SEVENTH AND STARK and Mrs. Hiram George Wright post of the Women's Relief corps and Columbia lodge of the Rebeccas Joined hands Friday evening In celebrating the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Hiram M. Russ of 346 Hibbard street Montavilla One of the features of the evening was the oresen. tation of a purse filled with gold to the aged couple. Mrs. Kuss has been a member or the ost for over 20 years and both are af iliated with the Odd Fellows or its auxiliary. They were married In Pros cott. Wis., October 10, 1868, and six years later crossed the plains in the ' old-fashioned way. After living in va- j llous parts of Oregon they came to' Portland In 1877. Mr. Russ is a re- tired dentist, having lost his right hand two years ago by the explosion of a vulcanlzer. They have four living daughters, thirteen grandchildren andj two great-grandchildren, nearly all of whom were present at the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the wedding. GERMANS WANT TWO-CENT RATE ALSO BUT THE KAISER HESITATES Since the 2-cent postage rate went Into effect between the united States and Great Britain there has been a per ceptible increase in the number of let ters mailed in Portland for London and the other -European cities. Persons who have friends and relatives abroad seem to ba writing more often now that the rate la but 1 cents Instead of 5 cents as It waa for many years. Since the If-cent rate went into erreci with Great Britain October 1 there has been a demand and at the same time a movement among the German com mercial enterprises for a similar rate to this country. The United States offi cials are willing, it seems, but it is the German officials who hesitate. Their reasons are obvious. Germany's postal department is on a paying basis, and the empire Is hard pressed for funds. Consequently the administra tion hesitates to do anything which would lessen the revenue, whloh would be at least a temporary result of a re duced international poalage.
