BEAUDESERT, Wednesday.'97 After completion of repairs suf-ficient to maintain a normal elec-tricity service in Beaudesert, a temporary stoppage was caused last night when a truck backed into an electric light pole, result-ing in a short circuit.
This morning, when the 104 h.p. engine was approaching a full load the air starter valve cage burst. One fragment narrowly missed the engineer (Mr. J. C. Grier).
Through the Brisbane agents and the State Electricity Board a partly broken part was obtained; this was welded, and will be fit-ted, it is hoped, in time to resume the normal service about 5 p.m. to-morrow.
Until 9.30 to-night electricity was not available in the town sec-tion of Beaudesert, but the hospi-tal section was serviced.

During the signing of the re-gister Mr. S. Allen rendered a solo. Miss H. Johnson attended as brides-maid, and Mr. W. Grier was best man. As the bride and bridegroom were leaving the Church they passed be-neath an arch formed by members of the R.A.O.B., of which society the bridegroom is an active member. Sub-sequently a wedding breakfast was served at an hotel, where relatives and a few intimate friends of the bridal pair were entertained.
