church exhumed a box containing
the bones of two infants just inside
Of the sidewalk line on the north
side of the church.
The bones were probably those of
twin children, who passed away
shortly after their birth. The box
containing them were only a foot
below ground, and inasmuch as only
the bones were left, and being in
decayed condition the burial took
place 20 or more years ago.
Undertaken Grapp was given
charge of the remains and placed
them in the cemetery. Old settlers
claim that there were various burials
around the city IN the early days,
and that the remains of these two
infants were among them.
The remains were those of the

JUDGE IS OUT OF 1T
Venerable Judge Weber, After ID Years
of Service, Announces His
Retirement.
Serious Illness of Mrs. Weber, and
Worry over Situation, Causes
Him to Withdraw.

After "a years of service on the
ninth judicial bench Hon. B. F.
Weber has announced that he will
retire on Jan. 1st next, and with the
announcement he notified ,all county
auditors in this district that it was
an order from his court that his
name be removed from the primary
ballot. The order was 'phoned, and
followed up by written notice.
Inasmuch as the order for the
ballots has been placed with the
printers of the several counties it
was necessary in nearly every case
to have a reprint. In this county
over 1000 ballots had been printed
when the order came. Nicollet
county had the work practically
finished. The same is true Of Lyon,
while in Lincoln county only the
work had just commenced. The
auditors and printers all got busy
and ballots will be ready for deliv-
cry to the clerks tomorrow.
AS early as last fall it was doubt
full whether Judge Weber would
again be candidate. He was ex-
tremely reticent on the proposition,
and even announced that he was far
from a decision. Up to few days
before he filed he was in doubt, and
when he made his announcement he
also stated that he would not be-
come an active candidate, but would
leave it to the voters Of the district
who knew him so we'll. Then came
the illness of Mrs. Weber, and this
brought out the following lette r

decorated thruout, the large parlor
showing the clever work of Albert
Trust in the arrangement of autumn
flowers and greenery and the Ella
borate arch in the southwest corner,
where the bride and groom and
their two attendants presented them
selves at the hour of 1920 for the
plighting of the nuptial vows. Miss
Nellie Corbett, sister of the groom,
played lively wedding march while
the bridal party was assembling.
Father Dolphin of st. Stephens
church, Minneapolis, read an i'm
pressive service, using the ring,
and the newly joined parties to the
contract received cordial congratu-
lations as Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Corbett. A well-served luncheon
followed and at a little after noon
the bridal party took carriages for
the train to Minneapolis, where Mr..
and Mrs. Corbett will take up their
residence.
The bride and her attendant, Miss
Mabel Corbett, sister of the groom,
appeared at the altar attired in
white, the brides gown being of
white crepe de chine over taffeta
silk, with applique trimming. Her
going away gown was of navy blue
wool taffeta, with hat and gloves to
match.
Mrs. Corbett was born in the
house from which she was married,
and by her frank and cheerful ways
has endeared herself to young and
old wherever she is known. After
graduating from the Redwood Falls
high school, Miss Pearl completed
the full course at the johnson school
of music and oratory, Minneapolis,
and is consequently not an entire
stranger in the city which is to be-
come her home. Mr.. Corbett is in
business in Minneapolis and has his
home there, but was a summer resi-
dent of Redwood Falls some three
years ago, when he was in charge
of the launches and boats for the
lake park and boat association and
formed the acquaintance which led
to a matrimonial sequel. Mr.. and
Mrs. Corbett journed to Milwaukee

A PLOT THAT PARTLY FAILED.

Last Thursday evening witnessed
the denouement of little plot on
the part of two well-known young
people of this city. The plot was,
to get married without any of the
conventional frills wedding invita-
lions, wedding presents, wedding
marches, showers and functions, rice
and old shoes.
Everything was strictly on the q. t.
The officiating minister, Rev. E. c..
Nicholson, not only was sworn to
secrecy, but kept his VOW. The IL
cense was procured at near the last
moment. and no person outside the
household of Mrs. VIM. Smith, the
brides mother, was "let into" the
harmless conspiracy. Up to a GER
tain point all was we'll. The min
lister and the groom dropped in"
some time before the hour set for
the ceremony $50, on Thursday
evening when Miss Christina Smith
appeared in most becoming gray
travelling suit, and was joined by
Mr.. Walter H. Henzie, the two TAX
ing positions before the officiating
minister, backed by bank of flow
ers and greenery in a corner of the
parlor. The service was simple and
sensible, and was followed by a
wedding collation. that was all that
might be expected from such a
caterer as Mrs. Smith. All was then
in readiness for the trip to the M. &
st. L. depot, and Walter was con-
graduating the party on the success
of their scheme to outwit the rice
throwers. But on reaching the sta
ton a surprise was in store
Redwood band breaking from am
bush and rudely awakening the
young pair from their dream of
triumph, with music galore and a
perfect cyclone of rice throwing.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henzie proceeded on
their way to their destination at

Judge Weber succeeded H. D.
