A large room was set apart on the second floor of the White House for the reception of the presents, and this was filled to overflowing. The Roosevelt have many wealthy connec tions, and the Longworths are allied to families of large fortune in the Middle West Magnificent gifts were sent by the Cornelius Vahderbilts. the John Jacob Astors, the Millses, the Coelets and Bon dens. It is said tkat at Tiffany's alone more than $100,000 worth of jewelry and bric-a-brac was ordered for the wedding. STORY OF THS COURTSHIP This, in brief, is the happy culmination of a romance that has kept society astir at the national capital for the last two years. The love story began really a year or so earlier, soon after Mr. Long worth was elected to congress, and short ly succeeding Miss Roosevelt's "coming out" But it was not until the young rep resentative had become a frequent visitor at the White House and was ofte seen in Miss' Alice's company that their friends began to read a courtship in , their asso- vUHnm - " 1 - - ' It is asserted that Miss Roosevelt said No" to his wooing at least a dozen times He only smiled fnd said that he would ask her again. She received many at tentions from other eligable young men. Still he smiled and said it did not worry him the least. She told him at the thea tre on night, in the presence of a box party, that she "hated bald-headed men." He grinned good-naturedly, and remarked that his future wife would be unable to pull hie locks. At all rebuffs and dis couragements he merely smiled, and re fused to be cast down. It is said that he Anally gained her consent-to his suit while they were visiting the Imperial Palace at Pekln. As they entered the portal of the Emperor's home he asked for the thir teenth time, "Will you be my wife?" and she replied, "I'll give. you an answer" be fore we leave this building." What she said after that is not recorded, but during the remainder of the tour, it was noticed that Mr. Long worth $ smile was even more genial, more confident, ,and more frequent than before, and he Was, if any thing, more devoted in his gallantries. The engagement was formally art' nounced by President and Mrs. Roosevelt on December 12th last, from which time Miss Alice, when not belrg feted by her numerous friends, was almost constantly occupied in arranging for her trousseau and the minor details of the wedding, Many of the invitations 'were addressed in her own hand. Her gowne are all of American fashion ing, most of them having been made by a celebrated New York modiste. The wed ding garment is of rich brocaded satin, woven from an exclusive pattern in a Paterson (N. J.) mill. It is cut princesse tyle, as are nearly all. the dresses worn by the President's daughter, with a neck Land yoke of point lace, elbow sleeves and court train. ' Several of her reception and ball gowns are of materials given her by the Dowager Empress of China and other distinguishsd personages whom she met on her tour of the Orient There are beautiful Chinese. Japanese, and Indian silks and the delicate pina of the Philip pines. . Miss Rsosevelt is said to have had no less than a dezen gowns made. There were several cloth dresses, in addition to those made of Oriental stuffs, a yellow satin evening gown, a pink satin dinner gown, a yellow chiffon tea gown made over satin, and a cloak for the opera. One of the special designs woven at the Pat erson looms reproduces the Roosevelt crest in the silk and makes a novel and attractive effect The bridegroom of today was born in Cincinnati on November 6, 1869. The4 honored name and the family fortune were there when he arrived. He has done nothing to dim that fame, nor has he made any effort to dissapate thi fortune. His career has been an agreeable one. He found the way to prestige already paved for him. Wealth social standing, and political prefermer t have been his without the asking. He attended the Cincinnati public schools, then went to Harvard, graduating with the A. B. degree in 1 89 1 . In college he was more distinguished as a musician than as a student although proficient in a general way. He belonged to a glee club in his junior year, and with it made a tour of the United States, his talent as a violinist bringing him encomiums every where. Music ie yet his passion, and perhaps the most prized of his possess essions, save only the 'fair woman whom he made his bride today,- is a genuine Stradivarius, which he discovered in Cin cinnati and on which ha extemporizes in a manner that marks the born musician. He spent one year in the Harvard Law School, then finished his local training in the Cincinnati Law School, being admitt ed to the Ohio bar in 1894. As a coun sellor he succeeded indifferently, and in 1898 he entered politics. Admission was not difficult for him. George B. Cox, who ruled the destines of the Republican party in Hamilton county gave him a friendly lift and helped him into the school board ur 1.1902. On February 6th or the same year, by special invitation from the Emperor cf 0nnan, she christened th royal yacht" "Metjor." Since then her. career has been one succession of social tru:np s.

He acquit ted hi-.self with credit two important laws touching on the government of mu nicipalities bearing his name, and he was again promoted, this time to membership in the 68th Congress of the United States. as Representative of the First Ohio Dis trict He did little in that session, as new comers usually do. He sat in the back ground and studied the ropes, making only one speech in the two years, and that on the proposition of providing the embassies and legations of the United States With homes at government expense. He was renominated and re-elected,- and is now serving hie second term. . It was his election to Congress that the door opened, to the One love affair of Nicholas Lo.ngworth's life. Before taking his seat he paid a visit to Washington, principally to get his bearings and learn his future duties. President Roosevelt whose acquaintance he - had previously made, invited him to dine at the White House. It wis at this dinner that he first saw Miss Alice. Mr. Longworth is a man of healthy tastes and worldly knowledge. He as seen much of social life, hae traveled ex tensively. Is popular as a clubman, and has a wide circle of friends and acquaint- inos am.ij tha tmtpjipls of the land He is athletic, a devotee of golf as welM as some of the more lively sports, such as baseball and - horseback riding. The Longworth estate is valued at several million dollars. Parts of it have already 33en divided am in 2 tin children, ani Nicholas Longworth has received a gen erous share. Some day he will be mas ter of a large fortune in his own right. SKETCH OP THE BRIDE " She is the daughter of President Roosevelt's first wife, Alice Lse, of . Bos ton, and bears her mother's nam a. Two days after her birth, Feb, 11, 1884, her mother died, and Theodore Roosevelt heartbroken and desperate, fled to , the Western plains to forget . his grief. The wee baby was left in care of her aunt, now Mrs. William S. Cowles. and th af fection wh'ch grew between them has strengthened with the years. When Alice was three years old Theo dore Roosevelt married Miss Edith Ker mit Carow, who very soon learned to love as her own child the motherless little one. Th tender sympathy existing be; tween Mrs. Roosevelt and Mrs. Cowles has a natural explanation, therefore, for both have the same . deep affection for the girl who became a bride today. Miss Alice's girlhood was spent in New York and Boston, and was not unlike the school girl and academic years of the ordinary child of wealth. Miss Alice was "brought out" on Jan ft' ' 4 S v f, Fine Confectionery : and Cigars Ar VantJuren s j Aurdlia Stock 'Reports from the mines during January has warranted a raise, consequently stock has gone . up to 7J cents, and this is not all, it will keep going up as long as the property gets better, as it is you should buy before another raise in price, or you will miss a good investment."

Orino LaxativA Fruit Syrup is a new laxative syrup combined with the deli cious flavor of fruits, and is very pleas ant to take. It will not gripe or sicken, it is much more pleasant and effective than Pills, Tablets and Saline Waters, as it does not derange the Stomach, or irritate the Kidneys, Liver or Bowels.. Constipation. . Oarao Laxative Fruit Syrup will posi tlvlv cire chronic constitution as it re stores the natural action of the intestinal tract. Ordinary cathartics may eive tern porary relief but the stomach is upset and the bowels are irritated without any permanent benefit having been derived The condition of the patient remains on- changed. The Stomach, Liver and Bowels have not been stimulated and in a lew days a stronger purgative may have to be taken. This is why fills and Aperient Waters never give permanent relief. Their violent action results in an unnat ural movement of the bowels and it is nec essary to keep taking them indefinitely. Why ORINO Is different. Orino Laxative Fruit syrup is the only preparation that really acts upon all of tha digestive oreans. Other nrenar- ations act upon the lpwer bowel only and do not touch the Liver. It can very read. ily be seen that a preparation that does not act upon all of the digestive organ. can not cure Chronic Oonstipation.Torpid iuuisobuoo, oour Btomacn, etc. : For Biliousness and Sick Headache. Take Oarao Laxative Fruit Syrup. ' It sweeten the stomach, aids digestion and acts a a gentle stimulant on the liver and bowels without irritating these organs. Clears the Complexion. Oanio Laxative Fruit 8yrup stimulates the liter and thoroughly cleanses the . system and clears the complexion of pimples and blotches., It is the best lax ative for women aud children as it is mild and pleasant, and does not gripe or sicken.
