1t was moved and seconded and ordered
that the report be received and published
in the PENIS GROVE RECORD, the Monitor
Register the Elmer Times, the Stand
ard Jerseyman and the Salem Sunbeam,

statement was also ordered printed in
pamphlet form. Mr.. Freas made a no.
ton that the statement should not be
published until the board receives an
itemized statement OF the receipts and
expenditures of the Board of Almshouse
Trustees. The motion was carried. Mr..
Freas then moved that the Clerk be
ordered to notify the Almshouse Trustees
to submit an itemized statement to the
Board of ~treeholders at once, and if not
furnished as requested the county would
take legal steps to procure the statement.
This motion was also carried.

carry the water to the township drain.
Mr.. Batten corroborated Mr.. Dunn's re-
marks, and said the township would be
willing to let the county use the drain.
Upon motion, the matter was left to Mr..
Batten and Mr.. Dunn, with power to
act.

Wells Williams Nuptials.

The following is an extract from an
account of the Wells Williams we'd
ding, published in the Litchfield News
Ledger, and will be of interest to the
many friends of the groom in this city:
On Wednesday evening, April 10,
1907, at the beautiful home of A. Wells
occurred the wedding of one of Litch-
fields most popular young ladies.
At O'Clock the wedding march was
played by Mrs. G.. H. March, and Rev.
Q r. Oaten pronounced the words
which united Miss Edith Wells and DR..
George Williams in holy matrimony.
The bride was lovely in a princess
gown OF chiffon tatfeta, trimmed with
imported Duchess lace, wore a veil,
and carried lilies of the valley. She
was attended by her sister, Miss Lu-
Gle as maid of honor and Miss Anna
Flynn as bridesmaid, both gowned in
pink silk wolfe over taffeta, trimmed
IN hand-embroidered panne velvet.
The groom was attended by Stanley
Wells, brother of the bride.
The groom, S gift to the bride was a
breach Of pearls with diamond center
The bride presented her maid of-honor
with a bracelet and her bridesmaid
with a crescent-shaped breach, set
with pearls.
The ceremony took place in the
south parlor, under a wedding bell OF
white carnations, lilies of the valley
and ferns. White carnations and
roses were used in abundance around
the room. The library was in pink
and green, with nantes and CRATES
banked with ferns and flowers. The
dining room was in pink and green.
Ropes of smilax suspended from the
chandelier to the four corners of the
table, large basket of roses and lilies
of the valley in the center and broad
bands of pink satin ribbon fastened
with graceful bows from side to side,
forming diamond shaped setting for
the beautiful centerpiece
Mrs. G. II. March poured COTE and
Miss Nellie Drew the chocolate They
we're assisted by Misses Luella Sather,
Mary Strobeck and Portia Joubert.
The hall was in red with coy cor
ner where little Miss Margaret Wells
served frappe. Cora Wells March
gave away the wedding cake souven-
IRIS.
The decorations were under the ST:
pervision of Mrs. j. Esbjornsson and
Mrs G. II. March.
The BRIDES going away gown was OF
tan broadcloth, with hat to match.
The north room was given up to the
gifts to the happy pair, which ranged
from cut glass, hand painted china,
lace, and silver, to a check for 81 900,
a gift to the bride from her father.

Attended Skovgaard Concert.

Prof. N. B. Swain was in Granite
Falls last Thursday, where he attend
ed the concert given there in the even
ing by Axel Skovgaard, who will
visit our city with his company April
rs. Mr.. Swain also attended re-
ception there after the concert, which
was given by DR.. and Mrs. Reese at
their home in honor of the noted vio-
linist. Mr.. Swain is very enthusias-
tic over Skovgaard's playing and is
working hard to secure for him large
audience when he comes to Willmar.
1t is highly probable that he will ac-
company Mr.. Skovgaard abroad when
he leaves for his native home in Den
mark some time in May. He plans to
90 with him to the old home near Co.
penhagen and there spend some time
as his pupil in an advanced course on
the violin Mr.. Swalin's native home
is just across the bay, in Sweden, and
the trip to the scenes ofhis early child
hood would be one of great pleasure.
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1907-04-17

. The fact that Willmar has a
warm fight at each ANNUAL cleo
ton is commented upon as some
thing very unfavorable by the
editors in some of the sleepy sa-
loon ridden burghs not a hun
dred miles away. On the contra
ry these contests prove that the
city has a progressive and virile
population that will not supinely
lie down and permit corruption
and abuses to flourish.
