AT HYMEN'S ALTAR.
Several of Our Young People Enter the
Realms of MatriIDony.

Realms of Matrinony
Yesterday morning the nuptials Of
Henry Scheiber, of the town of Emmett,
and Miss Kittie Burger, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs Jacob Burger, of the
town Of Clyman, were celebrated in
Holy Assumption church at Clyman.
The ceremony was witnessed by a
large congregation and at its close the
lativeS and invited guests repaired
to the home of the. brides parents,
where a reception was held and the
bridal breakfast served. A large num-
Der Of friends from this city attended.
The contracting parties are very estim-
able young people and enjoy wide
acquaintance. They begin married
life under auspicious circumstances
and have the sincere wishes of all for
true happiness.
Herman Raue and Miss Arabella
Lange were united in marriage by
Rev. H. Sterz last Thursday evening
at the home of Mrs. Minna Lange,
mother OF the bride The wedding
was quiet affair and attended only
by the immediate relatives. Baldwin
Raue was best man and the bride was
waited upon by her sister, Miss Mar
tha Lange. Mr.. and Mrs. Raue at
once settled down to the enjoyment of
married life in their new home at 512
Third street The groom assists in
the management of the paint and wall
paper house of his brother, William
G. Raue.
Another quiet matrimonial event
occurred last Thursday afternoon at
the home of Mrs. Y. Froehlich, 301
North Second street, her niece, Miss
Emma Sauter, being joined in wedlock
with Justus Scheibel, of Milwaukee,
Rev. H. Sterz officiating. Both bride
and groom are well known here and
they enjoy universal esteem. They
have taken up their residence in Mil
waukee, where Mr.. Scheibel has d
good position. He was formerly en-
ployed here at The Bird ge barber shop.

Resigned His Position.

Otto c.. Heimerl, who has served as
agent Of the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway company at this point for
several years, rendered his resignation
short time since, the same to have
taken effect October 20, but as yet no
one has been selected as his successor
and he is still performing his duties.
During his service here Mr.. Heimerl
has been a most faithful, accommo-
dating and efficient official and when
he retires the company will lose an
excellent employe. He is well liked
by those who have had dealings with
him, and general regret is expressed
over the intended departure of him
self and family from Watertown. Mr..
Heimerl has decided to take this step
owing to poor health.
Since the above was in type the
Northwestern people have selected q
new agent here, Mr.. Erb, of Racine,
who takes charge to-day.

The O'ConnOr rIeeting.

Ex-Attorney General James L.
O'Connor, of Milwaukee, addressed a
Democratic meeting at Turner Opera
house last Wednesday night. The
hall was comfortably filed, although
there were quite a number of empty
seats. Notwithstanding Mr.. O'Connor
is an able and ready talker, he failed to
create much enthusiasm. His speech
was almost entirely an arraignment
of Governor Scofeld, and he was not
particular about confning himself to
facts and the truth. O'ConnOr is pos
ing on the stump as an angelic and
model politician, but we venture his
record as the leader of the gigantic
roster job scandal has not been for-
gotten by the voters, who cannot we'll
look upon him otherwise than as an
arch demagogue. Preceding Mr..
O7Connor, John F. SCHNEIDER, the Pop
ulist who is on the Democratic state
ticket for insurance commissioner,
made a brief address in which the
same old Populistic effort to arouse
class feeling and enmity was the prln-
cipal feature.

District Convention.

Owing to the inclement weather
last Thursday, the district convention
of the Order of Eastern Star held at
Masonic temple was not as largely at
tended as had been anticipated, still
there was a goodly representation
from the neighboring chapters. Mem
bers of the Watertown chapter met
the visitors at the depOts and escorted
them to the hall, which presented a
cheerful appearance in its decorations
of plants, palms, flags, etc. During
the convention the ritualistic work
and the floral work were exemplifed,
respectively, by the Fox Lake and the
local chapters. At 6 o'clock supper
was served in the banquet hall by the
home ladies, the menu including
escalloped oysters, salads, cold meats,
biscuits, jellies, pickles, cakes and
coffee. Upon the conclusion of the
lodge work a pleasant social session
wound up the convention.

A SPLENDID MEETING.
Large Republican Rally Addressed by
Senator Spsoner.


Senator Spsoner.
The large audience that crowded
Turner Opera house Saturday even
ING and the intense interest manifested
attested in marked degree the pop
ularity of United States Senator John
G. Spooner as a public speaker and
evidenced the fact that the voters of this
vicinity are not as apathetic as those
Of other sections have appeared to be.
1t was the first Republican rally Of
the campaign and it was good one.
Although the roads were almost i'm
passable, there were many people in
from the country and some Of the
nearby towns were well represented.
The Sinnissippi band enlivened the
occasion with patriotic music.
The meeting was under the auspices
of the Scofeld and Stone club, the
secretary of which, William H. Wood
ard, presented the speaker to the
audience. Mr.. SpOoner discussed at
length the political issues Of the day,
and, as is his infallible custom, spoke
he succeeded in making everything
plain. He dwelt principally upon the
money question, making an earnest
and eloquent plea for the upbuilding
/ and retention of sound and honest
currency system and graphically de-
picting the great Importance Of electing
! Representatives in congress who stand
] for such principles. He proclaimed
/ that this question is Of vital import
ance at the present time-just as much
so as two years ago. Mr.. SpOOner also
! alluded to the tariff question and tC
state issues, and in closing paid a fine
tribute to our fellow-citizen, Hon.
Jesse Stone, the Republican candidate
for lieutenant-governor, whom he
trusted would be favored with splen.
did home endorsement, which he SC
richly deserves. The speech is said
to have been a most excellent one anC
we regret that, owing to our not be-
ing present, we are unable to report
it more concisely and in better shape

Three Doctors in Consultation.

sWhen you are sick, what you like best is to
be chosen for a medicine in the first place ;
what experience tells you is best, to be chosen
