AN ELABORATE WEDDING.
The Luthy-Whiteford Nuptials are pressively Celebrated at Peoria.
I in-
Peoria, 111., Herald: One of the prettiest and most elaborate weddings which has occurred in Peoria for some time was that of Miss Ella May Luthy to Robert Naylor Whiteford, celebrated last evening at the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Godfrey Luthy, 305 Wayne street.
The Episcopal service with the ring ceremony was used and three ministers participated in the wedding. Rev. M. M. Whiteford, of South Dakota, offered the opening prayer, and Rev. John Weston, of this city, paBtor of Calvary Presbyterian church, pronounced the wedding service. Rev. Samuel Moore, of the Second Presbyterian church, gave the benediction. The exercises were much more elaborate than such services ordinarily are and were the more deeply impressive on this account.
The wedding procession started promptly at 8 o'clock, slowly approaching the canopy of Easter lilies to the strains of Mendelssohn's beautiful march, played by Mrs. Wookey. The bride was given away by her father, and was attended by her bridesmaid, Miss Alice Sloats, of Elm wood. Mr. G. Kleen acted as best man. Miss Luthy was handsomely attired in a dress of white mousseline de Bote and carried EaBter lilies. The bridesmaid was dressed in white and pink and carried pink carnations.
The decorations in the house, and particularly in the room in which the wedding ceremony was performed, were exceedingly pretty. Following the wedding an elaborate banquet was served in the dining room and this apartment
waB
also very prettily deco
rated. Between thirty-five and forty guests were present, all of them being relatives of the contracting parties.
Both of the young people are well known in this city. Miss Luthy is one of the most popular young women in Peoria and has hosts of friends here who extend their best wiBhes for her future happiness. The groom is one of the instructors in the high school and during his residence in this city has made for himself an enviable reputation as an educator. Mr. and Mrs, Whiteford left late last evening for Chicago and other points and will be gone until the middle of April. Upon their return they will be at home to their friends at 307 Ravine avenue.
George is Mistaken For alBurglar.
Indianapolis Sentinel: A few weeks ago the -residence of John Lane, 432 nort West street, was entered by bur glars and since that time he has been on the watch for a return of the thieves. Last night he closed his drug store at Indianapolis avenue and California Btreet, and weat home about 11 o'clock. When he entered the house he saw a strange man, and without stopping to make an investigation took a shot at him. The bullet Btruck the stranger, who proved to be George Bailey, of Crawfordsville, in the hand. Explanations were in order and then Mr. Lane discovered that he had shot a guest of his house. Mr. Bailey arrived yesterday afternoon on a visit to a boarder in the Lane house. Last night he went to the theater, returning to the house a few minuteB before Mr. Lane did, and the latter not knowing that he was there and supposing he was a burglar, fired the Bhot. Mr. Bailey is not badly injured.

THE DATE IS SET.
The Crawfordsville Btreet Pair Will lie Held the Second Week In October.
The business men's meeting Monday evening at the small court oom to decide upon a date for t}ie street fair was well attended and the interest was good. The executive ommittee recommended the second week in October and their report waa adopted. The dates will accordingly be Oat. 9 to 14 inclusive, six days and nights. This was thought to ba the best week for the fair as there are no county fairs in this neighborhood to prove counter attractions, and the first week in the month will be devoted to advertising the street fair. Twenty thousand envelopes appropriately inscribed were ordered printed and will be furnished merchants and others who desire to use them at,the actual cost of getting them out. This was a good feature last year and the work will be begun early this year. Everybody should now get down to work and lose no opportunity to advertise the attraction for all it is worth.

It is the in tention to get together at least six companies of state militia, together with several batteries of artillery to take part in the sham battle.

STATE GETS DUMPED.
The Government Will Not Pay for Soldiers' Uniforms.
Governor Mount, Adjt.-Gen. Gore and Quartermaster Richardson Monday consulted with Gen. KcKee upon a new and serious proposition that confronts the state. Gen. Richardson has just returned from Washington, where he learned from the war department that the federal government will not pay the state for the clothing of the Indiana troops in the Spanish war, it taking the position that the clothing belonged to the government and therefore was but returned by the state. The government only furnished the cloth and the state paid for the making of the uniforms. But the government's position is final and therefore the state will lose this sum, amounting to upward of $40,000.
Not only does the state lose this,' but the legislature had already appropriated $40,000 to pay the soldiers for these uniforms, which the government charged to them and the question now is whether this must be paid the soldiers in view of the fact that the appropriation was made with the understanding that the government was to allow the state for the uniforms. The attorney-general will be aBked to try to relieve the state from paying the money to the soldiers.
Governor Mount said yesterday that as the government owed the state $40,000 as its Bhare of the national guard fund, which Bum would be available July 1, this sum, with the $45,000 appropriated by the legislature under the old law would enable the Btate to equip two regiments and three batteries this year. Three companies have already been accepted. These are at Lafayette, Frankfort and Terre Haute. The soldiers in the field who were in the guard will be preferred for places in the new guard with these three exceptions.
The government has also informed the state that tents will not be returned to the state, kind for kind, but the Btate must purchase from the government new tents. The government will furnish ordnance, which, it is thought, will include haversacks, Bide arms, etc. All camp equippage and uniforms must be furnished by the state. Unless the Btate can get out of paying the 840,000 appropriated for the uniforms of the soldiers which ia to be refunded to them, it will be paying for the old uniforms twice.
A New Temple.
About thirty of the RathboneSisters of this city went to Ladoga last Monday to institute a new temple of the order.
