Durham’s Streets Scene of Iany Happenings, Sad and Otherwise, As Busy Throng Plied Its Various Ways All Over Town. As a general thing, this quiet little burg situated up amongst the highlands of Ontario goes about its business seriously, but for a few minutes on the night in question, it looked as if that well-known Ro- tary song, "Runnin’ Wild," had been written for occasions like this. The whole thing started at the south end of town when a couple of our rural residents “came to- gather" with a crash that. made more noise than Mrs. Murphy kiss- ing hrr longâ€"lost cousin. Both parties referred to were driving Fords, the one a touring and the other a sedan, and both tried to no- gotiatr tho samr right-of-way at tho same timv. The result was a rrash and a crack that could hr hoard for a block, and when tho Ii;- zirs \w-ro priml loosr frm‘i timir e-mhrarr. it. was found both had sus- tainmt ronsidm'ahlo damage.

THE DURHAM CHRONICLE The marriage of Miss Marjorie C. Middlehru’, R..\'., to Dr. V'arnon (Zar- iisle of Mount Dennis was quietly solemnized on Saturday, July 31, at 1 o’clock p. m. at the residence of the farmer’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. John G. Middlebro’, 5th avenue east, in the. presence of immediate rela- tives and friends. Rev. S. J. Farmer, pastor of the First Baptist church officiated. '~The rooms were enbowered with many fragrant flowers, and the ceremony took place before a bank of lilies, roses, ferns and other bloom and greenery, arranged before the fireplace. The bride was given in marriage by her father and looked winsome in a gown of white geor- gette with touches of sih er and ear- r ed a shower bouquet. She was attended by Miss (ii-ace Sutton, RN... of 'l‘orontx), who was charming in mauve geergette. The groom was supportml by Dr. Bateman of Mount Dennis. The bride‘s sister, Mrs. Frank Horton, rendered the wedding march. and later Mrs. tlharles Mid- dlebrn’ sang: sweetly "Because." A l'mtl'et lunrheun was. serVed. follow- ing the ceremony.

A SBA MYSTERY SOLVED CARLISLEâ€"IIDDLEBRO’ the Mary Sellers, but. in trading with the Brazilians, the name was corrupted to Marie Celeste, which was finally painted on her stern. On September 30, 1872. she was at New York under Captain Briggs loading cargo for Genoa, but as there was more oil than she could take, the company part chartered an Eng- lish Vessel, the Dei Gratia, Captain Moorhouse, to carry the surplus. Briggs had trouble making up his crew, and Moorhouse lent three of his until they reached the Azores. The Marie Celeste sailed three three days after the Dei Gratia and was in trouble from the start. A piano broke loose in a storm and killed the wife of the captain. Briggs went insane from grief and jumped over- board. The male had a tight with one of the seamen and threw him into the sea. Otl‘ Santa Marta in the Azores, the mate, the heatswain and another of the crew entered a hum- boat, went ashore and did not re- turn. The three men from the liei Gratin kept. sober and decided to remain on the lorig until Captain Mmrhouse came along. l‘eniherten. the cook, \Vho expected the mate in return, also remained with the hrig. \s there was no sign of the 1M (liatia toi sexei at dnvs. theV stee ien t”\\llltls (iihialt: ll‘, and en lie. e nihei q 4 met the ether ship.
