TRIPLE WEDDING

Double weddings are somewhat out of the ordinary, while triple weddings are so rare as to be almost unheard of. However, Wrangell is noted for the unusual and unexpect- ed.
 On the afternoon of the fourth of July Judge Thomas was called to the Court House where he found a party consisting of three couples who wished to get married. The Judge promptly compiled with their wishes, performing the three cere- monies in succession. The three couples were:
 John McCulloch and Miss Bessie Jackson.
 John Henry (Kid) Stokes and Miss Lillian Pearl Desmond.
 Walter Bersch and Miss Francis Ruth Desmond.
 All three brides are we'll known in Wrangell, and all three were school mates at Chemawa, Oregon. They are habitually in. a happy frame ot mind and are very popular with their associates.
 John McCulloch is a home boy V needs no introduction
 Messrs. Stokes and Bersch are res idents of Juneau. They have been pals for years. It was therefore quite appropriate that they should have married sisters. They arrived here from the North last Friday, This was not their first acquaInr- ance with the Desmond girls, as they met them at Salem, Oregon several years ago and have kept track of them ever since
 Messrs. Stokes and Bersch will leave with their wives on the Queen for Jcneau where they will make their home for the present. Later they expect to go to Bellingham to reside.

When the war ended the United States
did not return the ship to Germany,

board sent it up to Boston for a sort

1t ran all right-but Chairman Las

ought to have another tryout. On the
trip to Boston there had been practic-
ally none but the crew. Lasker, hav-

heaps of taxpayers money, invited
about 600 persons to be ''guests" of
the shipping board and enjoy a run
down to Cuba. The joy ride, it is es-
timated, will cost about S1,000,000.
