STARRETT-WORk.

A very pretty and quiet home wed
ding was sOlemnized Wednesday even
ing when Samuel B. Starrett and Miss
Relta F. Work were united in mar
riage at the residence of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. l.. l.. Work
Only the immediate members of the
family and few intimate friends were
present The room where the cere-
mOny was performed was Hastily dec
Grated without excess of display. The
wedding and preparations were simple
and more effective from the very SIM
plicity. Miss Jessie DillabOugh, of
COncOnully, acted as bridesmaid, Mr..
Ira w. FOllis as best man and little
Miss Carol Work as flower girl. Mrs.
E. s. Taylor played the wedding march.
Mrs. Ira w. Follis sang a solo just
prior to the ceremony, and another
following the words of the minister
declaring the contracting parties man
and wife. Mr.. Work gave his daughter
away. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. A. Bauman. The bride was
the recipient of many beautiful and
valuable presents. At the close of the
festivities, in the midst of the cOngrat-
ulations and we'll wishes OF the family
and guests, the bride and groom were
taken in Chas Peterson's motor tn
the home prepared for their reception,
one of the Work cottages on Osoyoos
lake, a quiet and lovely spot to pass
the honeymoon.
This wedding was the happy con-
Summation of an engagement contract
ed while the bride and groom were
attending college at Lincoln, Neb.. a
year or two ago. Mr.. Starrett is the
son of prominent and substantial
resident of Central City, Neb. The
young man came to Oroville last win
ter, and after his arrival became con-
nected with the Bank Of OrOville. He
at once won the confidence and esteem
of all with whom he came in contact
by his courtesy, affability and pleas
ing personality. He Is a young gen.
tleman of ability and intelligence, as
well as high moral character The
bride Is the eldest daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. l.. l.. Work, who have resid
ed for years at COnconully and Oro-
Vile, and Is one of the most popular
young ladies in the county. She is a
wOmenly woman. of sweet and lOvable
disposition, and universal favorite
in this community. Such felicitous
union cannot prove otherwise than
fortunate and suspicious. If the future
of the newly mated pair is as bright
and unalloyed as their friends trust
and hope it may be their days on unto
the end will be one continuous season
of JOY. felicity and prosperity.

HEAD OF THE SCHOOL.

Miss Georgian Donald having an
nOnnced that she would not apply for
the principalship of the local school
the newly organized board of school
trustees have employed as principal
to take charge of the schools next
year Prof. Walter G. Riste, a gentle
man admirably fitted and qualified by
education and long experience for the
position. The success that has fol-
lowed his work in the school room
elsewhere will be repeated in Oro-
Vile, and the schools of this place
will stand second to none in eastern
Washington. Prof. Riste received his
education at Indianola high school and
Simpson Centenary college, Iowa. and
the Kansas University. He taught in
Iowa. Nebraska and Kansas before
coming west, everywhere making an
enviable record as an educator. Dur
ing vacation he has done institute and
Normal work, and so great has been
the demand for his services that he
could not meet all the demands made
upon him. He has conducted 80 Nor
mails and commanded the very highest
salaries. He did Normal work at Wat
erville and Conconully, winning the
concentrations of all connected with
the courses. He was principal of the
Waterville high school one year, and
was reelected, but having purchased
ranch near Chopaka, in this county
had to decline to serve longer He is
especially strong with the boys, hav-
ing faculty of interesting them in
school work With such a head it is
hoped in the near future to have a full
ly accredited high school, with courses
in manual training. agriculture. ETC.,
so that the boys and girls can receive
a training that in conjunction with l
thorough public school education will
materially help in making living,

MARK TWAIN IN UNIFORM.
Occasion When the Humorist Posed as
General Sherman.

Albert Bigelow Paine in Harper's
tells of the time when Mark Twain on
his way to West Point to deliver an
address found himself in the same
train with General Sherman, who had
been attending dinner in Hartford.
"A pleasant incident followed. which
Clemens himself used to relate. Gen
eral Sherman attended the banquet and
Secretary of War Robert Lincoln
Next morning Clemens and Twichell
were leaving for West Point, where
they were to address the military stu
dents, guests on the same special train
on which Lincoln and Sherman had
their private car. This car was at the
end of the train, and when the two
passengers reached the station Sher:
man and Lincoln were out on the rear
platform addressing the multitude.
Clemens and Twichell went in and.
taking seats, waited for them.
"As the speakers finished the train
started, but they still remained out
side, bowling and waving to the assem-
bled citizens, so that it was under good
headway before they came in. Sher-
man came up to Clemens. who sat
smoking unconcernedly.
"'Well,' he said, who told you you
could go in this car?
Nobody said Clemens.
"'Do you expect to pay extra fare?
asked Sherman.
"'No,' said Clemens; 4 don't expect
to pay any fare.
"'Oh. you don't! Then you'll work
your way
sherman took off his coat and mill
tary hat and made Clemens put them
on.
"'Now,' said he. whenever the train
stops you get out on the platform and
represent me and make a speech
ut was not long before the train
stopped, and Clemens, according to or
ders, stepped out on the rear platform
and bowed to the crowd. There was
a cheer at the sight Of his military uni
form. Then the cheer waned, became
a murmur of uncertainty, followed by
an undertone of discussion Presently
somebody said:
"'Say, that amt Sherman; that's
Mark Twain which brought another
cheer.
'Then Sherman had to come out, too.
and the result was that both spoke.
They kept this up at the different sta
tions, and sometimes Robert Lincoln
came out with them. and when there
was time all three spoke. much to the
satisfaction of their audiences."'

LAKE OF THE DEAD.
An Uncanny, Mysterious Spot In the
Oban Country, Nigeria.

1t will be a long time before the
shores of the Lake of the Dead in the
Oban country, Nigeria, become popu-
lar for summer resort purposes An
English traveller says: when l be-
lieved / was in the neighborhood of
this haunted spot and altered my
course my carriers begged to be al
lowed not to proceed and were left
behind. After struggle through dense
bush we could see the edge of sheet
of water, along the banks of which
were the holes of crocodiles. whose
tracks covered the shore. The scene
was a weird one. The surface of the
water was absolutely still, and round
about were ten foot high bushes, with
what were apparently great tufts of
Deamy flowers. These, however, proved
to be nests of tree frogs.
1.-The place is sanctuary for all wild
things, for no hunter would dare to
spot. AS we stood at the edge, gazing
put over the water, it's quiet was sud
denly broken by a broad ripple, and
little fish were seen TO spring agitated-
Yy above the surface. A great python
was crossing, and this. we learned,
shared with the crocodiles the guard
ianship of the sacred lake. Nothing,
we were informed, must be allowed
to trouble the water or even to touch
Its outer edge or famine and pestilence
would epsue,
"Here, according to popular belief.
come by night the ghosts of long dead
Ekoi to drift in sad companies hope
less and waiing over the surface of
the water. Even in the bright sun
light the place has an uncanny look,
and one can easily imagine that at
midnight, when the white mists SHIN
mer ghostlike in the light of the moon,
people with the terror and mystery
of the bush in their blood would
rather sit chatting around the fire or
dance by torchlight In the open spaces
of the towns than seek out this un-
eanny spot."-Chicago News.

Thistelton-Dyer, in his Royalty In
All Ages" describes two dramatic
and tragically contrasted episodes In
the life of Marie Antoinette, the lovely
and i'll fated queen of France. Once,
in the days of her greatest popularity,
when she went to the opera of "Iphi-
genia," when Achilles came to the line
LET us sing and celebrate the queen
he turned toward the radiant young
sovereign and sang two additional i'm
promptu lines of charming compliment.
This graceful and unexpected homage
so delighted the audience that ''all was
shouting and clapping of hands, and
what never happened at the opera be-
fore - the chorus was encOred, and
there were cries of Long live the
queenv at. which expression of feeling
her majesty was 30 affected that she

On the next occasion. when Marie
Antoinette's sun of popular favor had
set and she was nearing the tragic
close of her life. one Of the actresses in
Unforeseen Events bowed to her as
she sang the words, "Ah. how | love
my mistressr' In moment all was in
uproar. and the theater was full of
hoarse. angry cries of "No mistress!
No master. Liberty" and mo master!
No queen" and 1t was some minutes
before the tumult quIeted down and ii
was possible to proceed with the play.
