latter sum would be one four-thou-

EVENING
ON WEBSTER PRAIRIE

A large crowd of neighbOrs and
friends surprised Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Risley on May II, that being
their fifteenth wedding anniversary.
Upon entering they told Mr.. and Mrs.
Risley, "Recollectfng the pleasant
years made agreeable through your
acquaintance, it becomes our pleas
ant duty in behalf Of your friends
assembled here tonight to- remind
you that we are not forgetful Of the
fact that you were welded fifteen
years ago." After all were seated,
Henry Risley, brother of the groom,
took his place at the piano and start
ed to play the wedding march, when
to the surprise Of the crowd the fold
ing doors between the spacious din
ing room and parlor were thrown
open and, headed by the minister,
the bride and groom Of fifteen years
entered, standing under the beautl-
full drapery of flags, with Mrs. Ray
Judson as bridesmaid and A1beart
Bear as best man. The bride car
ried a beautiful bouquet of orange
blossoms presented by her friends.
After congratulations music was
furnished by the Risley orchestra,
after which a fine supper was served.
Charles .Risley brought his bride,
a. finely educated musician, from the
city fifteen years ago to live in our
midst. Mr.. Risleyy was then con-
lducting a creamery station. After
one year they moved onto their farm
at Webster Prairie, where they are
living happily. In the varied walks
of neighborly and social intercourse
| both young and old have learned to
| love and respect Mr.. and Mrs. Ris-
ley. They have. always contributed
abundantly toward making life pleas
ant for all, rich and poor old and
| young. We do not forget that when
laughter was the merriest their hap
tpy presence added pleasure to- the
same, and when sorrow visited a
home, their words Of consolation and
and sympathy made the sorrow light:
er. s as.1tsss -.sad
After wishing them much joy AMI
happiness all departed for their homes
feeling they asfad spent one OF the
most pleasant evenings Of their life.
The bridal couple enjoyed the cha
rivari. A GUEST.

THE COTTON MARKET
Trade Is Light and Evening Of Com
mitments Takes Place.

NEW YORK. Feb. 24.-The cotton
trade was of light proportions during
the session and further evening OF
commitments took place. A steady
undertone was in evidence with no
aggressiveness on either side how
ever.
Spot markets at the South remain
firm. II is admitted that the spin
ners are not disposed to pay asking
prices. but this does not seem to inn
pair the confidence of holders as yet.
Some authorities contend that more
actual cotton will be offered for sale
as soon as planting operations are
under way. Naturally much will de-
pend upon weather conditions during
the spring and political reports
South Texas is still in need OF rain.
On the other hand, conditions in the
East are better for crop preparation.
Speculation is really in allegiance
awaiting the political developments.
