Death of Phillip Sauer

Phillip Sauer, young man about IL
years old died yesterday morning at the
home OF his parents on the north side.
From such information as we were able
to obtain just before going to press we
learn that the family came here from
Everett last May for the benefit of the
young mans health, who it appears
was afflicted with an incurable malady.
Everything that medical skill and kind
friends could do was done, but without
avail. The family originally removed
to Everett from Holdridge, Neb., some
eighteen months ago. 1t had not been
decided when this was written whether
interment would be made here or the
remains shipped to the old home.

We had a very pleasant call this
week from Mr.. w. V. Davis, the re-
Gently elected pastor of the Congre-
gational church. Mr.. Davis came
from Ohio, where he has been located
for some time. He will be followed
later on by his wife, and possibly his
daughter. He had previously spent
several years in Colorado and Utah and
in coming to Washington he only
answered the call of the west, which
he acknowledges has been ringing in
his ears ever since he went east.
Mr.. Davis is very pleasant gentleman
to meet. It is now up to the mem
bers of his church, and all others as
well, to make his stay pleasant and
beneficial to the town, the church and
community.

Miss Bessie Bell Powers, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. T. J. Sherman, and
Mr.. Edward Page were married at high
noon on Sunday, September 20, 1908,
in the presence Of the immediate rel
atives of the contracting parties and a
few invited guests, Rev. L. A. Cans
officiating.
The rooms were very tastefully deco
rated with ferns, flowers and Oregon
grape, the color scheme being green
and white in the living room and green
and gold in the dining room. A pretty
bower of ferns and white asters was
artistically arranged, in front of which
the bridal couple stood during the
pretty and impressive ceremony which
united them for life.
The bride was charmingly gowned
in white Persian lawn and Val.
lace and carried white carnations. The
groom wore the conventional black.
Immediately after the ceremony the
guests partook of very sumptuous
dinner, after which the time was pleas
antly spent in social chat and music.
Both of these young people are well
known and have host of friends who
wish them much happiness. They will
go to house keeping at once, and later
will leave for an extended trip to Spo-
kane and eastern points.
