EIIis-Whitaker Nuptials

The Ledger was in error last week
when it stated that Miss Martha Ellis
of Stony Creek and Low G. Whitaker
of Oakland were united in marriage by
the Hon. Judge Fred V. Wood.
The wedding was performed by
Father Greedy in st. Patrick's church.
Miss Hattie Miller acted in the capa-
city of bridesmaid, while John Ellis, a
brother of the bride was best man.
The bride is the only daughter of Mr.
and Mrs Joseph Ellis of Stony Creek.
She possesses charming disposition,
and enjoys the respect and esteem of
a large circle of friends in this county
who will wish her a happy future in
her chosen path. The groom is the
eldest son of Mr. and Mrs j. Whitaker,
and is a native of lone.
After the ceremony, the party re-
turned to the Ellis home, where a
sumptuous and elaborate wedding
dinner awaited them. Many beautiful
and useful gifts were presented to the
newly weds. Mr. and Mrs Whitaker
will make their future home in Oak
land.

Turkey Shooting.

Last Sunday the marksmen of this
city were given an opportunity to get
cheap turkeys. In many cases, how
ever, the fowls became very expensive
before the crack shots could claim
their prizes. Forty three turkeys were
taken by various persons who paid 10
cents per shot for the prizes. One of
the rifemen spent more than twenty
dollars and received but four turkeys
for his outlay and efforts. Another
man secured six turkeys at an expense
of less than five dollars. Ray Ball Of
Shenandoah valley owned turkeys and
conducted the match. The shooting
was held in therear of the Union livery
stable.
On thanksgiving day another contest
was held, and large variety of fouls
were offered as prizes. Every kind of
a firearm from the revolver up were
used in the shooting

An Amadoran
Receives Compliment

We have received copy of the
Boosters Edition of the Byron Times.
1t comprises 100 pages. with numerous
cuts illustrative of the resources of the
San Joaquin valley. 1t is certainly
the most creditable special edition
issued from paper published at
small way station like Byron, and
would do credit to city paper.
Among the personal notices, George
Salzgeber, formerly of Amador county,
is favored with a biographical sketch,
and portrait. He is now filling
position of responsibility with the
Pacific Gas and Electric Corporation,
having charge of the power lines from
Herdly to Altamont. He has been
working for the company for number
of years, and has steadily worked up to
his present position of trust. We are
pleased to note this advancement by a
former Amador resident.

Hugh Undertaking

Single handed and unaided Col. Abe
Slupsy, st. Louis politician and real
estate dealer, is engaged in the task of
drinking 600 pints of beer in period
of 30 days. The grand total is two

Dog poisoner Busy.

The dog poisoner has again been
doing a rushing business, and as re.
suit, Jackson is minus about five or
six CANNES. Two of the dogs were
found dead in the vicinity of the court
house, and others in the outsirts of
the city. The yelplng dogs started
their music about IL O'Clock, and con-
tinued several hours.
1t is a pity that the inhuman son of
sin who commits these rash acts can
not be detected and supplied with a
fair amount of justice. A poisoned
dog becomes vicious in many cases,
and thereby endangers the general
public.
