nighl was the
scene of a royal good time. In nnd
about it were gathered over a score of
Dr. ami Mrs. Hill's most intimate
friends nnd they made the welken ring
until n wee sniti' hour this morning.

Last night It was a center of n mass
of light made by scores of Chinese lan

the hut nnd out-of-doors was spread a
table containing all sorts of good things

and early this morning. In the interim
dancing nnd informal Joviality was the
order-and In speaking of dancing it Is
not. Implied Hint the men wore dress

cycle or lounging dress was good
enough for the former, while "just as
good ns you are" was good enough for
the ladies.
The music wns furnished by Knutnitel

hails from is not known. A trio of

COLONEL W ATKINS MARRIED.
She Heroines the Bride of Staff Cap
tniu I'. Lindsay.
Colonel Pattle Watkins and Staff
Captain F. Lindsay, of the American
Volunteers, were married in Carnegie
Aluslc Hall. In New York. Tuesday
night. 'Miss Watkins Is the earnest
young woman who was heard In this
city a few weeks ago in the volunteer
tents. The New York Herald of yes
terday had an extended report of the
somewhut novel ceremony, from which
the following Is taken:
There Is a large splco of romance in
the wedding. Four years ago. Mr.
Llndsey, a business mnn, dropped Into
the Kowcry barracks, where Pnttie was
preaching. He fell In love with her
"llrst and was converted afterward.
.Several stanzas of a hymn were sung
to the tune ot "Marching Through
Georgln."
"That Is excellent," said Commander
Booth. "Let us pray."
He knelt and softly Intoned "Rock ot
Ages." Gradually It swelled to n
mighty chorus. At Its close he called
upon Mrs. Captain Hyslop for a prayer.
She responded in voice more pleasant
than her singing voice.
Alajor Trumbull was next called up
on. He arose and with his cornet
under his arm (he Is a member of the
band) prayed for a minute or two.
Commander Booth then called for n
solo front the bride. She quietly arose
nnd in a most musical voice sang with
taste part of a hymn to the air of
"Belle Mnhone."
The marriage ceremony wns simple.
The bridegroom stood on the right of
the commander and th" bride on the
left of Mrs. Booth, who stood next to her
husband. The words were much the
snme uh in the ordinary lilual of the
church, but the word "obey" was
omitted. Finally the Rev. Boss Tay
lor went through the religious form and
thp "knot" was tied.
There was more jubilant singing, a
collection and the meeting ended.
