Golden Wedding

One OF the most happy events held
in kushmore was that at the Wemple
home, Friday, Jan. II, 1908, when Mr.
and Mrs. Evert L. Wemple celebrated
their Flttieth Anniversary. The day
was beautiful one for mid winter and
added to the occasion.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wemple came from
New Jersey and settled at Rushmore
in 1876, at which place they have since
lived, most honored and respected
citizens. Mr.. Wemp]e was one of the
first to organize the town and has
taken an active part in it's MANAGE
ment since that time. He was elected
Judge OF Probate in the early county
and has since carried the name bv
which he is familiarly known Judge
Wemple." For twenty-eight years
Mr.. Wemple served on the School
Board in the capacity of Treasurer.
He was postmaster for several wears
until failing health compelled him to
resign.
For the first time in many years all
the five. children sat at the family
table at the same time and brought
up past history and family ties. The
eldest son, A. S. Wemple, accompani-
ed by his wife, of Minneapolis, Mrs.
A. Schaefer, of st. Paul, wife OF the
Public Examiner, Mrs. W. II. Booth,
of Sioux Falls, husband and two
daughters, James Wemple of Wap-
pengers Falls, N. Y j., and E. S. Wem-
pie and family of Rushmore,- all
of these were present to answer the
roll call and make the day happy
and one long to be remembered.
Mr.. Wemple is in his seventy. third
year while Mrs. Wemple is seventy
two.
May this honored couple who have
lived together happily as man and
wife for SO years, live to see many
more years roll by. Their lives have
been lives of usefulness and their WAYS
are ways of peace.

CHURCHES AS FORTA

Hid European Edifces Fortified Againes
Attack.
The Fortified Church of the Old Be-
Nevers at Komareff, Russia, probably
was, and still is, the strongest FORTH
led church in Europe. This sect was
for long time cruelty prosecuted, and
at Intervals something approaching
civil war was waged. They had several
churches, and these were forti~
fed and turned into castles,
says London Tid~Bits. Seve::>:
times were the churches besieged.
but in every cass they successfully re-
sisted the attempts O; the Cars troops
to capture them. With the exception
OF the Komarsff church, the fort6ca-
tons have been allowed to fall into
decay, but this place is still maintain
ed in such manner as to resist siege,
large guns being mounted at points OF
vantage and ammunition being kept
w'1hln the walls. The fortress church
q! Luz, in the French department OF
kiautes-Pyrenees, is surrounded by d
thick wall fifteen feet in height, having
strong battlements on the top and
loopholes through which shots or mis-
s1les could be hurled against the enc
my. Largo guns were placed in posi-
ton on the roof, while inside the
church WAS store of rifles, pistols.
cutlasses, etc. This church, which be-
longed to the Knights Templar, was
placed at Luz to guard the frontier,
and formed an outpost of Christians
against the saracens at first and after.
wards against the span1ards.
