of the Jtedmond company to Miss
Winifred Blair of Broken Bow, niece
of his excellency, the governor of Ne
braska, by the Rev. Percy Silver. The
ceremony was solemnized at the end

solemn. The service does not need ac
cessories of stained gsiss windows. A
surplice choir and an altar to make
even such frivolous souls as the gal
ery boys serious. Mr. Stockdale, a

bride away. Before the ceremony he
announced that the theatre was the
home of actors and audiences their
friends, and that was the reason why
they wanted a home wedding. His
announcement increased the friendli
ness of the audience. After the cere

the congratulations of the audience in
applause and the curtain went down
with the company greeting the newly
wedded couple.
