Spokane, Wash, Dec 16.-Unable
to write their names, Meas Skumen-

er of Rockford, Wash, and Louisa
Larose, an India girl of Wellpinit, left
their fingerprints at the office of
county Auditor R. w. Butler, after
which they departed with their eager
sought marriage license. The finger
prints were the first ever taken in
such case at the Spokane county of
flee, as witnesses usually merely
make mark with the pen.
The wedding party, which proceed
ed from the Office of the county audi
tor to St Aloysius' church, where the
ceremony was performed, was one Of
the happiest and most gorgeous for
raiment that ever entered the court
house doors. When informed that
they could either leave their finger
prints or make their marks on the rec
ords, the grinning couple signifed
their intention of doing both.
The bride is the granddaughter Of
Paul Oyakin, we'll known for his ac-

fair in this city. The grizzled Indian
smiled broadly as his granddaughter
