MARRIES
Aged
Merchant Takes Do
mestic of 22 as Bride.
SAYS IT'S NOBODY'S BUSINESS
Bridegroom Declares That Two Mem
bers of His Family Who Objeot to
Marriage Only Show Their In
gratitude Daughter Says
He Is Perfectly Sane.
Philadelphia, Aug. 29. John Schoen
herr, seventy-three years old, woolen
merchant of this city, who Saturday
married Miss Julia Klelnbach, twenty
two years old, a nurse In his homo,
declared that his inurrlage concerned
nobody but himself and his bride and
that the objections of his son and
daughter were a mark of the highest
ingratitude. He desired at flrst to
keep his wedding a secret and pledged
the Wilmington magistrate who Issued
the license and the minister who tied
the knot to keep the secret for him.
Through the public record of the Wil
mington county court, however, It be
came known that the two who went to
Magistrate Gluckman's ofllco Satur
day and from there to the home of the
Rev. George L. Wolfe were Mr.
Schoenhcrr and Miss Klelnbach.
"I am the man that did It," Mr.
Schoenherr said In the home of his
daughter. "I am John Schoenhcrr. I
married a respectable youn lady, and
I am proud of It. It is nobody's busi
ness but my own, and I don't wunt
any Interference.
"I don't care what they write," he
paid. "It don't make any difference to
mo. I know what I am doing, and
that Is proved by the fact that only
two members of my family object to
my marrlnge. They have no right to
object. Every one of my children
lives In a house which I gave them,
and their actions show their Ingrati
tude. "I am a thorough business man, and
my reputation Is good. I have lived
long enough in this country to become
a good citizen, and when soldiers were
wanted I enlisted while others hold
back That Is why I am receiving a
pension. I am well off and can tnke
care of myself."
"And he is perfectly sane too," Mrs.
Goslter chimed In. She turned to her
father and beckoned him Into the
house. Alio had talked enough, she
said. "
The marriage of the prosperous wool
en merchant has caused a stir In the
section In which he lives. Neighbors
have known his young wife only as a
domestic, they say, and were surprised
to learn that she had become head of
the hmisehnld. Little Is known of her
except that she came to the Schoen
herr home from the Interior of the
state about sixteen months ago.

35,000 AT BOOTH'S FUNERAL
Ceremony Is Deeply Impressive as
Massed Bands Play.
London, Aug. 2!). It Is estimated
that 35,000 persons gathered In Olym
pla to take pnrt In the memorial scrv
lves of the late General Booth.
The scenes In the vast building were
emotional to nn extraordinary degree.
It was probably the greatest funeral
service the world has known.
It was not a service of sorrow. There
was no black, no somber color. The
playing of the dead march In "Saul."
and the colIln, escorted by the oldest
soldiers of the army which General
Booth founded, were the only Indica
tions of death.
The chief Impression conveyed by
the proceedings was that of trium
phant though solemn rejoicing for the
life of a great religious leader.
Throughout the passage of the fu
neral procession, which occupied twen
ty minutes In passing up the arena,
massed bands played and replayed
the dead march. Then followed a
ong, emotional service, after which
everv Salvationist was invited to make
fresh consecration of his life nnd
penitents were exhorted to come to
the mercy seat.
Finally a hymn of triumph, with
bands blaring and tens of thousands
of voices singing, closed the ceremony,
which, though inartistic In details,
was yet deeply Impressive In Its vast
and strange appeal.
