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.’

Honor to Him to Whom Honor is Olven*
The success of the Old Maid’s Con
vention last Friday night was large
due to the untiring efforts of Alder
man George W. Cotton, who was the
stage director. The bright young
man who wrote the article in Iggt
Tuesday s Ledger was ignorant of the
fact that Mr. Cotton was the director
and failed to give due credit. But
George is all right, therefore we
make the acknowledgement.
“Does your papa get much prao-

7-year-old eon. “Oh, he don’t have
