Daniels and Miss Eudo- ta Canterburry. Mrs Rev. A. M. Thompson. has ! heen quite ill tor the past weck. A large concourse of the elite of | Butler and vicinity assembled, last | Monday evening at the residence of | Hon. P. C. Fulkerson to witness the | marriage ceremonies of Mr. Ralph | W. Daniels, one of Butler’s most promising young buisness men, and jthe beautiful and accomplished young lady Miss Eudora Canterbury. On the reception of a neatly printed invitation a representative of the | Times started for the residence of | Mr. P. C. Fulkerson’s, equipped with paper and pencil to record the | details ot that most nappy occasion. We arrived at our place of destina- tion a little after five o’clock, was kindly received by the generous host and ushered into the parlor, which was beautifully decorated with ever- greens and flowers suitable to the occasion. After being comfortably seated our attention was soon called to a large tablecompletely covered with presents for the bride and groom from their friends and relatives in Butlerand elsewhere, a detail of which we give below. At half past fiveo’clock Miss Kate Glessnez was called to preside at the piano and when the first notes ot ‘Mendetsohnn’s grand weeding march were heard and the bride and groom entered followed by two of earth’s little Eve’s bearing flowers. As the group formed under an arch of ever- greens, Elder Reid stepped for- ward and with a tew well chosen remarks launched forth on lfe’s broad ocean a barque which needs two at the helm. - After the mfany friends had con- gratulated the happy couple as man and wife the host invited the bride and groom and guests into the din- ing room to partake of the delicious weding supper which was prepaired by Sovrer’s Bro’s, under the direc- tion ot the hostess Mrs. P. C. Ful- kerson. After which the guests re- turned to the parlor and were highly entertamed with vocal and _ instru- mental music by Mrs. Wm. E. Wal- ton, Miss Nannie Pyle and others. Wishing the bride and groom a hap- py new vear anda safe weding tour, the friends at nine o’clock retired to their respective homes. The bride was elegantly attired in an imperted suit of old gold plaid and myrtle green satin mural, with point applieque lace, making her seem the sweet ideal of an artist’s dream. The little flower girls, Misses Ruby Irwit and May Park- inson, like Hati’s Anderson’s fairies surely wandered threugh seme gar- den where the roses andlillies vied in robing them. Mrs. P. C. Fulkerson was beauti- fully dressed in black silk and cardi- nal plush, Mrs. J, T. Wallis in black silk, Mrs. B. B, Canterbury in black watered silk and cashmere, Mrs Ab- ernathy in old gold satin, Mrs Wal- ton in garnet plush And velvet, Mrs Judge Parkinson in black silk and cream lace, Hattie Fulton in_ black silk, Ida Crume in brown silk, Hat- \tie McKibben in pale blue satin jersey and black silk, Myrtle Mc- cardi- Samuel Levv & Co., have bought ! the Patterson building on the east side. cy ee Coe There will be a convention of Opera Hour proprietors in Butler before many wecks.

Church gave a Christmas tree, and that Father Renanick acted as Santa Claus, we were guilty of an error unintentional, however, of course. The Christmas tree was erected Sunday evening, it is true, and the presents were distributed theretrom, but the church did not deem it consistent with their religion to have Sante Claus. We regret that our mis-statement of the affairshould agrieve our venerable and reepected friend Father Rennick. We took our cue from information which we thought satisfactory, and was by no means governed by a malicious in- tent. Honest and Liberal. When the Hops in each bottle of Hop Bitters (at the present price, $1-25 per Ib.) cost more than a bottle is sold for, besides the other costly medicines, and the quality and price are kept the same, we think it is honest and liberal in the proprictors, and no one should complain: or buy er use worthless stuff, or cheating bogus imitations because the price is less. §2t Mr C.F.
