MAR RIED.

At the j mon Churh, Thursday,
December llth, 1884, by Rev. "A.
NJ. Long, Pastor of the Strangers
Church, of Memphis, Mr.. Charles A.
Woods, of Memphis, to Mrs. Julia
Moss, of Osccola.
Seldom has Osceola society been
stirred up and shaken down as the
event which gave rise to the above
announcement. 1t has been the
theme of conversation for weeks.
"Have you heard that Mrs. Julis
Moss is to be marnedY' has been
a standing Interrogation point for
months. The dag set for the happy
event to take place was ushcred in
with a deluge OF rain. The clouds
that had gathered the evening before,
poured out their contents in perfect
torrents. The steamer COahoma
brought up the expectant groom,
and Il large party OF his personal
friends, ladies and gentlemen, and
among the latter large delegation
of ROLAND Division No. ., Knights
of Pythias, and were transported
in buggies and hacks from the land
ing to town, through the drenchlng
rain. At the appointed time (l
o'clock the Union Church was
packed by almost the entire popula-
ton of the town, who seemed to at
taoh to this union the interest of a
personal matter of their own. Ow-
ing 70 the rain which continued to
pour, somo little delay was OCCASION
ed in procuring covered conveyances
for the bridal party and their at
tendants, but finally all being in
readiness, the bridal party preceded
by their attendants, marched up the
aisle, to the gay music of wedding
march played by Miss Francis Nc
Weigh, and grouped themselves about
the chancel. The toilet OF the bride
and her attendants were most ex-
quisite, and the young and twice
happy bride was never so lovely and
radiant as in the hour of her solemn
troth at the alter, where, surrounded
as she was by brave helmeted
knights, and conscious, the while, of
an abiding faith in the strength and
power of her liege lord to pilot them
through all the storms and sunshine
that might come upon their mutual
lives in the future.
The church was tastefully deco
rated with evergreen, fashioned into
wreaths and appropriate mottoes,--
an arch encircled the space in front
of the chancel, from the center Of
winch was suspended basket of
evergrcens filled with rare flowers,
under which the groom and bride
with their attendants stood, while
the ceremony was being solemnized
bv the Reverend gentleman, who in
full sympathy with an event augur-
ing SO auspiciously for the happy
touI'lt. iIdic ~ suttl CDHsttTdtIDIl
rs invested his Office with unusual
tenderness as well as ,acredncss.
The attendants were: l.. Lorgo-
aasino, of Mississippi, and Miss
Maggie Murray, of ceola; B.
Fcatherstone and Miss Rosa Mala-
testa, of Memphis; Ed. Foster, of
Memphis, AMI Mrs. Lula Hazard, of
Osceola; |. Brannon and Miss Min
nie Dearth, of Memphis. The ushers
were Messrs, w. Scott Howe anu
Morris lIcirz.
The large assembly Of friends and
acq1aHtonces who gathered togeth-
or to witness the marriage ceremony,
and who silently asscnted to their
union, augured naught but happy
aud propitious union. In the lam
guage of the poet, "May they live
long and prosper"

tremendous Interchange

a tremendous Interchange of
compliments is going ON between
Roscoe Conkling and Theodore
Roosevelt. Mr.. Conkling called the
younger Politician "that dentiical
young man with more teeth than
TRUTH" and said that he was "the
hot-house tool of pot-house politi-
clans" Mr.. Roosevelt retorts by
describing the elder politician as
"the pouter-pigion of politics." who,
he says, "can stand ON his fork ed
end and talk more inflated nonsense
than any other man in America"-

for horse stealing; and ere the earth
had revolved upon its axis another
revolution, Chas. Owens and Chas.
Fallon, both noted horse thieves and
desperadoes, were helped into eternity
by the citizens of Lewistown, a full
account of which appears on the first
page of this issue. In every instance
thus far the executed thieves had justly
deserved the fate that overlook them.
The only solution of the dare devil
try exhibited by Owens and Fallon
that we a arrive at is that they
were crazy drunk, or, knowing they
were surrounded by men who were de-
termined to capture and compel them
to act the principal parts in a "neck-
tie party" became desperate and de
termined to def die they must
with their boots on.
The fortunate escape of the citizens
from wounds and death is unquestion-
ably due to the fact that both OF the
bandits were mortally wounded at the
commencement of the affray. They
are certainly to be congratulated upon
the outcome. and we trust the result
will prove an adexuate lesson to bad,
blood thirsty, long haired reprobates
to give Montana towns a wide berth.

The chances for life or death for q
few minutes were about equal.
The people of Lewistown can con
graduate themselves on their fortunate
escape from being killed or wounded.

The ball given by VIM. Hortop,
though opening under the most dis
couraging circumstances, proved n
very pleasant party. T~hirty-eight num-
bers were sold. The music furnished
by the Cottonwood band was satisfac-
tory to all.
The photographer, who has been
shooting at everybody on Spring Creek,

Charley Owens was a prospector in
the Judith mountains two years since,
and was well known by many of the
Maiden people. He came to Montana
from the Black Hills, where he had n
very unsavory reputation, being identl-
fed with a band of horse thieves there.
George Hunter had chair in his nose

bodies amounted to $17. so. The count,
is ahead on this deal.

The people of Montana and of
Meagher county in particular, seem
determined to make it exceedingly
sultry for horse thieves from this time
forward. Great care should be used
however, in dealing with this evil. No
innocent man should be made to suffer
on suspicion or circumstantial evidence.
Positive proof should be the only con-
dition under which rash measures are
adopted.

If the mar who inherited his fathers
wealth, James Gordon Bennett, would
spend his summers in the great west
instead of Great Britain, he would
know more about its people. This
''curled darling" is at home when with
English snobs. If such English aping
