by H. L. Braun.

Contract Let for $40, 900 Stone Building
by H. L. Braun.
Tne contract has been let by H. T..
Braun for the erection of fine $4,000
stone bath house to occupy the site Of
the present Evans Mud Bath. The
building will have river frontage of
sixty feet with basement and one
story, and eighty-five feet and base
ment two stories high on the street
side, being twenty-five feet wide in the
river portion and thirty five feet in the
street building
Stone from the Evans quarries will
be used in its erection, being cut rough
like the National Sanitarium. The
foundations will be laid in cement on
bed rock and the interior will also be
cemented for sanitary reasons. The
rooms will be nine feet in the clear
and especial attention will be paid to
ventilation. The building will be
heated throughout with modern hot
water plant and arrangements made
to give any kind Of bath.
All the additions to the present bath
house will be removed and the original
little building moved back around the
bend of the river and later used for q
kitchen, so especial attention can be
given to winter bathers, who will have
commodious living rooms provided for
them in the bath house.
Mr.. and Mrs. Braun have spent the
past few winters In the bath houses in
Hot Springs, Ark, but are so firmly
convinced of the superiority Of the
water and climate here that they have
decided to remain this winter and i'm.
prove their property. When finished
they will be able to give 200 baths q
day and will christen the building
with the name by which the groupe Of
springs was known to the Indians
"The Seven Sisters" /"
Work will commence about the
middle of this month.
This is just what Hot Springs needs.
The more and the better bath houses
and other accommodations we get the
more people we will get.

Walker-Dearduf.

A very simple but beautiful wedding
occurred at the Presbyterian church
Saturday morning. The contracting
parties were George Walker, now
manager of the L. Morris Dry Goods
Co., of Rapid City, and Miss Esta
Dearduff, who has grown to young
womanhood here. Ben Potts was best
man and Miss Blanche Turner, brides.
maid. j. P. Frizzell, Leo Dornan and
Roland Kirtley were the ushers. The
church was decorated with masses Of
pink and white carnations sand asters.
At 8:15 to the strains of the Bridal
Chorus from Lohengrin's Wedding
March played by Miss Ella Kirtley,
the bridal party passed down the aisles
of the church, the bride leaning on the
arm of her father and accompanied by
her bridesmaid and the groom accom-
panied by the best man and the ushers.
At the platform the two couples mount
ed the steps and at its center plighted
their troth, sealing their VOWS with the
ring, Rev. 8. L. McAmis officiating.
The large number of friends who
we're present extended most hearty
congratulations as the young couple
passed out and joined in the fun over
the ludicrous dodgers, announcing the
marriage, that we're distributed, and
the sleigh bells, pompoms and wierd
notices that decorated the hack which
bore the happy couple to the home of
the brides parents where a delicious
wedding breakfast was served, covers
being laid for twelve.
The fun reached its height at the
depot where over a hundred young
people gathered who threw rice until
the platform was covered white like
snow and the young couple had enough
in and on their clothes to make them
decidedly uncomfortable.
A committee escorted "Scotty' onto
the water car, solemnly admonishing
him not to fall off then or at any
later period and demanded speech
which was promptly forthcoming and
received with cheers and loud applause
At its close an attempt was made to
immerse "Scotty" through the trap
door on top but his captors had to
finally be content with the sprinkling

Their baggage was grotesquely dec.

descriptions hung from the car

FROM FARMERS PICNIC
TO BIG COUNTY FAIR
Once Gathering Of Fam les, Ii Iia, Now Be-
come the Annual Even. in the Lives Of
the Rural Population

From a farmers picnic. originated
by members OF Pomona Grange and
their families ana friends. the present
Farmers Fair" has now grown Be
leving that q doys outing, after the
hard work Of the spring and summer
months. would bring the farmer and
his family in close touch with his
neiehbor. Pomona Grange conceived
the idea Of holding annually a farm
ers fair This plan was put in vogue
seven years ago, and a gathering has
bcen hell annually since.
at one of these picnics it was sug-
restod that n the future a fair should
be held IN connection with the picnic.
as by that means the farmer might
bring before the public an exhibit of
crops which he had worked so hard
TO bring forth. The proposition met
with the approval of the majority Of
the farmers and for five years there
after a fair was held az the Springs.
and was participated in by nearly
every farmer OF prominence in New
Castle county. At first no prizes were
offered to exhibitors, only ribbons be-
ing given to prize winners AS a
consequence Of this resolve. year after
year the exhibitors became more
numerous. until it was decided TO hold
the fair in the grounds Of the Della
ware Horse Show Association as. ow-
ing TO the conditions at the Springs
It was necessary to separate the oN-
hibits 10 such an extent that the re-
suits did not come up TO expectations.
Further. the fair had grown TO such
proportions that many outside bust
ness houses dealing I'm wares used by
the farmer applied for space and were
desirous Of bringing their goods in
as close touch with the fair proper as
possible. The result OF the efforts OF
Pomona Grange was shown by the
large attendance at Horse Show AS
sociation Park last year. The fair has
grown since then. and the farmers
promise a much better display this
week than thew have ever offered.
