INDIANA G- A. R.

The Date of the Next Kncatiipment—Doatli Kate in the Order.

The Indiana G. A. R. encampment will be held in Indianapolis on May 17 and 18. Commander Dunlap made this announcement, on Tuesday. Indications are that a movpment will be started in the Indiana encampment to admit Sons of Veterans to the G. A. R. in all but voting privileges. The S. of V. have not been doing well in recent years as a seperate organization and it is thought this move would be a happy way to end its days and at the same time perpetuate the G. A organization. The reports for the year show a heavy mortality and the deaths for the year will be 33 per cent greater than last year. This means about 500 and would reduce the membership to about 17,000. At present there are 477 posts in Indiana. The Spanish-American war veteran question will hardly come up again.

Wedding Bells.

A most beautiful wedding was solemnized at the country home of Edward Coleman, two miles eest of Linden, Dec. "0 His daughter Clara was given in marriage to Ferdinand P. Wilbert, of iCollinsville, 111. The rooms were handsomely decorated in holly, carnations and rose s, aud a large number of friends and neighbors were assembled in them when at the appointed hour, p. m., Mrs. Arthur Fraley bpgan the Mendelssohn wedding march and the bridal party advanced from the north rooms preceded by the minister, Rev. Robert Harris, of the Veedersburg Christian church, and little Mies Orphia Montgomery as ring bearer. The ceremony was a most impressive one, embodying the ring service. Immediately after the ceremony the bride and groom led the way to the dining room. The table was beautifully decorated with ribbons extending from the ceiling to the tables and roses. The bride was dretsod in white French batiste, trimmed in lace, and carried American beauties. The groom wore the conventional dresTs suit. An elaborate dinner was served in courses. Eddie Brandkamp discourstd most beautiful music throughout the evening. The bride is a most charming young lady who hes a. host of friends wherever 6he is known, who extend to them congratulations and bcssc. wishes for the future. The groom is a prominent salesman of Indianapolis and all who have met him are well pleated with his pleasant address and busioess ability^ arid the outlook fo their future life seems most auspicious. A very large number of presents were sent in, consisting of cut glass, china, silver, table linen, etc. Mr and Mrs Wilbert gO to Sr.. Louis to spend the holidays with the groom's parents, returning the first of the year to Indianapolis, where they will be at home at 610 east Ohio street.

Contract for County supplier. The board of cooauitsKioners labored all day Thursday with the bids for supplies for the county officers for the year 1900. The supplies are divided into three classes, z: Blank books, special ruled blanks and the like, pens, pencils and all ofli:e sundries, and lastly, envelopes, letter heads, and all printed matter that can be done in a small printing office. W. H, Morrison bid 81,196 50 on the first class, $227 00 on the second class, and $270.70 on the third class C. E. Lacey bid $216 45 on tbe second class, the Review bid $324.15 on the third clasB, and The Journal Company bid $1,999.25 on .class one, and $479 25 on class three. Bids from Wm. B. Burford and Baker & Thornton were received by mail at half past ttn o'clock, but were not opened, as the hour 6et in the advertisewent was ten o'clock. After considerable legal advice all local bids were thrown out because the bidders had not complied with the law in having their bids accompanied by a bond and an affidavit that they were not in collusion. Thus the only bidder left wa6 Morrison. As his figures seemed reasonable and will make the county supplies cost not over, one-half the uual amount the board accepted his bid.
