Shaw-Ambold Wedding.
One of the prettiest weddings of
the winter took place at high noon on
Tuesday, the 10th Of February, when
Miss Dora M. Ambold was married
70 Mr.. Ralph r, Shaw at the Ambold
home in the Animas valley. The fact
that the young people selected the sill
yer anniversary of the brides parents
for their wedding day gave special
significance to the occasion.
Just two minutes before noon Miss
Thelma Bovee began Mendelssohn 8
Wedding March and the briday party
entered the parlor where the guests
we're already assembled. They were
met at the altar by the Rev. J. Alonzo
DAILY, and took their stand under a
huge white bell trimmed with white
and pink carnations and ferns. Just
as the clock struck the hour of twelve,
the ceremony began, the impressive
double-ring service being used.
The bride was very lovely in white
messaline gown with silver trimmings
and the customary long tulle veil.
She carried large bouquet of white
carnations tied with pink ribbons,
while her bridesmaid. Miss Lottie
Ambold, wore pink brocaded silk, and
carried pink carnations tied with
white silk ribbons. The groom was
attended by his brother, Mr.. A. ".
Shaw, acting as ''best man.
After the guests had greeted
the newly-made couple, all went to
the dining room where two long
tables fairly groaned under the
weight of the bountiful wedding din
ner. The table decorations and place
cards also carried out the color
scheme of pink and white, even to
the ice cream.
The bride is one of Durango's
best liked young ladies, having
a host of friends and well wishers.
The groom is ranger Of the Du-
range national forest service and on
account of his work the young couple
will postpone their honeymoon trip
until later in the year. They went at
once to the Pinkerton ranger station
to start housekeeping, which is one
of the prettiest locations in the Ami
mas valley In this they are especi-
ally well equipped for their new start
in life for among the numerous we'd
ding presents are many that combine
usefulness with beauty. Not the least
of these was generous check from
the brides parents, the proportions of
which preceptibly increased their
bank account.

CHARIvARI.
The popularity of Mr.. and Mrs. r,
r. Shaw was warmly attested last
Tuesday evening when charivarl
party of about forty from the younger
set in the Animas valley assaulted
the Pinkerton ranger station at p
m. The attacking force, which con
tained several of the young lady
friends of Mrs. Shaw and flanked by
host of the wellwishers of the Her
inosa ranger, started the festivities
with plenty of the usual noise-rosin'
ed panks and guns-but the besieget
station quickly capitulated and a very
hilarious evening was the result.
