Evenings Except BO. B. UBAKE, and Proprietor TUESDAY. JULY 2, 1912 Mr. and.

Mrs. nee Lowe, en Route to Mexico A marriage was solemnized at an early hour this morning that is of more than ordinary local interest because of the social prominence of the principals, when Miss Gladys Lowe became the bride of Mr. Arthur Percy Campbell. The event was not unexpected, for the engagement of these young people has been known for some time, hut the dale came earlier than even members of the two families anticipated. This was, In a measure, due to Imperative business engagements of the groom which would admit of no delay.

Mr. Campbell was recently offered and he accepted an appointment of engineer of the Caudelaria Mining Company, with headquarters at San Dimas, Mexico. The conditions of the contract required him to report for duty without delay. The situation determined the young people to hasten the Death Came to Her in an Oakland Sanitarium This wedding day and with less twenty-four hours' notice to than their Apparently In Good Health When She Left Woodland About a Week Ago nearest relatives they set about the final preparations promptly. A 1 marriage license was obtained at a late hour Monday- night, and Rev.

B. J. Baird was apprised their wishes that he tie the nuptial knot, ceremony was performed In the annex of St. Luke's at 7:30 morning in the presence of of the family only. The altar of the pretty little chapel was nicely decorated, Shasta daisies being the fea-; ture.

The bride wore a pretty blue tailor-made traveling suit. She was attended by Miss Hazel Barker and Mr. Lawrence Stephens was best man to the groom. The ring ceremony provided in the Episcopal marriage ritual was simple but very impressive. After the ceremony Mr.

and Mrs. Campbell drove to the residence ot his parents to say goodbye to his mother, who is confined to her bed by sickness. They then autoed to Davis, where they boarded a southbound tram for San Francisco. On Wednesday they will take a steamer for Mazatlan. whence they will travel by pack mules to San Dimas, their future home.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Campbell have lived in Woodland practically all their lives. They are both graduates of Woodland high school and Mr. Campbell also took an engineering course in the state university.

Both are wel known and popular and they have the good wishes of all the friends of bott families. Mrs. Campbell is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T.

H. Lowe and therefore comes of a pioneer fam ily. Mr, Campbell is the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. John Campbell.

Is a young man of exemplary charac ter and his bride is a young lady high ideals. A telegram was received this morn- Ing that shocked as well ns grieved the whole community. It announced the death at 6: 15 this morning, in an Oakland sanitarium, of Mrs. Kate S. Craig, wife of Joseph Craig.

This was the first intimation of many friends of the family that she was even sick. The members of the family and a very law intimate friends knew of her critical condition, but it was not generally known. She and her daughter, Miss Cassle, went to Berkeley about two weeks ago to visit Miss Elsie Craig. Last Saturday a week ago she first complained of feeling unwell. Mr; Craig was summoned last Wednesday and her son, J.

S. Craig, and daughter, Mrs. George Gray, were summoned on Saturday. Since that time she failed rapidly, and although the most eminent physicians were called in consultation none of them held out any hope for her recovery. When she left here a few days ago she was apparently in her usual health and the startling suddenness of her death was a painful surprise.

The body, accompanied by husband, illdren and friends, is expected to ar-' ve In thls city this evening. The uneral arrangements'will not be an- ounced until Wednesday. The maiden name of the" deceased as Rate S. Stephens. She was the aughter of the late John D.

and Mrs. Tary F. Stephens. She was a native and 57 years, 9 months nd 24 days old. Her father died, on he 27th of August, 18D8, and her lother died on the 9th of July, 1906.

he was educated in the public schools Yolo county and was a graduate roui Mills College, In which she was ver afterward deeply interested. She as one ol the organizers and most ctive and influential members of the lumui in this city. On May 1, 1874, she was married to oseph Craig of this city, who sur- 'Ives her.

Olson, Who Married Miss Craig, Found on Berkeley Campus Tlie shocking news of the suicide of Albert B. Olson, who was found dead on the Berkeley campus with a bullet hole through his head Monday even- Ing, about i) o'clock, was received in this city late Monday evening. Deceased was married to Miss Grace D.

Craig, daughter of W. P. and the late Mrs. Craig, former residents of Woodland, on April 13, 1907. The wedding occurred in this city and Immediately after the ceremony the happy young couple lett Berkeley, where Mr.

Olson had Fitted up a cosy residence for his bride. At that time he was employed in the advertising department of the S. P. with offices in San Francisco. More recently he had been acting as head salesman for a typewriting company.

His wife and four children ranging from nine months up to four and a half years of age, survive him. His parents, who reside in Paso Robles, are also living. The San Francisco papers this morning make no mention of the tragedy, but we learn from a friend of the family that despondency over a long.pe- riod of 111 health caused him to commit the awful deed. Shortly alter the San Francisco calamity of 1906 Mr. Olson was taken ill with ptomaine, poisoning.

Later he was operated upon for appendicitis. For the past three months he had oeen In miserable health. A short time ago he resigned his position and went to a farm at Mantika with hope of being benefited. On Friday of last week he returned Berkeley and went to a sanitarium for treatment. On Monday morning about 10 o'clock he disappeared from' the sanitarium and was found at 6 o'clock In the evening on the Berkeley campus with bullet hole in his head.

It is quite evident that Mr. Olson's temporary derangement must have been due to his brooding over his illness, for he and bis family lived happily together and he had a good position.

Mary Gray, wife of George Gray of Madison, and Miss hassle Craig of Woodland. Mis. Stephens was a devout mem- of the Episcopal church and she measured up to the perfect standard Christian womanhood. While unobtrusive in manner and gentle In demeanor the purity of her life and' iier Christian virtues were so conspicuous that her nobility of character was recognized by all who came with- the circle of her acquaintance. Charity was a part of her religion.

Her heart was filled with kindness and consideration for (lie welfare and happiness of others, though she was unostentatious in bestowing her benefactions. Not even her most intimate friends knew of many of her good deeds and if all of those whom she has helped could drop a flower upon her last resting place there would rise a mound of floral offerings overtopping the loftiest marble monument ever erected to (he memory of a good woman. She was very active and manifested much interest in fraternal matters, especially in the Eastern Star, in which organization she was specially honored by uolli the state and local Chapters. Those who were closely associated with her in fraternal life say that by precept and example she contributed to the virtue and purity of every fraternal circle in which she entered and exemplified the noblest PERSONALIENTION A.

jyS qualities of heart and mind. In her dally intercourse with friends and neighbors there was ever present that charm of manner that goes with tv pure and upright soul. Her dally walk in life, whether In the home, in soclely or church or fraternal circles, was singularly beautiful and exerted a wonderful Influence for good. It was this rare combination of lovable aud attractive attributes of character that wrought such ties of love and friendship that even death cannot sever them. Her home life was ideal.

All the wealth of her love, devotion and solicitude was centered upon her family. There was no sacrifice too great for her to make when the health, happiness and prosperity of those she loved were matters tor consideration. Her realization of the duties and responsibilities devolving upon her as the mother of a family and the queen of the lioiiKchoid enabled her to dignify the smallest, duty and render easy thn liimleal task. The patience, sublime fortitude and loving resignation with which watched over, guarded aud guided with her counsels the of her household and-anticipated their every want was Inspiring mid were clmiaoterJsllc of her gracious life.
