pALDING-DARLING.

sPALDING-DARLING.
One of the most pleasant social
events which we have noted since
the settlement of our country took
place at the home of MI. and Mrs.
r. s. Spaulding, Thursday, June
9Th at $50 P. NJ, when their daugh-
ter, Miss Mae, was united in mar
rage to Mr.. Albert L. Darling, Rev.
Keller of Brush Lake, officiating.
The house was decorated with white
blossoms with a beautiful bower in
green and white, beneath which the
wedding party took their places. .
Miss Ruby Spalding played the
march as the bride and groom, at
tended by Miss Pearl Darling and
Mr.. Levi Spaulding, entered the
room. After taking their places,
they were joined by Miss Ruby
Spaulding and Nh. Howard Darling
The brides trosseau was a beauti-
full creation in pure white, a selec-
ton from the eastern markets by
the brides uncle. The groom wore
dark blue worsted.
After the ceremony and congrat-
ulations. the guests we're invited to
the dining room where the table
fairly groaned with everything cal
culated to tempt and satisfy an ap-
petite, and everyone who has had
the rare, good pleasure to partake
of the hospitality of this household,
knows Mrs. Spaulding is a very ca
pable one to prepare these things.
The bride and groom were the re-
cipients of many very handsome
and useful presents.
Immediately after dinner, they
departed amid a shower of rice for
"Point No Point !" y, as Mr.. Darling
has artfully christened his bachelor
home, which he had previously put
in readiness for the reception Of
his bride. Mrs. Darling also has a
farm, and with. these a s starters,
armed with lovinghearts apdstrong
Christian characters, we are sure
that success shall crown their every
effort. y4fn i!M - 7l&- ~ Il

Jewell Granberg was clerking in

proprietor and John Hanson.
I. L. Berg made final proof on
his claim in Devils Lake May 22nd.
and has moved his family to Velva
where he is building a large ele-
vator preparatory to the fall trade.
John Ravnass has been enjoying
a visit from his father from South
Dakota. They left here last week
for Fessenden, where John will put
in the summer at carpenter work.
Those black hills, together with
the various losses connected with
the prairie fires last fall, made us
all feel more or less discouraged,
but since the abundant rains and
sunshine this spring have clothed
everything in a coat of green, we
feel more than ever determined
and encouraged to see what. will
grow on the other side of the sod.
