Married-At the home of the
bride in Ironton, Mo-, Saturday
evening, July I'd, 1910, Mrs. Mi
nerva j. Orrick and A. l. Willard
of L~esterville, Mo-, Rev. Fuller
Swift officiating. The bride is a
longtime resident of Ironton, and
for a number of years has been
successful and popular as land
lady of the hotel which bears her
name-that is to say, her name
until last Saturday evening. MI.
Willard is bookkeeper for the
White & Hummel Mfg Co. AL
though his Missouri residence
does not cover more than two
years, he has acquired an extend
ed acquaintance, all of whom will
join with the REGISTER in wishing
him and his wife long life and I'M
clouded happiness.
My friend and near neighbor,
VIM. Trauernicht, Esq, is putting
on airs these days. When he
walks down street under the flare
of the lamps at night, or in the
glare of the sun at MONDAY, his
shirt front, right under the neck
tie, razzles and dazzles the eye.
You can't tell but that it's a loco
motive astray, or an electric light
ed automobile that is approach
ing. A nearer sight, however, dis
closes the fact that the light-dis-
pensing power is a numerously
carated diamond pima present
lately given him by his friend, G.
w. Parker, of Bismarck. 1t is a
fine gem, but to my notion it does
MT fit William as we'll as it might
one of his near neighbors-modes-
ty forbids my being more particu-
lar in designation. Joking aside,
we all know the recipient is de-
serving of the best his friends can
give him, and he is not lacking in
due appreciation.
During the charivari OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Willard last Saturday night
Roy Reel was accidentally shot in
the left hip. The ball came from
a 80 calibre Colts revolver in the
hands of VIM. Schleuter, one of
the cow-bell serenaders. He was
firing his "gun" merely to add to
the din, and was greatly dismayed
at the result of his shooting. The
wound inflicted is of course pain
full, but pronounced not serious by
the surgeons of the Missouri Pa
cifc Hospital at st. Louis, whittier
the patient was taken Sunday
morning. By the aid of the x-ray
the bullet was located and extract
ed Tuesday. There is in this in
cident a whole sermon against the
promiscuous carrying of deadly
weapons-at the very best a fool
ish and uncalled-for habit. The
statute against it is severe, and it
ought to be rigidly enforced. 1
am not asking for special action in
the above instance, for | am salts
fed the offender is fully punished
by his remorse; but l would like
to see the future made secure
against similar occurrences.
Walter Lee Morris and Miss
Irene Nixon were united in mar
riage at 1890 o'clock yesterday
afternoon at the Presbyterian
church by their pastor, Rev. G. E,
Hickok. Miss Elsie Cayce played
the wedding march. The bride
was attended by Mrs. John E.
Mccormick as matron of honor
and Miss Florence Mccormick as
bridesmaid. Martin Linn Clardy
was best man and DR.. Frank
Weber groomsman. The ushers
were DR.. E. L. Horton, Ellis Law
renee, Howard G.. Washburn and

attired in a travelling suit of blue
and carried a bouquet of white
roses and lilies of the valley.
The matron of honor and BRIDES
maid wore white and carried
bouquets of white roses. The
ceremony a witnessed by an
audience of invited guests which
completely filed the large audi
forum of the church. The we'd
ding occurred on the silver we'd
ding anniversary of the parents of
the bride. The bride is the only
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. A.. T.
Nixon and is a general favorite
among the people of Pennington.
The groom is the junior member of
the firm of Morris Bros, and is a
capable, enterprising young bust

most excellent young woman. Mr..

north. While away they will visit
Old Point Comfort, Washington,
