Wednesday evening at $3.50 in St.

c. P. Burnett, united in marriage Mr..
Otto L. Hanson and Miss Edith Staser.
The wedding was attended by only the
immediate relatives and a few select
friends Of the groom from Spokane. r..
]. Gleason acted as best man and Miss
Jessie Votaw charmingly waited upon
the bride. The interior of the Episcopal
church was beautiful with bank of ferns
and evergreens from pulpit to pew. After
the ceremony the party proceeded to the
Staser residence on College hill which
was beautifully decorated and resplen-
dent in myriad Japanese lanterns and
colored lights. where all were entertained
until the west bound passenger carried
the young couple away on an extended
honeymoon trip touching Puget Sound.

Many gifts were showered upon them
especially some beautiful cut glass and
handsome silver set the gift of various
members of the Spokane Athletic Club
of which Mr.. Hanson is director and very
popular member. He is superintendent
of the Northern Pacific Irrigation Co.
with headquarters at Kennewick where
they will reside.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Clinton Staser of this city having
resided here for the past eight years and
by her gracious personality won host
of friends and been popular society
leader. The groom is not so well known
but bears best references as a thorough
gentleman and the union will doubtless
prove that old quotation, 1.-TWO souls
with but a single thought" and that
thought might lead on through this
worlds vain mask.

1 second and the record for The race by IA
seconds. She displayed speed and game
ness and was the first Of her sex to win

but Burns never stopped riding and soon
Gunnre was neck and neck with Old Eng
land, then a head in front and increasing
her lead, Gunhre reached the winning line
two lengths to the good.
Articulate's splendid race led to an offer
