Nellie Stackhouse Married.
The following from the Indianapolis Sentinel of March 14th, will lie of ante rest to most of our readers, concerning, as it does, a gifted young lady who was born in Rensselaer and lived here the first 13 years of her life and where she still has some relatives and many friends and acquaintances: “A new writers’ alliance will f be formed here to-day in which two persons well known in literary- circles will join hands and hearts. At 10 o’clock this morning, at the residence of the bride’s brother, Henry M. Stackhouse, 21 Ketchum street, Miss Eleanor Stackhouse, of this city, and Mr. Frank Atkinson, of Chicago, will be united in marriage by the Rev. O. C. McCuHoefar—The wedding will be very private and the contracting parties will leave immediately for Chicago, where .they will reside. The wedding is quite a surprise to the many friends of Miss Stackhouse here, few of whom were aware of her return from abroad a week ago. Mr. Atkinson is well known in journalism throughout the West. He has been connected with, the Denver and Omaha papers as special correspondent, and has covered a large field in the way of miscellaneous writing. He is at present connected with the Omaha Bee , and resides in Chicago. Miss Stackhouse is an Indianapolis young lady, who is better known by her nom cfe plume , Norah Marks. Her first literary work was done on the Herald oi this city, and she has •mntrftmted to the Sentinel, Journal and Heirs. Among other papers she has been on the staff of the Shelbyville Democrat and the Sunday Leader, Lafayette. She accepted the editorship of Jhe Saturday Catl, Peoria, and left that paper to accept a position on the Chicago ~TriGiute . Here, under the nom dr plume Norah Marks, Miss Stackhouse won a high reputation in journalism. Her special articles covered every field, and she was an indefatigable writer. She has written up the Salvation Army of Chicago more successfully than any other writer, joining its ranks for a while, and later publishing an interesting book on the work. She has served the Tribune in the capacity of traveling correspondent, exchange editor and editor of a department of the Sunday edition. Last September Miss Stackhouse was sent to Ireland by Rand, McNally & Co., of Chicago, to collect material for a historical novel. She expected to remain abroad for a year, 3ut owing to throat trouble she went from Ireland to Rome. Her health continuing to fail. Miss Stackhouse decided to return home and finish ler novel on this side of the water. She arrived in Indianapolis last week, and will leave to-day as Mrs. Atkmson, followed by a host of good wishes, in which the Sentinel heartily joins them, .

Every grocerymau can appreciate the following from an exchanges Custom now demands a delivery wagon system with every grocery, and while it is of convenience to the customer, it is a great expense to the -grocer. -Often the system is abused, A lady came leisurely into a store with a bottle, saying, “Have you any real fresh yeast? Mamma wants a penny’s Worth. Pm,me put a new cork in tne boilic, ind deliver it right away—and please charge it.” The ReKSSvhuir StQ k Farm’s new and " i iideriuily high bred-and high priced 3 v»u;;g in rsc, from Ilighlawn Farm, Lee. Mass., arrived last Thursday, in excellent condition after his long railr. -a i journey. He is a very handsome, dark bay,: nearly two years old, .and in the..opinions of our many able local horsemen, shows “points” in keeping with his high breeding—than which there is probdue and commendiblc desire to do honor to their home town, the new owners of the horse have christened • him “Rens.'cl.ier Wilkes.” His registry number is not yet announced. A very noteworthy honor was done to Rensselaer and JaspeFCounty, last week ly the, appointment by the governor, of Mrs. E. P. Hammond, of this place, as a member of the Indiana World’s Fair Comissiou. Two members are appointed for each congressional district, or are supposed to be .at least, but the governor departed from that rule a little to make room for two commissioners at large, and thus It “happens that Mrs. Hammond is really the onjy member strictly from the Tenth district, the other member being Mr. Hailman, who lives in LaPorte. The commissioners have general supervision of Indiana’s exhibit., but the position is of more honor than profit, the members being paid only their neecssar}' expenses in attending meetings. There are only four ladies on the commission, including Mrs. Hammond. Free Course m Shorthand andr Typewriter by court reporter will be given a limited number for a little assistance.
