HYMENEAL
MARRIAGE OF MIR. JOE WESLEY
Fits AND MISS GERTRUDE
CLARK AT NORTH VA
kINLA, WASH.

Madison friends Of the family will
be interested in the following report
of the marriage of Mr.. Joe Wesley
Fits, son of Mr.. and Mrs. +. ID. Fits.
formerly residents Of Madison. at
North Yakima, Wash, from the Daily
Republic, of that city, under date Of
February 3:
One of the most attractive Of the
many home weddings of the winter
season was that which was solemn
lied at noon today, when Miss Cert
rude Clark became the bride Of Joe
Wesley Fits, of Zillah.
The wedding was characterized by
its extreme simplicity. The apart
ments of the brides parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Clark, of North Fourth
street, were lovely to see with their
dainty pink and green decorations.
Outlining the doorways, chandeliers
and mantle pieces and set off by pink
shaded globes were boughs Of Oregon
grape and h~uckleberry. In one cor
ner of the living o an especially
pretty bower of asparagus ferns was
arranged with a pedestal holding a
large vase of pink enchantress carna-
tions in the background. The aper-
ture was lighted by pink shaded can
dies set in wall brackets to either
side. The rooms were lighted
throughout with additional pink
shaded candles.
To the strains of the wedding
march, softly played by Mrs. Verne
Wight, a bride of last month, the
bride descended the stairway on the
arm of her father. The same simple
ity of the decorations were carried
out in her modish costume of white
pussy willow taffeta. Il was made
in a round full length and caught to
the white girdle, which, embroidered
in white, formed part of the bodice.
Dainty flutings of white tulle out
lined this girdle, the quaint flare
cuffed sleeves and outstanding EN-
broidered collar extending In the
back. To complete this dainty after
noon costume she wore a French vel
vet toque, the crown of which was
formed of white velvet leaves and
roses. She carried a shower bouquet
of Roman hyacinths, bride roses and
maidenhair ferns, from Wnlch Tell q
cascade Of satin streamers ending in
blossoms and ferns.
They were met at the altar by the
groom, his attendant, Frank Clark
and Rev. w. d. Robinson, of the
Congregational church.
After an informal reception, q
luncheon was served in the dining
room adjoining by the Misses Irene
Ross, Edna Eddings, of Portland
Genevieve Fits and Madeline Stat
ford. The lace covered serving table
which was centered with a flarine
bowl of pink carnations, was presided
over by Mrs. c. II. Libbey and Mrs
o. r. Nichols, of Selah, a sister OF tn
groom. The brides cake was unique
ly conferred with a bouquet of bride
roses and ferns.
Mrs. c. p. Sutorious assisted Mrs
Clark about the rooms. Mr.. and Mrs

STORMS DELAY WORK
NEW AUTOMATIC SERVICE WILL
BE MOST MODERN IN THE
UNITED STATES.

With the completion here about
April / by the Dakota Central Tele-
phone company of the new automatic
system, ii is said, it will be possible
to carry on a conversation between
Madison and San Francisco with the
same c%learness that is now expert
enced in talking over the telephone
wires within the city limits.
Work of installing the apparatus in
the telephone headquarters building
is being rushed to completion. and II
is said that it is much more modern
than the automatic appliances used
i'm such automatic services as have
been installed in Sioux City and
Omaha. One difference is that after
turning the house telephone dial to
the numbers wanted, it is not neces-
sary for the patron to push a button,
to get a response, as is the case in
the systems in most other city tele-
phones. When the numbers are i'm
dicated, the mechanism automatical-
Iy rings the telephone at the oppo-
site end of the line.
The dials that are to be installed
here are much smaller and more or
namental than are those of the old
automatic designs. The new dials
are not much larger than a Mexican
dollar, while those of the old auto
matte telephones are larger than the
face OF an average sized alarm clock.
Under the improved system, it is in
stantly made known at the central
office, by the flashing Of a tiny light
on the operators board, when a mum
Der has been called which is not i'm
the book. 1t is arranged so the wire
chief may at any time ascertain.

NEWEST IS DRIED SOUP
APPETIZING FRUITS AND NEGE-
TABLES DEMONSTRATED AT
MUNRO'S STORE.

As fresh to the sight and taste as
when they were picked from the trees
or bushes, an array of luscious fruit
was sampled today by scores of Mad
ison citizens in the III. j. Munro gro
Gerry store. There was a demonstra-
ton of both dried fruit and vege-
tables given by Mrs. L. o. Kennedy,
representative of the Everfresh Fruit
company, of ogden, Utah.
The rich quality of the edibles
needed no recommendation upon the
part of the demonstration. Mrs. Ken
nedy explained that absolutely no
coloring, drugs or other preservatives
were used in curing the fruit, and
that after being thoroughly cleansed
is simply put through a process in an
enclosed cabinet. To render the fruit
ready for table use, it is only neces-
sary to place them in pure, cold
water. The foods reach the consum-
er in the purest possible state. and in
the processing they lose less than
one-tenth of l per cent in food value.
The list comprises apples, peaches,
pears, prunes, loganberries, blackber-
ries, strawberries, potatoes, onions
and beets. Highly Favored comment
was made by visitors on the quality
of the Everfresh dried soup"
All of the fruits and vegetables are
grown in Oregon or Utah. The cosi
of the aried fruit is said to be only
about one-third that of canned fruit
and vegetables. Until this year, Mrs
Kennedy explained, the entire output
of the Everfresh plant has been pur
chased for railway dining car anc
steamship table use. 1t "a only las
year that the company arranged fol
enlarged facilities that would permit
| of them catering direct to the public

BIG STORES
ROBBED Of
RICH LOOT

Selecting only the very choicest
Christmas stocks, a daring thief
broke into show windows of the
Horgan-Parker department store
and Lewis Brothers, 935 Broad
way, stealing a total of $3.50
worth Of goods from the two
places.
In each robbery, the thief forced
open rear doors on the square
glass cases in the center of the
stores arcades. He evidently
took his time to the jobs, choosing
the choicest articles in each case.
His loot ranged from silk under
wear to chamois gloves, and from
French perfume to cerise petit
coats.
The robbery is believed to have
occurred about 3 a. M, when
Broadway is comparatively quiet.
The policeman on the beat did not
know of the robberies until they
were reported to him.
