Matrimony in City Hall Circles.
Matrimony has been quite prevalent in city administration circles during the past few months and yesterday City Marshal Wheatman followed the precedent established by taking unto himself a bride in the person of Miss Mary Nelson, who has been his housekeeper for the past year or more. The ceremony was performed by Rev. K. W. Robbins and Mr. and Mrs. Wheatman departed on the noon train for a brief wedding journey. The event was celebrated so quietly that it was not known until after they had left town. We may now look to City Attorney Harmon and City Clerk Hughes to step to the front and complete the circle. Gentlemen, choose your partners!
