GOT MARRIED AND THEN STARTED CELEBRATION.

Boy Brouhard, of Fair Oaks, Married At 12:16, Seat Up for Intoxication / At 2 O’clock. Married and in less than two hours sent to jail in a bad state of Intoxication, both marriage and sentence having been imposed by the same Justice of the Peace, is the remarkable record of Roy Brouhard, of Fair Oaks. Brouhard is commonly by the name of “Funny,” and asidq from his drinking proclivities is said to be a very good sort of a young fellow. He is 28 years of age and Wednesday came to Rensselaer in company with a young woman named Mary Elizabtth Sorensen for the purpose of getting married. They arrived in town at 11:06 and went at once to the county clerk’s office, where they procured a marriage license. At about 12:15 they wandered into the office of Squire Irwin, and were united in .the holy bonds of matrimony. The squire recognized the groom as a young man whom he had fined for intoxication here on 'the 4th of July, 1909, :.nd whom he had permitted to go with tho understanding that he was later to settle the fine and costs, which amounted to $9.85, but who had failed to make settlement. He decided not to say anything about the old score, hoping that the young man had reformed, and he tied the nuptial knot as securely as he knew how and felt rather well pleaded with the Job. He was much surprised, therefore, when at about 2 o’clock Marshal Mustard brought him back to the squire’s office in a bad state of intoxication. The marshal had found Brouhard and his bride on the Washington street bridge and tfce groom of less than two hours was behaving very badly, although the marshal does not say just what the young man was doing. He was visibly under the influence of liquor and admitted that he had drank a half pint of alcohol, which he had purchased on a doctor’s prescription after representing to the physician that he wanted to use it to burn in an alcohol lamp. The court decided to recommit him to serve out his previous fine and added a dollar and costs for the latest offense, which only brought the total up to $11.90. Brouhard was unable to stand the financial pressure after buying i marriage license, paying for the marriage ceremony and the half pint of alcohol, and was sent to Jail. There he cut upva lot of capers, which did not suit the other occupants of the bastile, four in number, and they held a summary court and sentenced him to be whipped and they thereupon carried the sentence into execution, giving him a lambasting with a strap. He was quieted with difficulty, but not until he had riddled his wedding suit. The disappointed bride went on her wedding trip alone, returning to Fair Oaks, where she has a two-year-old child, said to be the prbgeny of the man who became her husband at this rather belated period.

Brohard’s father, George Brouhard, came from Fair Oaks this Thursday morning and staid the settlement of the fine for his son, thus securing his release and he rejoined his bride there this afternoon. , Our stock -bf spring Oxfords for men consists of gun metals, patents and tans in button and lace, in all the new lasts. We are especially prepared with the raised toe and high heel lasts which are in vogue this teason. Fendlg’s Exclusive Shoe Store, Opera House Block.

Saturday Night Wrestling Match Should Be Best Ever.

The wrestling match to take place at the Ellis Theatre Saturday night will be the first contest ever held here between two wrestlers of note where the match was conducted on a finish basis, best two falls In three. The contestants are to be Tom Coburn, who failed to throw Polos last week, and who weighs 185 pounds, and “pilly” Edwards, whose weight is 200 pounds and who is said to be one of the big men in the game. So interesting was the Coburn match with POIO3 and so excellently did Coburn handle himself that the big audience that witnessed that match will be anxious to see him meet a heavier opponent in a straight fall match. The prices for this contest remain the same, and Manager Ellis is already receiving many orders for tickets. Coburn wilt have a rather busy week wrestling. On Wednesday night he wrestled Charley Olsen at Crawfordsville and Friday night he meets Martin Lewis, of Chicago, at Lafayette. His week will conclude with the match here Saturday night. Coburn made many friends here by his sportsmanlike conduct while in Rensselaer and gave the Impression that he is a clean athlete. His manager, Jerry Walls, also gave the same impression and they resorted to no deceits. Polos will meet Fred'Bell, a Logansport wrestler, at Remington Saturday night and the match there promises to attract a large crowd. It is probable that arrangements will be made for a match between Coburn and Polos to take place in Rensselaer at a later date.

It seems certain that the match here and also the one in Remington will attract big houses Saturday night
