theater has decided to close that
moving picture playhouse, and to
night will be the last night that
it will be open until spring. He
will lease the house whenever de
sired to anyone wanting to give
entertainments, however, during
the winter'iiionths. In the spring
Mr. Shales expects to put in a new
front and remodel the lobby, as
well as put in a number of other
improvements that will make this
a first-class and up-to-date
picture house and one that will
be the equal of any in a town of
this size. Tonight there will be a
wrestling match put on between
"Terrible Dutch" and "Kid"
Mauer, as well as four reels of
pictures.

Married at Rector's Home.
Yesterday at the residence of
Rev. Allan G. Wilson of St. Luke's
church occurred the marriage of
Vernon T. Smith and Miss Ethel
G. Conrey of Omaha. The young
people procured the license here a
few days ago and came down yes
terday and had the marriage per
formed. They returned at once
to their home in Omaha.
DEALERS FAVORABLY IMPRES
SED WITH CHOPIE ENGINE
The Chopie gasoline engine,
which was exhibited at the Imple
ment Dealers' show in Omaha last
week, drew much favorable atten
tion and was the main attraction
in its class and drew many favor
able comments from those visit
ing the show, and several dealers
put in applications for agencies
to sell this unrivaled engine. Quite
a bunch of stock has been dis
posed of in Omaha and the com
pany will open a branch olllce in
that city in charge of L. E.
Rogers, who will' look- after the
interests of the company in that
city and push the engine and its
sale. The interest that was
manifested at the show is only
another demonstration of the
growing interest of the public in
the greatest gasoline-saving en
gine on themarket, and as they
become acquainted with the merits
of it the sales will be trebled. The
'company' is every day receiving
inquiries in regard to the factory
in this city and much stock is be
ing taken in all localities where
the engine and its splendid quali
ties have been shown, and it is
only a question of time until the
factory in this city will grow to
; be one of the biggest in the state,
and prove of great value to the up
building of the city.

Miss Florence A. Dovey and Mr.
Carl West Happily Wedded at
Home of Bride's Parents.
A very simple, quiet, yet im
pressive home wedding occurred
Saturday evening at G o'clock at
the home of the bride's parents,
Mr. and Mrs. II. N. Dovey, when
their daughter, Miss Florence
Anna became the bride of Mr. Wil
liam Carl West of Wyoming, Ne
braska. The wedding march was
played by Miss Margie Walker of
Murray, as the wedding party
entered the parlors where the
ceremony was performed by the
Itev. Allan G. Wilson of St. Luke's
church.
The bride was most beautifully
attired in white brocaded chara
moise, carrying white bride's
roses, while the bridesmaid, Miss
lone Dovey, was charming in a
costume of pale blue charamoise,
and carried pink roses. The
groom and the best man, E. G.
Dovey, wore the customary, suits
of black.
The Dovey home had been most
lavishly decorated for the oc
casion, red and white carnations
forming the color scheme, and it
made a most handsome setting for
the happy event. Following the
wedding ceremony a most de
licious luncheon was served, and
the newly-weds were showered
with congratulations by the rela
tives and friends. Mr. and Mrs.
West departed at 9:45 for the east,
where they will spend their honey
moon visiting various points on
the Atlantic coast. The out-of-town
relatives and friends present
at the ceremony were: Mr. and
Mrs. D. 0. West of Wyoming,
father and mother of the groom;
0. C. West and daughter, Lillian,
of Wyoming; Hugh Robb and wife
of Wyoming, Mr. and Mrs. T. R.
Salmon of fialesburg, Illinois;
Mrs. Oscar Heath and (laughter of
Lincoln, Miss Mary Wilson of Ne
braska City, Miss Lueetla Patter
son of Omaha, Miss Margie Walk
er of Murray, and Mr. Harry Cum
mings of Scawrd.
Miss Dovey was born and reared
to womanhood in this city, where
she has been very popualr in
social circles. She was a graduate
of the High school, graduating in
the class of 1904, and has always
possessed a host of warm friends,
who will extend to the newly wed
ded couple the best wishes for a
long and happy married life. The
groom is a very prosperous and
genial young man, residing at
Wyoming, where he is engaged in
the grain business, and possesses
the highest respect and esteem of
all who know him, as lie is a man
or very liign character and in
tegrity. The young people will
make their home at Wyoming in
the future.
THE GERMAN HOME MASKED
BALL LARGELY ATTENDED
The mask ball given Saturday
evening at the German home was
largely attended by a very large
crowd, who enjoyed themselves to
the limit, and it was with great
regret that they wended their way
homeward, after an evening of fun
and merriment. There were a
largo number of very handsome
costumes on the lloor and the
judges had much dilllculty in de
ciding who was entitled to the
priz.es, but finally decided that
Clarence Coiner won the first
gentleman's prize, while John
Hudraha and John Saltier, jr.,
carried off second and third prizes
respectfully. In tho ladies' class
Miss Emma Albert received first
prize, Miss Amanda Saltier second
and Mrs. Pcto Herold third. Tho
committee in charge of the dance
spared no pains to make tho affair
a splendid success, and their ef
forts were very successful, as the
occasion was one long to bo re
membered as one of much pleas
ure to all attending.
Mrs. A. R. Tabor, of Cridcr, Mo.,
had been troubled with sick head
ache for about five years, when
she began taking Chamberlain's

a disordered stomach, for which
these tablets are especially in

MILLIONS FOR THE
Thirty-nine Counties In Nebraska
Expend Ten Millions In
Six Years.
The state board of agriculture,
through its publicity department,
is making an investigation of the
amount of money expended for
road improvement in Nebraska.
K. J. Hobinson, examiner of coun
ty treasurers for the state audit
or's office, has furnished a partial
complication of these funds,
which shows largo expenditures.
Mr. Robinson's report covers
thirty-nine -counties east of, the
first guide meridian,-which is a
line drawn from the western
boundary of Nuckolls county. The
territory examined does not in
clude Saunders or Douglas coun
ties nor the city of Lincoln, nor
the towns and villages within the
counties examined. The total ex
penditures for roads and bridges
in these thirty-nine counties from
1906 to 1910 is 90,0511,558.87.
During the same period the
county treasurers of these coun
ties have paid to the cities, towns
and villages within these counties
taxes which have been collected
through the offices of the counlv
treasurers to the amount of $1.
290,081.79. Out of this amount
the road and bridge maintenance
of the civil sub-divisions rep
resented by the municipal govern
ment has boen supported.
' The records in the auditor's
office do not show what portion of
the latter amount has been ex
pended directly for road purposes.
The relatively large amount of
money expended for road pur
poses as revealed by these figures
supports the contention of those
who say that Nebraska now spends
enough money to insure good
roads under proper administra
tion. This statistical investigation
is of peculiar interest in view of
the organized effort to secure a
stale highway commission at this
session of the legislature, and the
figures will doubtless be used
freely by both the friends and op
ponents of that measure.
LITTLE DOT INJURED
BY HORSES IN A LOT
Saturday afternoon Fred, the
little son of Andrew Habh, of this
city, met with a very serious ac
cident at his home. The little boy
had gotten into the lot where there
were a number of horses and
colts, and in some manner they
proceeded to lake after him. His
cries attracted the attention of his
folks, wlio hastened to the lot
and found him suffering with a
scalp wound of several inches in
length and one eye closed as the
results of tho kicks he had re
ceived from the horses. A physi
cian was summoned at once and
tho wound dressed and the little
fellow made as comfortable as
possible, although suffering a
great deal from the painful injury.
It is very fortunate that tho lad
was not killed outright by the
horses.
