witnessed a more beautiful cere-
mony, than was performed last
night, when Rev, G. N. N. Fergu-
son, pastor of the Methodist church
united in marriage Miss Mai Fare
Works of this city and MIR. John
Willis, of Hugo, !. T. In the page
antry, with which men and women
like to surround these solemn
rites, the wedding was perfect.
The bride, popular from her girl
hood in this city, was never more
lovely, and the groom, though not
so we'll known here, was, by the
freemasonry of all the world loves
a lover" the favored friend of all
who made his acquaintance. The
girl friends, with their escorts,
completed picture of youth, beau
tY and high hope.
Long before the arrival of the
wedding party, the church was
thronged. The wedding colors,
green and white, had been elabor-
rately used in the hangings which
made a secluded nook of the choir
alcove for the musicians. Potted
plants, palms and festoons of smil-
ak made setting of rare beauty.
In front of the hangings was a
floral horse shoe secured to the
sides and ceiling by long streamers
of white ribbon. The section of
the church, in front of the alcoYe
were set apart with festoons of
smilax, for the relatives of the
bride and groom.
At half past eight, Mrs. Horace
Gooch at the piano and Miss Mamie
Trigg with violin accompaniment,
struck the sweet clear notes of
"All For You" For half an hour
they rendered selections from
Cavalleria Rusticana, II Trovatore,
and others. At nine o'clock the
ushers, spread streamers of white
canvass down the aisles to the
vestibule and the musicians struck
into the opening strains of the we'd
ding march from Lohengrin. Then
preceded by the ushers, two by
two Messrs, Terry Thompson, W.
A. Smith, B. G. D, Bynum, George
Works, r. P. Eanoey and W E.
Freeman, the groom entered on the
arm of the best man, Mr.. Hughes,
The ushers arranged themselves in
semi-circle and waited the coming
of the bridesmaids, Misses Kate
Williams, Bernice Russell, Jean
Blackburn, Florde Ware, Lutte
Wood and groom's sister, Miss
Willis, followed by the bride and
Maid of Honor, Miss Trulie Works,
The bridesmaids ranged in front
of the ushers, the groom met the
bride at the head of the aisle, and,
standing beneath the great floral
horse shoe, while the musicians
rendered softly, The Angels
Serenade," they spoke the words,
before the Rev. Ferguson, that
made them man and wife. The
musicians then started the trump
liant strains of Mendelssohns wed =
ding march and the bridesmaids, on
the arms of the ushers led the
party down the aisle, and out Of
church, where carriages we're in
waiting to convey the party 10 the
brides home.
COSTUMES OF THE WEDDING PARTY.
The bride wore a princess gown
of white radium silk, over taffeta
with lace. The veil edged with
lace, was caught at the brow with
orange blossoms and swept in
filmy folds over her shoulders to
the floor.

ly the telegraph instrument began to
click very rapidly, As the instru.
ment did not cease nor the agent re.
turn, the old man became impatient.
He had only an indistinct notion of
the telegraph and telephone Step

said:
"The agent is not here, SO please

white carnations and lilies of the
valley. The Maid of Honor, Miss
Trulie Works, wore white organdie
with lace ruffles and wide green
girdle, she wore wreath of white
carnations and carried boquet of
sweet peas. Miss Willis, white or
candle with lace and green girdle
and wore wreath of smilax.
Miss Russell, white chiffon or

Miss Williams, white organdie
with a lace waist and tucked skirt;
Miss Blackburn, white lowered
organdie with ruffles; Miss Ware,
white over silk, with lace insertion
in the skirt; Miss Wood, princess
gown.
All the brides maids wore wide
green girdles add wreaths of smil-
AK. The brides favors to the
brides maids, were gold hat pins,
engraved M. w. The ushers wore
evening suits and white gloves.
After the ceremony, the brides
parents gave delightful home re-
ception to the bridal party and the
young people friends of the bride.
The wedding colors were used
throughout the house, in white
streamers and festoons of green.
Over the doorway from the recep-
ton hall was a large W in white in
cadesdent lights cleaning out from
heart of smilax. In the punch
room streamers of white, intertwin-
ed with smilax, united in a beauti-
full silk shade in the center of the
room; under which was the punch
table, presided over by Miss
Juanita Travis.
On tables around this room were
the brides presents. In the dining
hall were festoons Of smilax united
at the center in a white bell over
laid with roses, and in the center
of the table underneath was the
handsomely decorated bridal cake,
During the evening music was dis
cursed, which we'll fitted the laugh
ter, congratulations and high spir-
its of the party. The refreshments
for the evening were brides cake
and ices, the latter in the form of
brides roses, in the wedding oolors.
Near the close of the evenings
pleasure, the bride cut the cake,
and after her each girl in turn tried
her fortune for the hidden good
luck pieces. Miss Lutte Wood
captured the ring, which, according
to the old yet favorite legend,
makes her the next bride. Miss
Leila Maynard became the owner
of the needle, and, according to the
same ola legend, will spend her life
in single blessedness. 1t was
late hour when the many guests
gave their last congratulations,
bes' wishes and farewells.
The wedding gifts received by
young couple speak much for their
esteem among their friends. Spark
ling cut glass, hand painted china,
art silverware and costly bric-a-
brac, with the many other gifts of
handsome furniture and rugs, will
help the young bride in making her
home, Mr.. and Mrs. Willis left to-
day via the Denver for their future
home in Hugo, |. r. Mr.. Willis is
a prominent young lawyer Of that
city and has host of friends who
will give him and his bride a hearty
welcome to their new home.

The Man with the Fake Votes.

What may be termed, "+he
man with the fake votes is d
man who thrusts himself upon
the people, and makes way to
political prominence through a
sea OF blood" as Wendell
Phillips would say.
This man seeks office for his
own selfish agrandizement, caring
little for the intrest Of the people
from whom he gets his flee.
He is a dangerous character,
and there are better men for his
place than he-he carries a peck
ct full Of "fake votes (SS$S) and
thinks as the English statesman
said, Every man has his price"
He has a Lotto allies or mooch-
ers, who do his trivial bidding or
stealing-he is corruptionist
and an obstructionist-h9 is called
schrewd SO long as he apparent
ly succeeds in robbing the state
and society of their justice-a
square deal.
He purchases the counterfeit
votes at reduced rates and sells
them to the highest bidder for
cash-the Office.
When he gets the Office he says
| paid them for this office-I must
have returns.Im a SPECTATOR,
I'll sell the office, the people and
the whole darn thing for cash.
This is the man with the fake
votes beware of him ere he is
elected for the tree beareth fruit
o. its kind.
