Levee, on the east side Of the Missfs-

broke this morning and the flood wa
ters are rapidly spreading over some

Fifteen hundred men, including sew
eral hundred convicts, had been work
ing day and night for week in a
desperate effort to rebuild the levee
which was carried away last spring.
Last night the new levee was several
feet above the water, but the river
was rising rapidly, and when the new
foundation settled suddenly this morn
ing the embankment all went out with
roar.

kROHN-F RIDEL.

A beautiful but quiet home wedding
took place at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. V. Fridel, Sr., on Tuesday, jan
uary 21. The parlor, sitting room and
dining room were all decorated in
green and white, holly being especial
ly used. Early Tuesday morning, after
the bride and groom had received
blessing from the brides parents, the
bridal party started for Bryan, where
they were married at st. Joseph's
Catholic Church at the 10 o'clock
mass. Strictly at 10 o'clock the pro-
cesison formed in front of the church
.and marched up to the altar, where
the solemn ceremony took place dur
ing mass by Rev. ]. B. Gleissner.
The bride wore dress Of filmy
white chiffon draped over white satin
trimmed with rich lace. Her veil was
fastened with orange blossoms. She
wore no ornaments excepting a pearl
brooch, the gift of the groom.
A striking contrast was made by
the four bridesmaids and maid of
honor, who were dressed in blue crepe
de chine trimmed with ruffles of the
same material and little rosebuds of
blue satin ribbon finished with a
rosette of the ribbon.
After the ceremony the bridal party
Immediately returned to Kurten, the
home of the bride, where congratula-
tions followed and then all went into
the dining room to partake of the good
old-fashioned dinner which evidently
was prepared by skillful hands and
was served in Russian style.
After luncheon music and different
anusements followed The occasion
was closed with a few well arranged
tabeaux, after which the guests be-
gan to depart.
The bride is daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. V. Fridel, Sr., of Kurten, where
she was reared. She is loved by all
who know her and is always known
to lend helping hand wherever it is
needed
The groom is well known young
man of North Zulch, where he is high
ly respected. Everyone wished them
both much happiness, for they were
sweethearts sixteen years-since child
hood. They will make their home at
North Zulch.
