Glen Rawls. the gial clerk at C. E.

The ceremony was celebrated with Temple rites. The Temple Is an organization along accult and humanitarian lines, dealing with mystical, as well as practical side of religion, ethics and social science. The local branch at Polo Alto is call ed the Temple Square. On Sunday, August 7th, the wedding of Mr. Mun ger and Miss Hauswirth occurred, and was a complete surprise to ev eryone but the, wedding party and the groom's mother. At the conclu sion of the morning service, there stepped forward Arthur Lee Munger and Miss Frida Matilda Hauswirth to be married, according to the ritual and rites of the Temple. The cere- mony was performed by the official heads, Dr. W. H. Dower and Mrs. F. L. A. La Due, the two chief officials of the Temple, garbed in snow white robes. The ritual is most impres sive and is quite unlike that of any other church, in that it minimizes New ('bail's Are In. R. M.

The seats are arranged with hat racks and foot rests convenien ces that will be appreciated by the patrons of the house. The raised stage will be fitted up in the most modern fashion with foot lights and other accessories. , Peaches Weie Fine. The peaches shipped to us by Mr. John Murray from Alva, Okla., were received yesterday and we immedi ately opened the basket and sampled them. They are the finest peaches we ever saw, there not being a sin gle blemish on them, and still they laid in the Pacific Express office here for two or three days before we knew they had arrived. They had the rarest of flavor and indeed they were the finest we have ever tasted. We certainly appreciated your kind rememberance Mr. Murray, and we certainly did ample justice to them.

E.NO PRESCRIPTION DRUGGISTS the religious and accentuates the philosophic and social side of mar riage. The ancient heirlooms smack ing of the inferiority and submis sion on the part of the bride are omitted. The Temple has the same sanction to solemnize marriages as that of other church under the law of California. The bride and groom were la street attire and unattended. Each placed a ring on the fourth finger of the other in token of marriage, re peating the nuptial vows in unison, after which the officials speaking In unison pronounced them man and wife. The consecration hymn was sung by the audience with deep solemnity and feeling. The high contracting parties stood upon a silk Persian rug which has performed the same part In weddings of the Munger family for many years. The groom's father had been called east on business and so was not present. This is the second Temple marriage, the first being performed on last Thanksgiving. Both Mr. and Mrs. Munger are prominent graduates of the Stanford university. Mr. Mun ger Is the son of former deputy coun- . ty treasurer, A. L. Munger of this county, and Is well known to the Plattsmouth young people where the family resided for some time. Otr for South Dakota. E. Austin and C. Albln, accom panied by M.

His number being 8014, while Mr. Austin drew 11,192 or thereabouts. These gentlemen are going to look at the land before the date of drawing. Af ter the drawing they will have ten days to decide whether they will ac cept the allotment. Corn Crop About Prague Good. Mr. G. M. Fleming, a farmer re siding near Prague, In Saunders county, Neb., stopped a few hours In Plattsmouth this morning while en route to Murray to visit relatives. Mr. Fleming thinks the corn on hia farm will make twothirds of a crop this season. The prospect for a crop now is more favorable than last year. Small grain was a splendid crop, while hay will be very short. Farm ers who had alfalfa are in luck, as they have cut two or more crops ot the hay and will get one or two more. Use "Forest Rose" Flour if you want the best results in making good bread. Try a sack and you will buy no other. For sale by all leading dealers. W. A. Schutz left for Plalnview this afternoon wHere he will visit with friends for a short time. L" V ... ; ' ' x & CO.,
