McCutcheon, cartoonist, war correspondent and soldier of fortune, who was married Saturday to Miss Evelyn Shaw, has always had a hank ering to live in the haunts of pirates and buried gold. That left him a choice between New York City and Treasure Island. He took the island. After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. McCutcheon started on their trip to the land he has dreamed of ever since he sailed his boyhood brig under the skull and crossbones over the hills and dales of Indiana. McCutcheon recently bought Salt i r i r..t... ' Cay. the island of the Bahama group. perhaps better known as "Treasure Is land."

"This worse than barbarous cus tom," she said, "of deforming the ,waists of girls and women is far more injurious than the savage custom of flattening the head or the Chinese cus tom of binding the feet.

Theirs was the first "black wedding" on record. Except for t!ie white principals, the affair wrs as black .".s tho ice of spades. Wedding traditions weio hauled out in a bu.ich and smashed to pieces. The bride was clad in jet black from her hair and earrings to her toes. Tho groom wore a black suit, black silk shirt, black linen collar and block gloves. Later the wedding brtakfaEt at tho bride's home was served by black waiters in black. The menu consii:l- back brea i,!,,, coffco. It seemed ' . ..... hkc everything 'black in the world v.ts there but despair. "Black ', said the bridegroom, "is the ideal color for weddings.

Eastern Oregon Light & Power Co. Millions Spent on Art in New York New Vork, Jan. 22. (Special) Every once in a while a great painting changes hand at a figure that appears to be very largo and the public become cognizannt of the fact that an immense commerce in art is going on under its very nose in New York. A multimillionaire acquires a masterpiece that for centuries hfas been practically hidden in a residence abroad, or as happened the other day, a famous tenor uses some of his im mense earnings to purchase a Rem brandt and a Whistler, and for a moment people outsido of actual col lections and dealers are interested but millions of dollars change hands every season in New York, at public art auction sales alone, and the present year is bound to eclipse in magnitude all that have gone before. This busi ness of art sales is as well established here as that of coal and iron. The vast proportion of it is not in -iew works, but in old, and it is different therefore from any other business of large proportions. Its patrons have a double distinction. Art collectors must necessarily have surplus money and the spending of money in this way marks a man as having at least the desire for culture. One fact is notice able in art dealing in this country, and that is while it is growing in pro portions Americans are becoming more critical and learning in their tastes and are displaying their know ledge in their purchafies. Iiouck White, pastor of tho Church of Social Revolution, author and col lege graduate, has been indicted, to gether with eight of his followers, charged with destroying an American Hag. Drs.
