Miss Ada Horne and Mr.. Earl
Thurston were united in mar
riage last evening, taking their
many friends by surprise, as well
as the "old folks" who were
somewhat opposed to the match
on account of the youthfulness
of the bride. who is still in her
teens.
To override the parental OBJ
jections, the bride and groom
went to the home of his brother,
Mr.. Ed Thurston, and at the ap-
pointed hour the minister arrived
on the scene and in a short time
the words were spoken that made
them husband and wife.
The bride is the youngest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. o. M.
Horne and is an attractive young
woman; while the groom is a
we'll and favorably known mem
Der of the Fitzgerald Fire De-
parta ent.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thurston will
make their home with Mr.. and
Mrs. E. ]. Thurston, where they
are now receiving the congratu-
lations Of their many friends.

CANDIDATES IN FIELD
FOR M'NULTY'S POSITION

Aberdeen, S. D, Sept. 20.-Three can
didates are already in line for appoint
ment as judge of the Fifth circuit to
succeed Judge Frank McNulty, who
has announced that he will resign
shortly on account of his candidacy
for the republican nomination for con-
gress from the Second district, and
there is probably more to come. The
three candidates are Thomas L.. Bouck,
of Milbanz. Frank Anderson, of Web
ster, and Clarence C. Newcomb, of
Aberdeen.
Newcomb is a tentative, rather than
an active candidate, having stated that
some of his friends among the Aber-
deem attorneys have suggested his cam
didacy and that he is considering the
matter. Anderson and Bouck are both
avowed candidates. 1t is probable the
Aberdeen Bar association will soon
hold a meeting to decide Upon its choice
for the place, and hat later the bar
of the Fifth circuit will hold a meeting
for the same purpose.
Some OF the Aberdeen lawyers hold
that an outsider should be chosen for
the place. inasmuch as Aberdeen al
ready has W. candidates for the nomi-
nation for congress, in McNulty and
Attorney General Johnson.

than $500, nor more than S. 900 for each
