THE WEDDING A SURPRISE.
Bride and Groom Went Away to Visit
Relatives of the former, but Jour
neyed on to Jersey.
Local society circles ore once more
stirred up. Not by a scandal, but by nn
"tratxpected wedding. The principals in
the sensation RrB Miss Minnie Guldin,
daughter o the CoranTeVBifti Jiatel pro
prietor, and Mr. Fred. Dodd, a young man
of Lewes, Delaware.
The marriage was a secret to nil but the
principals until last night. Even the
bride's parents had no intimation ol it
until that time. Miss Guldin and Mr.
Dodd first met last October in the place
where the groom's home is located. His
father i a merchant then. About twe
weeks ago Mr. Dodd enme here and re
mained a guest at the hotel. Last Thurs
day he and Miss Guldin left by train for
Pottsville, ostensibly to visit some of
Miss Guldin's relatives. Nothing un
usual was suspected. Even when Miss
Guldin failed to write and say she had
reached her destination no suspicions were
aroused, as the blizzard had set in. Every
thing seomed to help along the secrecy of
the affair.
Last night the young lady returned to
the hotel. Not as Miss Guldin, however,
but as Mrs. Fred. Dodd. Mr. and Mis.
Guldin took the situation philosophically.
After the shock of the surprise passed off
the usual forgiveness, blessings, etc.,
followed and everybody seemed happy.
The bride and groom are domiciled at the
hotel. They say they were married in
Camden, N. J.
The announcement of this wedding will
occasion surprise fnjpther parts of the
county, especially in Pottsville, where the
bride recently resided with her parents.
She is a good looking young woman of
nineteen years and is very prominent in
amateur theatrical circles. She attaiued
some success as "the "Drnmmor Boy" in
the benefit productions of "The Drum
mer Boy of Shlloh" in Pottsville
and this town a tew years, ago and last
December appeared in a Topsy character
in comedy at Robbins' opera house in this
town for the benefit of the Protestant
Episcopal Church.

'. Criminal NeglectT
Ai Polander named William Rice was
terribly injured at the Oak Hill colliery,
neat Pottsville.yesterday morning. While
ho was digging lco in u ditch in the mine
hia pick struck a piece of dualln and the
explosion that followed blew out lili left
eye and lacerated his face in n terrible
manner. The victim was sent to this
town on the 12:35 p. m. Pennsylvania train
yesterday, enroute for the Miners' Hospi
tal at Fountain Springs, and a worse case
of criminal neglect can hardly be im
agined. The unfortunate man had ap
parently received no attendance. His left
eye hunt; upon his cheek, none of his
wounds were bandaged and the coverings
upon him were so light that he suffered
intensely from the cold. The Lehigh
depot officials summoned Dr. Hamilton
and he did whut he could to help the
sufferer.
The Theatre.

pany opened a week's engaKement at
Ferguson's theatre last night before a

the "Gold King" was a very creditable
piece of work and Miss Lizzie Seymour
and Ned Cnrtls afforded considerable
amusemeut in comedy roles. The com
pany carries with it an orchestra that
mates tho intermissions between the acts
pass very pleasantly, and on the whole the
entertainment is the best given by any
company at popiilar prices for many
years. To-night a laughable comedy
entitled "Golden Ridge" will be produced
Roach Won.
The foot race between Roach, of Glrard
vllle, and Griffith, of Ashland, took place

town, the referee.

the feverishness, the shortness of breath,
and do not dismiss them as symptoms of
a cold which children arr supposed to
have as a matter of course. Now, if

office to the outer nir. Keep the system
well nourished against attacks, so that
it can throw off promptly what will if
suffered to remain in it invito the de
stroyer. Alarm spreads at the mention
of an epidemic disease, but the epidemic
is rare which carries off so many person
in the course of a year as does the
neglected cold. Usually it is only when
too late that people learn how little
neglect may be fatal. Herein is a pitiful
misfortune of the poor, that they are not
only without proper clothing for such
weather as this, without proper food to
fortify the system, but without the means
to properly care for their sick when the
cold has done its worst. Look out for the
pneumonia now, remembering its insidi
ousness, and that it may develop when
least expected, irotn causes which may
not be traced.
Many people contend that the late
blizzard was not to be compared with that
of 1888. Others say it was worse. Care
ful thought leads most of those who had
a taste of both to say that the late un
pleasantness was the worst of the two.
In the first place, that lb88 was accom
panied by rain, which made the snow
heavy, while the flakes of Thursday
evening were light. True it is that the
railroads were blocked for several days in
1888, but then the companies were not
prepared for Buch an experience. It
taught them a lesson, and to day it will
take' a mighty severe blizzard to keep the
roads tied up for so long a period ns was
the case in 1888. The winter of '73 has
been also quoted as being a record-
Ijreaker, but the weight of argument is
against it, and we must concede the palm
to 'ys. iiev. donn uruuier, who has a
very good memory, says that in the many
ysars he has lived here this one was the
most severe. Ills experience in 1873, when
he officiated at the funeral of Mr. Aker,
reminded him of the fact that the winter
ot that year was no comparison to this.
The present' winter has been a remark
able one so far as sleighing goes, but it
does not equal the record of the winter of
1875 0, when we had good sltighing for
ninety days. The first sleighing this
winter was on Dec. 26th and it has con
tinued since that time, a total up to date
of forty-eight days.
