Carelessness in addressing a letter led to the discovery of a plot to rob a Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern express train tonight. A letter was received by Mrs. Christ, proprietor of the Orchard City Hotel of Burlington, that was evidently not intended for her eres, The missive had no date or superscription and was as follows: “There will be $16,000 on train No. 2, Bur- lington, Cedar Rapids and Northern railroad next Wednesday night. I will be on the train. South of Columbus Junction is a good place to take it. Grady, the expressman, is scared as a rabbit. If you know of any one who will help let him stop the train by swinging a lantern across the track. Guauam.” ‘The letter was at once turned over to the au- thoritics, who are inclined to look upon the matter in a serious light, but as a great deal of talk has been indulged in by the landlady and others it is, thought the robbers have been warned.

Wedding Bells That Bang Merrily Today. FOUR INTERESTING EVENTS. The Lane-McCartney Nuptisis Last Night— The O’Toole-Lenthan, O’Neill-Rabbitt and ‘Tapplin-Harris Weddings Today—Other So- cial Events. The marriage of Miss Ella Louise Macartney and Dr. Francis Ransom Lane was clearly an occasion of great interest to their wide circle of ,acquaintances, judging | from the large audience which not only filled the auditorium of the New York Avenue Church last night, but also the galleries and vestibules. ‘The de- lightful temperature added the last perfect touch to all the arrangements and made the stay in the charch while waiting for and then admiring the bridal party an event to be re- membered with genuine pleasure. The church was ribboned off and the pews in advance of the silken band were for the families and more intimate friends. The space about the read- ing desk and platform was given @ sylvan touch by the graceful towering of a number of large pals, and the kneeling stools in the center where the couple bent low to receive the minister's blessing were so garlanded in smilax that the frame could not be seen. A cluster of the bride's flower, La France roses, asa symbol of her coming, tied the two stools together. The ushers, Mr. George Prevost, Mr. Tileston Chambers, Mr. Vietor Kauffmann and Mr. Ray- mond Frey, provided eligible seats for all comers, and like the groomsmen, the lappels of their dress coats were adorned with a single Catherine Mermet rosebud and its foliage. Prof. Bischoff entertained the audience dur- ingthe wait by softly playing the “Spring Song,” and that sweet-toned anthem, “The Voice That Breathed O’er Eden.” When the bridal party had all arrived the Lohengrin march, in a rich burst of familiar melody, filled the church. Every head was turned to watch the procession down the aisle to the platform, infront of which stood Dr. Bartlett. The ushers led the way, followed ‘by the grooms- men, two more couples, Mr. Chas. Edward Rice, Mr. Frank W. Vangh, jr. Mr. Wm. Kirk- patrick “Mearnst and Mr.’ Frank Ree- side. Then in dainty gowns of crepe aad chiffon walked the four bridesmaids, Mise Kauffmann, Miss Chambers, Miss Fracker and Mins Macartney. The gowns of the first two were cut rounded at the neck and had short sleeves. These young ladies had pink ribbons caught in their brown hair and tied in coqnetiixh bows in front. The other two bridesmaids had high-necked waists to their dressew and loose full sleeves of crepe. They had each a pink rosebud in their hair. Each carried a large bouquet cf Catherine Mermet roses, the long stem: tied with pink ribbons, In advance of the bride walked her two youthful attendants, Master Laurance Cham- bers, u mauly little fellow, dressed in white flannel, and tiuy Mise Kate Macartne embroidered muslin frock, the short’ slee tied with bow knots of pink,ribbon and a pink ribbon sash encircled her waist. She carried a basket, like her escort, filled with jessamine blossoms and roses. The bride came in the church escorted by her brother, Mr. John W. Macartney, who gave her into the groom's keeping when they reached the waiting minister. Mr. Jack Chickering stocd up with the groom, Mr. Macartney stand- ing at the bride's left hand and giving her in murtiage. During the service, which was by the Episecpal iorm, the responses of the cou- | ple could be heard distinctly all over the | church. At its conclusion admiring eyes closely followed the newly married coupls as they siowly came up the aisle, tke groom smilingl) ant and the bride's blushes and down- es waking her all the more attractiv ‘The bride's gown was an elegant robe of white duchess satin, made in the gracefal si icity of the princess style. Across the hem of thé shirt was a deep fall of old Venetian point lace, festooned. The bodice was cut out at the, neck and had a frill of the lace falling over it. ‘The sleeves were puffed Ligh at the shoulder and fitted the arm closely. She wore pearl or- naments and earried a large bunch of La France rores. Her all-enveloping veil of tulle was inned with pearl pins and a single pink rose- bad formed s becoming ornament ou her wavy black hair. After the ceremony a brilliant reception was held at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Jno. Macartney, 1712 Connecticut avenue. ‘The rooms were decorated with June flowers, with palms and ferns, and Dr. Lane and his bride stood to receive congratulations in the bowered recess of the bay window, where a background and surroundings of rich’ greens brought out the interesting beauty of the bride and her be- coming bridal finery all the clearer. ‘A wedding supper was served and at the be- ginning of it the bride cut the bride's cake, where a token foreach lay hidden. The ex- citing suspense until she found her Inck made ‘There was @ diamond ring for the next bride, a thimble for the spinster, a } gold four-leaved clover for luck in any estate and a shilling piece to signify that its recipient would always have the golden store. fuce of this coin was engraved 1891 and on the other wide was the significant advico, “Go, thou and do likewise.” Mrs. Jno. Macartney wore a becoming gown of white crepe and chiffon. The bride's mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Macartney, wore black silk and thread lace. These ladies were avsisted in re- ceiving by Mre. Arnold, Mrs. Chambers, Mrs, Denickson of Philadelphia and Mra. Wilkinson. ‘The bride's presents were numerous ad val- unable. Dr. and Mrs. Lane will sail from New York for Havre on Saturday on La Bretagne. ‘They will be abroad nearly three months, and upon their return will begin housekeeping on Q street. Among those present at the wedding recep- tion were Mr. aud Mra, Seymour aud Miss La- mond of New York, Mr. and Mrs. Derrickson of Philadelphia, Dr. and Mrs. Hamlin, Dr. and Mra.

The high altar was tastefully decorated with large palms and fall foliage plants. “Numbers of tapers wero burning in the shining gilt caudelabras, and a deep tall of gold ince fell from the altar table. ‘The midday sun added another brillianey to the scene, no less affecting, and the small bridal party when grouped’ about the sltar completed the picture. ‘here were only two ushers, Lieut.

It is the Business and Not the Vehicle That is Taxed. “Some days ago Mr. John Pope Hodnett, as attorney for all users and owners of hand carts in the District of Columbia, filed an argument with the Commissioners against the tax on band carts, which he claimed was illegal and having been paid should be refunded. The matter was referred to the attorney for the District, who reported that the act of June 20, 1872, which authorized this class of licenses, was repealed by Congress July 12, 1876, and that no authority now exists for that purpose. Assessor Trimble was then called upon for = report as to what law his office now acts under in this respect. In replying to the Commissioners Mr. Trim- Die mare that his office wand has been aware since its that the law imposing a tax on carte! wagens, be. wes repesiad Uy act. of Congress July 12, 1876. During the year end- ing July 12, 1876, nearly 3,000 vehicles were licensed, and since the not a single dol- lar has been collected by the District of Colum- bia on the class of vehicles mentioned, and in conformity with existing law. " Under the old law, says Mr. Trimble, all bay and’ delivery wagons, furniture vans and drays, dump carts and hand or push carte were required to be licensed, and their | licenses were numbered to correspond with numbers painted on tin and attached to the vehicle. No numbers are now issued except to hackmen. Mr. Trimble says that it has not been shown that the law imposing a tax on band carts, &c. ‘thas been repealed. It is the business, he poiuts out, that is licensed and not the means by which it is carried on. A statement of the amou lected from this class since 1980 is appended to Mr. ‘Trimble's reply and shows that ‘$66,596.86 has been collected for this purpose since that date. The assessor's statement was submitted to the attorney for another opinion on the facts furnished.
