Berry of this City and Miss Rose V. Stewart of Marys- vilia is announced to take place early this month. Both are prominent and have an dental. He says that no argument or quarrel,preceded the shooting, and claims that the principals are the best of friends. Eariy in the evening the man who was shot walked into the Receiving Hospital and asked to have his wound dressed. An examination showed that a pistol bullet hzad passed through the fleshy part of the right hand. The wound was not serious. The man gave the name ot Frank Jones, and said that the injury was the result of an accident. The story be told was that he and & friend ~were examining their revolvers 1in a saloon on Market streer, and that - while passing his weapon over to his friend the firearm was accidentally discharged. More than this he would not state and went away as soon as the injury was dressed. THREE CUTTING SCRAPES. G. D Harrington, J. J. Cahalan and C. M. Lamm Suffering ¥rom Ugly Knife Wounds. The new year was ushered in in the lower strata of society by several cutting affairs, which, while not of a very serious nature, will compe! the victims ‘o go bandaged for several days. At an early hour in the morning a row was started in asaloon on Fourth and Perry streets in which George D. Harrington of 169 Minna took a promineat part, The saloon-keeper named Cullen also entered Ithe fray, and he cut Harrington on both hatds and the forehead with a knife. Harrington was sent to the Receiving Hospital for repairs. C. M. Lamm, a seafaring man, was also friefids -were at. the Palace Hotel yester- day. His many tours throughout Califor- nia in behalf of the Republican party have gained hjin a wide acquaintance and many Séenators ‘and. Assemblymen paid him _a friendly, call on their way to Sacra- mernto. | The coming election of United States ‘Senator was ore of the topics discussed at the Palace .and Grand hotels and Union Léague Club. On ali sides it was acknowl- edged that Perkins had lost rather than gained strength during the past week. It iy positively known that the chief ad- visers of the Senator have wired him to comé at onice to Caiifornia and brace up his- supposed sipporters. Surprise was expressid at the- activity and growing strength of the Perkins opposition. | Sevéral of the champions of the Senator | . were bu explaining that the rumor of defection in _thé Alameda delegation was all moonshine, but the friends of Judge Waymire, who aspires to a seat in the | Presideat's Cabinet, are’ becoming more | indigpant and.atiribute the recent action | ofthe Lalilornia’ delegation to the active | hostility, of Senator Perkins, who was sup: posed to be the friend and champion of | Judge Waynire.

Dr. Berry, as well as Miss Stew- art, is a native of California. They have been sweethearts since school days. The bride that is to be is an unusually accomplished lady. She attended for a year the Bos:on Conservatory of Music, and was for three and a hali years there- after a student of music in Berlin. Dur- ing her experience abroad she became a | proficient German linguist. Her musical teachers were among the eminent of Europe. Herr Rief, the celebrated pianist, was one of them. She made great prog- ress, Miss Stewart for some time previous to taking up her musical studies as a spe- cialty was a student at Woodland. Her iriends are legion in that city and Marys- ville. Her father was the late R-v. D Stewart of the Christian church, Marys- viil -Dr. Berry is so well known in San ¥ran- cisco that with thousands of people a mere reference is all that is necessary to identity him. He was for five years as- sistant po ice surgeon, immediately after graduating from Cooper College, and since then, as indeed at_the time, he has been | encaved in general practice. | The doctorisanative of Sutter County, a | son of R. C. Berry, a pioneer of Marysvilie, and a nephew of ex-Con:ressman Berry. One thing that raises him in the esteem of men who bave bad 1o make progress by their own efforts is that he has risen in his profession unaided by any one. Itis noteasy to find a young profes- sional man with more friends than Dr. Berry. He is of genial ways, companion- able, and holds his friends. While assistant police surgeon he was 80 unfalteringly obliging to the members of the newspaper profession, who from the necessities of their calling had often to apply to him for information, that the recollection is fraught with pleasant thoughts. He is a popular member of the Press Club, and has been for severai years. The marriage will take place at the resi- dence of Miss Stewart’s sister, Mrs. J. M. Berry of Marysville. Attera’ brief wed- ding trip, probably to one of the attract- ive near-by resorts, they wiil return and commence housekeaping. The wedding is to be a quiet affair, only a few relatives and friends bemng present. SROT IN THE HAND. Billy 0’Donnell Wounded by a Bullet ¥rom William Godfrey’s Gun. William Godfrey, assistant secretary of the Caiifornia Jockey Club, shot Billy O’Donnell in the hand in the Cafe Colum- bia, 15 Powell street, last evening. ‘Whether the shooting was intentional or accidental is not known. Charles Green, proprietor of the Columbia, is of treated at the hospital for several wounds on his hands and ear. According to his | story he isa sailor onthe ship Winheld | Scoft, and during the early part of the night he had a good " time after the man- ner of his kind_ drinking ina saloon on Pacitic street. When he was leaving the rlace he was assaulted by a man who ooked like a Mexican and stabbed as de- scribed. un Lamm says that the assault was rovoked. be case of J.J. Cahalan of 5 Morris avenue was somewhat pecuiiar showed the remarkable effect of Fifth- street liquor. Cahalan had been drinking heavily, and in his rounds wound upin a ?Ix?n on Clara street, where he sfarted a gm-mn all accounts he got the worst of the row, and the man with whom he had the difficulty skipped out as soon as he saw Cahalan take bis jackknife from his pocket. Although his adversary had fled, Cahalan was determined to draw blood, so he slashed the blade across his own throat, producing an ugly but not a dangerous wound. He was sent to tbe Receiving Hospital, where he caused much trouble to the surgeons who dressed the wound. Late in the afternoon Charles Swanson, a sailor, who was under the influence of liquor, walked into the hospital with his right ear hanging down over his coat-col- Jar—another case where the New Year's knife had been at work. Bwanson said that he lives at 143 East street, and that while in a fight with another sailor the latter had used a carving-knife on his (Swanson’s) head. It required several stitches to get the sailor’s ear back to any- thing like its natural position. GENERAL BARNES' Cbristmus oration at the Bohemian Club is said to be the finest speech he ivex made. It appears in The Wave this week. * —————— Injured by a Fall, Garret Galvin, a man apparently 75 years of age, met with a sevcre accident last evening.
