ed at the power house an average OF
ninety gallons of water to every man,
/ woman and child in the city each day
| and there are not third of the people
take city water. When water is so
WASTED at public expense, what is to be
ldone about it is the question they
lwant answered.

marriage in the parlors of the Baptist
church on Tuesday evening the 18th
inst. Both deacons being old residents

his own inimitable manner, and in
humorous vein, which was loudly ap-
plauded. This was followed by a
choice program under the able man
agement of Mr.. Rand, consisting of a
vocal solo by Mrs. Arthur Thompson,
piano solos by Mrs. Schulz, duett by

held was fully demonstrated by the
numerous and beautiful presents given
by apprecative friends. The guests
departed at late hour feeling that the
occasion had been one long to be re-
membered.
