ODD WEDDINGS. ‘ks Who Have Been Joined Together in Wedlock. One Couple Married by Proxy While Thousands of Miles Apart—Some Queer Pranks of Cupid. The conventional {des of a wedding does not agree with the tastes of some people, and occasionally very eccentric and sometimes romantic’ marriage ceremonies are solempizetl, Men and women entirely opposite in disposition and character frequently unite in the holy bonds of matrimony—sometimes much to their mutual regret. This peculiar fact, {t would seem, also ap- piles to oddities of human nature. In many of the traveling shows the freaks who help to draw money from the pub: Mo intermarry, and it is not an unusual thing to find the fat man wedded tothe skeleton woman, and the tattooed man to the bearded lady. Mrs, Hannah Battersby, who at one time toured the country as a fat woman, was married to @ Pennsylvania man, and it is stated as a curious fact that no sooner were they married than she be- gan to lose flesh and he to gain it. His weight increased so rapidly that he soon took to exhibiting himself as a fat man. An exception to this rule of contrast, however, was Col. Glover, the giant, who stood six feet seven inches, He was wedded to Martha Peabody, the Amert- can giantess, Several years ago, when they appeared in public together, they to receive as much a6 $750 a week. The Italian consular gent at Cin- cinnati performed the most peculiar | marriage ceremony on record. The groom was a well-to-do resident of the Obto city and his bride lived in Italy. ‘The contracting parties were thousands of miles apart when the wedding waa performed, the marriage being by certificate, which he forwarded to au thorities in Italy, who in the presence of the parish priest exhibited {t before the bride, who affixed her signature, accepting It as her action, The mar- riage was perfectly binding. \ very similar ceremony was per- formed some time ago. The affair took place by proxy, and Miss Maple was married by a clergyman in New York to @ man who at the time of the marriage lay dying in a Texas town, The bride- room wag represented In the cere mony by the bride's cousin, who made the necessary responses and signatures as his proxy. ‘The two lovers had been engaged for @ long time, and Miss Maple wished to bear the name of her be trothed even though she could do so only as a widow The all-important ring is sometimes forgotten, and {np more than one case the door key of the church has had to do duty, but it 1s not often that portions of the marriage service are omitted. In a southern town, however, a little while ogo, after the pc rty had left the church it was discovered that the clergyman lad forgotten the words, “with this ring I thee wed,” ete, thus relieving the bridegroom of the most serious part of his obligntions, and the fair bride was mfhus a wedding ring. In- stead of sitting down to a breakfast the party hurried back to (he chureh and were thus practically married twice in one day, Cupid ran amuck some time ago among the old folk of a Georgia town An old soldier, 78 years of age, led to the altar an aged damsel who had seen 72 summers, There were three brides maides, whese ages respectively were 60, 68 and 70.
