The other day Father O’Hare and Mr. Stewart, the Episcopal rector of Auburn, went to the town clerk for this . license. At first the town clerk was much puzzled what to do, as he had no proper license bJanks, but he finally got over the difficulty, and the clergymen departed. After they had got on a street car they opened their licenses, and each ‘was horrified to find himself in the possession of a full fledged second class liquor license, with power to run a liquor shop subject to all the privileges and penalties of the law. A closer inspection of the license, however, showed that the words ‘‘second class liquor license,’’ giving power to sell ‘malt, spirituous and intoxicating liquors’’ at retail or wholesale, had’ had a line drawn through them, and instead of the words ‘to sell malt, spirituous and intoxicating liquors’’ were interlined the words ‘‘to perform marriages,’’ and Each clergyman made a wry face as he contemplated his battered license, and each silently vowed to exhibit it only in case of dire peril of a $20 fine. But both blessed the ingenuity of the official that could transform a document which portends so much evil for. the race, according to their views, into an instrument with power to give suoh happiness.—New York Tribune.

license before officiating at marriages. The other day Father O’Hare and Mr. Stewart, the Episcopal rector of Auburn, went to the town clerk for this . license. At first the town clerk was much puzzled what to do, as he had no proper license bJanks, but he finally got over the difficulty, and the clergymen departed. After they had got on a street car they opened their licenses, and each ‘was horrified to find himself in the possession of a full fledged second class liquor license, with power to run a liquor shop subject to all the privileges and penalties of the law. A closer inspection of the license, however, showed that the words ‘‘second class liquor license,’’ giving power to sell ‘malt, spirituous and intoxicating liquors’’ at retail or wholesale, had’ had a line drawn through them, and instead of the words ‘to sell malt, spirituous and intoxicating liquors’’ were interlined the words ‘‘to perform marriages,’’ and Each clergyman made a wry face as he contemplated his battered license, and each silently vowed to exhibit it only in case of dire peril of a $20 fine. But both blessed the ingenuity of the official that could transform a document which portends so much evil for. the race, according to their views, into an instrument with power to give suoh happiness.—New York Tribune.
