head of the lakes during the month
has been 2,496, sol tons as against
2.401, $50 for August Of last year. an
excess of 95, PSI tons in favor OF tho
present years record. August, how.
ever, marked the passing Of the ten
million point in ore shipment from
the Duluth district. The total for the
present season. including the business
transacted yesterday amounts to
10, 16l JAP tons. The record up to
September of last year was 9,S47, $3.50,
so there is still an excess for the sea
son of 313, 1855.
A feature OF the present months
business comes, however, In the rec
ord-smashing which has been INDUCED
in by the Duluth, Missabe & Northern
road. Last month the road was well
in the lead, but during August 1t not
only outstripped its competitors, but
passed the coveted ten million ton
mark, towards which all Of the roads
have been striving.
The road hauled 1920 tons during
August, thus exceeding its July record
by 107, 900 tons, and far outstripping
the other two roads. The record Of
shipping 1000, 900 tons of ore from any
one dock in a month has not before
been equalled.
Following is detailed statement OF
the shipments for the mouth and the
total shipments so far this season, the
figures for the last day of the month
being estimated:
Sept. l. Sept. l.

the Great Northern where there is
slight falling off. The movement in
August for the last two years is as
follows:

e About Wedding Invitations. q

AS the October wedding season draws
near there is much jotting down with
pencils and much scratching of pens,
for lists must be made out and envel-
opes must be addressed, and when we
run our thumbs critically over our
''wedding invitation" and say, "pretty
aren't they" we seldom appreciate the
care and thought that have been given
to the apparently small, but really very
important matter of invitation"
Nothing, indeed, is more indicative of
the gentility of family than the care
and taste shown in the issuing of we'd
ding invitations, formal or informal.
Formal wedding cards must be en-
graved. If one cannot afford this bit
of extravaganza necessary to launch
new family into the social world,
then he makes the wedding and the in
Sitations informal.
Better by far give an informal little
home wedding, or a church wedding
without guests, with the informaities
well observed, than to attempt to he
formal and to find oneself unable 20
conform to the most important formal
ties.
The wedding stationery is the first
consideration, and by no means a small
one. Invitations should be sent out
from two to three weeks before the
wedding When sent out of town they
should be sent fully three weeks before
the date set for the wedding.
If the wedding is at the church, there
Is the church invitation; if it is a large
one there should be a card of adms.
sion. A formal church wedding is US
ually followed by home reception,
and there must be another card for
that. One must have at home cards
for those who are invited to the we'd
ding, these cards may be enclosed with
the wedding invitation, but announce
ment cards must be sent to friends who
were not invited to the wedding. To
be in good form all of these cards must
be engraved. Styles in cards and n
engraving change so constantly that it
is well to leave the matter of form and
paper with the engraver, though mod
est styles In both paper and engraving
are always In best taste.
Stationery for formal weddings may
thus easily be disposed of, but informal
Wcuuhg lnNitatiohs are more trouDle-
some.
The following form may be used for
written invitation to a wedding,
which approaches the formal:
Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Gordon Norton
request the pleasure of your company
at the marriage of their daughter, Mar
garet Isabelle. to Mr.. Joseph Franklin
Burton, on Wednesday evening, Octo.
Der the fourteenth, at eight o'clock.
1000 Beechwood avenue.
II is customary to omit the word
miss when the cards are sent out by
the parents of the bride, but this must
not be done if the invitations are issued
by the brides sister, brother or friends.

Boy Rang False Alarms

Charles Stock, ten years of age, Of
1880 DeSmet avenue, was arrested in
the Franklin school by Dctec-
tive Mcdonald on the charge OF
turning in the many fire alarms that
have recently been sprung at the Ham
ilton and Olive streets alarm box. The
boy admitted his guilt
Young Stock was taken to the city
Jail and locked in the boys ward unta
police court convened. He was fearful
and, while admitting that he had start
ed the alarms, said other small boys
of the neighborhood were equally guilty
In police court this afternoon the
case against Stock was continued until
tomorrow in order to give his parents
chance to be present. The boys
fatherin-la law is blacksmith.
For three weeks the fire department
has been annoyed by false alarms com
ing in from this box.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1903-10-07

name of her former husband should be
used. If the young woman who is to
be married is an orphan, with no one
, to issue the invitations for her, the IN
vitation should read thus:
The pleasure of your company is .e-
quested at the marriage of Miss
Margaret Isabelle Norton
etc.
If the wedding is so small that only
the families are invited, the invitations
may be issued verbally, or in case the
brides parents are unacquainted with
the relatives of the groom, the mother
of the bride should write little note,
which may read as follows:
My Dear Mrs. Burton:
Mr.. Norton and myself wish you and
Mr.. Burton to be present at the mar
riage OF our daughter, Margaret, to Mr.
Joseph Franklin Burton, which will
take place Wednesday evening, Octo
Der the fourteenth, at eight o'clock
Dinner will be served at eight thirty
Cordially yours,
MARY NORTON.
If the bride wishes to invite personal
friends very informally she may write
letters stating the date and time of the
wedding. and if the friend lives out Ct
town, she should name the day upon
which the guest will be expected to ar
rive.
When the ceremony at the church
is attended by no guests, and it is
the desire of the brides parents to
give a wedding dinner, formal invi-
tation may be engraved, or if the din
ner be informal, the following may
be written:
The pleasure of your company is
requested at the wedding dinner
of Miss Margaret Isabelle Norton
and
Mr.. Joseph Franklin Burton,
Wednesday evening, October the four
teenth, at $3.50 o'clock.
1000 Beechwood avenue.
When invitations to the ceremony
or to wedding dinners are written,
they should be done by the best pen
man available, and should be written
upon the best note paper, preferably
white or cream white.
