WEDDING BELLS
Elizabeth M. TAFT, Former
Sank Centre Young Lady,
and a General FaVorite,
is Led to the MARI
age Altar.

Cards have been received by the
many friends in this city, announcing
the marriage of Elizabeth M. TAFT to
George A. Edgar.
The wedding occurred in Los
Angeles, California, at the home of
the brides brother, Mr.. William TAFT.
The. ceremony was performed by Rev.
Mr.. Soper who was for many years
pastor of the Congregational church
at Alexandria, Mimi, and now pastor
of the church in Los Angeles. Several
old time Sank Centre friends were
present at the wedding which was a
very pretty one.
The bride was the recipient of many
lovely presents from friends in her
new home in the land of flowers and
was not forgotten by her friends in the
land of snow. Her friends here are of
such a character that no amount OF
cold can make them anything but
warm and true. So 1855
Miss TAFT grew from. little girl to
wOmanhood here in Sank Centre, re-
ceived her education in our schools,
graduating with honors. For a
number of years she taught in the
public schools here and was by all
odds the best primary teacher ever
employed. Children could not help
loving her no more than could her
older friends. She is a woman OF
sterling qualities of mind and heart,
fitted to grace the home as its queen,
fitted to become the wife and help
mate of her chosen husband, who is
to be congratulated upon his choice,
and upon his success in winning such
| bride.
Mr.. George A. Edgar was born in
Sank Centre, and is brother of Mrs.
DR.. Rich of this city. He was a
school-mate and a class-mate of his
bride in their early school days here.
He is a fine christian man and one
whom all are glad to have become the
husband of Lizzie TAFT.
After the wedding and few days al
the beach, the happy pair left fol-
their future home in Long Leaf, La.
stopping on the way for a brief visit
with Mr.. Edgar's parents.
A host of loving friends extend the
truest and heartiest good wishes fol
their future happiness.

DIFFERENT VIEWS OF MARRIAGE.

In Russia OId-Maios nhood Is Consid-
cred a Misfortune.
In most countries where civiliza-
ton is somewhat backward marriage
is apparently regarded as the neces-
sary fate of every woman. This is so
much the case az Russia that there,
when the parents of girl see her
getting on towards Jid-maidenhood
without any PROSPECT. of marriage,
they take her abroad for a time. At
ter a year or two she will reappear
among her old friends as a widow,
and though they may suspect that her
late lamented husband never, existed
outside the imagination of those who
invented him, yet the fiction is useful
in giving her cortain status in soci-
ETY. and enaD!'aF to avoid the NOR

girls are s reverted from mar

DEGREES that a woman who marries
foreigner shall not only lose what
property she may happen to have, but
shall also become incapable of inherit

rcnounce their birthrights for loves
sake; but as rule the charms of pen
niless damsels are not sufficient for
men to desire them for wives, and
therefore many of them are doomed to

GREAT NORTHERN WRECK
Fireman Peter Neutzling of
st. Cloud has both Legs
Broken.

There was a rear-end collision
between two cattle trains on the Great
Northern road on Tuesday morning at
about 6:45, on what is known as
Osakis Hill. Aside from the injuries
to Mr.. Neutzling and the killing of a
number of cattle, the damage was
confined to the wrecking of three or
four cars.
The details of the accident as nearly
as can be ascertained from railroad
and other sources are as follows: The
cattle train was being run in two
sections, and the first section stopped
on the big hill near Osakis to fix a
hot-box. Before a fagman could get
far enough out to warn them, the
second section with Casper Mehren as
engineer and Peter Neutzling as fire.
man came down the hill in the fog
and did not see the rear lights of the
standing train until too late to stop.
The engine crashed into the caboose
of the standing train, and four cars
were smashed up and a number of
cattle killed.
Whether Engineer Mehren and Fire
man Neutzling jumped, or just how
the latter got his injuries is not
known.
In the caboose of the standing train
several stockmen were riding, but it
is supposed they received warning in
time to jump, as none of them were
hurt.
The line was blocked until about
two O'Clock in the afternoon.

Internationally.

A party Of rowdies greatly disturbed
the party given at the home of J. A
Norris Tuesday evening, by ringing
the door bell, rapping on the windows
singing coarse songs, and even going
so far as to throw corn stalks in at the
door, and all this after the host and
hostesses had repeatedly asked then
to stop. Things have come to a pretty
pass when boys from respectable
families commit such ungentlemanly
deeds. Perhaps we need a reform
school instead of high school.

Republican Candidate for Nomination

Fletcher or Mr.. Fletcher, the people
of that city would look askance and
puzzled, but if he should inquire for
"Uncle Loren," every man, woman,
and child would know who was
meant.

Vernon, Kennebec County, Me-; was
educated in public schools and Maine
Wesleyan Seminary, Kents Hill, Me-;
