Going After Water.

The city council had a lengthy ses-
sion at its regular meeting on Monday
night. The matters under deliber-
alton were more water and how to get
it, and an electro light plant in con-
nection with pumping station.
The result was that work will be be-
gun at once on the city hall lots for an
experiment on pumping, using the city
fire department engine as the means of
power to be connected with eight or
ten points driven into the ground.
There is any amount of water under
the city and it is only matter of
getting it where it can be used. The
feasibility Of driving points, as you
would drive for we'll, had been demon
strated in other places with excellent
satisfaction. The council is going to
give the proposition a fair test before
attempting anything of a permanent
nature.
The council is also getting figures on
an electric light system. Mrs. F. w.
Parkinson, representative of the Mime
apolis branch of the Westinghouse
Electric and Manufacturing Company
of Pittsourg, is in the city and will
submit All estimate of the expense of a
plant for city the size of Oakes.

Popular Couple weds.

A quiet home wedding took place
yesterday at one o'clock at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. C. Petersen on Main
street, when their youngest daughter,
Johanna, was united in marriage to
Mr.. Joseph E. Bunday. The ceremony
was witnessed by immediate relatives
and friends. and was performed by
Rev. B. A. Burns, pastor of the Meth
odist Episcopal church. After the
ceremony splendid wedding dinner
was served. 1t was not long after that
until DR.. Ryder whisked down the back
alley, and in one second and quarter
the bridal couple were in the auto with
the doctor and his wife and took back
street cut out of the city for Verona,
where the newlyweds took the train
for Fargo. They did not want to take
chances with getting on the train at
Oakes, as they were not quite sure
what was in store for them. There
were suspicious looking individuals
peeking from every corner, and
there would have been several kinds of
pranks pulled off, if they could only get
their hands on the pair.
The bride and groom are very popular
with the people of Oakes. They have
lived here for many years, and have
the respect of everybody who knows
them. The bride is young woman of
pleasant disposition and will make a
splendid housekeeper for one of the
best fellows on earth. Joe Bunday
has held trusted positions in Oakes for
fifteen years or more, and has filled
every one Of them with credit to him
self and his employers. He is an
affable, accommodating, good-natured
fellow, and we doubt it he has an
enemy in or out of the city, although
he has been doing business with them
for years. At present he is cashier of
the First National Bank, a position he
has occupied about four years.
The couple will go to Minneapolis,
and there and at the lakes of Mime
sofa will spend a week, after which
they will return to Oakes, where Mr..
Bunday has nice home on Union
street.-the Will Boyd residence-where
the couple will go to housekeeping.
The Times congratulates this worthy
couple, and wishes them many happy
years of married life.

It Never Rains But
It Pours.

A party of young people-some mar
ried, some soon to be married, and
some that would like to be-got to-
gether Monday evening and enjoyed
picnic lunch down in the 500 ''jungIes. {"
They had real merry time and finally
sauntered back to town, landing at the
Ferber home. There have been sus-
picions that there was soon to be a
wedding outside of a certain
home knew the exact date-but the
party was just in a frame of mind of
starting something, and Joe and 10.
of the party were decided on as the
victims. How to shake the victims"
in order to get ready was the question
that was bothering the people that
were bent on some pranks. They fin
ally thought of getting them to the
J. F. Nichols home, and maybe Joe
and 10. would really decide to go home
sometime in the night. The queer ac-
tions and whisperings gave Joe and 10.
to understand there was something in
the air, and they just hung around
weren't in any hurry at all. It was
somewhere near midnight, more or
less, when the ''pokies" started and
about that time connections had been
made with the city hall, where Bert
Slocum was busily engaged in his duties
as city father, wrestling with some
serious problems in city affairs. Bert
must get to the store at once-and the
young folks pounced down there, gath
cred in all the tinware they could get
their hands on and proceeded to the
home of Miss 10. Petersen. The next
thing done was to get Joe and 10.
there. That was soon accomplished,
and there was tin shower for the
bride-to-be. The party had rollicking
time and broke up in the wee sma'
hours of thc morning.
There was another shower-it rains
almost every day now--at the Ryder
home on Tuesday evening. This time
it was a granite shower and big
hamper basket was filled with granite
ware and presented to the groom and
bride-to-be. The home was filled with
people, and they amused themselves in
splendid style until one o'clock in the
morning. Mrs. Ryder was assisted by
some of the ladies in serving ice cream
and cake.
It was one on Mr.. Bunday in the
afternoon. When he came back from
his noon meal he found his desk all
decorated, with brides ribbon and
roses, and a picture Of a bridal couple
planted in the center at the altar.
There were many smiling faces behind
the scenes peeking out as Joe came to
take his place at the desk. He didn't
do thing but take the bunch next
door and treat them to ice cream.
And all the time the Joes wondered
how it had leaked out that the wed ;
ding day was soon. But it couldn't
have been timed better, Il it had been
advertised ahead for four weeks.
It is said that. Miss Rank, August
Olson and Chas. Buerge drank Jim
Nichols winter supply Of rhubarb,
syrup and went home absolutely sober.
