Mr.. and Mr.. w. f. Harza were the
recipients Of pleasant surprise on
Monday evening. 1t being the twen-
tieth anniversary Of their wedding
some forty of their friends and neigh
bors gathered at their home on Pierce
street and proceeded to celebrate the
event in a most enjoyable manner.
The guests left beautiful china set

out"
Conspicuous among our advertise
ments In this issue the reader may
find the liberal offer made by our pop
ular photographer, o. G. Oyloe. The
REGISTER can truthfully say that the
portraits excel any put out by adver-
tising, premium and other outside
concerns that have been going about
this county catching the people dur.
ing the past year. Mr.. Oyloe is we'll
known here, he is an excellent artist
and makes a plain proposition to all
who wish to get good portraits cheap.
Just think of being able to get a good
frame and portrait 16x2O inches for
only $1.SS. The frame alone is worth
more than he asks for the entire
outfit.
The neglect Of the REGISTER TO
mention the annual supper given by
the Presbyterian ladies week ago
Friday was not because we were not
present to test its palatable qualities,
neither was it because we did not
wish to credit the ladies with the |
finest spread they have yet made. 1t
was pure, unadulterated neglect and
no excuse for it. But the supper
needed no praises from us, they were
heard on every hand and the most
conclusive evidence Of its superior
qualities was attested by Abe fact that
everything disappeared 10 rapidly |
that in less than two hours the ladies
were at their wits end to find enough |
to eat for those who were still in |
waiting. The affair netted the So
ciety a snug little sum. No small
amount of credit is due Mr.. Barr in
making it financial success as he
very generously donated his restaur-
ant and business for the afternoon |
and evening, making it amost acces-
sable and convenient place for an
event of that character.
Charles Curtis Trussell was born in
the state of Vermont Dec. "a, 1865.
When but child his parents moved
t0 Wisconsin aud settled near Bara-
boo, where until he reached the age'of
II he attended school but was then |
obliged to aid in the support OF his
parents. He WAS married to Miss |
Minnie Dolson at Sparta, Wisconsin,
Sept. 9TH, 1894. August 10, 1897, Mr..
and Mrs. Trussell became residents of
this city where they have since lived.
Mr.. Trussell was very much Of home
body and his retiring disposition had
made for him but few acquaintances
in the city before his death. He was
a man of good habits, kind to his
family, and it was in his little home
circle that he was most appreciated.
His death came sudden, having been
taken with hemorrhages he passed
away Saturday morning, Nov. rs,
about 10 o'clock. The funeral oc-
Cured Sunday afternoon at the Pres
byterian church, Rev. E. /. Davies
preaching the funeral sermon. The
remains were escorted by the Modern
Woodmen of America Of which order
the deceased was member. Mrs.
Trussell is left with family OF two
small children and the insurance
carried by the deceased will be of
great value to them.
