Horses and Cattle Get Top Prices.

Henry Petrie's farm auction ap-
pears to have been something of
record breaker in point of prices Sc.
cured for his stock, and he expresses
himself we'll pleased with the sale as
a whole, which aggregated nearly
$4,000. Sample stock sales were
those of his fine farm team at $500,
to Thos. Johnson of this city, a 2
year old registered heifer at $130.
to Douglas Allen, and bull of about
the same age for S110, to the Den
nistouns, a yearling heifer for $84,
to Jas. Little of Seaforth, his en-
tire herd of nineteen young cattle
and calves averaging ST. each.
While these prices are not high for
good registered stock, they certainly
are good for a merely local sale.
Similar bids were given for Mr..
Petrie's hogs and all stock sold well.
There was record breaking crowd
out. and perhaps the ample and sat-
isfying lunch prepared by Mrs. Pet
RE had something to do with the
prevailing good humor and high

At the Marriage Altar Carbert- Blair.

At the home of the brides moth
err, Mrs. M. j. Carbert. in Delhi, on
Thursday evening, March the I'd.
at s p. M, in the presence of about
fifty invited guests, was solemnized
the marriage of her daughter, Mar
ion, to Mr.. Archie Blair.
At the appointed hour the couple,
unattended, took their places in a
bower which had been prepared at
the south end of the parlor, to the
strains of a wedding march played
by Miss Hilma Borg, the house be-
ing tastefully decorated with carna-
tions and ferns.
Rev. M. R. Myers, pastor of the.
Presbyterian church, performed the
ring ceremony in most beautiful
and impressive manner. After an
unusually congratulatory service by
all present, an elegant three course
dinner was served in a very pretty
manner.
A fine array of presents attest the
high esteem in which these young
people are held, and will serve as
life long mementos.
The bride was simply but attract
lively gowned in cream silk batiste
trimmed with all-over and braid,
and she never appeared to better adj
vantage, while the groom was con-
ventionally dressed.
The groom, though comparative
stranger to most of US. is we'll met
and made a host of friends during
his short stop here, and those who
have known him longer speak only
in the highest terms of his worth
and character. The bride, from
4 little girl, has grown up in our
midst, honored by old and young
alike. and will be greatly missed
from Dolhi social circles inwhich she
always took an active part.
The friends of both brid and
