Cupid Will Have to Hustle.

It was thought last October that Dau Cupid and his understudy and speoial matrimonial agent, Hymen, broke the record here when five prominent young Rensselaer couples were married, all in a string, and two of them in one day. But this year’s October weddings will break last October’s record and set a new mark' Counting the one that has already taken place there will be at least 6 prominent couples married here, this month and what is more unusual, three of these happy affairs will be on one and the same day, namely next Wednesday Oct. 16th. They are Oren F. Parker and Miss Della Harris; Mr. C. E. Duvall and Miss Leona Biggs; Mr. Jay Stockton and Miss Stella Perkins. Furthermore, on this same day, Mr. B. S. Fendig, of our oity, will be married at New Orleans, to Miss Rosye Oppenheimer. The marriage of Mr. Eugene Fritts and Miss Blanche Alter will take place on the 22nd.
