Stille Holds Local
Title "Potato King

Chas. Stille, whose farm is just
across the river from Wolf Point,
earned the title of "Potato King

is entitled to retain it on the

Murphy-Carr
Circle folks were pleasantly sur
prised last Saturday when news
reached here of the marriage OF
Miss Helen Carr, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. R. H. Carr of this place,
to James A. Murphy, well known
rancher west of here. The happy
event took place at Billings on
Thursday of last week, and the
newly-weds are at present honey
incoming" on a trip through Yell
owstone Park.
They are expected back in a few
days when their many friends
promise them a warm reception
and hearty congratulations
They will make their home we
understand on the ranch west of
here.
The wedding of the couple furn-
ished the dailies of the state in
teresting reading owing to the fact
that Jas. and Helen had obtained
their marriage license at Miles
City and used it in being married
at Billings, which fact was over
looked by the Reverend at Bill
ings. This is the fourth time a
mistake has happened to
folks getting married in eastern
Montana in the past two months,
and has resulted in the couples
to obtain another set of
icenses.-Circle Banner.
