Notice.
Owing to the fact that we have scarlet
fever in our city, I think it necessary that
the strictest precautions be taken. The
law imposes a heavy penalty for failure on
the part of physician (Dr. H. H, Bell wood),
or head of family for failure to report at
once to health officer, any case coming
within their knowledge, and the purpose
of this notice is to warn all. concerned that
the law will be rigidly enforced.
J. KriublbAugh, Mayor.
A Quiet Wedding.
A quiet wedding took place at tho home
of Mr. and Mrs. T. S, Fielding Wednes
day evening when their daughter Feme
was married to Mr. Frank McFarland, the
ceremony being performed by Rev. G. C.
JefJers. Just relatives and a few intimate
friends were guests at the wedding. A
supper was served following the ceremony
and a pleasant hour spent by all present.
Mr. and Mrs. McFarland are among our
best known an most highly respected
young people. Both are earnest and effi
cient workers in the Baptist church and
members of its choir and young people's
society and their unity of interests gives
their many friends reason to expect for
them the happiness they so heartily wish
for them. They went to housekeeping at
once In rooms in the same house occupied
by the bride's parents.
The Schubert Symphony club and la
dies' quartet gave an entertainment at the
opera house Wednesday evening under
auspices of St. Matthew's Episcopal church.
They had a good house and entertained
thefr auditors right royally for an hour
and a half or two hours. Every num
ber was heartily encored and they gracious
ly responded to most of them. The in
strumental numbers by the quartet and
solos by its members were heartily ap
plauded and the vocal selections and solos
were even better received. Master Tom
Purcell's violin solos bespoke the true ar
tist and his wonderful talent is splendidly
developed for a lad of fifteen years, He
surely has a bright future before him in
his chosen field. Evangeline Parker's
monologues furnished much merriment.
Her interpretation of the characters she
assumed were excellent. Mrs. Parker
will be remembered by many ra the county
as Miss Evangeline VanNest, who resided
with her father near Box Butte. She was
married to J. V. Parker about fourteen
years ago at Nonpareil where Mr. Parker
published a newspaper. Mrs. Parker
spent some time studying in a Chicago
conservatory and now, resides in Madison,
wis. During her stay here she was en
tertained by Mesdames J. E. Joder, F. E.
Holsten, R. T. Watson, B. F. Gilman,
Miss Pease and other friends.

If you haven't already most everybody else has, i. e.:
Subscribe for The Herald. Cut out the Rev. Dr. Horn's
letters each week and paste them in a scrap book. It will
make a splendid book to preserve for yonr children to
read. The first letter from abroad will appear early
in December.
It has already been demonstrated that Dr. Horn is a
most interesting writer in fact, it is doubtful if thcrp
could be found in the State any one who is better qualified
or could write up such a trip more entertainingly than he.
This is the opportunity of n lifetime. Don't delay.
