OH DEAR!
Last week a loving couple were joined in the holy bauds of wedlock at Salinas City. They were married in the morning, and immediately stepped aboard the cars for a bridal tour to San Francisco. They attracted considerable attention on their way to this place by their honeymoon ways, and created a good deal of quiet fun among the goodly number of ladies Jand gentlemen who were passengers. In due time the cars entered the tunnel a short distance from this place, and all for a few moments were enveloped in darkness. All too soon the cars emerged into the broad glare of the noonday sun, and our loving bride and groom were discovered locked in each other's arms and exchanging kisses at a rate seldom seen in public. The passengers took in the situation in about a second, and a shout went up that nearly threw the train from the track, and brought the conductor to the scene on the doublequick. " Pass it around," yelled a big man who was on his way East to get his wife. "Go back to the tunnel,' said another man to the conductor ; and as the newly-made husband settled back in his seat, he was heard to say, "Sarah, I thought tunnels were longer. Darn a railroad company, anyway. "
