At a dinner given by some of the youngsters of the regiment at the Fort the other evening, a drawing draw-ing was proposed and those whoBe numbers matched declared that they would marry before the regiment left for the Philippines. The guests of the officers were a number of the buds from town and one who was gamer than the others asked why delay until the regiment left? Whereupon Where-upon the chaplain was 'phoned and arrived in short order. Lieutenant Dixon was the fortunate man and one of the most charming debutantes in the city was the bride. It is said that all of the parties excepting the contracting ones are now a little worried as to whether it was a real marriage or not. Some say that it wanot the cnaplain who married them, but Captain Sillman, though others who look very knowing, avow that it was the chaplain. The friends of all concerned are anxiously awaiting the interesting inter-esting announcement which will exactly decide the status of the case. From all that can be observed locally, it is probably one of the prerogatives of an architect who assists in building a beautiful hotel to remain re-main at it for some months after its completion and make a business of oogling every decent woman wo-man who tries to dine at any of its tables In proximity to the Adoni3. His attentions at a distance dis-tance have become so annoying to numerous ladies lad-ies that it is quite remarkable that to date he has escaped the walloping that he deserves. As we understand it, there is a place in the basement base-ment where the colored help have their meals, and It would be a master stroke on the part of the hotel management if they would invite him to join them there, though possibly the gentlemanly gentle-manly waiters would object. Hyrum B. Dunn, vice president and general manager of the Payette Valley Railroad, arrived in the city on Wednesday with his bride, who was Miss Gecile Compton of Payette, daughter of C. A. Compton of that city. The marriage took place on Tuesdav at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joel L. Priest in Boise. Mrs. Robert A. Davis, a sister of the bride, was matron of honor, and the groom was attended by Mr. Priest, the Reverend Charles L. Chalfant of Boise perform ing the ceremony.
