Dogs Attack
Two dogs attacked a flock of
turkeys on the Dr. Moore farm one day this week, scattering the flock and biting
a couple of the fowls so severely that death resulted. A shotgun was brought
into use, but owing to distance or poor marksmanship the dogs escaped with their
lives. Ele Ogg, who tenants the farm is practicing shooting and a different
result may be expected the next time dogs attack any of the stock on the farm,
so it would be a wise move on the part of the owners of the canines to keep them
at a safe distance and not allow them to visit that particular vicinity.

It has just leaked out that

Cahoon, and there in the presence of the minister's family listened to the words
which united them in the holy bonds of matrimony, the ceremony taking place at
The groom is well known and
popular among
The bride is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Ager, and is a young lady of estimable qualities. She has
grown to womanhood in this city and is esteemed by all.
So carefully did the young
couple guard their secret that on the evening of the ceremony, Mr. Bromz was not
on hand at the appointed time to sing his song at the Grand and another reel of
film was run, after which the groom appeared and rendered his part of the
program, offering no reason for the delay beyond the fact that it was impossible
for him to get there on time, but their was nothing in his manner to indicate
that he had just a few minutes before taken unto himself a life partner. The
bride too kept her own counsel and not even her most intimate girl friends were
let into the secret.
They are an estimable young
couple and the Advance-Herald joins with their multitude of friends in wishing
them a safe and pleasant journey upon the sea of matrimony.
