The precedent OF Mrs. Sloan's divorce
and immediate remarriage was followed
on last Monday by DR.. r. f. Citizen of
this city who was married to Miss
Helena Lau in Council Bluffs, Iowa, as
soon as the telegram OF his divorce from
his former wife reached him. 1t is
customary to record the marriages of
the inhabitants of this little city ia these
columns and it il usually a pleasant
chure. but in this case it is both painful
and awkward. Marriage is a sacrament
or it is nothing and IL it is to be dis
solved in the morning ard the culpable
party allowed to marry in the afterr Don

society to protect it from degeneration
and disintegration are as gossamer and
may be brushed aside with as little
effort.
Cards have been received in the city
announcing the approaching marriage
OF Miss Winnie Crandall to HerMy B.
Hicks. The ceremony will be per.
formed in the Memorial Baptist church
of Chicago on Tuesday evening, June,
