knot.
WOODS CRAwLEY = Married,
at the Presbyterian church in
Keytesville, Thursday, Feb. 10,
1902, at high noon, by Rev.
Franc Mitchell, Theodore Wood,
Jr., and Miss Dell Crawley, both
of this city.
The foregoing announcement
will be Of interest to a large ma
jority Of our readers, by reason
of the prominence and long resi-
dence in this neighborhood of
the families of the contracting
parties, Mr.. Wood being a son
of Oscar Wood, prominent far
mer of this community, while the
bride is a daughter of that Mes
tor of the Charlton county bar,
Hon. j. c.. Crawley. At the wish
of the bride no formal invitations
were issued, but the entire COM
munity in which she has spent
her whole life was made welcome
to witness the interesting cere-
mony which was to change the
current of that life. The windows
of the beautiful little church
were darkened, and the interior
brilliantly lighted. The decora-
tons were quite elaborate and
tasteful. AS the hour drew near
the officiating minister entered
the house and occupied con-
venient place at the front. AL
most Immediately after Miss Err
nestine Smith was conducted by
one of the ushers to the pulpit
alcove, and vanished in a bower
of flowers, screened by floating
curtains of lace; and almost i'm
mediately the familiar strains of
Mendelsohn's wedding march
began to float in from her hiding
place and fill the house. At this
signal the doors flew open, and
the bridal party began to enter
the edifice. They were conduct
ed by the ushers, Messrs. Homer
P Mitchell and Henry Egan, the
one leading the gentlemen down
| one aisle, while the other pre-
ceded the ladies down the other.
The bridegroom was supported
by Lewis Harmed, and followed
by w. A. Crawley. In like man.
ner the bride leaned upon the
| arm of her sister, Miss Bessie
Crawley, and was followed by
Miss Grace Moore. The dress of
the bride was of green cloth,
trimmed in black velvet and
green lace, with hat to match,
and her attendants wore cream
silk waists and black skirts.
The costume of the gentleman
was conventionally correct. Ar
riving at the area in front of the
pulpit by a graceful movement
this company formed a crescent,
with the contracting parties in the
center, and as the music changed
to a slow and soft meditation
the minister arose, and, after a
few earnest words of address,
pronounced the vows which ce-
mented the union of these young
lives. The bridal party then re-
tired from the church, led by the
newly married couple, Mr.. Har-
ned supporting Miss Crawley,
and Mr.. Crawley Miss Moore,
and the friends who had taxed
the capacity of the house to its
utmost MANY of them nroceeded

It Is to be hoped that the incom-
Ing administration may devise
ways and means for improving the
methods heretofore utilized In the
management of the street depart
ment. BY this we mean to cast no
reflection on the present admins
tration, but to question the eff
cheney OF the system heretofore
employed, not only by this but
also by preceding administrations.
Quite large sum of money Is each
year appropriated for street pur-
poses, and It cannot be denied that
a considerable part Of 1t Is
virtually thrown away. Of
course the problem Is a per-
picking one, which Is constantly
under consideration In almost all
municipalities, bat it seems as If
some scheme might be devised by
which greater appreciable returns
from the money expended could be
realized. There Is room for I'm
provement In the matter of street
repairs, and 1t Is a matter which
should, and doubtless will, receive
the earnest attention of the incom-
ing administration. We refer es
pecially to the present salary,
which is SIS per month, of the
street superintendent.
One of the most faithful servants,
as we'll also, as one of the most eff.
fcient the city ever had, is Isaac
Rice. He keeps the streets In the
very best possible condition; they
are always neat and present
an attractive appearance, and
are frequently commented on
by visitors for their tidiness.
The salary of Mr.. Rice Is
but $40 per month, which Is only
a traction over one half of that of
the street superintendent. Hence,
In Our opinion, there Is ample room
to economic In the matter of the
street superintendent salary.
