Married.

Mr.. George H. Somers and Miss
Anna Dykes were united in marriage
in Omaha last Saturday, August 11th.
Unknown and unsupported by the
public the contracting parties left their
home in Douglas township and went
out to Omaha, where they were mar
ried, after which they returned home
as quietly and as unsupported as they
had gone.
Mr.. Somers is one of the best known
men in Audubon county, having lived
in the county for many years, being
among the first of those who saw and
recognized the vast resources of the
county. He and his brother are
among the largest real eastate owners
of the county, having one of the finest
and best laying pieces of land in
Douglas township. By years of push
Somers has accumulated beyond the
average of his fellow men and today is
the owner of large herds of fine cattle
and all kinds of stock. while he has
many acres of meadow and golden
grain. He is in the prime of manhood
and possesses those characteristics that
marks HIM as man of affairs who is
able and competent to contend with
the battles of life and provide home
with those comforts and luxuries es-
sential to life of joy and happiness.
Miss Dykes, his life chosen partner,
for several years past has had charge
of his household affairs and has evil
IDENTIFY so conducted and presided over
them as to win the love and affection
of him who has promised at the sacred
altar to love, cherish and protect her
through life. She has lived in the
county for years and her friends will
be pleased to learn of the pleasant sur
roundings which will be hers to enjoy
through life.
They will continue along the even
tenor of their way and go on helping
to conduct the affairs of the big farm
and large interests as heretofore.

cessful sessions ever held in the coun-
ty. While the attendance may not
have been as large, the interest mani
fest has never been excelled. But l45

When Wagner's energy was not ex.
pended in his art work, it found vent
in many humorous salies. Once he stood
on his head for Praeger. That was
physical humor. But he was also fond of
Joking. He once quoted his teachers
remark that he would never learn to
play the piano. "But," he added, IL
play Il great deal better than Berlioz."
The waggishncss of this remark lies in
the fact that Berioz could not play at
all.
During rehearsal of the "Rcnzi"
overture in Dresden the trombones were
too loud. Instead of rebuking them an
griy, he said with laugh. "Gcntlrmen,
we are in Dresden, not marching around
the walls of Jericho" After "Tann-
hauser' was brought out German com.
poser of little note. named Chellard, said
that the Song to the Evening Star" was
wrongly harmonized and suggested GER
tain harmonies which should be sub.
stituted for those employed by Wagner
When Wagner was among friends, it
was one of his favorite diversions to seat
himself at the piano and sing the Song
to the Evening Star" n Ia CheIlard.-

The silkworm was originally found in
China, and fabrics of this material were
made in that country about 200 b. 9.
About 800 yards of silk are produced by
single worm, and there are nearly l3
pounds of waste silk, designated rs
thrown silk" for every pound of good
silk. Thrown silk, although known as
waste silk, is not by any means useless,
for delicate and intricate modern ma.
chinery now converts II into fit material
for the manufacturer USE The chief
waste in silk culture arises from defect.
i've cocoons, and the material secured
from them is real waste silk"
The elasticity of silk is remarkable
The great diversity in the diameter of
the fiIament produced by the silkworm is
the cause of much difficulty in maintain.
ing uniformity in the dimensions of the
reeled silk. II, for instance, the operative
starts off with six strands from as many
cocoons, the product from each will di.
minish more or less in diameter. Conse.
qucntly in order to preserve the standard
regularity 1t becomes necessary to add or
take away the product Of one or two
more worms, which operation calls for
considerable skill and judgmcnt.-Manu.

Il saw tual she was better alone SO l
went away to telegraph for her aunt and
make what other arrangements deemed
necessary, feeling that reaction would
come presently and that Carlotta would
call for me. But she did not, nor would
she see me for weeks after her mothers
death. Then one day when called. she
sent down word that she wished to speak
to me. ! was disnayed when she came
into the room, the ghost of her former
self. All the energy and animation were
gone out of her face; even her hair look

The Water Commission yesterday
afternoon discussed a plan to pro-
vide a graduate scale Of minimum
rates to be charged against per-
sons getting meter water service.
The lowest rate will be charged
persons having small service
meter, and the rates are toincrease
correspondingly with the aperture
of the meter. The matter was re-
ferred to Chief Engineer Bond to
report at some future meeting.
The Wilmington Steamboat Com
pany requested a more adequate
service for protection against fires
in their vicinity. The commission
ers were OF the opinion that every
thing should be done to guard
against conlagrations, and Chief
Engineer Bond was authorized to
make recommendations about en-
tending the service OH East Fourth
street.
Mr.. Bond submitted list Of trees
desired to replace some that have
decuyed or died in Cool Spring
Park, and they will be purchased
at cost of Sol. The application
OF the +. Blumenthal Company to
be permitted to alter the course of
water pipes in the bed of Reed
street, in order to improve their
service for protection against fires
was granted.
Engineer Bond reported that he
had placed data about the damag-
ing of water pipes by cleetrolysis
before City Solicitor Conrad, who
will have an interview with Willard
Salisbury, aerney for the Will
mington CITY Railway Company,
before instituting legal action.
DR.. Shortlidge consulted with the
commissioners about the proposed
plan to cleanse the lake in Cool
Spring Park. No action was TAX
en-, however.
In few weeks the commissioners
will probably advertise for pro-
posals for a high duty pump to be
constructed for supplying the tow
er in Rockford Park. The COM
missioners have specifications for
one pump, but desire more informa-
ton before they proceed.

Spoilers on street cars have for years
been found necessary by the railway COM
punies, but barroom spoilers are Of more
recent origin. As rule. they are sup
piled by detective agencies at the request
of saloon keepers who fear they are get
ting the worst of bad deal. The pro-
prietor of resort not far from Tenth and
Chestnut streets had his suspicious arous-
ed and enlisted the services of couple
Of spoilers. The report that they made
was a staggerer In less than an hour
and half the barkeeper under suspicion
had played the cash register for $3.50,
and then he was promptly placed under
arrest.
''He was on an eight hour shift at
that" walled the proprietor. ''If he'd
have worked through the day, the place
would have belonged to him by closing
time"
There's another saloon keeper up town
who won't employ bartender with pock-
cts in his clothes. And even then, he
says, they get the better Of him by roll
ing up their sleeves and secreting stray
coins in the folds.-Philadelphia Record.
