Desperate Work.

Sunday evening, about 9:30 O'Clock
Mrs. John Steib, Jr., had an exciting
experience with desperate character
bent on robbery. She had gone to
church on the east side and her
husband had gone with DR.. T. d.
Humphrey for long drive in the
country and was not expected home
until 10 or III o'clock. After church
Mrs. Steib returned home and at $3.50
prepared to retire, not having intended
to sit up to await the return of her
husband. There were some chunks of
wood on the rear porch which she
thought she would bring in to put in
the heater before going to- bed. The
house was all lit up SO that any one
on the outside could see all that was
within if they cared to. She went out
on the porch and stopped to pick up
the wood when some one grabbed her
roughly from behind under her arms
and threw her violently down the
steps. She screamed and her assistant
Jumped down after her and threw her
the shock of her fall and fright she
fallen for nearly half an hours
When she regained consciousness she
was nearly frozen, but she managed to
arouse the neighborS who came to her
assistance. The rObber had gone into
the house and rummaged through
every drawer in her. bureau and COM
modes and had left, going by way of
the front door which he had left open.
Fortunately there was no money in
the house and Mrs. Steib's watch
which is of considerable value, was
accidentally put IN an unusual place
that night and the thief overlooked it.
1t is not known that the thief took
anything, as nothing has been missed
as yet.

R, A, Mcdonald Postmaster

Friday mornings Milwaukee Senti-
mel brought the information to this
city that President Roosevelt had
sent the nomination of r. A.
Mcdonald of Grand Rapids to the
u. 5. Senate for confirmation as post
master of CentGalia to succeed w. III
Cochran. This appointment has been
expected for the past month and if it
is satisfactory to the west side. we all
join in its approval as Robert is life
long republican, good citizen, and
worthy of any honor his friends are
willing to bestOw upon him. While
this is true, is it in the interests of
good mail service to have two post
offices in one city? From our
knowledge of the service since the
consolidation of the cities of Centralia
and Grand Rapids we say not. but to
the contrary very unsatisfactory and
detrimental to the transient and local
people For instance we can recall
several instances where transient
people haye stopped at the hotels on
the west Or Centralia side, called at
the post Office for their mail believing
it to be the Grand Rapids post office.
when in fact it was the Centralia
post office. If not made acquainted
with the unusual post Office conditions
here, they would leave the city with
out calling for their mail ut the
proper office on the east side and
therefore go away without obtaining
their mail, often times disappointed,
causing unnecessary delays and eX-
pense. This could all be avoided by
uniting the two post offices and make
one of them "StatiOn Az instead of
continuing it as Centralia to the
detriment of all concerned. How
long the department at Washington
will allow this condition to exist, time
alone will tell. 1t would appear that
the present is the 2cceptibie time for
the department to make the change,
if not now, it certainly should be done
when the commission of the Grand
Rapids postmaster expires in Febru-
ary next We desire to 60 on record
in favor of consolidating the two
offices for the following reasons:
First-To improve the present very
unsatisfactory mail service.
SecOnd-That the Grand Rapids
post Office may be in the second class.
Third That Free Delivery may be
established in our midst at an early
date.
Fourth-That in union there is
strength as exemplified in the i'm
proved conditions accomplished since
the cities of Centrdlia and Grand
Rapids have been consolidated.

R0Sander-HOlberU.

One of the most notable weddings
that has occurred in the town of Sigel
was that Of Rev. G. a. ROsander of
Prentice and Miss Elfrida Holberg of
Sigel. The ceremony took place at
the Swedish Lutheran church in that
town on Thursday, Dec. 10, at 5
O'Clock in the afternoon. Rev. J.
William Johnson of Rhinelandcr
officiating, in the presence Of many
friends and relatives of the contract
ing parties. The church was beauti-
fully decorated in white and yellow
with profusiOn Of flowers and ever
greens banked about the alter and the
building was Illuminated with wax
candles. Miss Norma Nelson of Rock
ford, H., was maid of honor and
Hilmer Holberg, a brother of the
bride, was best man. Miss Anna
Johnson served as bridesmaid and
Gotfried Moberg as groomsman.
The bride was gOWned all in white
and carried carnations which was also
the color of the dress worn by the
brides maid while her maid of honor
wore a pale blue silk, and the groom
was in conventional black.
After the ceremony a reception was
held at the new and spacious home Of
G. G. Ecklund III that town and the
125 guests present were admirably
entertained by the hospitable host
and hostess, Mr.. and Mrs. Chas.
Ecklund.
Many valuable and useful presents
were bestowed upon the happy couple
and considerable sum of money was
given to Rev Rosander, the groom,
who is also pastor of the Swedish
Lutheran church there. Rev. and
Mrs Rosander will make their home
at Prentice, and left on Friday for
that place.
