One of the prettiest home weddings
of the season was solemnized ut
twelve o'clock today at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Holberg, one
mile south of town on the Good
Thunder road, when their daughter,
Bertha and Paul Leatherman, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Martin Leatherman
and Miss Elsie Leatherman, sister of
Paul, and Clarence w. Camp, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. l.. e. Camp, were
united in marriage in the presence
of their immediate relatives. A. w
Kuehl, pastor of the Seventh Day
Adventist church, performed the
ceremony. The brides were both
daintily attired in pretty gowns of
white crepe de chine and lace and
wore long wells made in cap effect
and carried bouquets of brides rose
and lilies of the valley. Following
the ceremony an elegant wedding
dinner was served, covers being laid
for thirty guests. These four young
people have grown up in this vicinity
and are well and favorably known.
Both Mr.. Camp and Mr.. Leathernan

Bridal Shower
Twenty young ladies gathered at a
very prettily arranged parcel shower
which was given in honor of Miss
Paula Bruss, by the Misses Anna Har-
tig and Louise Kehms, at the latter's
home on Wheeler avenue last night
Miss Bruss had not the remotest idea
what was going to happen and was
blindly taken to the home of Miss
Kehms. Ribbons were stretched by
Misses Lydia Knaub and Clara Frey
from the chair of honor to the door
which formed an aisle, and Miss Anna
John softly played Lohengrin's march

In announcing my candidacy for councilman at the coming election, l want the voters and taxpayers to know just howl stand on matters per taining to the welfare of Seward.
 l believe the standard of our public schools should be equal to any in AL aska.
 l believe in public improvements on sane and business like plan. do not believe in squandering monies. l believe in conducting the business of the city on the same conservative plan in which business men conduct their private affairs.

 l believe in bringing the assessed valuation of Seward down to where it justly belongs. l believe in a tax levy sufficient to conduct the affairs of the town for the ensuing year-Our assessed valuation is too high. l believe in maintaining an up-to- date Fire Department and paying the volunteers sufficiently to awaken a new and greater interest in the de- partment. Their efforts have not been fully appreciated.
 Water For Fire Protection.
 If the Council is aware of insufici- ent water for fire protection it is up to them to arrange for it, and if necessary, install an auxiliary salt water pumping station, an emergency station. believe that all Federal property enjoying the protection of the police and fire departments should bear their share of the burden and up keep of these departments, and with the proper cooperation with the Federal Commission this may be obtained.
 believe in employing the Oldtimers on all city work so far as is consist ent, and paying not less than 50 cents per hour therefor.
 If the above platform appeals to you, l ask your vote.

and How 1t can be Made

join the sleeves to the armholc edges,
 taking care that the notches meet exactly and that the single perforations
 are at the shoulder seams. Then close
 the under-arm and sleeve seams and in
 both cases use the double seams. For
 the loose sleeves illustrated you have
 cut off below the line of perforations
 and that means that you have straight
 lower edges, To make the finish
 shown in the illustration, cut straight
 strips of taffcta one inch in width and
 make two the exact length of the
 sleeves and join the ends, then seam
 one long edge to each sleeve with the
 scam on the right side and turn up over the sleeves. Turn the outer edges under for one-quarter of an inch and blind stitch into place. If you have used the one-quarter inch scam, as you should have done, for the single seam, you will have a band one-half inch in width. Make double frills of the crepe and arrange them over the sleeves two inches above the lover edges. Cut strips of taffeta one inch in width and turn each edge under for quarter of an inch. Arrange over the upper edge of the frills and blind stitch into place. To finish the back edges of transparent materials, it is we'll to vary little from the directions on the envelope. Turn both edges under on the seam, then turn again one-quarter of an inch within the perforations in place of on them, then when you close the blouse you can lap the right side over the left for the depth of one-quarter of an inch and this quarter of an inch will be enough to hold the snap fasteners.
 Make the placket on the skirt and join the edges as directed on the en- velope, then gather at the upper edge and haste to the lining Cut straight strip of material one and one-quarter inches in width and sew one long edge in with the seam. Turn this material up under the lining or guimpe, and fell the remaining edge into place.
 The over-bodice is very simple. Close the shoulder and the under-arm seams with the double seams as directed and finish the back edges as directed on the envelope, if taffeta is used. If transparent material is used follow the method advised for the guimpc. For the finish of the edges, cut bias strips of material one and one-half inches in width Fold the long edges under to meet at the center and turn the seam on the garment over on the right side slasliing the edges at the armholes or wherever there is a curve to make the material lie flat. Apply bands over these edges and blind stitch the edges into place. Gather the over-bodice on the two lines of perforatons at the waist line and draw the shirrings up until the waists fits the belt. The belt will be attached to the right side and will serve as a stay but the left side must be made strong. To do this, cut little strip of your silk or of the lining silk little wider than the gathers and turn the edges under Arrange under these gathers and stitch into place. To finish the belt cut a lining exactly like the out side either of the plaid silk or ot the plain silk.

ADMIRAL, FISKE
 QUITS THE NAVY

Washington, June 13.-The United States navy lost one of it's best known
 officers today by the retirement for
 age of Rear Admiral Bradley A.
 Fiske. Admiral Fiske was one of the
 last survivors on the active list of the officers who fought with Dewey at Manila Bay. Until about year ago he was aid for operations in the navy department, position he relinquisbed because of views concerning the ad- istration of the various fleets that did not coincide with the ideas of Secre- tary Daniels. Subsequently he was attached to the naval war college. This spring he was called upon to testify before the house committee on naval affairs and was outspoken in his criti- cism of the navy.
 Admiral Fiske was born at Lyons, N. Y., June IS, 1854, and was gradu- ated from the Annapolis academy in 1874 with second honors in his class He was navigator of the Petrel at the battle of Manila, and was reported by her captian for "eminent and conspic- ous conduct in battle," and by Ad- miral Dewey for "heroic conduct"
 As flag officer he served as divis- ion commander with marked success and was at the head of the fleet tact ical board. In training for the duties of higher command he had an unusual experience. Twice in attendance at the naval war college, he afterward served as a member of the general board. He was also one of the joint board on the Panama canal defenses.
 In the course of his varied service Admiral Fis ke has written many arti- cles of great interest and instructive value on professional topics, particu- larly on naval policy and strategy and tactics.
 He is also the inventor of a number of valuable instruments and appara- tus, most of which are for naval use. His most important inventions are an for lowering and hoisting ships boats in a seaway, an electrical range finder, the naval telescope sight, the electric warning whistle which has been used in all recent ships, the electric semaphore of day signals, the naval telescope mount, the turret range finder, and the stadin,e- ter, a portable optical instrument for quickly determining the distance of

It is the story of the small boy who was watching the speakers procession as it wended it's way through the lobby First came the sneaker, then the chaplain, and next the other officers.
 "Who, father. is that gentleman ?'' said the small boy, pointing to the chaplain.
 That, my son." said the father, "is the chaplain of the house.
 Docs he pray for the members ?" asked the small boy. The father thought minute and then said: tg
