Miss Susan Ford, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. William Ford of Wheeler
avenue, and Mr.. Martin Buck, also
of North Mankato, were united in
marriage last evening at eight o'clock
at the German Lutheran parsonage.
They were attended by Miss Rosina

bride wore pretty dress of brown
satin and a bouquet of pink roses,
and her maid wore a dress of gray
color, and also carried pink roses. A
reception was held at the home of
the brides parents, the rooms being
tastefully decorated with a profusion
of roses, carnations and foliage. An
elegant wedding supper was served,
about twenty one guests being pres
ent for the evening celebration. Mr.
and Mrs. Buck departed on a short
wedding trip, and upon their return
will make their home on Wheeler
arenue. They are popular young peo-
pie and have host of friends who
join in best wishes. Mr.. Buck is en-
ployed as a barber at the Saulpaugh
shop.

public health course
The work of the nurse in the pub
lie schools has been very well re-
ceived by the teachers and parents.
The success of the work is due to
their splendid cooperation.
The school board showed their ap-
probation of the work by presenting
the visiting nurse committee with a
generous check, and by appointing a
nurse to give full time to the work in
the schools this year
The physicians and dentists have
given some time, free of charge, to

ture that should interest the people
will be the opportunity of getting
food stuff at less than market price.
Much has already been donated and
the variety of things are already too
numerous to mention. One big white
rooster has already made his appear
ance among the things that will be
sold to the highest bidder. The fan
cy work and home made candy will
attract the attention of many.
The hall is being decorated for the
occasion and the display will rep
resent young fair.
While it is not necessary, it is new
er- the-less requested that those who
attend dress in rube costume or work.
ing clothes, or in other words, the ap-
pearance should indicate hard times
or the styles of fifty years ago.
Probably the most interesting fea-
ture of the evening will be the old
fashioned schoolmaster, who will con-
duct a free for-all spelling bee. A
first class prize will be awarded the
one who is spelled down first, and a
boob prize, as it is termed, will be a
cracker jack. OF course there will be
a better one for the one who is on
the floor when all the others are
spelled down. The proceeds will be
devoted to the local work Of the Sal
vation army.

Discussed Special Orders.
Preceding the installation of Of
ficers which occupied the closing
hour of the session two special or
ders were discussed, one dealing
with the financial budget, and the
other with the question of cutting
down the mileage of representatives
to the actual carfare. The financial
budget was discussed in detail, and
an appropriation of SS,170 was made
for the ensuing year, which will
cover the contingent expenses of
the grand lodge and the salaries of
grand officers. The per capita tax
was set at $1.0O the same as last
year. The lodge took action cutting
down the mileage to actual railroad
fare for representatives, as was
suggested yesterday. The grand
lodge sessions closed about 1890 and
the visiting representatives returned
to their homes on the afternoon
trains. The convention of Pythian
Sisters also closed this noon.
