The young man was roughly handled by ‘riends =f the bride-elect, and then was car- fed to & patrol box, from which the police 00% him to the West Chicago avenue sta- Wion, to save him from further injury. Stanislaus Grochela, 83 Huron street, was he lover of uncertain mind. He became ac- ljuainted with Anna Sasok, 19 years old, a ‘enr ago at 354 North Carpenter street, her idence. He won her consent to the mar- dage thres months ago, the young woman ¥, and insisted that she set an early flate for the ceremony.

Grochela was silent for a moment, then urhing from the girl and addressing the pthers, he said: “Perhaps I might as well have stayed Lway.

The four were miting on the front steps when some ome proposed immediate mar- riage. An agreement was reached and the two men gave orders that the tamily surrey be hitched. Into this they climbed and leit in mearch of two discreet friends. Then they called on a minister, who was a friend of the family, and toid him of their desite. Both couples were married at once, and then joining hands they heard the minister pro- nounce the benediction. Agaln in the surrey they drove home, ar- riving before the unsuspecting father.
