Miller de- clared that Attorney F. C. Jacobs had made a proposition to get him his di- loma for $00. This sum was afterward reduced to $300, and Miller said that Ja- cobs had told Mrs. Rockwell, a client of the attorney, he had seen two members of the board in regard to the matter. added further that Jacobs had told him that if he would put the money in the bank Jacobs would make an {ron-clad contract In regard to the getting of the | diploma, and if the attempt to purchase | it failed it would not cost Miller a cent. In concluding his statement, Miller said | Ed Rea, son of ex-soss Rea, had told him that the Southern Pacific and Dan Burns had been instrumental in select- ing teachers for the Normal School, and that the Republican Good Government League kept Mrs. Place in her position. “I concluded,” said Miller, “if the South- ern Pacific had anything to do with the Trustees it was a boodle board and could be bought.” The first witness this morning in the case against Mrs. Place was Sidney Me.

The ceremony was set for 12 o'clock, but = when the guests arrived they found that the anxious couple had got there fifteen minutes before the appointed hour and that Rev. W. A. Breck had tied the nup- tial knot a full quarter of an hour before the time set down in the invitations. However, when Bloomquest's friends later saw his bride none blamed him be- cause he had set his watch ahead of time. Miss Swain made a petite and dainty bride and looked charming in her gown of gray silk, with a dash of pink em- broidery, black velvet and some handsome Irish point to set it off. A Virot hat completed the dainty costume of the girl who came all the way from Minneap- olis to wed the man of her choice. Mlss Julia Dean, the ingenue of the Neill company, attended Miss Swain as mald of honor and Elmer Bloomquest, a bfother of the groom, was best man. After the ceremony there was a bridal breakfast in the groom’s apartments on Jones street. Professional duties Interfered with the possibility of a ‘“honeymoon,” and last evening Bloomquest went through his part with the company at the California, while his charming bride sat In the wings trying to dispel his nervousness with loving smiles.
