John B. Adams and Luella B.Cleaves, both of Rocky Ford, weremarried at the Harvey House July4th, by |udge binity, in the pres-ence of a number of friends. Themost remarkable thing about themarriage is that the Judge admittedthat he kissed the bride. We learnthat his osculatory demonstrationwas like unto the pop of a Chinesefirecracker.

Much of the space in this issueof the Tribune is taken up by thearticle of Rev. |ames Sheppard indefense of the Fries home. Atransposition of the Latin phrase“multum in parvo" very terselyexpresses our opinion of the ar-ticle. We do not fancy being calledan “an emissary of Satan,” espec-ially in our own newspaper, but

1 we will consider the source and let; it go at that, just this once.
