Drexel. of Philadelphia and London, were married today in fash ionable St. Margaret's Church, Westmin ster. The full ohoral service was con ducted by the Rt. Rev. Wlnnlngton-ln-gram. Bishop of London, assisted by Rev. H. H. Heason, Canon of Westminster Abbey, and rector of St. Margaret' Though the wedding was shorn of Some of the special splendor planned, because of the mourning of the court and the consequent absence of several royal per sonages who otherwise would have been present, , It was still the smartest func tion of the year. The bridal party and guests passed to the church through a long avenue of peo ple, some of whom mounted railings, while others had camp-stools in order to tet a good view. A squad of police was required to keep the route clear. The bride, with her Madonna-like face, never appeared to better advantage. She was voted the most beautiful bride that London has seen In many a long day, notwithstanding that the mediaeval ar rangement of her headdress was singular ly trying. Not another girl in London would have looked well in it. Miss Drexel wore a bridal veil, a small one of family lace, bound over her head like a cap and held down on her eye brows and the nape of her neck with a wreath of flowering myrtle. Her train was of regal splendor. As the procession marched up to the altar, the nave of the church appeared to have a veritable wall of daisies and lilies. Tall standards of them rose from every pew, reaching up 10 feet high, while the altar itself was em bowered with costly blossoms. The Drexels and the Wlnchelseas dlgned the register together, while the bridesmaids. wearing bandeaus of daisies Instead of hats, flitted about srivlng floral favors to the guests. Of the American bridesmaids, Nellie Post was much admired, while Mildred Car ter and Edith Wayne were the most businesslike in their distribution of (lowers. Lord Maidstone knelt with bowed Jiead throughout the ceremony. His responses were inaudible but the bride's words rang clear and she held lierself erect with easy, confident grace. The bishop was very Impressive in his address, dwelling with emphasis On the sanctity of the married state. - The bent-looking woman in the whole assembly was an American, Mrs. George L. Thompson, a mere girl, in an audacious dress of black gauze. ' Mrs. Anthony G. Drexel, Jr., (Majorle pold was a notable figure in white chiffon. The absence of the Roosevelt family was, much commented on. In the afternoon the bridal paid left for the continent. g WILLIAMS SEEKS DEATH j 1VH lii's Chum, Old Nevada I'artner, Vses Kazor. I-OS ANGELES. June 8. (Special.) Jack Williams, the story of whose life is part of the history of this country and Southern Nevada, lies on a cot In the Las Vegas Hospital, the victim of an attempt at suicide. - . Williams was a partner of Mark Twain and other notables during the early days of the Southwest. He won several for tunes in the mines and lost each in suc cession and at 70 years of age finds him self penniless and broken in health. Brooding over his lot. Mark Twain's death coloring his thoughts, he suddenly became overwhelmed yesterday with a desire to die. Seizing a razor he almost eevered his right wrist. . The attempt oc curred at the Fox House, at Las Vegas. Williams lay bleeding until so weak he could not rise from his bed. Believing there was no possibility of physicians pulling him through, and wishing to have his old dog brought to him, he managed to attract attention by knocking a bowl from a stand. Doctors believe he "will recover. SWEETHEART NOW SORRY Girl Whose letter Caught Kmbez zler, Regrets She Wrote. CHICAGO,. June 8. Special.) As Max Hubenstein was arraigned before the Municipal Court at the Harrison-street Police Court, Miss Birchie Hill today declared she was sorry that she had written the letter which caused him to urrender. to the police. Rubensteein is charged with embezzling $900 from Libby, McNeelll & Libby. He was returned to Chicago in charge of a detective. His case today was continued to June 17. 'I wrote that letter to him in Los Angeles because his mother and brother were worrying so about him after he ran away from Chicago," said Miss Hill. "And now 1 am sorry. I will not go to see him and will not testify unless I am subpenaed. I had other suitors at the time Mr. Rubenstein met me. He appeared a gentlemanly fellow and 1 had no idea that he was an embezzler until after his flight. Any talk that I would marry him Is absurd." John Arthur Gatens Killed.

EXAMINER CAUSES ARREST District Attorney's Office Hears of Alleged Shortage, Which Amounts to Only $2 00 Error in Book keeping Is lefense. H. N". Boehmer, confidential credit man, and bookkeeper for the United States Na tional Bank of Vale, was yesterday re ported at the office of the United States Attorney -for Oregon as being under ar rest, and charged with violation of the National banking laws concerning em bezzlement, false entries in the books, crooked reports to the Controller of the Currency and misappropriation of. money. The alleged shortage was discovered during an examination of 'the books of the bank conducted by National Bank Examiner Good hart. The latter immedi ately went before a Justice of the Peace at Vale and secured a warrant for the arrest, of Boehmer. who was later re leased under a. bond of $5000. Assistant United States Attorney Evans will not proceed in the case until after a com plete report has been submitted. Boehmer has been held under the same statute that formed the basis of the in dictment under which Jefferson W. Scri ber. cashier of the Farmers' & Traders National Bank, of LaGrande, was tried and convicted. It covers all irregularities in the conduct of a banking business. The total of the defalcation alleged against the bookkeeper of the bank is only $200. Examiner Goodhart is con sidered to be one of the coolest-headed men employed by the Treas ury Department and one who would not cause the arrest of an employe of a bank without justifying circumstances being in evidence.

The town is jrractically a heap of After the destructive earth shocks of yesterday. the 8000 inhabitants bivouacked last night in the country districts. The pssaere of the Roval train through the province afforded the occasion for frequent demonstrations by the populace. At every railway sta tion the King and Queen were greeted by crowds. When the train reached here it was suggested that Her Majesty break the trip lor a brief sleep, but she refused saying she wished to reach Calitri at the earliest possible hour.

That v tho time was not far distant when the brewers of the country would be found working hand in hand with the advo cates of true temperance reform was the prediction made by Carl J. Hoster, president of the United States Brew ers Association, at the opening ses sion of th 50th annual convention here today. Representative Boutell, of Illi nois, made a speech in which he op posed prohibition, advocated temper' ance in all things, and declared that temperance was "closely allied and al most akin to strength." President Hoster in his annual address to the 500 delegates, declared he had no apology to make for being a brewer and that he recognized every brewer as i promoter of "true temperance." Representative Boutell followed Presi dent Hoster and was cheered upon his Introduction to the convention. ' Lessons Gleaned From Elections. Three lessons, he said, were to be learned from tho several states that had put prohibition into effect. These, he contended, were: That prohibition did not prohibit. That when the open sale of mild bev erages was forbidden the surreptitious sales of strong spirits of an inferior qual ity greatly increased. That there was an appalling increase in promotion states in the demand for pat ent medicines'. tonics and narcotic liquors. He declared that prohibitory laws, wnetner eilectlve or ineffective, were regarded by the wisest statesmen and philanthropists as out of harmony with the spirit of an ideal government. "Is the use of beer by the citizen." Rep resentative Boutell Inquired, "what Lin coln said it was, "That which is exclu sively his own business,' or in the lan guage of the English philosopher Mills, entirely a 'self-regarding action," or is it an action injurious to society and there fore one that the state can forbid? Individual Should Choose. "In this country we first reversed the wisdom of the ages and agreed that the majority shall not interfere by secular legislation with any man's religion. Now we are quite agreed that it shall not en croach upon the individual in his choice of food, apparent amusements or occu pations." He concluded by saying that fortunately the cause of genuine temperance is ad vancing rapidly. 1 "Temperance in all things." said he, "is the amulet worn by all those who suc cessfully strive for the mastery. It is the crown of all human virtues. Temperance is closely allied and nearly akin to strength."
