In MatrimOny's Bonds.

AT $3.50 this morning Austin Il. Nc
Kay and Miss Dell Simpson were unit
ed in the bonds of holy matrimony.
The ceremony took place at the resi-
dence of the brides parents, in the
eastern part of the city, Rev. Engle of
| the M. E. church officiating. The
groom is brother of Judge Mckay,
and is the court stenographer of this
district. The bride is the accomplish
ed daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. r. d.
Simpson, and one of the prima dona
of southern Kansas. Mr. Mckay is TO
be envied for the prize achieved. Only
few relatives and friends witnessed
the ceremony, after which congratula-
tlonS and best wishes were ShOwered
upon the contracting parties. Mac is
now a new man with all the glory of
the spriDgtime of life before him. He
is indeed fortunate IN acquiring such a
proficient helpmate. The happy coup
le left on this mornings train, for Atti-
ca where they will remain a short time
with the groom's parents, after which
they will go to Anthony, their future
home. The INDEX joins with the host
of friends of the high contracting par
ties, in extending congratulations and
hopes for success in the future.
Last week the Cresset took occa-
sion to criticise our statement of the
salaries paid the county officers. We
will freely admit that our statement of
the probateJ udge's salary was underes-
timated, and Will say in explanation
that we were misled by a county
officer. We should have said he re-
ceiyes S155. quarter instead of 500,
besides fees which at present amount
to very little. The commissioners do not
receive mileage, but what is substau-
italy the same, they are allowed time in
going to and from the county seat at
the rate of So, per day. We didn't say
that the register of deeds receives 800
per year. But in speaking of the COM
| pensation of the surveyor, register of
deeds and probate Judge, we said they
will average about 500 per year" If
! the local editor of the Cresset will en-
plOy his mathematics to a small extent
he will find this to be correct. For the
benefit of the Cresset we will say that
we were not figuring on last YEARS
enumeration of the school population
when we stated the superintendent
salary but what it actually is now. In
the main, our figures were correct, the
salary of the probate judge being the
only instance in which we erred. But
since the Cresset has taken us to tasl
because we have not stated the salarie.
precisely to the cent or major fraction
thereof, we deem it opportune to quot:
a few figures from this unerrjng sage
In stating the compensation of the pro
bate judge, it says, $500 all fees, ;
when 1t should have said $500. salary
and fees which cannot be exactly es
tlmated. So it seems that even tn,
Cresset, veritable prototype of in
fallibility though it be, has actuall,
made as great mistake as we hal
made. One Of the commissioners fel
grieved because we SAID the commission
efs receive mileage. This is what call
ed the Cresser's article forth.

The Alva base ball nine was de.
feated, Wednesday, by the Medicine
Lodge boys, in score of 80 toI4. Sew
eral professional players from abroad
had been employed by the Medicine
Lodge nine including a pitcher and
catcher. We don't believe there is a
nine at the Lodge. composed entirely
of home men, that can beat the Alya
boys without practice, as the game was
played on the Fourth.-Kiowa Review.
Your informant must have been an
unreliable one. The pitcher of the
Medicine Lodge nine was a Medicine
Lodge man, Fred Ellis by name. and
whose equal by the way, is not to be
/ found within radius of one hundred
miles. A few of the best players OF
the city found ltimDossible to get away
whose places were filled by Messrs
Bodenhammer and Mccullough Lying
in the country. The Medicine Lodge
! nine is too much for the combined
forces Of all the Strip teams.

The Medicine Lodge base ball
team had walk-away with the Alva
nine on the Fourth. The score stood
so to Is in favor of the former, and the
S25 was taken in charge by theMedicine
boys. Mccullough and Bodenhammer
deserve special praise for the skillful
way in which they played 'em'' Nc
Cullough played behind the bat, and
Bodenhammer in the right field where
he did honor to his position and, was a
strong factor in leading the boys to
victory. A game of six innings was
played on the morning of the 9Th, re-
sulting in score of IS to 10 in favor of
Alva. Some of the Medicine Lodge
boys had left the night before, while
others were severely bruised the day
before; had it not been for this Alva
would have been defeated again.

-Uncle Ed. Howard died at his home
near Sterling, in the Strip, last Sunday
He had been suffering long time from
canker, and death, IN this case, was
a relief. The remains were brought
up to the home of his son-in-law, C. D.
Newkirk, IA miles south OF this city
and laid to rest in the Newkirk GENE
terry yesterday afternoon. Quite a
number of our citizens from this yicin-
ity attended the funeral. He had long
been citizen of this county until the
Strip opened up and had a wide &C.
qIaintance-a man well thought of by
all who knew him. He leaves a wife
and several grown up sons and daugh.
tiers to mourn his departure, and the
sympathy of the community goes out
to them in their affection.
