A Big Celebration

The 4th was an ideal day.
The heat was not excessive, a
cool breeze all day. The rain
Saturday afternoon previous had
dried off sufficiently SO the roads
were not bad and there was no
dust on the streets.
People began to arrive early in
the morning and by ten o'clock
the city was crowded with
people. Numbering from 5000
to 10000. Some say it was the
largest crowd ever gathered in
Broken Bow. "No wonder" re-
marked an observer from the
outsid. "The news papers of
Broken Bow advertised it liber-
ally"
The program as advertised
was carried out to the letter.
But the people were too many
and too busy for all of them to
see it all.
1t was a picnic occasion,
Many brought their lunch bas'
kets we'll filled and at the moor
hour squads of people by locali'
ties or families sought out shady
hooks in various parts of the
city and enjoyed their dinner
together.
The display of fire works con
tinued up to midnight and many
who were there were 10th to leave
for home.
1t was a big day for Broker
Bow and a good time for all wht
attended.

KOCH -HAEFELE

AOSh - IlAEIElsk
Like an ancient gentleman, of
whom we read in Holy Writ, your
correspondent was wandering to
and fro up and down in the earth
on last Wednesday, June 10Th,
1910. From hilltop near
Mckinley postoffice his eye lig ht-
ed on a curious scene, Joe
Haefele's house surrounded by
horses and buggies, seemingly
without number and decorated on
the south side by big red tour
ing car. Of course the corre-
spondent of this invaluable journ-
al drew nigh. Inquiry brought
, out the fact that a high noon
wedding was about to be cele-
brated, and the delicious odors
from Mrs. Haefele's kitchen
spoke of so many good things to
follow that rye scribe" could not
resist the temptation to stay and
jot down the following:
The fortunate young man was
Jacob Koch, a prosperous young
farmer of Merna, and the pretty
little bride was Miss Elizabeth
Grace Haefele, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Haefele. The
attendants were Miss Carrie Koch
and Clayton Yohn. Miss Bertha
Barrett of Broken Bow played
the beautiful wedding march,
and Rev. c. P. Netherly of Cal
laway tied the golden knot.
The features of especial inter-
est in connection with this happy
event might be summed up as
| follows: 1t was the request OF
the interested young people that
not only the ring ceremony be
used but that the solemn, splend-
id and elaborate Episcopal form
be followed. This grand ritual
is used by all ministers upon re-
quest and is one of the longest
and most beautiful wedding
{ ceremonials known to the Prot.
estant church.
The bride was given away by
her father in a very neat little
spec ch. In point Of attendance
this was one Of the largest we'd
dings in the county this year,
there being ninety.six guests
counted at the great wedding
banquet that followed the nup
tials. With the exception o.
three OF four families these
guests were all related. 1t being

Heart of City.

The architects drawing for a new three

in one OF the show windows of the Ne

clpal hosiery in the town. 1t will ac-
commodate a corner location in the busl-
ness section of the town and will be one
of the best country hotels in the state.
But Harlan has some good reasons to
take exceptions to the appellation, country
town. 1t Is Just now engaged in taking
on many of the characteristics and good
clothes of real city. II has paved streets
and is declared to be the best lighted town
in the state. II has the pedestal curb
five-light system, spaced at sixty feet all
along it's principal streets. The lamps were
paid for by the business men, and the
town furnishes the current for the 40-watt
tungsten lights. The person has poor eye
sight who cannot see to read ordinary
newspaper print at any point along the
business streets on the blacklist night OF

In addition to all OF this Harlan is talk
ing of an electric street railway, (which
may become a part Of one or the proposed
interurban roads that will connect Council
Bluffs with many of the surrounding
towns. Harlan Is growing, and II is be-
cause the town is blessed with business
