Sanders-Wagner.

Thursday evening at nine o'clock in the private parlor of the Grand Hotel, Miss Beryl Gertrude Wagner and Mr. Henry F. Sander, manager and owner of the hostelry, were united in the bonds of matrimony, by the Rev. Jas. F. Sanders, pastor of the First Baptist church. The guest list included only a few of the intimate friends of the bride and groom who witnessed the nuptial service and the after event, an elegant prepared wedding supper.

Mrs. Sanders the bride of last evening, has been a resident of Keokuk for the past three years, coming to this city from Bonaparte, and having been employed at the Grand. She is a young woman of admirable character, and has shown herself capable of becoming the life companion and helpmate of the prosperous hotel proprietor.

Mr. Sanders is one of the leading business men of the city and his house has been a prominent and favorite stopping place for both the transient and local public. Hosts of friends extend sincere congratulations and best wishes to the participants in the last evening's marriage ceremony and wish for Mr. and Mrs. Sanders added added success and a bright and happy future. -- Gate City
