TER. Claremore is a smalt station, with a neat, well-built church, and small parsonage. The membership is quite small, many of our people having moved away. The Sunday-school and congregation is now on the increase, two having united with the church on a recent Sunday, while others have lately moved to town and will unite soon. At a country appointment, a number was converted and nine were received on probation.

In July, the presiding elder asked me to take charge of Chelsea, which I did; and as a result of a revival meeting at a new point taken up, a class of twenty was organized, with an interesting Sunday-school, and a subscription taken to build a church 24x36 in size. On Sunday, Sept. 27, Riggs Chapel, which cost about $800, was dedicated by the pastor, all claims beging met. In the afternoon three were baptized and received into the church. Chelsea is struggling hard under a heavy debt on the church; but daylight is dawning.

A revival meeting is now in progress, conducted by the pastors of the two Methodist churches. Souls are converted nearly every night. The year will close with all collections taken, and most of them full J. C. Heemick: FAIRMOUNT NOTES.

East week a party from Fairmount drove out to Four Mde creek for a days outing. They report having had a splendid time with good fishing. It may be said, however, that judging from returns the fishing is as good now as before the excursion. Rev. Mr.

Bosworth, of Guthrie, Ok has been called to the church at Fair mount and has accepted the call. Mr. Bosworth has filled the pulpit at Fair-mount twice this fall. The congregation is most favorably impressed with his address and earnestness. The first number of Vol.

II of the Sunflower has appeared and presents a very attractive appearance in its bright colored cover, the emblem of the college, and the literary matter contained therein. The editors and the college are to be congratulated on having so creditable a production. The Fall Meet of the Fairmount athletic association will be held Oct. 19 at the Gentlemans Driving park. The events are the 100 yard-dash, 220 yard-dash )i mile run, mile run, mile run, 120 yard hurdles, mile walk, pole vault, running broad jump, running high jump, shot put, and hammer throw.

The president of the association is B. Isely; manager of the track team, C. V. Larimer. The judges of the Meet are Professors G.

M. Chase, A. N. Leonard and S. H.

Burnett. A tennis club, composed mostly of members of the faculty, has been organized and several exciting sets played. AS the Profs, are decidedly out of practice, we may expect to see them going about with their arms in slings. A meeting has been called for Wednesday evening, immediately after prayer-meeting, to consider moving the Mayflower church building in Fairview to the hill. Mr.

McDonald has given a site on Fairmount avenue, nearly opposite Col. Hutchisons. GREIDER-HOLLIDAY. Miss Minnie Greider and Mr. Oliver Holliday were united in marriage at the home of the brides parents, on the corner of Sixth avenue and Line street, Oct, 6, 1896.

Immediately after the clock chimed the hour of eight, soft tones of a wedding march were heard, and Miss Anna Lester leaning on the arm of Mr. Janies Hatfield, followed by the bride and groom, entered the parlor. After the sweet peals of the organ, at which Miss Flora Powers had pre sided, had ceased, Rev. D. McCormick stepped forward and spoke the solemn words which pronounced them man and wife.

After a short but fervent prayer and congratulations a delicious repast was served. The bride was handsomely attired in lavander silk, and carried a lovely bo-quet of tea roses, while the groom wore a suit of conventional black. Those witnessing the ceremony were only immediate relatives and several of the most intimate friends The wed- DRY GOODS. MARRIED. Dunhem-Harrison.

At 8:30, Wed-nesday evening, Sept. 30, at the residence of the bride, Miss Dollie Harrison, daughter of Chas. Harrison, of Silver Creek, to Mr. Isaac Dunhem, the Rev Samnel McKibben, uncle of the bride, officiating. The bride wore a beautiful costume of light blue henrietta with trimmings of white ribbon, lace and pearl.

The groom was attired in the conventional black. Mr. Albert Snider of Mayfield, acted as best man, and Miss Mabel Gilbert as brides maid. Miss Stella Downing presided at the organ. The house was beautifully decorated, a large bell being suspended from the archway between the parlors, under which the contracting parties stood during the ceremony.

After congratulations the guests repaired to the dinning room, where an elegant repast was served. The groom is a splendid young man of sterling qualities, and has lived in this comuni-ty for several years. The bride needs no introduction to Sumner county people, having lived in this county all her life. Her beautiful face and Christian character are noted by all with whom she comes in contact. Mr.

and Mrs. Dunham are members of the Silver Creek M. E. Church and the community is glad that they are not to loose them from their midst. A great many and useful presents were received, some of which are a dinner set and table linen, from the parents of the bride, a bed room set from the parents of the groom, a set of silver ware by Mr.

and Mrs. J. C. O. Morse, and a beautiful hand painted pitcher by Mabel Gilbert and Mr.

Snider. Many other presents too numerous to mention were given. Those present were: Rev. and Mrs. S.

McKibben, Mr. and Mrs. D. If Roberts, Mr. and Mrs Dunhem, Mrs.

J. O. Morse, of Hutchinson, Mrs. J. Downing, Miss Mamie Bybee, of Wellington, Mabel Gilbert, of Mayfield, Stella Downing-, Emma and Cora Morse of Hutchinson, Irene Mathews; Messrs Snider, Anderson, Spencer.

A reception was given on the following day by the parents of the groom. Mr. and Mrs. Dunhem will be at home to their many friends after Dec. 1st, one-fourth mile north of Silver Creek.

11 I D. Fay. Warren G. Fay was born near Mound City, Dec. 17, 1866; died at Bayneville, Sept.

29, 1896. Mr, Fays death was the result of an accident. On Sept. 7, while repairing his threshing engine, he was so badly scalded by escaping steam that from the first his friends entertained no hope of his recovv ry. All that loving hearts and kind hands could do done to alleviate his sufferings, but all in vain.

After three weeks of the most intense suffering, death at last came to his relief and he quietly fell asleep in Jesus While a student at the Lewis Academy, in Wichita, during the winter of 1887, he was converted and united with the M. E. church at Cartwright Chapel, of which society he was a member at the time of his death. On Feb. 20, 1893, he was united in marriage with Miss Ida A.

Stansburg of Cook county, Texas, who with two children, are left to mourn his loss. By his family, and those who knew him most intimately, Warren Fay was man greatly beloved, and one who by the uprightness of his character, and his many sterling virtues, enjoyed the respect and esteem of the whole community in a marked degree. The funeral services were conducted at the home of his parents by the Rev D. McCormick, of Belle Plaine, and were largely attended by the friends and neighbors of the family, who thus testified to their regard for the character of Mr. Fay, and their sympathy for the sorrowing family.

The interment took place at the Cartwright cemetery, where our brother was laid to rest in the sure hope of a glorious resurrection.
