Mackln, Tas tor of thn Church, In the Presence of a Small Company, Washington, (Special.) Admiral George Dewey nnd Mrs. Mildred M. Hawm were marrlod quietly at the rectory of St. Paul's Catholic Church In V street, near Fifteenth, this city, shortly before ten o'clock Thursday morning. Tho ceremony was performed by the Rev. Jamea F, Maokln, pastor of the ohurch, assisted by the Rev. Joseph H. Foley, asslstnnt pastor, and the Rev. Sidney Hurl but. The ceremony was of the simplest character, aocordlng to the rites of the Cath olic Church, and the only witnesses besides the officiating olergymen were Mrs. Wash ington McLean and Mrs. Ludlow, wire of Admiral Ludlow, mother and sister, respec tively, of tho bride, and Lieutenant Cald well, Admiral Dewey's secretary. The arrangements for the wedding wern madn with all tho secrecy which has attend ed the whole affair. After procuring the license for thn wedding Lieutenant Caldwell called upon Father Mackln, of St. Paul's, of which church Mrs. Har.en Is a communicant, and arranged for tho wedding. As Admiral Dewey I not a Catholic, a special dispensa tion was required for the performance of tho ceremony, and this was procured by Father Mackln from Bishop Curtis, vicar general of tho Diocese of Baltimore. At 9.45 two carriages containing the wed ding pnrty drew up before the modest red brick rectory In the rear of St. Taul's. The general publlo bad no intimation of where the ceremony was to take place, and not a single spectator was present as the party alighted.

Upon bolng presented to Father Mackln the Ad miral sold he had heard that Father Mackln had In his early years been a sailor, and It gave him additional happiness to know that be was to be married by a clergyman who had at one time followed the sea. Father Mackln replied that when he found he could not become an admiral, he hnd determined to become a priest. Mrs. Huzen removed her wrap, and she and the Admiral Immedi ately took their places In the center of the little reception room, where the ceremony was performed which (hade them man and wife. Father Mackln and his assistants wore simple black cassocks. The ceremony was performed with tho ring, according to the nuptual rites of tbe Catholic Church. Including the address of Father Mackln, It consumed less than five minutes. Father Mackln was the first to ball the bride as Mrs. Dowey. Congratula tions and felicitations followed, and the wedding party drove directly from the rec tory to the residence of the bride's mother, Mrs. McLean. After arriving at thn McLean residence. Admiral Dewey was driven to his own house. There he changed his costume for a travel lug suit, returning to the McLean residence on foot. The wedding breakfast at Mrs. McLean's lasted an hour. There were pres ent only the bride and groom. Mrs. McLeun, Mrs. Ludlow, Lieutenant Caldwell and Mr. Fred Burgher. Tho table was elaborately decorated with bride's roses. SERVICE STRIPES. Uniformed Force of the Ilaltlniore and Ohio Provided With Gold Lace. Early this full the management of tbe Bal timore and Ohio Railroad decided that the uniformed force should be provided with service stripes, and on the winter uniforms each man ha one or more gold stripe on hi right sleeve If be has been lu the service for Ave year or more. The gold stripe stands for five years continuous employment by the company, and a glnuoe over the list develops an Interesting and Instructive con dition of affairs. The ordinary man, in a peaceful and un eventful vooatlon, I seldom lu continuous service for forty years, yet ou the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad there is a hale and hearty old man, with keen, undlmmed eyes, and a springy step that bas been in the continuous employ of the company for 50 years. W. II. Green Is his name, but everybody on tho Hue calls him "Captain Harry." Captain Green Is probably the oldest pns souger conductor In the world and weurs ten stripes on his right arm. Next to Captain Green, in length of ser vice, comes S. It. Hume, who Is entitled to nine gold stripe of five years each. 8. T. Gill aud H. Riley aro weuring eight stripes, nud there are seven od thn bluo coat sleeve of E. Cuskey, J. F. Galloway, J. E. Loe, E. R. Mullen, W. L. Pearl, A. E. Pickett and L. G. Wutklus. It is a remarkable fact that the conduc tors of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad represent so many year of service. In fact, the average for 11)1 conductors is 20 years. Some of the passenger brakemon have seen long years of continuous employment, there being three entitled respectively to four, five and six stripes. For many years Bnltlmoro and Ohio train employes have had an enviable reputation for politeness to passengers nud alteutiou to duty, and tbe adoption of the service stripe system will give the traveling public un op portunity to recognize long und faithful service.
