CROWDED HOUSE
AT MOOSE PARTY
The Thanksgiving entertainment
given by the Moose at their hall in
Flat City last Wednesday evening was
thoroughly enjoyed by a very large
crowd. Following some appropriate
remarks by Mr. Kilgore, came the
musical numbers and recitations.
Mrs. Frank Monkman and Mrs.
Florence Porter gave some patriotic
pieces in a most creditable manner.
Roger C. McNally, James W. Farrell,
and Jay J. Johnston entertained the
audience with dialect selections.
Mrs. Ray Longtin accompanied by
Mrs. Earl Hunt at the piano, rendered
a poetical strain most charmingly;
George Slater, accompanying himself
oa the guitar, sang some popular airs
with much spirit, and further variety
in the program was furnished by the
orchestra. And lastly, Master Bill
Smith refreshed the minds of all with
the historical events that oocurred in
1492. All the participants responded
generously with encores, and if appre
ciation is any compensation they are
surely well paid for their endeavors.
A splendid supper was served, after
which the crowd indulged in dancing
for the rest of the evening.

HAPPILY WED
LAST TUESDAY
At the home of the bride’s parents in
this city, on Tuesday night, Miss Lu
cile Taylor, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles E. Taylor, and Mr. Earl B.
Hunt were united in the bonds of mat
rimony by United States Commissioner
A. M. Kilgore, in the presence of a
large number ot friends.
Notwithstanding the severity of the
weather — thermometers loitering in
the vicinity of 50° below zero-quite a
number guests were in attendance
from Flat City and other places in the
district.
Shortly following the marriage cere
mony and after hearty congratulations
and good wishes had been showered upon
the popular young couple, the entire
party proceeded to A. B. hall, where a
merry dance, interspered with songs
and instrumental music, was enjoyed
for nearly two hours.
Returning to tho residence of Mr.
and Mrs. Taylor, the guests enjoyed a
wedding supper that was bounteous
and delicious.
’Twas nearly 2 o’clock in the morn
ing when a long string of fast dogs at
tached to a comfortable basketsled
started for Flat Gity with the newly
weds aboard—going to the cozy new
home Mr. Hunt had prepared for his
bride.
Never in the history of this camp
has a more popular young lady —
and deservedly so—than the bride of
last Tuesday been led to Hymen's
altar. Having lived in our midst for
more than seven years, during which
time she occupied several trying and
responsible positions with credit to all
concerned, her over-cheerful and
kindly disposition predominated, and
the sunshine of her nature radiated.
Without the least exaggeration the
bride—“Little Miss Taylor” that was—
may safely count every man, woman
and child of her wide acquaintanceship
a well-wisher for her future happiness.
And now, as to the bridegroom, we’ll
assay him. Mr. Hunt is quite an old
residenter of the Northland. He fol*
lowed the mining game for several
years in the Nome country, before com
ing here in the spring of 1910, and
most of his time has been spent here
abouts since; has always taken an in
terest in local and social affairs, and
has quite a record in amateur athlet
ics; has followed a life of exemplary
habits, and in many characteristics
that count in the making of a good cit
izen and a true friend, Mr. Hunt will
stand the acid test.
Numerous costly, beautiful and use
ful presents from their many friends
made a display that would almost seem
an impossibility in this out-of-the-way
neck o’ the woods.

AGOIREGALLED
Commander James H. Hetherington,
U. S. A., retired, died at Philadelphia
o* September 17, at the age of 61 years.
Of his career the Seattle Post-Intelli
gencer said:
Commander Hetherington will be re
membered by many of the older inhab
itants of Seattle, who met him socially
nearly twenty-five years ago while he
was stationed on the old corvette Mo
hican, % frequent visitor to Seattle be
fore Puget sound had a navy yard.
Hetherington, then a lieutenant, was an
unusually handsome man, of fine figure
and engaging manners. He had been
involved before this time ia a tragedy
that attracted the attention of the
whole world. He had married a soci
ety girl of Washington, D. C., famous
for her beauty, and she bad gone witn
their two children to Japan to be near
him while he was on the Asiatic sta
tion. In Yokohama she became ac
quainted with an Englishman. Her re
lations with this man reached the ears
of her husband, who shot and killed
him in a public place in Yokohama.
When the circumstances of the case
were brought to light Lieut. Hether
ington was exonerated by both the
Japanese authorities and the navy, and
he continued in the service without
loss of standing, and possessing the re
spect and sympathy of his brother offi
cers,
The Hetheringtons were divorced
soon after the shooting. Mrs. Hether
ington drifted about, and in 1901 mar
ried a prominent citizen of Seattle,
afterward a county official. Her second
husband left her, and she endured the
disgrace of arreat in Tacoma late in
1911 as a vagrant. While she was in
jail she surrendered her 13-year-old
son to her erst husband, arid the boy
