a former member of the Hesperian staff,
fST
August 24. Mr. and Mrs. Robertson reside

onr congratulations.
Thursday, June 8th, Miss Elizabeth Hall
was married to Mr. Oscar Frederick Funke.
The impressive ceremony took place in the
Trinity Cathedral, Omaha, and many friends
from both Omaha and Lincoln were present.
Mr. Funke was formerly a student of the
University where he still has many friends.
He was a member of the Phi Delta Theta
Fraternity, and was one of the most pleasant,
engaging young men in the University. He
was an earnest student, and after he left
school equally distinguished himself in busi
ness life. "We congratulate him upon his
happiness.
Tuesday, September 12, Miss Minnie De
Pue was married to Mr. Geo. L. Meissner.
The wedding took place at the residence of
Mr. O. V. Webster, the bride's uncle, and
was one of the most happy occasions that
the eventful summer witnessed. The cere
mony was beautifull' solemn, and when Miss
Hammond began playing the wedding march,
some of the happy friends present felt that
little shade of melancholy which sometimes
clouds for a moment our greatest pleasure!?.
Perhaps they were thinking that it would
never be quite the same again, and that they
were losing something, though in a very
joyous manner.
Miss De Pue was one of the most popular
members of the most popular class that ever
graduated from the University. In her stud
ent work she was rapid and accurate, and in
social circles she was certainly one of the
leaders of her class. She was one of the
most enterprising members of the Palladian
Society and was an able editor on th staff
of the Lasso. No young lady ever left the
University leaving more friends behind than
Miss De Pue. She has that enviable art of
making warm and constant friends by a smile
or a word because there is worth and stauch
ness in it. After her graduation in '92,
Mies De Pue taught in David City where she
has many friends who rejoice in her present
happiness. There as here, she was charac
terized by that vivacite and esprit de coeur
which are needed and appreciated every
where. Mr. Meissner has been for some time a
teller in the American Exchange. Bonk.
He is universally liked and is one of the best
known young men in the city. He is al
ready regarded by the business world as one
of the talented young financiers of Lincoln.
After, the congratulations and good-byes
were over, Mr. and Mrs. Meissner left for a
trip to Chicago and a visit to the groom's
parents in Iowa. We wish them both all
success and all happiness.
