DucIos-Baune Wedding.

OIlS VI Tie largest WeuulIlSS
that has occurred in this vicinity
during the past several years
was celebrated at the Duclos
home north of town on Tuesday
of this week in honor of the mar
riage of Miss Julia Duclos to Mr..
Tony Baune, both of this place.
The ceremony was performed
at the local Catholic church on
Tuesday morning, Rev. Father
Odilo pronouncing the words that
joined the two for life. The
bride was supported by her sis
ter, Anna, and Miss Lizzie Bau-
ne and the groom by John Duclos
and Ben Baune. The bride was
gowned in a beautiful rose silk
gown and the bridesmaids wore
dresses of the same color. The
groom and groomsmen wore the
conventional black.
After the ceremony the we'd
ding party drove to the home of
the BRIDES parents where a
sumptuous wedding dinner was
partaken of. The tables were
beautifully arranged and fairly
groaned under their loads of
eatables, to which the large num-
ber of guests did ample justice.
In the afternoon dancing and
other amusements held sway and
in the evening another banquet
was served to all present. After
supper dancing was again in
dulged in until an early hour the
next morning, a pavilion having
been built on the lawn and COW
cred with a 30x60 foot tent for
this occasion.
Between 400 and 500 invited
guests attended the festivities
during the day and evening and
if the best wishes of numerous
friends count for anything the
pathway. of the happy young
couple will certainly lie along
pleasant ways during the re-
mainder of their lives.
The bride is the second daugh.
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Duclos and
is young lady of many fine
qualities and attainments and
stands high in the esteem of all
who know her.
The groom is the son of Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Baune and is
one of the model young man oi
the community. He is frugal
industrious, without a single vice
of a pleasant disposition and al
together a young man whom any
girl could we'll be proud to claim
as a husband.
The groom owns a homestead
on the Flathead reservation il
Montana and will leave with hi
bride next month to take w
their residence in that state.
The CHRONICLE joins will
their many friends in hoping
that their future days may b.
filled to overflowing with MARTA
bliss and good fortune.

did THE TR 8 P, CATCH
COMMISSIONERS ASLEEP

Has the T. r. & p. slipped an
other one over on the People?
Is it behind the franchise for
an electric road extending south
from Larchmont, for which B. F.
Allison was given 25-year fran
chise
He was given franchise to
construct and operate a railroad
on one side of the roadway, sup
posedly. When the commissioners
came to look up the franchise 1t
was found that sin the press of
business" the side-of-the-road
clause had been left out. Allison
could put his tracks any place on
the road. And he did.
The road is only about three
miles long. Only enough has been
cleared and graded so far for a
right-of-way for wagons. Allison
laid his ties down this roadway.
Yesterday the Larchmont and vi
cinity residents began to sit up
and take notice. This morning Al
lison was ordered to move his
tracks to the side of the road.
Technically he does not have to.
The verbal agreement would not
hold in court.
Allison says he wants the road
for himself, to take out logs on.
The commissioners are beginning
to scratch their heads and look
askance at the Stone & Webster
interests.
