Father Gamache. ‘The bridegroom lived here’ for a long George Cox, gave her irito the keep- ing of the bridegroom, She carried a beautiful boquet of American beauty and’ mareschal roses, dark red and cream white, and was attired in a neat traveling suit of stylish make, with full sleeves, vest front and collar of ostrich tips. Her hat was trimmed with lace entwined with roses. Her happy countenance lost none of its bnghtness while the beautiful words were pronounced that made her Mrs. Campbell. Her husband wore a black Prince Albert suit. They re- ceived many congratulations on their way from the altar to the carriage in which, with the brides father, they were conveyed from the church to the railway depot, Mrs, George Cox and the younger members of the family followed in another carriage. The numerous friends had an Where it all ame from is a mystery, but it fell upon Mr. and Mrs. Campbell in a perfect shower as they went aboard the train, and it deluged the seats of the railway car. ‘The conventicnal slipper was not forgotten, and the bride’s trunk, kindly cared for by inti- mate friends, was protusely decorated with white ribbons, slippers and shoes and a pyramid of rice was piled on its top. Mr. Campbell’s satchel was also decorated in general wedding style. Rev.

He met his fate here and his bride be= came a resident of Hibbing soon after his departure for the ironrange.

In northern Illinois and Indiana Mr, Lydick found different conditions and people who could change locations with benefit both to themselves and to the districts to which they may emi- grate. He traveled over the Milwau- kee & St. Paul and Grand Trunk rail- ways, and while they offered every comfort, yet the eastern trip was unpleasantly warm on account of the extremely hot weather which he ex- perienced. Finishing the Drives. The river drivers are making a special effort to break the jam be- tween the Vermillion and White Oak point and it is expected that logs will be running freely through Pokegama dam next week. «C. H. Douglas’ men are working on the Vermillion drive and that, with the Bear river drive, which includes the logs of Freeman & Gray, Clark Clay and some smaller loggers, will clear the upper river for the season. If these logs get down to Pokegama dam reasonably soon, which seems to be likely, the Minne- sota Boom company will probably make another drive from here and clear the river early next month from this point to a jam which now exists just above Brainerd. They aré taking no more logs over the Brainerd dam at present but are holding them in the flowage above there. The prospects are that the lumbermen will doa good deal more logging next winter than thepublic knows of at this time. The summer talk of restricting the log- ging operations generally quits when cool weather sets in, and certain pre- parations now under way indicate that the coming season will not show very much change from the general ex- perience of the past. THE UNION OF HEARTS. A Marriage Ceremony That Attracted a Large Gathering of Friends. The wedding of Rev. Charles A. Campbell to Miss Alice M. Cox half past seven o’clo i y morning filled the Pre an church with interested friends. In fact, quite anumber contented themselves with standing room during the pleasing ceremony.

H. Cleland of the First Presbyterian church, Duluth. Messrs. T. R. Pravitz, F. P. Sheldon and George Booth, who acted as ushers, stood witnesses to the mar- tiage, while the bride’s father, Mr. at DEFE PROCEEDINGS OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE Village of Grand Rapids Held Aug. 11th, 1896.

An entertainment of unusual merit has been arranged by the ladies for the benefit of the piano fund. They have secured the Talma Saldini, a brillant dramatic reader and impersonator who is to appear at Village hall on Tuesday evening, August 25. His attractive program, enutled “I'he Human Pas- sions,” will be supplemented with in- strumental music and singing by local talent. Of Saldini’s marvelous pow- ers, the Marquette Daily Mining Journal says: “it is not our aim to drift into eulogy, yet we must confess such wonderiul power of passion it was not our fortune to witness before. We were simply spell bound. His facial changes are a study and a revelation.” The fine piano bought for Vil- lage hall last year through the efforts of a zealous corps of ladies has been of great value in contributing to the success of the meetings and entertain- ments that have been held there. Both old and young have gained pleasure from its music, It was: used to advantage by the old soldiers for the Decoration Day exercises, It was used for church affairs and dra- matic performances, and for various entertainments which have been held. These ladies and the piano have well earned the good will and support of the entire community and the attend- ance of everyone is wurgently desired for the purpose of raising the pay- ment which 1s now due upon the ins- trument. The opportunity to hear such a talented attraction as Talma Saldini is seldom offered outside of the layge cities. His reputation and his high testimonials prove conclusive- ly that his masterly renditions are of the most meritorious character, EXCURSION RATES. G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT, MINNESOTA STATE FAIR.
