Hardware Co. Mr. Sam Hopper, .Jr., and MUrt May ilarrli, Married Wedueaday MK>>t l>y Itev. A. C. CTee Ceremony \VltueH»ed l.y Only a Few Clone FriemM. Wednesday night at the home of Dr. S. B. Crawley, on corner of Jeffer ies and Johnson streets, Mr. Samuel Hopper, Jr., and Miss May Harris were joined in happy marriage by lev. A. C. Cree, pastor of the First Taptist church. The ceremony was to have been performed in the Baptist church im mediately after prayer-meeting; but in some way the news of the coming event reached the ears of some of the congregation and these lingered after the service was over in hopes of wit nessing the marriage of the youthful overs, who were not desirous of giv- ng too much publicity to their nup tials. While it was not strictly a ‘runaway match,” there was a suffi cient tinge of romance connected with the affair to lend spice and vari ety to the news, and as it had been so long since anything of alike na ture had taken place in the city be- dre, some of our people were hungry or something out of the ordinary, and a wedding especially. When it was found that those who ingered at the church were bent upon remaining to witness the wed ding of the popular young couple, it was decided by the small wedding party, wno were in waiting outside of ;he church, to repair to Dr. Crawley’s residence, where Mr. Cree is board- ng. There the young lovers of sev eral years were made husband and wife in the presence of a select few of their most intimate friends. The groom is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. S. L. Hopper, of this city, and a young man of fine char acter and high social standing. There is not a more popular young man in the city, nor one who pos sesses more friends, than Bam. He is a genial, warm-hearted, whole- souled young man, full of innocent fun, though possessing manly habits and sterling qualities. For a num ber of years he has been an attachee of The Ledger office and holds a high place in the esteem of his employer and in the affections of his fellow compositors. The bride is the youngest daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Harris, also of this city, and one of Gaffney’s most worthy, highly esteemed and deeply admired young ladies. She is a modest, maidenly, unassuming young lady who numbers her friends by Ihe score and who possesses that rare faculty of making friends of everyone with whom she comes in contact. Nature has bestowed upon her many personal attractions and the sweet and gentle characteristics of her heart and mind are no less charming than the natural grace and loveliness of her outer self. She will brighten and adorn the home of the young husband who has chosen her for his life companion, and he is to be congratulated upon winning so fair a bride. These young lovers are now stand ing where all is bright and full of sunshine, and love gilds the way be fore them with rosy t'ntlngs of hap piness. No cloud hangs over their sky and to their eyes the future Is painted in the most glowing colors. May they realize their sweetest dreams and their lives be one long song of peace, happiness and con tentment Is the dearest wish of their admiring friends, and one in which The Ledger especially delights to join. A VALUABLE MEDICINE “Tbre«* Married Men" at tlie Opera lloime Next Monday Evening. There will doubtless be more than three married men at the opera house next Monday evening to witness the farce comedy of “Three Married Men.” Of the company the Ashe ville Gazette of the IGth inst., says: “At the Grand opera house last evening the Vivian De Monto com pany presented what well deserves to be called a tip too performance at popular prices. The bill was pure vaudeville with farce-comedy, ‘Three Married Men,’ as an afterpiece. The house was packed, and the perform ance had the hearty approval of the audience throughout. Several of the vaudeville features were especially attractive. May Ken nedy’s ‘illustrated ^songs,’ Nellie La.Mott’s cabinet act, Jack Mozart’s sleight of hand work, and Beatrice, in her serpentine dance were all en joyable, the first named being, per haps, the best liked by the audience. There will be a change of bill this evening, with‘Dollars versus Kisses’ as an afterpiece.” The Asheville Citizen of the Ifith inst. also says: “Vivian de Monto’s four-night en gagement opened at the Grand last evening to a full house. The lower floor was completely filled and up stairs comfortably so. The per formance consisted of vaudeville of good, substantial variety. The sleight of hand work was as good as given in higher priced shows which travel only for that. Tha black-face come dian, A. J. VVayr.e, was called back three times for his clever turn. Miss De Monto sang a number of selections and pleased the audience, judging by repeated encores. The performance closed with the afterpiece, ‘Three Married Men.’ The entire audience was kept roaring throughout. It is a light comedy, but the parts were taken to the liking of the audience. Illustrated songs and serpeirtine dances were included.” The Bristol, Tenn., paper says: “The Vivian DeMonto company was the attraction at the Harmeling opera house lust night. The show is purely a vaudeville attraction. The instrumental music by Mr. Clark and bis wife was winsome and was appreciated. The work of A. J. Wayne, the comedian, pleaMd the audience and kept them langhing The serpentine dance, with steriopti- con and calcium effects, and the 11 lustrated songs—words and music by Chas. K. Harris, were especially good. The Illustrated songs included, ‘I’ve a Longing in ray Heart for you, Louise,’ and ‘What is Home With out Love,’ and the scenes pictured were so true to human life, and so closely allied to 'other days’ in the sweet by-gone of every one’s career as to recall the sqsred recollections of early days, when love was young and hopes ran high. The perform ance closed with a real live farce en titled, ‘3 Married Men.’ Advertisements under this head will be Inserted for one cent a word each Inser tion.

But George is all right, therefore we make the acknowledgement. “Does your papa get much prao- tlce?” asked the visitor of the doctor’s 7-year-old eon. “Oh, he don’t have to practice any more.
