ONLY A FEW FRIENDS PRESENT
New York, May 14.—In order to es-
tape the unlucky 13th of the month,
William Ellis Corey, president of the
United States Steel Corporation, and
Mabelle Gilman, the former actress,
were not married until after midnight.
The ceremony took place in the royal
suite at the Hotel Gotham, in the pres-
ence of a small party of friends of the
contracting parties. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. J. L. Clark,
pastor of the Bushwick Avenue Con-
gregational church, of Brooklyn.
The royal suite in the Hotel Gotham
is on the third floor on the Fifth ave-
nue side, and consists of eight rooms.
The salon and the dining rooms were
decorated with hundreds of American
beauty roses. The management of the
hotel and those in charge of the dec-
orations were given carte blanche, and
the wedding is said to have cost $5000,
The banquet was one of the most
sumptuous ever served in this city.
After the supper was over the party,
led by Mr. Corey and his bride, passed
down the hall between the rows of
palms to the double salon, which was
decorated to represent a small church.
Broad white ribbons attached to small
white posts formed an aisle down the
centre of the room, on either side of
which were the chairs for those invited
to witness the ceremony.
At the head of the aisle was a small
white altar before which was a prie
dieu covered with white silk, at which
the couple knelt during the ceremony.
On each side of the altar rose a white
column, the two being joined by an
arch. The columns and arch were
heavily draped with smilax, dotted
with hundreds of orchids. From the
centre of the arch hung a large wed-
ding bell of lilies of the valley.
There was no music, and there were
no bridesmaids, Miss Gilman being at-
tended only by Miss Frances Erskine
Shaw, of l.ondon. Mr. Corey was unat-
tended.
After the nuptials Mr. Corey and his
bride took an automobile and were
whirled away to Hoboken, where they
boarded the steamer Kaiser Wil
helm II, which sailed for Europe. Mr.
and Mrs. Corey will proceed to Paris
and will then go to the Chateau Genis,
25 miles from Paris, where the honey:
moon will be passed. They expect to
remain there until they return to
America about the middle of July.
Mr. Corey's only gift to his bride
was the Chateau Genis.
Among the guests at the wedding
were: Mrs. Jeannette Gilman, mother
of the bride; Mr. and Mrs. A. A.
Thomas, of McKeesport, Pa., brother
in-law and sister of the bride; Mr. and
Mrs. Albert Peck, of Gloversville, N.
Y.; Mr. and Mrs. Alfred A. Corey,
father and mother of the groom, of
Braddock, Pa.; Mr. and Mrs. A. A.
Corey, Jr., of Donore, Pa.; Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur Stanley Riggs, of New
York, brother-in-law and sister of the
groom; Miss Frances Erskine Shaw,
of London; Judge and Mrs. Elbert H.
Gary, of New York, and Mr. and Mrs.
Alva Dinkey, of Pittsburg.
“ WATCH SAVED HIS LIFE
Bullet Aimed at Man's Heart Hit His
Timepiece.
Scranton, Pa., May 13.—Claude Wa-
ters, a railroad engineer, owes his life
to a watch which he carried in his vest
pocket. Waters, Peter Molehon, an
Italian, with a crowd of other people,
were watching an amateur base ball
game in Little England, a suburb of
Scranton, when a row began over a
dog which the Italian owned. When
the crowd began to press upon Mole-
hon, he drew his revolver and fired
point blank at Waters.
The bullet hit the watch in Water's
pocket almost in direct line with the
heart. He fell, either from the force
of the ball or from fright, but when he
was picked up he was found to be un-
injured. The Italian was placed under
arrest.
’ Murder Ends Boyish Quarrel.
Brunswick, Me., May 13.—Cherishing
resentment over a boyish quarrel that
took place two weeks ago, Sydney Pre-
ble, 15 years old, shot and killed Morris
W. Heath, aged 18 years, in Bowdoin.
The crime was not discovered until M.
S. Heath, father of the murdered boy,
found the body buried under pine spills
and leaves at the edge of a swamp.
Preble was arrested and immediately
confessed the crime.
Where a Rainbow Touches the Earth.
In every country in the world rain-
bow folklore declares that some ob-
ject of value may be found where
the ends of the beautiful arch
touch the earth. In Suabia the ends
are said to rest on bowls of gold; in
Hungary, that cups of silver will be
found at the spot where they come in
contact with the earth. In Switzer-
land it is said that a shoe cast over the
rainbow will come to the ground on
the other side filled to overflowing
with gold. In Bosnia it is said that if
iron or other base metal ha) to

to pure gold.

The Oldest Toy.
The most primitive toy is the doll.
ing younger children, would imitate
Toy weapons, again, are older than
history. Many of the older toys at
present in use date from the earliest
times of which we have any record.
In the tombs of the ancient Egyptians,
along with painted dolls having mov-
able limbs, have been found marbles,
leather covered balls, classic balls and
marionettes moved by strings. Ancient
Greek tombs furnish clay dolls, toy
horses and wooden carts and ships.
In the Louvre there are some Greco-
Roman dolls of terra cotta with mov-
able joints fastened by wires. Greek
babies had' rattles (platage). Greek
boys played with whipping toys. So
did the boys in ancient Rome (Vergil-
Aen.; bk. 7). Horace speaks of chil-
dren trundling hoops, playing odd and
even with nuts, ete.
The English Wedding Ring.
A man who was buying a wedding
ring unconsciously imparted the infor-
mation that the bride was an English’
woman.
“Then this ring will never suit her,”
sald the clerk. “It is a good ring, but
it is eighteen karat. Nothing less than
a twenty-two karat wedding ring will
satisfy an Englishwoman. The eight-
een karat ring is the usual wedding
ring in this country, but in England
and France, and indeed in most Euro-
pean countries, the bride would refuse
at the very altar a man who offered to
marry her with any other than a twen-
ty-two karat ring.”"—New York Sun.

Spring Mills.
Our fishermen report trout fishing very
unsatisfactory. They seem scarce in this
neighborhood.
J.H. Belland R. L. Cameron, of Holli-
daysburg, were here last week, visiting
friends in the valley.
Garden making has been slow work this
spring, too cold and wet to make any head-
way. The most that is planted at present is
the onion, few gardens are ready for any-
thing else, at least in this neighborhood.
C. E. Zeigler, dealer in musical instru.
ments, is building a very handsome portico
to bis residence. The dwelling is located on
the side of the “hill,” considerably elevated
from the town proper, and presents a very
attractive appearance,
D. H. Schlegel, the lightning plasterer, as
he is frequently called owing to the rapidity
of his work, of late has been very busy put-
ting down concrete walks and pavements
here and elsewhere. This business he un-
derstands thoroughly, consequently his serv.
ices are in great demand. Mr. Schlegel
has been forced to postpone a very considera-
ble amount of plastering and paper hunging
on account of previous engagements with
concrete work.
The board walks are being decidedly im-
proved. Our genial postmaster set the ball
in motion by putting down a concrete walk
in front of his residence, and he will eventu-
ally extend it to the postoffice building. Mr.
Allison has removed the old worn out board
walk from the mill to Rossman’s store and it
is now a fine gravel walk, and with the old
fence removed presents a fine appearance.
Several parties residing along the creek road,
are making preparations to put down con-
crete pavements.
During the week I stepped into the mil.
linery parlors of Miss Lizzie Stover to take a
general view of the spring and summer
shapes and styles of feminine headwear, al-
ways an interesting subject, and I must say
that the styles are all decidedly pretty; and
in fact, many are strikingly handsome. Miss
Stover when in the city displayed her usual
exquisite taste in selections, and in conse-
quence no better nor more stylish headwear
was ever brought to Spring Mills. She is
doing an excellent business.
Being in Penn Hall a day or two since I
met Mr. J. C. Condo, proprietor of the Penn
Hall carriage works, who kindly invited me
into the salesroom to take a look at the va.
rious styles of vehicles which had just been
arranged for inspection and sale. Carriages,
buggies, ranabouts, Concords and top spring
wagons are there in several styles and finish,
with running gears finished in high colors,
and all so highly polished that the panels
resembled mirrors. These vehicles are made
in the best possible manner out of thorough-
ly seasoned stock, and upholstered with
heavy imported English cloth. It was a
beautiful sight and well worth seeing. Last
week Mr. Condo sold six vehicles in Mifflin
county, and among them was an elegant
high grade Concord. The works are run.
ning on full time and doing a large business.
