a. m, Miss Pearl Hall of slletz and Mr. Geo.
ii. limbaugh of Toledo, Rev L. IL. Bryant of
Sheridan, Or, officiating.
OF this important event THE LEADER
is unable to give detailed account,
owing to the enforced absence of the
society editor.
The bride, a sister OF Warren and
Walter Hall, the well known Siletz mer-
chants, is entirely worthy of the high
esteem in which she is held by large
circle of friends. The groom has held
the foremanship and played the devil
generally in The LEADER office during
the past two and one. half years, For
this reason we prefer to let his other
fellow-citizens hand him the bouquets
which he richly merits.
Immediately after the ceremony Mr..
and Mrs limbaugh came to Toledo and
departed OIL the morning train for
Portland to visit the Fair. They will
return the fore part of next week and
be at home in the DR.. Thayer property
on the north side.

ceiving the honors for winning the
contest they may well be proud, for
they have had to play hard to
win. Great credit is due to the Guards
in their persistent efforts to check
the winning wave which has followed
the Invincibles. And especially may
the Guards be proud of the last game
which at first ended in a tie of 4 to 4.
In playing it off the first score fell to
the Invincibles thus giving them not
only the game but also the whole con-
test The game was well attended
and no little enthusiasm was display
ed. Both teams had their 'rooters' !,
and there was one continual cheer
from beginning to end. The games
will be missed by all; for they have
not only been an enjoyment but a de-
cided benefit to the students.

spring Mr.. Bickel went east of the
mountains to look for a new location
for home and decided on Ephrata,
where he bought farm. It is with
great regret that we see the depart
ure of this family who have lived
here so many years. No family would
be more missed than they. Mr..
Bickel has always been a good citi-
zen, identified in all movements for
the Improvement of the village and
community. He is an active member
Of the Odd Fellows fraternity and he
will be much missed from the local
lodge, while the places of his charm
ing family can never be filled with
the young people Of the village. In
the schools and in all social gather
ings they always took prominent
places. A large number of people
gathered on the wharf Tuesday to
bid them goodbye and good luck.
The teachers and pupils of the
school went in body, while the fol-
lowing young people accompanied
them as far as Bellingham: Miss
Louise Hastings, Mr.. Leo Rudow,
Mr.. Wesley Langell and Mr.. George
Whiteley.

well received by the Indians, who
listened eagerly to the white man S
message, delivered through inter-
prefers.
These camp meetings we're often
the scene Of great spiritual awaken
ings, accompanied by physical dem
onstrations that would seem strange
to US in these later days, but among
the converts Of these days were
some of the choicest Indian charac-
ters, of whom many haye passed to
their reward, while others are still
active wofkerstin the church.
Among the worthies are such
names as Peter Marksman, Dan
i'll Asher, Asa Spruce, Geo. Bedell,
james Holiday, William Owen and
others. The work of the camp
meetings has been uniformity sue
cessful, resulting every year in the
conversion of large numbers, while
the inhuerct of these gather
engs has been felt in every Indian
mission throughout the peninsula.
The greatest difficulty experienced
by the missionaries is the influence
of the American saloon. 1t seems
as thanUh nuanv caloon kaapars
in the vicinity Of these Indian set
Elements, make it a large part Of
their business to keep the Indian
down, taking from him both money
and morals, and Offering every possi-
BILE inducement to him TO drink.
A stringent law, making it crime
for any white man to sell liquor to
an Indian would, speedily help TO
better the social, moral and relig-
