Rarely has social Americus witnessed
more beautiful wedding ceremony,
or one under happier auspices, thar
that of Miss Matte Parramore and Mr..

ceived, everything blending in pei feet
harmony.
The parlors, hall and reception rooms
were handsomely decorated.
Smilax, stately palms and cut flowers
IN sweet profusion lent beauty and fra
GRANGE to the scene. Pronounced ar
tistic skill was observed in the arrange
ment of the floral ornaments and the
wedding was, withal, an ideal one in
this glorious Junetime.
Precisely at $50 the bridal party en-
tered the parlor.
The pretty bride wore a superb
gown of white silk yelling, trimmed
with point lace, and carried shower
bouquet of sweet peas and dainty ferns,
caught with tulle streamers. Surely
bride never appeared more raGiantly
lovely than did this charming young
woman.
Miss Lena Parramore, sister of the
bride and maid of honor, wore COS
tune of silk mouselline, most becom-
ing to her stately beauty. Mr.. Fred
Morgan served as best man of the oc-
casion.
AS Mr.. Bivins received the VOWS of
the young couple soft air rendered
by Miss Galloway, presiding at the
piano, fell as benediction over all.
After congratulations, numerous and
sincere, had been extended, the we'd
ding company was ushered into the
dining room where an elegant and
sumptuous collation. was served The
dining room was decorated in smilax
and sweet peas, and was beautiful
Withal.
The bridal presents were costly and
numerous, embracing finest pieces of
cut glass, silver and other rare gems
of beauty and worth.
This home wedding was notably
beautiful and deeply impressive. The
bride is very handsome and charming
young woman and possesses all those
lovely traits which have endesred her
to many friends. Mr.. Nix is young
man of sterling character and highly
esteemed,
The young couple will soon be sat
home" to their friends at the residence
of Mrs. Tooke on Jackson street.

Russell Saae's Taxes

New York, June 17.-Because Rus
sell Sage made a mistake in the date
On which swearing off" and correc.
tions could be made In taxes, he will
have to meet personal taxes this year
on an assessment of 100000. It
was presumed when Mr.. Sage did not
appear at the tax office for the pur.
pose of swearing off" his assessment
of 100000 before March 1, that he
was willing to allow the increase to &c
unprotected. In past years he has
been assessed for only 100000. The
multimillionaire has sent letter oil
protest to the tax commissioner ex
planning the matter, but the books are

FREED OF PAIN, he
GOES To HIS REST.
Judge S. Montgomery Died
Yesterday.
LONG CAREER HERE IS CLOSED.
After an illness of Years One of Sum
ter's Oldest and Most Honorec
Citizens Passes From Earth to :
Bright Reward Above.

Just as the sun sank to rest Yesterday
at the close of a glorious day in June
there was ended here life alike glo.
rious and filled with golden deeds; and
an honored citizen weary of the lone
journey, lay down to peaceful, perfect
rest which knows no waking until the
serried hosts are called on the Resur.
rection morn.
Thus passed from its tenement oil
clay the spirit of that grand old man,
Seaborn Montgomery.
A gentleman to the manor born. and
of that class the like of which the
world will never know again, he passes
from the stage of strife and sorrow
here to realms of rest on high.
For three score years and ten-lon-
ger, perhaps, than any other citizen
hal Judge Montgomery been identifi-
ed with this section, and the impress
left by his presence is one of exalted
good. He was born in Twiggs county
in 1915, but while yet youth he came
to Schley, then Sumter county, where
he has since resided.
For fifty years, perhaps, he has been
a resident of Americus.
For a long while he was engaged in
the mercantile business here, while al
the same time giving attention to his
large farming interests.
A man of wealth, and possessing all
the attributes of a public spirited citi-
zen, his purse was ever open to any
worthy cause or municipal enterprise.
He gave of his means to the poor and
needy, and many are there who will
hold his name in grateful remem-
brance.
Judge Montgomery was married to
Mrs. Tondee, of Schley county, sever
al children blessing their union. She
passed away several years ago, and at
4 o'clock this afternoon his body will
be placed by hers in the quiet little
cemetery at EllavilIe-an end he had
wished for during the long years of ill.,
ness since she was taken away.
Their happy union in life is now for
ever cemented in death.
Than Judge Montgomery no citizen
of Americus was ever more esteemed
HIS name was the synonym of honor,
honesty, integrity and exalted worth,
and his word was as good as a govern
ment bond to the extent of its obliga.
ton. Few of his kind remain; that type
of Southern fmanhood, noble, grand,
sublime.
Tue deceased was prominent as q
Mason, and Masonic escort will bear
his body to it's last resting place this
afternoon.

A marriage of great interest among q
large circle of friends was that of Miss
Marguerite Olivia Dunn and Mr.. Hugh
Bynro Allison, which occurred yester
day at high noon at the residence of
the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
James B. Dunn, on Jackson street.
And never was a prettier home we'd
ding witnessed here.
The bride is one of Americus' most
attractive and cultured young ladies,
and while having been resident OF
Montgomery several years was none
the less beloved by hundreds here.
The parIors were tastefully decorated
white and gold being the predomina-
ting colors, while marguerites, typical
in their beauty and purity of her whose
name they bore lent to the occasion
the charm of a Marguerite wedding
To the strains of MendeIssohn' 4
Wedding March, rendered by Prof.
Mcneil, the bridal party entered the
parlor at the hour of high noon.
Miss Eddie Belle Dunn, sister of the
fair bride, came first, followed by
Misses Lucille Dunn and Lillian
Lipscomb as first bridesmaid. Miss
Florence Dunn was maid of honor,
while Mr.. Albert Allison, was best man
of the occasion.
When the half circle was formed al
the altar Rev. w, l.. Wootten, of First
Methodist church, solemnized the
marriage rites most impressively, the
ring being used therein.
The BRIDES gown was lovely crea-
ton of white silk tissue, with veil
caught with orange blossoms, while
that of the maid of honor was of blue
tissue. Each carried bouquet of white
and gold marguerites.
Many beautiful and costly gifts at
tested the popularity of the young
couple, not few of these coming from
distant cities.
After the assembled guests had par
taken of a sumptuous wedding feast
Mr.. and Mrs. Allison left upon an ex.
tended trip East. Some time hence
they will return to Montgomery to re-
side at very beautiful home already
being prepared for them there.

APPLIED TO DRINKING
Americas People Cannot Have Water
After Ten O'clock

AFTER u en- y CLOCK
Hereafter, all citizens of Americua
addicted to the reprehensible habit cf
drinking water at the artesian we'll
must not accumulate thirst after 10
p. m. as, by royal edict, the water sup
ply there is to be cut off at that boar.
The flow at the well ceases at 9p. m.
but for fifteen years little spiggos has
been allowed to flow there all night,
affording cool drink of water to any
one wishing it. But to "eut down ex-
penses" and save the wear and tear
on the little iron pipe some Of the
council want this flow of water stop
ped at night, and after 10 p. IN. in flu
ture, no matter how hot the weather
or how badly citizens may want
drink of cool water, they must do with
out, or else break into q store to get it.
Economy is good thing, reasonably
applied, but such picayunish niggard-
ness as this will no doubt meet with
merited condemnation rather than APP
prevail. The water belongs to citizens
of Americus and they should be per-
mitted to have it, pure and in album
dance. All of them here cannot have
ice coolers at home, and this step to
deprive them of cool water during the
long, hot nights of summer is a bit OF
false economy that should not be toll
erated-and will not be by the council.
