FALLS CITY LOSES A FAVOR
TIE YOUNG LADY
Ahner s. Mckee and Sarah Crook
Schoenheit Married Wed
nesday Morning

\ wedding of more than usual
interest took place in st. Thomas
Episcopal church in this city on
Wednesday morning at 1890
when Abuer S. Mckee of Paonia,
Colo, was united in marriage to
Miss Sarah Crook Schoenheit.
Rev. Geo. l.. Neide performed
the ceremony, using the solemn
but beautiful ring service of that
church.
The bride had planned a very
simple and quiet wedding, there
being no invitations, but her
many friends decreed otherwise,
all agreeing that they were not
to be thus cheated, and at the
appointed time the church was
filled with the many who were
DESTROYS of extending congratu-
lations and best wishes to the
one whom they held in such high
regard.
Promptly at 1890 Mrs. Neide
sounded Loehngrin's wedding
march, and the rector followed
by the groom, supported by Judge
White, proceeded from the yes
try to the chancel, where they
we're met by the bride leaning on
the arm of her mother, who gave
her to the man of her choice.

The Board of Managers of the

noon, July "a, and to close on
Sunday evening, Aug. J.
On Friday last representatives
of three bureaus met the MANA
gers and an exceedingly strong
program was made up and talent
secured from the three bureaus.
This is by far the highest grade
program we have yet had. A new
department has been added for the
special benefit of the ladies and a

MISSION
A MERRY CHRISTMAS

With a heart full of gratitude for the prosperity
which The Tribune enjoys through your efforts, we wish
you a Merry Christmas.
The good old year is nearing it's close and it's story
nears the last chapter.
There are sad chapters for many of you that you will
read and re read through all the coming years. There
are many, many happy passages withal, and some that
are humorous, for such is the story of life.
The material and moral status of our people has i'm
proved within the past twelve months, for the world is
constantly growing better and weather. and greater.
Complete harmony is monotonous, as a diet of
sweets becomes obnoxious. There must be minor chords
in the music, and no life has it's full capabilities EN-
ployed until some sorrow has found Judgment in its soul.
Be thankful, therefore, for your grief as well as
your gladness.
Count your blessings, whether their creation is the
product of some great gain or some great loss, for in the
last analysis God visits nothing upon you that does not
result in your final good.
The spirit of the Child in the manger still abides
with us, and will so abide until the race has run its
course.
In that spirit, whoever and wherever you may be,
for you and yours we wish you a Merry Christmas.
