After a long description of the
bride, her surroundings and her cos-
tume, a Boston paper In Its social col-
umn adds (as a sort of postscript):
*Wr. Is fine looking and well set

He is attending to some business con.

CARS ARE NEEDED.
The car situate n will make some hustl-
ing when the cotton movement begins in
earnest. It is generally expected that
the cotton crop will be large and there
will accordingly lie a greater demand for
cars. At the present time all available
cars are in use for shipments of mer-
chandise, and a shortage is looked for if
any more are needed soon. Every road
in the South is now iligging up anything
that looks like a car and getting it readv
for service and still it is expected that
before the fall is over there will be de-
mands that cannot be filled.
