METHODIST LADIES EN-
JOY PLEASANT AFTERNOON
The ladies of the M. E. church
held a delightful social meeting at
the pleasant home of Mrs. J. M.
Hall, in the west part of the" city,
yesterday afternoon. An excellent
program, consisting of some very
charming vocal and instrumental
solos, interspersed with spelndid
readings, entertained the large
number of ladies in attendance a
portion of the afternoon and was
most thoroughly enjoyed. The
prosrani consisted of iustru
mei.lal selection l.y Mi.-f cs Vioiot
Freese and Marguerite Porter,
readinus were furnished by Miss
Ellen Windham. Mrs. A. J. JJje
son and Mrs. I.. A. Moore, whiU
Miss Ferris York and Mrs. C. S.
Johnson contributed vocal solos.
A few moments were devoted to
social conversation and other di
versions nmhlhen delicious re
freshments were served. Muring
the afternoon an offering was
taken, from which a neat sum
was realized. There were about
sixty ladies present.
Last evening at 8 o'clock, in the
irst Methodist church, occurred
the marriage of Miss Elba Nell
'.rabill to Mr. Wiley (ilen Brooks
of Caldwell, Idaho. The sacred
"eremony came just at the close
of an almost, perfect summer day.
The sun, lately sunken into a sea
of golden splendor, had left the
trees and hill-tons tinted with a
ovely twilight glow. The half-
orbed moon arose and cast a
silver radiance which fell as a
mantle of peace and benediction
upon the scene.
U the appointed hour the cere
mony was introduced by the sing
ing of Nevin's "Captive Memories"
by twenty-six members of the
Euterpean Glee club, assisted by
Mrs. William Itaird. reader, and
Mr. I). C. York, baritone soloist.

piano, having taken I heir places
in the choir loft. "Captive Me
mories is an exquisite song
cycle, portraying in measures 'of
delicate harmony and sweetest
verse the emotions of courtship,
entreaty, love and marriage. It
was most artistically rendered
and served as a very lit I inn' pre
lude to the marriage ceremony.
Immediately at, its close the
strains of Lohengrin announced
the entrance of the bridal parly,
who advanced from the rear of the
auditorium down Ihe center aisle,
led by Messrs. R. A. and Dell
Brooks, brothers of the groom.
Following were four little girls,
attendants of Ihe bride Clara
Mae Morgan, who sang very
sweetly the favorite lines "Faith
ful and True;" LaVahn LenhotT
and Lorine Northcut of Omaha
and Muriel Streight. Little Helen
Wescott came next, bearing the
ring, and following her the bride,
handsomely dressed in white voile
trimmed in insertion. She carried
a beautiful bouquet of white rose
buds. She was joined at the altar
by the groom, attended by Rev.
Will Brooks, his brother.
Rev. Arthur Brooks, pastor of
the First Methodist church at
Hastings, also a brother of the
groom, pronounced the sacred
ceremony which joined these two
in the holy bonds of matrimony.
His tones were clear and distinct
and most impressively employed
in this, the holiest olllce of his
ministry. A simple ring service
sealed the solemn vows uttered
by. the contractility parties, and
the Lord's Prayer, by all, con
cluded the ceremony. The happy
couple left the alter in step with
Menhelsohn's wedding inarch.
The church .was tilled with
guests and was most artistically
decorated in 'golden rod and as-

A most enjoyable time was had
at the Presbyterian Sunday school
picnic yesterday, there being' a
turnout of about DID boys and
pirls and older ones as well.
(James were indulged in by the
children, while the others visited
and had a social time. Plenty of
lunch was provided, with lemon
ade ami cake, fried chicken, devil
ed eggs, pickles, hot coffee, sand
wiches and the like. One of the
pleasant features of the occasion
was the automobile ride given the
picnickers both going and return
ing. The picnic was held in Mr.
Tom Wiles' pasture, an ideal
place, with plenty of shade and
blue grass, so that all could be
comfortable. The school is. in
debted to Clayt Ilosencrans,
John Bauer, jr., and John Wehr

the children to and from the
grounds in their automobiles.
Charley Warner very kindly
brought a load of the picnickers in
in the evening. Mr. Warner was

morning.

handiwork of friends of the bride,
who delighted in whatever service
they might render to one they
loved so dearly, but whose de
parture from the city causes them
deep regret. Especially will Miss

tivities in the church of which she
has been a faithful member. Hav

day school work and also a char

club, to which organization her
assistance and fidelity have meant
much. Her circle of friends has
been ever widening. She has'en
deared herself to many in the
community through her works in
music, art and photography.
The groom is well known to
many Plallsmoulh people, as he
served two years, 1907-08, as
principal of the High school. He
is at present, superintendent, of
schools in Caldwell, Idaho, where
he returns for the third year
having spent Ihe past six weeks
in special work at Columbia uni
versity. His preparation, ability
and experience are fast winninir
for him recognition in his pro
fession, and his rapid advance
ment, has been a well earned re
ward of merit.
Mr. ami Mrs. Hrooks departed
some, time (?) last evening for
their future home at Caldwell.
However, they were not, at the
time of their departure, surround
ed by a host of friends to shower
rice ami good wishes upon them,
as they had skillfully planned and
successfully executed a secret
escape, the details of which wore
unknown to even the nearest
friends. They are followed in
spirit, however, by their many de
voted friends, who wish them all
the good things of life which they
wish for themselves.
One unusual and delightful
feature of the ceremony was that
the ushers and ofllclntlng pastor
were brothers of the groom.

Ihe occasion were: Mrs. L. II.

on land was most interesting.

daughter will return to their home
at Sheridan. Wyoming.
