SIFFERT-BRADFORD.

A woman can keep a secret and a
man too, especially when the man and
the woman have become one. Mr..
James Lee Bradford and Miss Kath-
crime E. Siffert were made one In
marriage May 18th, and for the notion
OF it kept the secret for nearly a
month. The wedding took place at
the Congregational parsonage, the
parties coming over from choir prac
tice, Rev. c. E. Mason performing the
| ceremony, the bride receiving the
ring.
Mr.. Bradford originally from Marioa
Indiana, came to Mountain Home
from Crookston, Mimi, five years
since, and became proprietor Of
what is now the Evans hotel. Since
severing his connection with that pub.
lie house he has been in the Real Es-
tate business and as a conspicuous fig
ure on our streets is well known to
the people OF Mountain Home. The
bride came to Mountain Home, last
Thanksgiving day and for the short
time of her residence in our midst
has made herself endeared to a large
circle of friends. OF a very friendly
and pleasing manner and by her love
ly and strong soprano she soon came
into notice in the congregation and
with the music committee and was
made a member and necessity in tn
Congregational choir. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Bradford have been very faith
full members of the choir, constant
both at choir practice and at the Sab
bath services. Mrs. Bradford is also
the s. S. teacher of the Adult Young
peoples class, in which number Of
the public school teachers have been
members. Mrs. Bradford Is the daugl
ter of Rev. W. O. Siffert Of Cam
bridge, Ohio, he being worthy and
successful minister in the United
Bretheren denomination. Rev. Mr..
Siffert preached in the Congregation
al pulpit of Mountain Home some
years ago to the edificatiOn of the
congregation. The bride Is a sister
of Mrs. Dan Shelter and James Sif
fert formerly resident here and OF
Ed. Siffert now residing here.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bradford are to make
their home here for the present to tn
pleasure of their many friends.

THE TERRoRs OF IMPRISONMENT

A nephew of millionaire and him
self a millionaire was recently convic
ed for the third time of high speeding
with his automobile. The Judge in.
flicted fine of $1,000 and prison
sentence of one day. The fine was
nothing to millionaire; it meant no
more to him than a dollar would have
done to poor man.
But the prison sentence, even but 70
one day. was different matter-that
was something terrible. With tears
his eyes he begged the judge to remit
the punishment But the Judge was d
termined that the majesty of the law
should be respected and the young ma

ton. Yet, after all, the feelings of the
culprit were not greatly lacerated. l
stead Of languishing for twenty-four
hours in lonely cell, his "imprison-
ment?" lasted for just thirty-five min
utes and, apparently, was pleasantly
spent. The sentence was passed at
1925 in the afternoon. By one of those
legal fictions, which on occasion are
so easily conjured up, the day ended
at four. Then, to spare the feelings Of
the prisoner, instead of being put In a
cell he spent the thirty-five minutes
the jailor's house and doubtless they
we're most oheerfully spent
And that is what is called justice
and days Imprisonment. It is per-
tinent to ask whether or not the sam
consideration would have been shown

BoWERMAN NOMINEE
Continued from first page)

Before that time the leaders"
here had the thing all framed
up. They expected Bowerman
to have some little strength,
but they expected that strength
to be small, and they expected
to have firm hold of Multnom ah |
county. Then they expected to
tout DR.. Andrew c. Smith as
the choice of Multnomah county.
Smith and Bowerman opposed to
one another in the state conven-
tion would have provoked a pref
ty scrap. But harmony was
wanted. The leaders, hunting
harmony, would point to "ex-
hibit A of the assembly plan,"
Mayor Simon, and there would
be nothing toit.
But Bowerman has spoiled it.
He has too many of the cow
counties in his pocket and he
has gathered too many influences
in Multnomah county behind his
back. He has DR.. Smith "beat
clear out of the running" which,
of course, put Mayor Simon into
the role of an innocent bystand-
er, so far as the nomination is
concerned.
1T looks mighty good" the
Bowerman managers say COM
placently, putting contentedly on
Bowerman cigars.
Judging from the above ar,
ticle, which was PUBLISHED by the
Portland Journal last Saturday,
| it is evident that the Democratic
Organ of the state does not agree
altogether with it's Condor Cor
respondent on the subject of
Senator Bowerman's political
activity, strength and following.

PASTOR AND WIFE.

Thursday afternoon the Ladies Aid
Society Of the Congregational church
was entertained in the basement of
the church by Mesdames Turney.
Sherwood, Powers and K. A. John
son. In the afternoon, aside from the
regular routine Of business, Mrs. s.
H. Scallin and Mrs. H. e. Hitchcock
gave some vocal selections and Mrs.
F. S. Turney gave a select reading,
all of which was very much enjoyed.
The ladies furnished a supper, and
prepared for about sixty, the num-
Der the four hostesses thought would
in all probability come but the num-
per was being served with Rev. and
Mrs. A. Craig Bowdish at the table, a
very neat surprise was worked on
them.
When the pair had finished their
supper, j. s. Daniels presented Mr..
Bowdish with a goodly purse Of mon
ey, stating that it had been subscrib-
ed among the men Of the church as a
testimonial of their friendly feeling
toward him. When Mr.. Daniels had
finished Mrs. F. A. Craft, as president
of the Ladies Aid Society, presented
Mrs. Bowdish with a half dozen of
silver spoons as their appreciation of
her work for the church. Both the
pastor and his good wife made re-
Spouse, and spoke with much feeling
for the tokens which they would carry
with them as something they appre-
ciated very much. Mr.. Bowdish but
recently resigned as pastor Of the
church, and this is the first oppor-
tunity the members have had to give
expression to the kindly feeling they
hold toward the retiring pastor and
his wife.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1910-05-19

People of Mitchell woke on this
supposed eventful day of May 1s,
1910, when the tail of Halley's comet
was due to envelope the earth, to dis
cover the day halcyon and serene. Not
a sign of electrical display nor a haze
in the atmosphere appeared. The fact,
if We had not the word of astronom-
ers, none could tell that this was any
thing but a very ordinary day.
Whether or not the tail of the CON-
ct fell short of the earth or whether,
as some astronomers have said, the
"tail' is nothing but a sort of re-
Election and, therefore without sub
stance, the lay mind cannot say.
