POPULAR COUPLE WE'D

Last evening at eight o'clock at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Ole Knutson
occurred the marriage of their daught-
er, Miss Agnes Geneva Knutson and
Gustav j. Flittie. Rev. H. Fosnes, pas
tor Of the Lutheran church, per-
formed the ceremony, which was wit
messed by only the immediate reIa-
tives and a few friends. The young
couple were unattended.
Two solos, before and after the
ceremony. were beautifully rendered
by Miss Edith Hubbart. Following
the service a delicious wedding sup
per was served in the dining room.
The rooms We're prettily decorated
with flowers and plants, pink and
white being the colors predominating.
The bride vas charmingly gowned
in a dress of white handkerchief linen,
trimmed with lace.
Mr.. and Mrs. Flittie left on the
night train for a several weeks trip
through eastern states, visiting Chi
cago, New York and New England.
The out Of town guests were Mr..
and Mrs. o. H. Aslackson of Candy,
uncle and aunt OF the bride, and AL
bert Aslackson Of Volga, an uncle Of
the bride.
There are few young people in the
city more popular than the parties to
last evenings happy event, and they
have a host Of friends who will ex-
tend best wishes. The bride vas
born in Brookings, is a graduate Of
the State college, and a most charm
ing young lady, endowed with all the
qualities Of mind and heart to make
her husband an ideal helpmate. Mr..

ings for several years, coming here to

ant cashier, and he is a most worthy
young man The Register extends its
congratulations.

VOLGA "WETS" WIN.

The Volga case which was on trial
when We went to press last week was
concluded Thursday noon, the deci-
sion of the court being in favor of
the prohibition element. The ase
grew out of the effort to bring the IL
cense question to a vote this spring.
The necessary number of signers
We're secured, but the "drys" brought
the case into court on the claim that
n or two of the signers were not
freeholders, as required by law, hav-
ing only a contract for deed to show
that they were property wners.
Judge Seward held that they were not
freeholders in the meaning of the sta
tute and the "drys" we're jubilant.
However, by an odd coincidence
the state supreme court handed down
a decision the same day in a case
exactly similar, taking an opposite
view from that of Judge Seward, so
Hall, Alexander, Roddle & Purdy, at
torneys for the 'wets," applied for a
rehearing which was granted. This
was held at WATERFOWL Monday and
Judge Seward reversed his former de-
%cision, which was the only course
open to him after the decision of the
supreme court, and the people of Vol
ga will therefor vote upon the license
question next Tuesday.
The supreme court judges were not
unanimous upon the question, how
ever, the vote being three to two.
Judge Smith wrote the decision, which
was concurred in by Judges Haney
and Mccoy, and Judges Corson and
Whiting dissented. The decision held
that the holder of a contract for deed
was in fact the owner of the property
and he and the party in whom the
title was vested occupied the posi-
tions OF mortgage and m%ortgagor.
The scene of the battle between the
"wets" and "drys" has now been
transferred to Volga and a merry
scrap will be on until the last ballot
is cast Tuesday.

TO have this music repeated which
will probably be done one week from
next Sabbath evening, April 21st.
The Easter services of the Metho-
dist church were ~inspirational and i'm
pressive. In the morning the choir,
assisted by other talent rendered the
cantata Easter Message" by Lorenz.
Miss Ostroot, the popular director, ad-
ded another C to her many well
earned laurels. Miss Francis Carlisle
presided at the piano releasing the
regular pianist for an important place
in the chorus. The so'os We're taken
by DR.. Ro%deheaver, Robert Elliott,
Mrs. j. H. Roberts and Miss Ostroot.
The pastor made a brief, appropriate
address, and gave the right hand of
fellowship to new members coming
by letter from other places. The Sab
bath school observed Easter by max
ing it the day for the annual mission
airy program and offering. Much en-
thusiasm was aroused as class after
class exceeded their apportionment.
The aggregate received was consider
ed a generous contribution, being about
II hundred and forty dollars. Sew
eral scholars We're received into full
church fellowship at the Sabbath
school hour. A large congregation
gathered again in the evening to hear
a sermon-lecture upon the life of
Christ illustrated by more than fifty
stereopticon views of the Passion
Play Of Oberammergau. These fine
pictures were presented as rapidly as
their meaning could be explained. Mr..
Black also gave a brief address upon
the relation of the church to the dra-
ma in general, and the Passion Play
in particular. The floral decorations
for the day were not elaborate, but
were arranged with such excellent
taste that the effect was decidedly
pleasing, The day was full of good
things, and will linger long in mem

ALDERMEN
ARE NOMINATED
THE DIFFERENT WARDS OF THE
CITY HOLD CAUCUSES ON
SATURDAY
NOMINATED IN THE THIRD
The Ex-AIderman is Again Placed in
Running for Honor-A Warm
Contest in the Fourth Ward.

The four wards of the city held
their ward caucuses on Saturday
evening, but on account of the short
notice given in each case there was
not a very big turnout of the voters
at any of the caucuses.
In the First ward there was no con-
test and no opposition to giving AL
derman A.. Hoover the honor and
glory-and work-of representing the
people of the college district in the
council for another two years.
In the Second ward conditions were
the same, Alderman O.. O. Jermstad
having no opposition.
There was something doing in the
Third, of course. 1t will be a pretty
cold day when the Third cannot stir
up a contest. Ex-Alderman w. H.
Conklin, Will Poole, B. ID. Moore, r.
II. Bartlett and w. F. Roskie were the
by a majority of 2 over his nearest
opponent, there being a light vote
cast. There are rumors that this ward
will have an Independent candidate,
and it would be surprising if it did
not. These rumors were verified this
morning when Will Poole filed as an
independent candidate.
The warmest contest was in the
Fourth ward, where there were three
candidates whose friends put in con-
siderable valuable time electioneer-
ing for them. The candidates were
j. H. Roberts, T. S. LeFevre and
liver Dybdahl. Mr.. Roberts was nomi-
mated by a substantial majority, hav.
ing 81 votes to ~ for each of his OPP
ponents.
The city election will be held next
Tuesday and from present indications
there will be a very light vote cast in
at least three Of the wards. The First
ward votes in the ward house on
Seventh street, the Second ward in
the G. A. r. hall, Third ward in the
new city hall, and the Fourth ward
in the E. |. Briggs residence.

New Orleans, June 17.-After travelling 122 miles through the lower Barataria dis trict, Secretary M. B. Trezevant, who has been in charge of the flood relief funds. returned here yesterday and said that 1000 persons in that territory were in im- mediate need of rations and other sup plies. He said the water from the Fly lnelia crevasse had risen five feet and was over the floors of the dwellings; that scores had no places to sleep except their skins, and that they were suffering from exposure and lack of food
 Actual conditions can hardly be de- scribed," said he. Related reports from Franklin and Yermllion bay last night stated four persons lost their lives in last weeks storm Rising waters have stopped train service on the Grand Isle railroad and the only means of communi- cation is by boat.
 It is not believed any effort will be made soon to close the Hymelia break and flood conditions are expected to continue until fall.
