CELEBRATE GOLDEN WEDDING.

CELEBRATE GOLDEN WEDDING.
FIFTY YEARS AGO JULY 2, JOHN
Vanderslice and Miss Eliza White
were married in Columbia county,
Pennsylvania, and the anniversary
was fittingly observed yesterday at
their Milan home. In 1878 they left
their native state and came west, set
Ting in Milan taking up their home
on Squire John Dickson's farm. Mr.
Vanderslice in tilling the soil had an
able helpmate in his wife, who stood
nobly by him in all the trials and vi
cissitudes of life. AS the years went
by they toiled, rearing their children
and adding little by little to their COM
potency for the future, and today they
own a nice home in Fairview where
they enjoy life. Eight children were
born to this union, four of whom are
living, Lester, Newton, Alvin and Mrs.
Jennie LOBBY. The venerable couple in
tended the day should be quietly spent
but relatives and members OF the
w. NJ. B. society hastily planned a
surprise party and late in the after
noon they gathered at the home to
help the couple celebrate the golden
anniversary. In the evening a sump-
tuous wedding feast was served. All
enjoyed themselves to the fullest ex-
tent and 1t was the wish of all pres
ent that Mr.. and Mrs. Vanderslice
might be spared TO celebrate their
diamond anniversary.

is financed by local capital and will
be of ample capacity to care. for
the cream from one thousand COWS.
Those wanting cows, separators or
cream cans should apply at once to
the secretary at Nashville. The
organization will now book orders
for delivery beginning April /.

joke. but real butter and real bust
ness. Business is solicited for the

for it.

Is Harve Parks
Drowned?

The friends and relatives of
Harvey Parks fear that he has been
drowned He disappeared Tuesday,
the l7th of November. and no trace
has been had of him since. On
the evening of the above date he
was towed, in his row boat. by the
launch Transit from u few miles
below Elk City to that place, and
was last seen unloading groceries
and household effects from his boat.
He had carried some of the goods
ashore but left some in his boat.
1t was very dark at the time and it
is feared that he fell into the river.
Mr.. Parks is between fifty and
sixty years old. lives alone. having
home at Elk City and one at To-
'ledo. and is very eccentric. He
frequently takes trips from home
without telling anyone of his GO
ing, but this time, by his leaving
before finishing unloading his boat
and caring for his effects makes all
believe he has drown.
Enquiry in every place he usual
ly visits reveal nothing. The river
at Elk City has been dragged but
without results.
Mr.. Parks is six foot, six inches
tall and is very stopped. His un-
usual height makes him noticeable
anywhere and it seems if he had
gone away on visit someone would
have noticed him. His nephew,
Paris Parks, offers a reward of $40
for any information as to his where
