Last Wednesday evening the relatives and friends who had recetved cards of invitation to the wed- ding ot Miss Nelle H. Colton, a daughter of Hi. V. Colton, 434 H street northwest, and a young man of this city, upon going to the house were sur- Drised to find it dark and the members of the family were as much puzzled as the others, and they could only say that for wed- ding would not take piace. deen Prepared, the tabies set, and the minister, Rev- Dr. Faunce, engaged to perform the ceremony. All that the family knew was that the bride-elect had left town, leaving a note behind for her afl- anced, stating that she had changed her mind and Would be some hundred miles away when he re- ceived it, During the afternoon they had learned that De Peunce received by the hands of a colored boy a note “ Dear Dr.: The wed- ding ts off, and so am. Nellie H. Colton, B. and ¥. depot.” As she had eft nome about, I o'clock that day the supposition was that she had taken the 2 o'clock train for some Northern point. The note to her aMlanced was sent to him at once at his Place of business, reaching him arr Sh court fora license. He promptly disappeared trom. the city and has not since been seen by family or friends, who are anxious concerning his fate. MARRIED TO ANOTHER All Wednesday evening the family and immedi- ate friends were in suspense and in doubt as to what had caused the bride todisappear, but Thurs- day morning, about 8 o'clock, they received the following dispatch : “PBILADELPHLA, Dec. 28.—Married this eve. Send Neilie's trunk to’ —. “Your son, Wm. P. Vande- rite” ‘The biank in the jg filled by the name of a town some 75 or 100 miles from Philadelphia, and 1t was that thatgrould be the future home of couple, The ts recognized in ‘the name a young man who had had some cor- Tespondence ‘with Miss Nellie. It appears that during the inauguration of President Cleveland, in 1885, with some of the troops that come from Wil- mington, Del. was a handsome young plumber, of twenty-two Years of age, who, with two of his comrades, became acquainted With three young ladies here who were collecting buttons as sakes, Cards were exchanged, and in a short time three ladies here and three young men of Wilmington were affectionatel nding. ‘The Young men were known to the young ladies as their “coat-button beaus.” This correspondence Detween two of the ladies and two of the yo men soon but that between Miss Neille H. Colton and her “oat-button pean contiaued for rhaps a year. Then he candidly wrote her, a There had beon an exchange of photographs, that he could not think of marriage until he had be- come better able to support a wile, although he Has at bis regular work of gasfitting and piumb- ing, and he proposed to go West. Nothing more ‘Was heard from him, and the young lady sty that he was out West. ‘Then she came to the con- clusion tbat she had lost her “coat-button beat.” ‘SHE ACCEPTS ANOTURR, About ten or twelve months ago, deeming her- self free, she accepted the attentions of a young man engaged as clerk ina house not far from the Treasury The courtship pro; smoothly until all the arrangements bad made for the wedding last Wednesday even- ing. On Tuesday last the family was visited by a person who gave them some information as to the ffoom, which they ‘thought, had better be looked 0 before the knot was Ued, and inquiries were made by them. On Tuesday’ evening the groom expectant visited the bride and remained until about 9:30 o'clock. ‘The next morning it was noticed by some members of the family that the Dride-elect Was notin the happy mood supposed to be usual with brides on the morning of thelr wedding day. She remained quietly at home Guring the morning, “About 1 o'clock, she put on her hat and wraps ‘and started to a neighboring store to make some purchases. After some time had elapsed and she had not returned some of the family went to her room and there founda note on her table addressed to the prospective groom. ‘This stated that when he recetved it she would be many miles away, and gave as a reason for ber change of mind that she had received certain in- formation in reference to him which caused her to take this step. This note was at once sent to the groom, and about the same time the family learned that Rev. Dr. Faunce had recetved the note from the young lady, sent by a boy from the Baltimore and’ Potomac depot, reading, “Wedding 1s off and Soam L” With this’ knowledge the family of Mr. Colton, of course, closed the house to guests and ouers. HOW IT CAME ABOUT. It appears that a few weeks ago she received a letter from her “coat button beau,” and correspon- dence followed. Some of the family have an idea that this beau may have met her here. Yesterday morning the parents received a long letter froin the daughter stating that in the interview she had with the Washington on ‘Tuesday evening she saw that 1t would be better for her to take the course she had taken. Sue did not divulge what she had learned at that interview. | ‘She had then determi her course, and meeting her “coat button beau” they had gone to Camden, N.J., Where, ac the residence of Rev. Joun Z. bins, 508 Jd street, they were married and made happy. Se eS ‘The Orphans’ Christmas Tree.

M'LEAN'S LARGE PROPERTY INTERESTS IN THIS CITY. “I should judge,” said a real estate operator to a ‘Stan reporter, “from what I have seen in the newspapers that speculators in real estate are re- garded as public evils, While no doubt some tn- Stances might be cited which would seem to justify this unfavorable opinion of speculators, yet taken a8 a class there {8 no portion of a community that contributes so much to its advancement. The Speculators always precede the Work of sold tm- Provements, They run their streets out into the country and lay off farm lands into town lots long before the growth of population pushes the rest- dent away from the center of population, They tovest their money in thts property and they bring to bear all the force of their energy and pluck to hurry along the improvements, In this way street railway lines are laid, street improvements are mado, the town ts advertised, and It acquires the reputation being a” pushi ving piace, _, The | real estate Spectators, OF tie ones’ who do this’ pioneer Work, and give the ones’ thei, Fey go doubt, frequent. induce pos he m0 ple to invest Thete. money in such a Way that it is lost, DUC the good they do more than balances the evils You can see .the work of the real-estate speculators in all these numerous subdivisions outside the boundary lUnes of this city. They have lett city propery for other operations, and are now spreading themselves over the suburbs. Some ‘Of these subdivisions have already passed beyond the line of speculation, and are now being improved. ‘The city streets are Being continued for long dis- tances beyond Boundary street, and these tmprove- ments aremade by the speculators. In this Way the District 13 acquiring the title to large quantities of land which is devoted to streets, Afver a while, When the city actually bolls over its pres ent bow as it is sure to do, then if the District desires to buy the land needed for streets 1t would require large sums of money. The opening of the streets, and, in fact, all other im- provements, are thus pushed on in’ advance, and actually hasten the growth of the city by furnish- ing additional room for homes. The speculators may go too fast, but when they do the natural law of supply and demand checks them. If, however, tuere was no such thing as real estate speculation here this city would be much duller and slower ‘than It is at present, I like to say a good word for the real estate speculators, because it seems that 41s popular just now to abuse them. What is the Bopular aide Of a question is not always tne right A GOOD PLACE TO INVEST MONEY. Real estate dealers are recetving many inquiries about property irom people who are spending the winter season in this city. As they are here, and have the leisure, they seem to think that it would be as well to make themselves familiar with the Teal estate market. By spring the majority of ‘such tnquirers are anxious to place some of their money {a property here, and it is very frequently the case that, tn addition, they purchase w resi- dence for their own use. The accessions to the population made in this way are large, and as they are people of wealth and leisure they prove desir- able acquisitions, The opinion generally expressed by peopie Who come bere with any knowledge at all of the values age a ip ag sg oe wroperty 18 very cheap. ‘They say Fesidence sites cau be Obtained for Very reasonable figures, and that the cost of @ home is low com- pared with the expenditure required for a suntlar purpose In other cities of the country. In view of these facts it 1s not difficult wo understand the cause of the rapid growth of the population of the city. In other respects the attractions of this city as a place of residence have long been conceded. JOHN R, M’LEAN’S REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS. ‘The recent purchase by Mr, Jonn K.
