Let us believa in Him who is the resurrection and the life, in Him who promises that we shall never die. If we do so, when the time of judgment arrives we shall ftll meet again to enjoy companionship in that happy land where there are no separations." The RevMr.|Mutchinson paid ,n eloquent tribute to Mr. Washburne's iersonal character, his intelligence, arnestness, and faculty for making ''riends. "To live in hearts we leave behind us is not to die," concluded the preacher.

Wedding Flower*..

A very pretty wedding occurred last Thursday evening at 8 o'clock at the residence of the bride's father, Dr. S. R. Millikan, the contracting parties being William A. Hughes and Miss Nellie Millikan. Elder E. S. Conner, pastor of the Christian Church, performed the ceremony. Only the immediate relatives and intimate friends of the bride and groom were present, bnt for that very reason, perhaps, the occasion was all 1 he more enjoyable to those who did participate iu the festivities. After the ceremony refreshments were served, and then all repaired to the residence of the groom's mother, Mrs. M. A. Hughes, on South street,-where Curry's orchestra awaited them, and a highly enjo} able time was had during the rest of the evening. The bride, and groom are both well known and popular young people, and th 3 REPUBLICAN wishes them abundant success, joy, happiness atid prosperity.
