Our Mild Winter.

People forget about the weather, and
then We hear it said that the present mild
winter is unprecedented. But cores
pondent, writing TO us, says:
My occupations, during the winters OF
1928, fixed indelibly in my mind the
following facts, viz: The farmers were
blowing every month. The frost inter
fered very little with their work. There
was no weather so cold as we have had this
season. The ice makers were i'm trouble.
The heaviest snow of the season fell on the
afternoon and evening of Tuesday after
the March meetings, and scarcely vestige
of it remained on Thursday following.
There was no sleighing for one-half day.
The Indian maxim that ''the winter will
not rot in the sky" was often quoted by
my neighbor. But it did. Yet the spring
was not earlier than usual The apple
trees were i'm full blossom before the 10Th
OF May, but white frosts appeared every
morning till the Odd.

California Yesterday After
noon.

The remains of the late Samuel H
Owens were inferred in the cemetery a,
California yesterday afternoon, in the
presence of hundreds of mourning friends
The funeral services were in charge of the
Masonic grand lodge, of which order de-
ceased was an honored member, and the
sermon was delivered by Rev. John d.
Vincil, grand secretary of the grand lodge.
The Masonic ceremonies were conducted by
A. M. Dockery, grand master of Masons.
The services were most beautiful and i'm
pressive, and were worthy tribute to an
excellent man. The Masonic fraternity
was represented largely from nearly every
section of the state, and the funeral cortege
was one of the largest ever witnessed in
Central Missouri.
The remains were escorted to their last
resting place by 1O4 Master Masons, %
Knights Templar, 40 Royal Arch Masons,
large delegation of the A. o. L. w., the
military company of California and the
Capital Guards of Jefferson City.
Special trains were run from Boonville
and Jefferson City, both of which arrived

ty. The only Masonic representatives

ROSS-EVANS.
A Quiet Wedding on Lafayette
Street Last Night.

A pleasant, though informal and quie,
wedding, took place last evening at the
residence of the brides brother-in-law,
Rev. w. c. Westlake, on Lafayette street
The contracting parties were Mrs. Maggie
Ross, daughter of Rev. VIM. Ferguson, who
resides in the suburbs of this city, and Mr.
citizen OF the neighbOring town of Dresden.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
Westlake in a very beautiful and APP
propriate manner, and at its conclusion,
after earnest and sincere congratulations
had been offered for the happiness and
prosperity of the newly welded husband
and wife, the assembled guests adjourned
to the dining room, where an elegantly ar
ranged supper, consisting of oysters,
turkey, salads, pickles, a variety of choice
cakes, fruit, CONNECTIONS, tea and coffee was
partaken Of
The bride was attired in a prune-colored
cashmere dress, trimmed with narrow
shirred rutfies, surmounted by deep, full
putis pannier drapery of silk of the same
shade of prune, with garniture at the
throat of rich lace completed very hand
some and effective toilet. The bridegroom,
as was becoming to his dignity and years,
appeared well in a neat fitting suit OF
black. There were no attendants, and
owing to the inclemency of the weather,
which had necessitated change i'm the
original programme, the company was not
large one Those who were present en-
ioyed the affair very much.
Mr. and Mrs. Evans will make their
future home in Dresden. The BAzoo ex-
tends congratulations and wishes that the
days of their futurity may ever hold
sunshine and happiness until death do
them part"

Twas q Put-up Job.

The boys on the K & T. put up job
on Billy Bartlett, the popular north end
baggagemaster, a few days ago, and for the
time being had their own fun. They re-
ported to the Hannibal Courier man that
Billy had taken unto himself a wife, and
of course it was SO published, to the great
annoyance of the baggagemaster. The
Courier of Saturday last, however, has this
correction, which places Billy all right:
wv. L. Bartlett, the clever Missouri Pa
cifc baggageman, whom the Courier re-
ported as being married, after love had
triumphed i'm laughing at locksmiths and
overcoming the prejudice of proud Vir-
ginia father at Paris, called at the Courier
Office late last evening and said the "boys''
put up Job on him that he is not mar
ried. Miss Mary Rose foiied the sly old
father just as the Courier stated, and he
now gives his consent for Billy to call and
see his lady love at Paris and wed her if he
chooses"
As all the objections have been removed,
the BAzoo advises the young man to lose
no time, but sail in from the word 60.

Philips will be candidate in case OF such
an event, although he has never declared
himself an applicant for the position.-St
