CULL-POLHAMUS.
Quiet Wedding of WelI-Known and Popular Couple at Catholic
 Parsonage.

At seven o'clock Saturday evening, November 23rd, at the Catholic parson- age, by the Reverend NJ. Vardermae- sen, Mir. Travis Tilfred Gull and Miss Georgiana Virginia Polhanus, daugh- ter of Captain and Mrs. Isaac Polha- mus, of Yuma, Arizona.
 Mir. Henry Gandolfo and Miss Jennie Polhamus, the brides sister, were the witnesses.
 Only the immediate family of the bride witnessed the ceremony.
 The bride was beautifully attired in white crepe de chine princess dress, which was very artistic creation. The waist was nearly covered, and the lower edge deeply bor,iered with con- ventionalized chrysanthemums, formed of the tiniest tueks, and white chenille, all done by hand. The yoke was made of applique lace and the elbow sleeves bordered with the same. Long, white kid gloves and pale-blue velvet hat, with magnifcent ostrich plume of the same color, completed the costume.
 The bride carried a large bouquet of white rose-buds tied with sat in ribbon.
 Immediately after the ceremony the party returned to the residence of the brides parents, where light refresh ments were served and the hours were spent in social converse until near the time for the arrival of the train. The bride then donned her traveling eos tume-a navy-blue jacket suit, with beautiful hat, gloves, bag, and all the little accessories just matching it in color-a cup of coffee and light break fast was oerved, and nearly the whole party accompanied the happy couple to the train, where, with parting shower of rice, they left them in possession of the drawing-room of the Pullman that had been previously engaged.
 They will remain on the coast some weeks, perhaps going as far north as Portland. On their return they will settle down to housekeeping in Yuma.

 Several have hauled loads of pump kins to Yuma for Thanksgiving day.
 Mir. Epperson was in Yuma this last week. He intends to put in barley crop.
 MT. Molina is preparing ground for a barley crop. His son. Miguel, has re- turned to his work at Fl Centro.
 Mir. De Berry has threshed the crop of milo maize on Mir. Abbo,t's ranch.
 Mrs. Miguel Molina was in Yuma last week visiting Miss Marcia Town send.
 MT. Snow and family attended the Gentry Bros. show on Monday.
 The roads to the lower valley are very much improved.
 MT. A. E. Johnson has put several horses on the levee work.
 The time for the election of officers of the Water Users Association is near at hand. The people of the lower val ley are wondering just what the result will be. Every honest effort made by the people of the lower valley to secure water in the gravity ditches has been held up to scorn and ridicule by the present paid officers. One year ago the president of the w. U. A. was elected by seven per cent of the voters, and so arduous have been his duties that he has been compelled to spend most of his time upon the streets of Yuma and in writing schoolboy produc- tions for publication and for his own ediIication. His speech at the time Garfield was here was so elaborate and weighty in thought that when deliver ing it he was compelled to pause-that awful pause!-ye gods and men! let's not try his mental equilibrium further. Must we pay him thousand year for this effort and be responsible for his mental unbalancing? There are other men who will do the work for less and not have to test their strength, to the chagrin and horror of all Let us elect man who has some appreciation of the dignity of the office and who is mentally capable of. performing the duties of such position.

PROSPEROUS SCHOOLS s
Superintendent Godfrey Pays Officia
 Visit to Northern Districts.

County School Superintendent J. H. Godfrey returned Monday evening from an official trip of inspection to the schools in the northern districts of the county, taking twelve days in complet- ing the circuit. coming and going by way of Phoenix.
 He visited Wendendale, Harqua Hala, Vicksburg, Quartzsite and Ehr- enberg, and generally speaking, found everything to his satisfaction. There is no teacher at present at either Ehr- enberg or Vicksburg, though teachers have been employed and these schools will start in few days under the most favorable conditions. The schooIhouse at Ehrenberg is equipped with new furniture, modern and complete in ev- cry way.
 Wendendale is very fortunate in having an edlcational friend and pub lie spirited citizen, Mr. Otis E. Youpu. who has loaned to the district, free of all charges, one of the finest school rooms in the territory. The success of this school for the past two terms may be largely credited to Mr. Younq's wife, who has been clerk of the school board during that period and has taken great pride in maintaining high standard for the school.
 The schools at the other places men, toned are all running smoothly and will compare favorably with those of other communities in any of the states.
 Yuma county may well be proud of her educationS- institutions, and of their management, for they rank with the best and are constantly improving.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable For d great many years doctors pro- nounced it local disease and prescrib- ed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurabe. Science has proven catarrh to be constitutional disease and therefore requires constitu- tional treatment. Halls catarrh Cure. manufactured by F. J.

ONE WOMAN'S
 EXPERIENCE
How Health In After Years
 May Be Safeguarded.
DR WILLIAMS PILLS A BOON
 TO ALL WOMEN
Used to Keep the Blood Rich and Pure They Will Prevent Much
 Suffering and Subsequent Misery.

As a woman approaches the age of 40 or thereaboutS, she should pay par tlcular attention to her health. The hard work, which she may have been excitement of her daily life should be lessened or avoided as much as possi- ble. As her health after she passes this time will depend in large meas ure upon 1t, every woman owes 1t to herself to build up her health during these years. It is absolutely neces- sary that the blood be made pure and rich, thereby enabling all the organs of the body to perform their work reg ularly. For this purpose pr Williams Pink Pills have long been recognized as the standard medicine, because of their great blood building and tonic properties:
 The case of Mrs Hannah A. Lozier, of 1151 Michigan Ave, Detroit, Mich. l, we'll illustrates what has has just been said. Mrs Lozier is member of the Auxiliary of the Masonic Engineers and of the Pullman Relief Corps and has held high office in each. The authenticity of her statement may be absolutely relied upon. She says:
 s'I began taking pr Williams Pink Pills about four years ago, after 1 had been suffering for some years from dizzy spells and nervousness which were brought oD by overwork. 1 tried several medicines without help and all the time became more irritable, nerv- ous and weak. At times I had no ap- petite and could eat nothing. At tn- tervals of every two or three days, my heart seemed to rise up in my throat and l would have to lie down until the feeling passed away. I also had dull aching pains under my right shoulder and across my back. When looked up would see black spots. Occasionally I would become so dizzy that l had to steady myself to keep from falling.
 "I read that pr Williams Pink Pills were a blood purifier and builder. l decided to try them. After had talk en them a short time the dizzy spells became less frequent and finally stopped. I took them until seven boxes of the pills stopped the dizzy spells. I was entirely we'll and l now feel ike new person altogether"
 Dr Williams Pink Pills are adapted for diseases due to impure blood and shattered nerves. They are invaluable in anBmia, rheumatism, after-e effects of the grip and levers and in sick head aches, dizziness, nervousness, neural gia, and even partialOparalysis sand To- comotor ataxia.
 A valuable booklet entitled "Plain Talks to Women" will be sent free, in a sealed envelope, upon request, to any woman interested.
 pr Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on re- ceipt of price, soc per box, six boxes for S2 50, by the pr Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y.
