William Weldon Darling, son
of Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Darling,
of this city, was married to Miss
M. Charlotte Taber, of Portland,
in Baker City, on Monday July 6.
The bride is the only daughter
of the late Clark Taber, of Port
land, who recently died in that
city and was buried in Baker
City on July 6. Mr. Taber's
dying request was that the young
people should marry as they had
planned and that the obsequies
should not interfere with the
wedding.
The groom is well-known in
this city where he lived with his
parents a number of years
before going in business in Port
land. The bride formerly lived
in Baker City. The young people
will make their home in Portland.
District Attorney Burdette, of
Arlington, was a Moro visitor
this week on business connected
with his official life. Mr. Bur
dette is greeted with a most
hearty welcome in his new field
and the people will be marshaled
to h'8 support in the discharge
of his responsible duties. Moro

The cool, refreshing banks o
Thirty-Mile proved enticing dur
ing the hot days and a number
of people from the Sniption
Ridge neighborhood repaired to
the banks of the stream to enjoy
a couple days' fishing and gen
eral recreation. Among those
who made up the party were the
Lmville, Downer and Ramey
families and James Bowman and
W. E. Shea. They were fishing
Monday afternoon when friends
a few miles away rode up to the
place where the party was cam
ping to warn them of the im
pending waterspout and sure
enough it did come. By making
haste the party got out safely.
The fishermen report a good
catch.
