WEDDING.
Oiiendahi.-Stepanoski —A pretty
wedding look plane at the home of
Sir. ami Mrs. C. J. Odendshl, in tula
city, last Sunday, N>>v 30, 1902, at
high noon, when their sou, Kred K.
and Miss KHa L Stepanoske, bolb
of this city, were united in marriage.
More tliuu a hundred invited
guests w :re present on the oecasioD
and witnessed the ceremony, which
was performed in a very impressive
maun r by tin Hev. John Madely,
pastor of the M E c.lurch of Loup
City.
At about II o’clock the guests be
gun to arrive and when the hour
came to perform the ceremony the
house wus full to overflowing. The
wedding march was played by Miss
Ernestine Odendahl, sister of the
groon, wueu the bride and groom,
accompanied by the bridesmaid and
hridsinan. Miss Sadie Pedler and
Mr. Thomas Lay, and also Neva
Hotchkins and Willie Odendabl,
took their position under the pretty
arch of lace and smilax vines. The
ceremony was both beautiful and im
pressive, and as the clock was about
to chime the hour of twelve the mar
riage vow had beeu taken and they
were pronounced man and wife.
Following the ceremony came tbe
congratulations Then came tbe
social part of the program anti the
further arrangements for the feast
uf good things which had been pre
pared for the guests. It would be
Idillieult to describe in detail, the
surnpteous diuoer that was served to
those present. We will simply say
that to Mrs. Odendabl is due, the
honor of getting up one of the most
palatable dinners ever served on a
similar occasion in the city. And
tin re was apparently no end to the
supply of good things that were
prepared for all present. The
groom, or Fred as he is known by
ail, is a young man of more than
•rdinary push and energy. Twenty
two tears ago lie was born in this
eitv and bus spent his every da\ life
among us. He is industrious, en
j ergetio and a jolly good fellow,
H<- was married on his twenty seer nd
birthday anniversary.
The bride is an accomplished lady
and has a host of admiring friends
who join in congratulating her
mi tier excellent choice for a life
partner and in wishing them a happy
and prosperous voyage over the sea
of time. They will go to house keep
ing at once.

DIED.
After a lung and continued suf
fering from consumption, Miss Lulu
Bauer passed away. Her death
had been daily expected for the past
tew weeks. She has been in poor
health for several years past but her
last illness was of ah »ut five months
duration and about two months ago
the attending physician told her that
•she could not live. Even then the
bright sunshine did not go out of
her life and at limes wheD her suffer
ing was not so intense she was cheer
ful aad hopeful that she would get
well again.
Lulu Ifauer was born at If attle
Greek Madison, County Nebr., on
June 12, J87:i, and died Thanks
giving day, Nov. 27. 1902, at the
age of 29 years 4 months and ]o
day s.
She moved to Loup City when 16
years of age and her every day life
was a ray of sunshine to all her as
sociates. She was an accomplished
Indy and followed school teaching
and music teaching as an occupation.
She taught four terms in the pri
mary department of our Loup City
schools and was hired for the fifth
term when her health broke compiet
i\ down and she wa9 compelled to
give up the position. That her
scholars dearly loved her was man.
ifisted at the funeral service, which
took place at the M, E. Church last
Sunday. A large procession of the
school children gathered at the school
house and marched to the church
where they placed flowers on the
casket, aud with tear stained eyes,
listened to the kindly words of the
minister.
The church was packed and there
was still many who could not get in.
The eeimon was preached by Ilev.
\V. E. Mathews, of Merna, Nebraska,
assisted by Rve. Mttdely of this city,
A great profusion of lovely flowers
was placed on 'be cai-ke', and kind
hands with tenderly affection, con
tribuied all possible to the honor of
the departed. Her remains were
laid to rest in the Evergreen cemet
ery. She leaves an aged mother, a
sister, M rs J. T. Halo and a brother
Mr A Hansel all of this city, to
mourn her loss. Yes, we can truly
say that all who knew Miss. Lulu,
and of her influence for good, a
mark that will always stand as bright
as the very sunshine itself, will mourn
with those who mourn for her.
Mrs. Julia Bauer, Mr. and Mrs.
J. T. Hale, Mr. and Mrs. A. Hansel
and other immediate relatives have
requested 11s to say to the many kind
frends that they are very greatful to
them all, for their assistance and
comfort during the long mouths of
sickness and death of their beloved
Lulu.

Old Age renidoiiH in I ranee.
The proposed law for old age pen
sions meets with much position In
France, on the ground that the age at
• which the pension falls due, 65, is far
beyond the average life of the French
workman. Many labor organizations
have protested and all on the same
ground, that their members have no
mind to lay by from their wages money
by which they personally are little
likely to profit.
