They Mount n Tandem and Hunt t'p a Judge W ho 3Ink.CM Them One In 11 Very Pew Minutes— Everybody Pleased. One of the most romantic marriages that ever took place in Topeka occurred In the office of Probate Judge Dolman, and Miss Ethel Emma Lundgreeu be came Mrs. Ramond C. Perine. Ray Perine, says ttie Topeka Journal, lives with his parents at the corner of Eighth and Quincy streets. He is a machinist, and for some time has been employed in the bicycle store anil fac tory owned by L. B. Wynian and C. A. Dean, on West Eighth street. The young man has been quite attentive to Miss Lund green, who lives with her parents at the corner of First and Bu chanan streets. Perine has been teased considerably, and not long ago some of his friends reported that the couple were to be married on the tenth of the month. The men were busy in the shop about the middle of the forenoon when Wy man stopped and looked up from his work. "I say, Ray," said he, good-naturedly, "this is the tenth, and you were to be married to-day, 1 thought." "That's right," said Perine, laugh ingly. "Well, why don't you do it?" inter posed Dean, who had also stopped his work. "I tell you what \ will do," said Perine. "If you folks will pay the expenses, 1 will get married." "Agreed," said both men. Ray Perine, the expectant groom, was iu his working clothes, but he took hold of one of the tandems in the store, and, signaling his employers to follow, he took the wheel into the street. The two men took another and followed. The party went straight to the Lund green home. Young Perine knocked at the door, and his knock was answered by Ethel "I HAVE COME TO GET MARRIED.' "I have come to get married," said he. abruptly. "Wait till I see mamma," said the young lady. She darted into the kitchen and soon returned with the information that \\ would be all right. She then went lip stairs to change her attire. Perine then thought of himself. Ilis clothes were greasy, and his bands cov ered with grime, lie saw the brother of Ethel and luid tlie matter before him. Young Lundgreeu informed his pros pective brother-in-law that Claus Oak. a relative, had a bicycle suit in the house that would lit him. The clothes were brought out, and Perine soon had them on. lie made a very good appearance in knickerbock ers with a black sweater and a cc;X of light material. Miss Ethel appeared soon after. She was dressed becomingly in a silk shirt waist and a black skirt. She wore a thin veil and a jaunty walking hat. The party, increased by one, then left the house on their tandems, A sis ter of the bride and a brother followed in n buggy. At the office of the probate judge they were told that Judge Dolman was not in, but would arrive in a few min utes. They waited half an hour, and were about to leave to go to theofficeof a justice of the peace when Judge Dol man came, and the ceremony was per formed without delay. The bride is a pretty young lady, slight and graceful. She is 18 years old. Mr. Wyraan, who, with his partner, paid the expenses of the marriage, said: "We made Ray the offer and he ac cepted. I did not think at the time lie would do so, but after I had made the offer I did not want to back out." Mr. Perine and his bride rode home 011 the tandem. He said they would soon gc to housekeeping in a cottage on Bu chanan street. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The fac- /) $1.50 PER YEAR.
