WEDDING BELLS

Wednesday afternoon at the
home of the bride, Misc Susie
Rodenbah second daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Jake Rodenbah, was
united in marriage to Mr.. Bert Sell
kirk. The ceremony was performed
by the Rev. +. w. Emigh and was
witnessed only by the immediate
relatives of the family.
The bride was gowned in a beau
tiful creation of white satin, elab-
orately trimmed with chiffon lace
and cut dimi-train; and the groom
in conventional black.
Miss Rodenbah was born and
raised in this valley and by her
charm of manner and personal at
fractions is universally honored
and esteemed.
Mr.. Selkirk though born in Cal
ifornia has grown TO manhood in
this valley and is too we'll known
to need an introduction, besides i'm
pressively requesting us to cut it
out. Suffice to say during the past
year he has successfully managed
this paper, and commencing with
the first of this month by purchase
assumed it's absolute control. He
is by instinct and early training a
newspaper man, his father having
been connected with the press of
Placervile, since pioneer days, and
inaugurating the New year, with
his dual possession he has the best
wishes of the entire community.
After the ceremony an elegant
lunch was served, the color scheme
being pink and white, at which
many sincere expressions of success
and happiness were INDUCED in and
all went merry as marriage bell.

SHIPMENTS ARE
IBEINC WITHHELD
Railroad Demands Cash in Ad.
vance; all Shippers Cannot
Comply.

At least four carloads of hay and
grain are being held from shipment
this week because of the fact that
that the shippers are unable TO
meet the demands OF the Southern
Pacific company by paying cash
in advance on the different cars.
The company will not accept clear
ing house certificates nor personal
checks.
This ruling, which is unreason
BILE and unjust, is curtailing ship
ments from Carson Valley to out
side markets and if they continue
at any length of Time. the price OF
produce is bound to 60 to lower
price.
The railroad seems not to be con-
tent to charge sh ppers from this
point double and excessive rates
for hauling produce, in "New Ne
vada' the land of the homeseeker,
as it is put forth in their advertis-
ing literature for this state. How
ever, in their prospectus, they fail
to state that the Southern Pacific
expect to collect half of the gross
earning of your farm.

In Nature of Formnlity to Retire Preferred stock. But Does Not Prevent Carrying Out of

 A holder of . single share of pre-. rerred stock had expressed a desire to convert his stock into common, hence it was necessary to apply to the Stock Exchange to have the common stock listed

 For a long time past rumors have been current that the Southern Pacific would offer to retire the preferred stock by the issue of a bond, bearing or 1-2 per cent interest, which 1 eventually would be convertible into common stock II was also thought 1 that concurrent with this event the 1 dividend on the common stock might l be advanced from the present 6 per | cent. level to [.
