G. Reynolds to Elmer E. Reynolds
of Lower Oxford, who were married

Rising Sun. c T. Reynolds, brother
OF the briae, was the groom's first
man and Miss M Emma Reynolds
officiated as maid of honor to the
bride.
A large company composed mostly
OF relatives of the high contracting

The newly married couple took tie

arrangements to have reception at
the home of the groom's parents in
Lower Oxford ON Thanksgiving

An effort was made to give the
party "chivara' at the depot, which |
they neatly avoided by driving across
the track and remaining in their
carriage till the train arrived when
they stepped on board and waved
their musical friends good by.

Gathered Home.

Wednesday morn death entered the
home of J. Fred Bolster and took the
little four-year-old daughter. The
child was bright, winsOme being and
the family can scarcely be cOmforted
over the loss.
The disease which carried her away
was diphtheria, dangerous malady 10
make its appearance in the city. On
account of the nature of the disease it
is thought best to have no public serv-
ices al the house. The funeral cOrtege
will leave the home at 10 O'Clock
tomorrow and short burial service
will be held at the cemetery by w. II.
Zimmerman.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bolster have the heart
felt sympathy of wide circle of
friends in their bereavement. We sim
cerely hope that no more cases of diph-
iberia will break out either in the fam
lily or elsewhere in the city.

1t is sometimes true that people
must 60 away from home to learn the
news, and we have no doubt that there
are numbers of citizens of Abilene
who know less of some of the city's
later enterprises than they do of the
industries of places hundred or thous-
and miles away.
There is in the southwest part of
the city an industry that will well
repay visit, Its operations will be to

the knowledge of what can be accom-
plished here by the turning of mems
energies in the right direction. We
refer to the
ABILENE POTTERY WORKS,
conducted and owned by Mr.. J. NJ.
Hart, who is making of them a pro-
nounced success.
The establishment is not as yet very
extensive, but is still capable CT turning
out large amount of material. In
the three months that it has been in
operation over 100000 vessels have
been manufactured, and the workmen
are kept busy right along making more.
The building consists of four rooms
on the ground fiour-an engine room,
mixing room, molding room and drying
room. Large clay-mixers run by
machinery are seen in the second, and
well they do their work. In the third
the potters are fashiOning the plastic
clay into the various forms of house
hold utensils. The
THOUSANDS OF VESSELS
are then put on racks in the drying
room to await their trial by fire in the
great kiln inst outside.
The kiln takes in from 5000 to 5000
gallons at time and one burning occurs
each week. The ware when completed
is as fine and durable as any found in
the market. 1t has a clear, fine ring
and is without seam or crack.
Mr.. Hart informed US that he has nc
difficulty in disposing of all the ware
he can manufacture and that be
believed there is large field for Kan

We would advise our readers to

You will be well treated by Mr.. Hart

Turn, turn, my wheel, turn round and
