lOYEl) AN AGED WIDOW,
A Boy of Seventeen Wedded to a Woman Old Enough to be His Mother. TROY, N. Y., September 15.—There
was a notable wedding at SI Second avenue, Lansingburg, last evening. The contracting parties were Virgil Martin,
ID 17 and Fannie Ward, a widow of 49. The groom is a son of the Rev. Judson W. Martin, a Baptist clergyman. Mrs. Ward owns considerable property left her by her first husband, the inventor of the Ward fire hydrant. News of the marriage spread quickly and the event proved a great attraction. From the time of its occurrence until long into the night the house was surrounded by several hundred people, who gave the couple a serenade. The instruments used were fish horns, tin pans, and drums of all sorts and sizes. The din was terrific, but the neighbors found no fault. The doings of the pair have for some time been the topic of much unfavorable comment, and it is probable they will deem it advisable to remove from their present home. Mrs. Martin purchased a very elaborate outfit for her husband.

THE TERRE HAtfTiC EXPRESS, SUNDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 16,1888.
OBITUARY.
William H. Scudder, whose death as having occurred early yesterday morning, was announced in THE EXPRESS, was a most popular citizen and business man. He was born at Princeton, N. J., October 28,1829. He came to Terre Haute on August 12,1854, from Maysville, Ky., and lived here continuously ever since, an honored and respected citizen. He began in a small way in J. D. Early's new block with his brother-in-law, W. H. Robbins, as a manufacturer in the bakery and candy business, and finally opened as a wholesale and retail dealer and did a large business. For years he conducted a fine ice cream parlor and confectionery on Main street between Sixth and Seventh. He was one of the pioneers in the confectionery business in Terre Haute. He was elected to the city council twice from the First ward—in 1869 and again in 1877. For a number of years be was a trustee and treasurer of the Central Presbyterian Church. Mr. Scudder was elected a trustee of the city schools over three years ago and was a painstaking and conscientious member. A year ago he made the race for city clerk, but was defeated by Mr. Duddleston. The board of school trustees, of which he was secretary, met yesterday, when the following was adopted:
This board loses In the death of Wm. H. Scudder a faithful and painstaking trustee. We, hereby, testify to his efficient services for a period of time extending over three years. His relations with U9 have been of the most pleasant character, and his policy toward the schools liberal and marked by earnest tfforts for their constant Improvement.
We, hereby, extend to the family our sympathy In their great bereavement, and the clerk is directed to furnish a copy of this minute for publication
N. BOLAND, President Jos. RICHARDSON, Treasurer. WM. EL WLLET, Superintendent.
The teachers of the public schools mat in regular monthly session with a full attendance. Superintendent Wiley announced the death of Mr. Scudder, secretary of the board of trustees, and appointed a committee which made the following report:
It is with great sorrow that we learn of the death of Mr. Wm. H. Scudder, the secretary ot the board of trustees of the public schools of this city. Mr. Scudder has been officially connected with our schools for more three years, and he has always shown by his acts that he was In full sympathy with the teachers and with a liberal school policy. Ills interest in all the plans for increasing the efficiency of the schools appeared to be personal as well as official, and he never seemed to sight of his responsibility for tlielr success, which was shown by his private conversation as well as by his public acts. "We, the teachers of the city schools assembled in rogular monthly meeting, hereby express our sympathy, with the family in their bereavement, and, as a mark of respect, recommend that this meeting be adjourned. W. W. BYERS,
A. L. WTETH, ANNIE THOMAS.
The old volunteer fire companies are called to meet to day as will be seen by a notice elsewhere.
The Ringgold band of which Mr. Scudder was an honorary member, made a request that they be allowed to play at his funeral to-day. They will play at the house and the cemetery.
The funeral services will be held at the residence on Cherry street at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
WILD STEERS IN NEW YORK.
They Muss Up a Policeman and Several Other People. NEW YORK, September 15.—Four wild
steers escaped from the Union Stock yards this morning, and created the wildest sort of a stampede. The police aggravated the confusion and danger by constantly firing their revolvers at the fleeing animals. One steer turned on an officer who had shot it in the flank, gored him and tossed him over a fence. Another steer gored a young boy and trampled on him until the little fellow became unconscious. Many othsr persons were knocked down by the runaway brutes. At the Harlam river one steer was shot dead. Another was killed by a volley from the revolvers of four police in ambush. The injured people were sent to a hospital.

These be days that suggest the coming of that most delightful season of the year, Autumn. All about us are the signs—the rustling of the falling leaves, the garnered fruits and grains and the cool evenings when fires are pleasant. The weather also suggests that man should be more warmly clad and following tbis suggestion he should visit Fred Freers, the merchant tailor, where he will be shown the latest patterns in plaids, worsteds and diagonals. The very lutest patterns are there shown and you may be sure of a well fitting suit if you leave your order with Fred.
