A QUIET HOME AFFAIR
Marriage Vows Pronounced at $50
tuesday Morning in Presence of
The Relatives

Miss Robina Hazel McGibbon and
Mr.. Henry Alvin Halyerson were
quietly married at $50 a. m. Tuesday.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. S. l.. Mitchell, rector of the
Church of the Good Samaritan, at the
residence of the BRIDES parents, Mr..
and Mrs. John McGibbon, on north
Main street. The ring ceremony of
the Episcopal church was used. Only
relatives of the bride and groom were
present.
Immediately after the ceremony,
Mr.. and Mrs. Halverson departed for
st. Paul over the Northern Pacific
road, there to remain for week, af-
ter " hich they will take up their re-
sidence in Madison, MINI.
The announcement of the wedding
came as surprise to the public.
Miss McGibbon had held a good posi-
tion in the Cloquet, Minn., public
schools since last September and it
was supposed she would remain
through the year. However, she re-
signed before leaving Cloquet for the
holiday vacation and the wedding fol-
lowed. The bride is Sauk Centre
girl, graduate of the local high
school and society favorite. Her
family is among the best known and
most highly respected in the city.
The groom is prosperous young
business man of Madison, Mimi. Mr..
and Mrs. Halvorson will reside in
Madison. The bride was teacher i'm
the Madison public schools for two or
more years and there met her hus-
band.

AFTER THE PIANO
Contestants In the Contest Are
Getting Busy
A FIVE DOLLAR PRIZE
Quintet of PIunks to be Given to
Young Lady Showing Biggest
Vote on First Count

A shining five dollar gold piece will
be given as special prize in The
Herald's piano contest to the contes-
tant who, on the first count of votes,
has the highest number of votes.
Say, girls, is that five dollars worth
going after? It's up to you to decide.
You do not have to take it if you
don't want it. There's no compulsion
in the matter. But The Herald offers
it in good faith. If you want it, get
very busy. You know that votes are
what count. The big ballot box will
be unlocked and the votes counted on
the evening of January, 5, 1910. The
result will be printed in The Herald
on Thursday, January 6, 1910. 1t is
this count of votes that will decide
who gets the five dollar gold piece.
Another thing, too, girls; no more
free ballots will be printed after this
weeks issue of The Herald, nor will
any be accepted after Friday, Dec. 81,
1909. Remember that.
The contestants are working nicely
now, still, there's plenty of time for
more to get in on the contest. The
sooner they enter the better.
Just one more word to contestants.
OF course, no contestant is compelled
to place any ballots in the box before
the first count of votes. But don't
you think, girls, it would be pretty
good plan to have your vote appear
the first time the result is announced2
You can hold back your votes if you
want to; it's up to you. Ballot box
stuffing is permitted in this contest.
Put in all the votes you can-and
then some. Get your friends to work
for you. 1t all counts. The contest

.SLAPS MRS. EDDY
Rev. +. II. 0ehIer Hits the Apostle
of Christian Science
"A RELIGIOUS .FAkIR''
Says Dowie Is an Amateur Beside
Her and That Dr.. Cook Pdles
Into lnSignifiCdnCe

In his Sunday morning sermon,
Rev. +. H. Oehler, pastor of the Con-
gregational church, took a shy at
Mormonism, Dowie, DR.. Cook and
Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy, the high
priestess of the Christian Science cult.
His sentiments were not endorsed by
all in the congregation but everybody
sat up and took notice. Mr.. Oehler's
subject was "The Treasures of the
Snow". Here follows that part of the
discourse referring to Mrs. Eddy:
1.-THE snow comes from heaven,
without let or hindrance, for anything
man can do. No wisdom or power of
man is able to call it down from the
skies. In the same way the grace of
God is free gift. 1t cannot be COM
PEELED, nor bought, nor effectively
initiated.
"The world has had many impos.
tors before DR.. Cook. Every now and
then man comes along with new
religion or with some new ecclesiasti-
cal nostrum, which is promised to
cure all human ills. tits strange how
people like to be humbugged. They
are too wise to believe the foolish
teachings proclaimed by the churches,
but just gullible enough to accept
things that are infinitely more un-
reasonable.
sit passes belief that many intelli-
gent people were carried away years
ago by the doctrines of Mormonisrn,
and that today growing body accepts
the tenets and alleged facts of Smith
and Young, which are manifestly
based upon imposture.
SIN 1892 certain Dowie came from
Australia to Chicago and set up as a
faith healer. I am not finding fault
with the belief that prayer is power
to cure the sick. But however Dowie
veiled his purpose and advertised his
work, ne made faith in his ability to
cure the sick matter of merchandise
and means to minister to his per-
sonal power over his adherents. The
almost spectacular disappearance of
this bizarre religious phenomenon is
still fresh in the memory Of all.
"And in the same breath would
payamy respects. to Mrs. Baker Eddy
and her remarkable accomplishments
as religious faker. DR.. Cook paies
into insignifcance beside her. Dowie
was an amateur in comparison.
There is no question that her in
fiuence over her fellows is more abso.
lutte than that of any religious teacher

Lamb, as "a dashing soldier and a
brilliant surgeon.
DR.. Lambs toast was "Reveries of
a Bachelor. He read q parody on
Mitchell's literary product of that
title. 1t was an exceedingly clever
effort in which the doctor gave Mr..
Alden the character of the bachelor
who had been indulging in reverie,
each. of the other members of the
party being referred to and pictured
in a humorous way. The doctors
effort was received with prolonged
applause.
1t had been the intention that Fred
w. Carpenter, private secretary to
President Taft, should be one of the
guests. Unfortunately, however,
that gentleman, who spent Christmas
here with his mother, was compelled
to leave for Washington, on Sunday.
In his absence Mr.. Sprague presented
his regrets.
The toastmaster next produced a
catalogue of prominent historical
characters, from Adam down through
the long list of men to the matrimo-
nial mistits of present day life, men,
tioning Milton and Dante, Byron and
Bacon, as well as others, all of whom
had been unhappy in marriage. This
was done as a warning to the guest
of honor, who was then called upon
to face his bachelor colleagues for ''a
few remarks. The soon-to-be Bene-
dick rose to the occasion in fine style.
He eulogized the matrimonial alliance,
said it was the only thing for man
to enter into and pleaded with his
brethren who were present to follow
his example. Mr.. Alden also INDUCED
in something of reyerie, mentioning
each of his hosts by name and urging
them to "get busy" before it was
everlastingly too late. He was en-
Enthusiastically applauded as he took
his seat.
Following Mr.. Alden's response, all
rose and pledged the health of
guest of the evening, wishing him
and his chosen one q happy voyage
down life's sea with refuge in a
safe haven at last!
This closed the formal part. of the
program and the members of the party,
after personally complimenting Mr..
and Mrs. Austin for their faultless
serving of the banquet, adjourned to
Mr.. Welles' 70 om, where an hour or
more were spent over fragrant
Havanas in informal social chat. Mr..
Alden presented.each ofhis hosts with
a souvenir of the occasion. The party
broke up shortly after midnight, all
agreeing that they had passed an
eveningof pleasure unalloyed.

Some time ago certain politicians
and certain advertising agents got to-

to secure publicity of certain kind
through the country newspapers.
The field was to be pre-empted in
such way on such terms as would
appeal to country publishers. 1t was
thought by the combine as important
to keep out Objectionable matter as
to secure the insertion of approved
"news." 1t would at all events be
convenient to know what was going
on. Letters from the capital were to
be prepared, ostensibly mere news
correspondence, treating of general
matters of public interest. Occasion
ally some man or some measure was
to be guardedly played up. This adj
yertising agents business was to Sc
cure the desired publicity-fora con-
sideration. Paragraphs are appearing
here and there which indicate that
the syndicate has opened up it's cam
paign, and that the country newspap-
-er men are being cashed in. Country
editors who are unwilling to play in
to the hands of that lively junta
which has its headquarters in the
German-American bank building will
scrutinize correspondence secured on
easy terms carefully.

we have a really, for-sure Republican
administration, should lose no time
in getting next. The Republican
"Me and Mike" confidently expect
soon to be handing out the plums.
In the meantime they are setting
up the pins. Bob Dunn suggests that
nobody should bother. but let Ed.
Smith and Oar Reese select the ticket
and fix up the platform. Why dis
criminate? There are others. You
can't have state wide machine and
only recognize those in St. Paul and
Minneapolis. OF course there must
be representatives to do things at the
state capital, but they aren't the

At that they would be badly enough
off if they didn't have some one to
consult and to really direct-some one
with ample leisure to devote to the
public service. That's where Col.
Rich comes in. The plans are really
laid and the campaign mapped out in
