SIM-DRAPER NUPTIALS.

Popurar Young Couple United at Osnabroek
Yesterday Forenoon Number of Langdon
People Attend-Rev. Sykes, of Milton
Adjusts the Matrimonial Moose.
At noon yesterday at the Albion hotel,
Osnabrock, occurred the wedding of
Druggist Geo. Draper and Miss Frances
r. Sim, the eldest daughter of Landlord
Sim and wife. The ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. D. j.. Sykes, OF Milton,
invited guests to the number of upwards
fifty witnessing the uniting of these
two popular young people OF the Brock.
The groom, prior to establishing himself
in business at Osnabrock couple of
years ago, was with the drug store of Dr.
E. I. Donovan and is generally we'll
known by Langdon people. The bride
is one of Osnabrock's favorites and with
her parents has made that town her
home since the time of the early day
residents, the family being highly re-
spected and extensively acquainted
throughout the county. A wedding
dinner following the ceremony did full
credit to the cuisine of the house. The
couple left in the afternoon for trip east,
expecting to be at home to their friends
at Osnabrock after Juns 1st.

miniature of course, of the elbow out
that had been gotten up for his benefit
over week ago, at which time he was in
Portland, Ore. At the time that Seg't
Weiland's company received their orders
to return home they were with Customs
expedition and had advanced three
days on the expedition that eventually
led to Aguinaldo's capture. Like
most of the soldiers he does not
think much of the Philippine islands as
possessions. He says the Anglo-Saxons
do not understand the Aslatic nature
and that the Americans can never educate
those natives to our way of thinking.
The millions that this government will
expend in sending teachers and Ameri-
can books to the islands will be largely
wasted. He thinks the capture of Aguin
aldo will not end the guerrilla warfare,
no matter what is now said. The Filipino
nature is not easily changed, and they
really want to run their government,
such as 1t 1s, in their own way.

Rates on fire insurance premiums go
up. Langdon policy holders, and in
fact all North Dakota towns, will be
affected by the raise. Or residence
property the rate Of premiums may be
expected TO go up about 30, per cent.
In business portions of the city greater
stringency will be exercised on the part
of companies doing business, the policies
will include the three-fourth loss clause
slso the ono requiring property owners
to keep complete inventory of stock
that their policies are supposed to pro-
tect. During the past year or two these
objectional clauses had been stricken
out. Tho fact of their being reinetated is
looked upon as an imposition and a
nuisance. 1t is hardly likely that the
new business OF the companies here will
reach tho figures that represent the
insurance now being carried.

CITY COUNCIL.

Monday Nights Meeting Decided on Max
ing Extensive Improvements on Streets
Besides Transacting Large Amount of
Routine Business and Allowing Bills.
At the regular meeting of the city
council Monday night the first business
taken up after the reading of the
minutes of the previous meeting was the
naming of standing committees for the
ensuing year, the only changes made
being the placing of NJ Kelly's name in
the stead of retiring alderman, NJ. L.
Sullivan, and the naming Of the council
as whole to act on the granting of
bailding permits within the fire limits as
laid down in Ordinance No. %.
Chief of Police Hunters report showed
that the privilege of using the city dump
ground bad been abused during the
winter by the leaving there unburied
the bodies OF number Of dead horses.
The owners are being looked up and in
all cases wtere it is possible will be made
to bear the expense of having them
buried. He also reported having notifi-
ed several parties along Third street to
have their awnings raised to height of
seven and one-half feet, required by
ordinance.
A petition from residents OF north
Fourth and Pine streets for the grading
and putting in of culverts, giving the last
named street proper drainage through to
the coulie was read and the petitioners
given to understand that action would be
taken in the matter at special meet
ing on the Goth inst.
Alderman Reid asked the council on
the behalf of residents on Second street
to the have Oak street, between Second
and Third streets graded up this sum-
mer. Property owners down that way
have waded through mud every spring
and the street is impossible after heavy
rains at all times.
The city treasurer's salary, which in
the past has been regulated by sum
equal to 2 per cent Of the monies collect.

present this figure amounts to about
the same as paid in past years, but will
mean future saving in city expenses.
The officers of the fire department
were notified that the council would pay
fremen for the attending OF practice
drills during the months from May to
August inclusive, drills to be held twice
month and at least half the company to
turn out. Each fireman will receive Is

amount being paid for services performed
