SURPRISE
WEDDING
Miss Nettie Reid Wyatt and Mr.. W.

Monday Morning.

Miss Nettie Reid Wyatt, of this
city, and Mr.. w. o. Caraway, of
Omaha, Neb., we're married at the
home of the brides parents on West
Clay street Monday morning at 6 80
o'clock, Rev. E. L. Southgate, Of the
Methodist church, officiating, only
the relatives and a few intimate
friends being present. Immediately
after the ceremony the happy
couple left for Louisville, where they
will spend a few days before leaving
for Montgomery, Clayton and other
Alabama cities for protracted
bridal tour.
The wedding is the happy culmi-
nation of a courtship that began a
few summers ago when MISS Wyatt
visited relatives in Clayton, where
Mr.. Caraway was then located.
Miss Wyatt is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. John S. Wyatt and is one
Of the city's most attractive daugh-
ters, possessing a charming manner
and winning personality, she has
always been exceedingly popular
with a large circle of admiring
friends. Mr.. Caraway is member
of an old Southern family and
while known to but few of our peo-
pie has by his gentlemanly demeanor
impressed them with his worth as q
man. He has been connected with
the Pullman Company for several
years and only recently was trans
ferred to Omaha, Neb., where he
holds a very responsible position.
The marriage came as "a complete
surprise as the happy couple had
kept well their secret.
Having known the bride since
she was a tiny little girl the writer
congratulates Mr.. Caraway on win
ming such a charming woman for
his life's companion and wishes
them prosperity, happiness and
all the blessings they both deserve

peril to life. being most frequent in
dwellings and often breaking out at
night. A characteristic example is
that in which an electric pressing iron
is left upon the ironing board with
the current turned on, and then for
gotten. In such case the fire may
not occur until some hours later. The
burning OF the residence OF John Wan
amaker, several years ago, was due to
an electric pressing iron.
That this form OF hazard IL already
assuming large proportions appears
from the statistics. For example, the
Actuarial bureau Of the national board
OF fire underwriters in one day noted
approximately one hundred reports Of
fires from this cause, out OF a total OF
two thousand losses in the days re-
ports. and IL estimates that small cleo
trio devices are causing fires at the
rate OF $4,000 or more in the course OF
a year.
It Is safe to say that most OF these
fires are entirely preventable, and can
be charged to nothing but carelessness
on the part of the user. Various
safety" devices have been added by
certain of the manufacturers Of these
articles, and among them are some
that are fairly effective, but there is
one absolute precaution which should
be borne in mind at all times by every
user. namely, that of shutting Off the

tinuously supervising the use.
