A Pretty Church Wedding.

At St. Clements church, on We'd
nesday morning, January 20, Miss
Jospehine Ohlert was united in mar
riage to Clarence Morehouse, in the
company of a large number of per-
sonal friends and relatives. The
groom is a successful young farmer
of South Lancaster, while the bride
has for several years been a trusted
employe of E. L. Mccoy in his in
surance office.
Miss Genevieve Belken was brides
maid, and Fred Vogt, of Glen Haven,
was best man. The bride was gown
ed in white shadow lace over white
crepe de chene. The bridesmaid wore
pink chiffon over pink silk. After
the ceremony a wedding breakfast
was served at the home of the brides :
mother, Mrs. Florence Ohlert. The
happy couple left Lancaster on the
afternoon train for trip that
covered Darlington, Cuba City and
other points near by. In the early
spring they will settle down to life
on the farm in the town of Potosi.

Purchasing Power of Farmers

The purchasing power of the far
mer depends not only upon the money
value of what he produces, but also
upon the money value of what he
buys. From 1899 to 1909 Census
years. the money value of acre of
the farmers crops increased 1877 per
cent, but in the same period the
money value of the articles usually
purchased by farmers had increased
1872 per cent; consequently, as a
result of the greater increase in the
price of what a farmer sold than in
the price of what he bought, the net
increase in the purchasing power of
the produce of 1 acre was "a per
cent: that is, acre of the farmers
crop in 1909 could buy 81 per cent
more of the articles usually bought
by farmers than in 1899.
Upon the basis of the purchasing
power of the value of / acre of pro-
duce, the year 1909 stands as the
most prosperous for farmers of the
past so years for which there are
records.

OLD CLOTHING NEEDED.
Appeal Made by Milwaukee to the
People of Wisconsin.

Owing to the industrial depres-
sion which exists universally there
are thousands of people in every in
dustrial center who are out of work
and in need of help. Milwaukee has
a large problem in providing the
poor with clothing and other neces-
stiles. A number of towns about
the state, especially farming COM
munities which have no pressing
poverty problem to solve, have
already come to the aid of the As
ISOLATED Charities of Milwaukee by
contributing old clothing.
If the organizations, churches and
schools of the towns which are so
fortunate as to be without large num-
bers of needy people will gather up
all the old clothing which can be
spared and send it to the Associated
Charities, Milwaukee, they will be
providing warmth and comfort for
hundreds and perhaps thousands of
people. Many towns are already en-
gagged in this work, why not Lancas-
ter?

Brothers Cremated.

Two brothers by the name of
Middlen, over at Highland, were
burned in their bed last week Tues
day night. They were laborers, one
of them an underground workman in
one of the mines, and unmarried.
They lived together, in a cottage,
keeping batch.''
Neighbors saw them go to their home
Tuesday afternoon, and about mid
night the community Was awake ned
by the burning of their house. The
bodies of the men were lying close
together, indicating that they
had slept in the same bed. When
the fire was subdued, it was found
that the legs and heads of the victims
were burned beyond recognition.
Evidently they had been suffocated by
gas from the heating stove, and
probably the house was fired by the
over-heating of the stove. The
names of the men were Charles and
Joseph Middlen. They are survived
by mother, who lives at Montfort,
and two brothers, Daniel and Thomas,
who live at Highland.

Ever since the building of the Chi
cago Short Line railway began to be
stirred up there has been much feel
ing manifest by the partisans pro and
con. When the pros did not get
busy, the cons did, and at spells it
looked as if both sides were whoop-
ing-it-up at the same time.
That being the case, there are a
plenty of people living in Lancaster
who will be glad enough that for the
present the whole mess is settled.
The special election of yesterday
brought out large vote and it seems
to be the general opinion that the
ballots were fairly cast and honestly
counted.
At no time was there any consider
able excitement at the polling places,

Bridesmaid at a Wedding il
Minnesota.

From a full column description in
the Dell Rapids minnesota Times
Tribune, which comes to this office,
it appears that a young lady from
Lancaster was bridesmaid at a very
pretty wedding recently celebrated in
that city. The contracting parties
were Miss Eva Catherine Glennon
and Steven Alonzo Burke. The cere-
mony was performed in the Catholic
church at Dell Rapids, the Rev.
Father C. c. Boley, officiating.
At this wedding Miss Genevieve
Meysembourg, of Lancaster, was
bridesmaid, she being cousin of the
bride. 1t appears that the church
was beautifully decorated for the oc-
casion, and that the home of the
brides mother, where a sumptuous
breakfast was served after the cere-
mony, was charmingly adorned with
flowers.

A CHICAGO BURGLAR
MEETS HIS WATERLOO
Lancaster Business Man Cap
lures Mr.. Light Fingers.
Tom Haley Keeps an Eye on Main
Chance, Disregarding His
Scanty Attire.

Tom Haley and his business partner,
Clint Edwards, went to Chicago last
week and had quite a thrilling ex-
perience while there. They were
stopping at a down town hotel and by
an oversight had failed to lock the
door of their room opening into the
hall. Tom was awakened in the
morning by hearing slight rustling
sound in the room and turning over in
bed discovered strange man in the
room, going through the pockets of
Edwards trousers, which had been
folded and laid on the dresser the
night before.
"What are you doing in this
room," called Tom, and as the thief
made no reply but made a rush for
the door, which was ajar, Tom made
a flying leap out of bed and caught
the intruder just as he was passing
into the hall. He succeeded in break
ing away, and Tom, forgetting how
scantily he was attired, gave chase
down the hall, at the same time call
ing for the police.
He succeeded in catching the thief
in a short hallway on the next floor
below and had him by the collar, up
against the wall, when the house
policeman and husky porter arrived
upon the scene and took him in
charge. Then Tom went back to his
room and dressed. Clint, in the
meantime, had been awakened and
was hastily dressing to take part in
the fray.
The thief, who was a we'll dressed,
gentlemanly looking man between
fifty and sixty years of age, was
brought before the court next day,
was convicted and sentenced to a
years Imprisonment. Mr.. Edwards
recovered what money had been
stolen, with the exception of seven
dollars, which could not be found.
A visit to the city seems to be not
without its pleasures and interesting
features, provided you are in luck.
