The second game was also somewhat

both made two errors, and both got two

The latest curiosity in that way came
along with the brace Of games Wash

to and . to 0. Has the gentle reader
stopped 10 ponder over the angles OF
that first clash? Perhaps and perhaps
not. Groom allowed two hits and three
bases on balls. Both hits and one OF
the passes came In the hfth inning. One
Of the said hits was a pop over Stat

Supt. Mosher's Resignation.

While the resignation of Mr.. Mo-
sher was not expected at this time,
it was known by his friends that he
was seriously meditating going into
other than school work. During
his four years as superintendent in
this city he has been an important
factor in greatly improving the
standing and course of study in the
school. Largely to his efforts should
be credited the addition of manual
training, cooking and sewing classes
to the course of study, as we'll as the
increase in the number of high
school pupils amounting to nearly
fifty per cent in four years. Supt.
Mosher can we'll afford to be judged
by his work here. He is a splendid
organizer and an unusually good
judge of competent teaching force
as evidenced by the high average of
the teaching talent employed under
him and above all, has shown him
self thoroughly conscientious in his

Barnes -SeebeCk Wedding.

Today at 1920, at the residence
of the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
August Seebeck, in Homer. Miss
Carrie Seebeck is to become the
bride of Mr.. Harry Barnes, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. William Barnes of
this city. The parties to the con-
tract have been marked for the al
tar by their friends for many months
and the conclusion of the matter is
not unexpected.
Rev. S. M. Smith will be the Off
ciating clergyman and only the i'm
mediate family of the young couple
will attend,
The bride was stenographer at the
First National Bank for more than
year, and the fact that two bank
stenographers have been led to the
altar within week here is liable to
create considerable pressure at our
banks of applicants to fill vacancies
in those positions as they may arise.
We are informed that Mr.. and
Mrs. Barnes will take up their resi-
dence on the Quarton & Barnes farm
in Delhi township, for this season at
least

HECTOR IS v ANQUISHED.
Little Blind Archer Throws "HeCk" Nc
kenzie and He is Benedict.

The marriage of Hector Mckenzie
and Miss Minnie Hanson. which oc-
Cured last Friday evening, was
managed as a clever surprise to
their friends last week.
While rumor was busy fixing vari-
Gus dates for the ceremony, the
young people quietly repaired to
the study of Rev. S. M. Smith of the
Christian church, before whom and
a few relatives their marriage vows
were solemnly plighted.
The bride has very acceptably
filled the position of stenographer at
the State Bank for nearly two years
past. and has made many friends
during her residence here, being
active in church and Sunday school
circles at the Christian church,
where she has officiated as organist.
Mr.. Mckenzie is building up a good
business in the livery line, and has
acquired some local fame as an ath-
lete and champion wrestler. Now
that Cupid has taken a fall out of
him, we presume that he will abdi-
gate the wrestling game for some
time to come.
The Gazette is quite ready to for
give the fact that Mr.. Mckenzie
kept the reporters fooled by side
tracking the marriage record for a
few days, and extends to both par
ties to the contract best wishes for a
rosy future.

Father Dotson Eighty Years Young.

Father j. w. Dotson, the original
founder of the village Of Sanborn,
recently passed his eightieth birth
day at his Santa Cruz home on the
Pacific coast, where he has been en-
joying a sunny and happy afternoon
of a useful life. The Santa Cruz
Surf, referring to the anniversary,
says, "A pretty feature Of the occa-
sion was a shower of postal cards
from children and friends far and
near, over 125 being received. Mr..
and Mrs. notson have resided in
Santa Cruz many years, and are
highly respected, both by friends
and neighbors, who heartily join in
wishing them many happy returns. !"
1t seems hard to realize that we saw
Father Dotson almost % years ago,
when the bran new station of San
born was a small cluster of houses,
and Father Dotson a hard working
citizen, wheeling sacks of wheat to
the hopper of the fiat warehouse
where he was the sole wheat buyer
of the place. He was kindly, gen.
ial man then, and we rejoice that
his lines have fallen in pleasant
places and that he is surrounded
by people who appreciate his worth.

PASSED TO HER REWARD.
Former HOnOred Resident of this County
Dies at WenatChee, Wash.

Last Friday there came to the
home Of Clark Miller in this city a
telegram to the effect that his aged
mother passed away the day pre-
vious, as the result of a second stroke
of appopleXy, she having recovered
from previous stroke some years
ago.
Mr.. Miller visited his mother last
winter, which is consolation to him
at this time, as he found his mother
in full possession Of her faculties,
though necessarily not strong, ow-
ing to her advanced years. Last
Monday was the 18th anniversary of
Mrs. Miller's birth. She was a SIS
ter of the late F. G.. Shaver, and
came with him early in the seventies
to make home for her fatherless
children on a homestead southwest
of this city, her husband having
died at their former home in Mis-
souri,. 1t was her privilege andre
ward to live to see her two sons and
daughter in the enjoyment of COM
Portable homes. Clark was the old
est son, Jesse, the younger son, liv-
ing at Wenatchee, where the mother
has lived for several years, since her
removal from this city, with Mrs. T.
D. Martin, her only daughter. Mrs.
Miller was taken with the final at
tack Of paralysis which was the
cause of her death about a week be-
fore the final summons came, and
was unconscious for three days be-
fore that time. News had come of
the attack to Mr.. Miller by letter,
so that he was in a measure prepar-
ed for the telegram which followed.
