OLSON-WINJUM NUPTiALS

Last Friday at the home of the
brides parents near Albert Lea, Mimi,
occurred the wedding of Orrin o.
Olson of Bookings, and Miss Clara
Winjum. The ceremony was perform
ed by Rev. Norman of Window, Mimi,
a brother-in-law of the groom, and was
witnessed by only the immediate re-
latives. The service which was simple
but impressive took place at five
o'clock in the afternoon.
The young couple took their places
to the strains of Mendelssohn's we'd
ding march, played by Miss Eva Olson,
a sister of the groom, and they were
unattended.
After the service a ~three-course
wedding dinner was served by the
brides sisters.
The brides dress was of white silk
crepe de chine and she carried a bou-
quet Of brides roses.
After a short stay with the brides
parents, Mrs. and Mrs. Olson left on
their honeymoon trip. They went to
the Twin Cities and from there are
taking the river trip to st. Louis.
Mr.. and Mrs. Olson will make their
home in Brookings, where the groom
is one of our prominent young business
men.
The Register joins with the large
circle of friends here in extending
hearty congratulations and best
wishes.

EGAN GETS $4,000

The libel suit of Geo. w. Egan VS..
the Watertown Public Opinion came
to a close on Monday evening, the case
being given to the jury shortly before
the supper hour. The jury were out
celebrating all night and at ten
o'clock Tuesday morning they reported
giving Mr.. Egan a verdict of $4,000.
The case was hard fought on both
sides and lasted just a week. The
closing arguments on Monday after
noon attracted a crowd that complete.
ly filled the court room.
The defendant was granted a stay
of 80 days in which to make applica-
ton for a new trial, and the general
impression seems to be that the case
will be carried to the supreme court.
Tuesday the court took up the case
of Noragard VS.. Noragard. a suit of
brother against brother over property
interests, and it was not completed
until last night. 1t is thought that
the remaining ase on the calendar
will be disposed of by Saturday night.

WORK OF COUNTY ENGINEER

At the last meeting of the CONNER
cial Club directors the question OF a
county engineer for Brookings coun,
ty was discussed and it was the unani.
mou opinion that there is urgent need
of such an official, not only in Brook
ings county but in every county in the
state. The matter was taken up again
at the regular meeting Of the club Fri
day evening and a resolution was un.
animously passed asking the
county board to employ such
an Official. Every Minnesota
county and every Iowa county has
such an official and these states are
satisfied that 1t means a big saving to
them. In order to get some frst-hand
information on the subject L. G. Hyde
wrote to- e. w. Dunn, a graduate of

that the club should endeavor to get
the farmers in the territory surround
ing Brookings to become members of
the club. He said that other nearby
towns were cooperating with the
farmers and he thought hat we
should offer them a very liberal mem
bership rate. President Carlisle said
that the matter had been discussed
by the club in the past, but nothing
had ever come of it.

was not so sure but what he might

had a good word to say for Bookings

said hat many people had a wrong
conception of the duties of a CONNER

said, could not go out and build a rail
road every year, but If they did moth

our citizens to attend.
Prof. Solberg gave a talk on good
roads and the need of more and bet

Charles E. Hall said that the club

carried and Mr.. Hall was placed in

CHANGE AT FARMERS NATIONAL

An important change in local bank
ing circles took place this week, when
H. F. Haroldson assumed the position
Of cashier of the Farmers National
bank, having purchased the interest of
Peter Binford and T. L. Chappell. At
a meeting of the directors Monday
evening Mr.. Haroldson was elected
cashier and director and c. d. Kendall
was named as director to succeed Mr..
Binford.
Some weeks ago Mr.. Haroldson
severed his connection with the First
National bank, having been connect
ed with that institution over twenty
years, a gooi part Of which he served
as cashier. Ee understands every
phase of the banking business and is
popular with the people of Brookings
and vicinity and his connection with
the Farmers should be a big help to
that institution. Mr.. Chappell found
ed the Farmers National about fifteen
years ago and by a careful business
policy he has gradually built up the
bank to a strong financial institution.
He is undecided as to what he will do
and may remain here permanently
He still has large holdings in Brook
ings that will demand his attention,
and Bookings people will hope that
he comes to this decision.

A GOLDEN

Last Thursday, June 10, Mr.. and
Mrs. c. X. Fjerstad celebrated their
golden wedding anniversary at their
home on Medary avenue, which was
decorated with the American and Nor
wegian flags.
The old couple, Mr.. Fjerstad Is and
his wife 70, were married in Bale
strand, Norway, April 18th, 1865. His
father and grandfather were both mar
ried on June 10 and both lived to
celebrate their golden wedding, SO for
this reason Mr.. and Mrs. Fjerstad
celebrated their happy event on the
same date, making it a triple golden
wedding anniversary. Mr.. Fierstad and
his father and grandfather all bore the
same name and were all three born
in the same house. His father lived
to be so years old, his grandfather to
SO and his great grandfather passed
away at the age of 100.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fjerstad were blessed
with eight children, five of whom are
living, three sons and two daughters.
Mr.. Fjerstad was an officer in the
Norwegian army for over twelve years
and was professor in a seminary for
five years. In 1873 Mr.. and Mrs.
Fjerstad started for America, and in
the North Sea their ship, the Walky-
rien collided with and sank another
ship and they had much difficulty in
getting to Dover, England.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fjerstad's first resi-
dence in America was fifteen miles
west Of Rochester, MINI. Soon after
they arrived Mr.. Fjerstad began teach
ing school, having a class of thirty
scholars to which he taught religion
and other Earnings"
In 1878 Mr.. Fjerstad brought his
family to Brookings county, locating
in Oak Lake township, being among
the pioneers of the county. The fol-
lowing year he gathered together the
children of the neighborhood, both in
Brookings and Deuel. counties, for in
struction in his own home.
Mr.. Fjerstad has been a teacher in
America for forty-two years and has
taught over a thousand scholars here.
Including his teaching service in Nor
way he has been a teacher over fifty
four years and has taught 5000 scho-
lars. He taught school as late as last
summer, but has now decided to re-
linquish the work to younger hands.
About fifty of the nearest relatives
were present at the celebration, com
ing from this county, Arlington, Estel-
line, Toronto, Astoria, Sioux Falls and
Medicine Lake, Montana. A brother
of Mr.. Fjerstad and a brother of Mrs.
Fjerstad who witnessed the wedding
in Norway fifty years ago, were pres
ent. Many beautiful presents were
presented to the bride and groom as a
ltSlllliOuy VI Tic ltSdIu III Which, IUty
are held.
The celebration of the happy event
lasted all day and the following pro-
gram was carried out: Manuscript
reading Of the family's record for 200
years. Prayer, Norwegian song, bible
reading, several talks in English and
Norwegian, and songs in
both languages. A fine wedding din
ner was served.
The guests considered it both an
honor and a pleasure to be present at
this unusual and happy event and they
wished Mr.. and Mrs. Fjerstad many
more years of health and happiness.
