Ten pupils of tier Sunday school clan "gave away" Miss Mabelle Lillian Stone a few rights ago at her man-lace to Walter W. McLeod In the First United Pres byterian church. Miss Stone, who lived at 4129 Oladys avenue, has no relatives in Chicago and for a Ions' time was per splexed to find a substitute for famtly." It was finally decided that the members of the class she ha taught for many years should act In that role. The members of the congregation attended the wedding, which was fol lowed by a reception In the chapel of the church. The Ret. James E Walker read the service.

(Written for the United Press.) NEW YORK. Dec. 11 "The vear of the Great Upset" Is the epitaph upon the ahlctlc year of 1114. Base ball, pugilism, golf, rowing, polo and tennis furnished new candidates for the public favor and the downfall of chamrlons who were supposed to be entrenched In their positions, foot ball presented many surprises, al though. Harvard was able to repeat In the premier place. With the Braves' great dash for the National League championship and the even more thrilling grabbing of the world's championship In four straight games the world Is reason ably familiar. To analyse that dou ble feat walloping the haughty Ql ants and the peerless Athletics twice in the same year is something which would bo Tain and profitless. Manager Stalling tried vainly to ex plain In his vaudeville engagement how his cohorts won. Perhaps the only explanation that can be made Is that Stalllngs inspired his men to have confidence In themselves and the whole matter may be summed up in that little Incident when he cancelled the Braves' hotel reserve tlons at Philadelphia after the first two games and said that his team would not return to the city for his team would win the next two games at Boston, making a return trip un necessary. in football Harvard won again largely through the splendid coaching of Percy Haughton and such excel lent players as Mahan Bradlee, Hard wick. Fennock and Logan. Whether it was Haughton or whether it was the material at his command which brought Impressive triumph will al ways be a mooted question. The ef feet of Brlckley's absence must be considered In such a debate. Yale un der the tutelage of Hlnkey was a fac tor until the crushing defeat In the Bowl. Princeton with wonderful ma terial was a disappointment The sur prise, however, came in the excellent showing made by Cornell and the army and the still more remarkable games played by Washington and Jef ferson, Pittsburg, Williams and Rutgers. Two new boxing champions came to the front in Kid Williams of Bal timore, bantamweight, and Freddie ttelsh of England, lightweight Wil liams knocked out Johnny Coulon in the third round at Los Angeles on June 9 and Welsh grabbed hjs claim to fame by outpointing Willie Ritchie In London on July 7. For those fans who crowd the fight clubs expecting to see a championship change hands. It may be well to point out that neith er of these two fights was worth a lead Quarter or a shilling to see. The remaining divisions of the pugilistic world have the same champions as they had a year ago. Johnny Kli- ane is still featherweight champion, Jack Johnson Is heavyweight leader and the others, with the above execp- ions, are In doubt. The most inter esting bid for leadership Is In the middleweight class where four excel lent fighters are neck and neck for the honors: Mike Gibbon. McGoor- ty, Clabby and Dilllon. Boston claims Its third champion In Golfer Ouimet who trimmed the veteran Jerry Travers after he hlm- self had been beaten by Walter Ha gen, a professional, for the open championship. Just what the dis tinctlon Is between amateur and pro fessional golf would be difficult to state but If a golfer may have ama teur status young Ouimet Is without doubt the leader of that class. Maurice McLoughlln, for the third consecutive year, takes first rank as the best of American tennis players. Some question arose as to whether or not a time honored precedent should be set aside In order to give McLoughlln front rank, inasmuch as he had been defeated by Richard Nor rls Williams 2d in the final round of the national championship tourna ment. But precedent never stood a ghost of a chance with good old com mon sense and the ranking commit tee put the red-haired Callfornlan In the Dremler oositlon. Williams was placed second and Karl Behr third. Columbia won the Poughkeepsle re gatta, defeating the Cornell crew to everyone's surprise. Harvard's see' end eight went to England and de f'-ated the best that England could send against them for the grand fhiillenge cup at Hendley. Yale beat Harvard by a foot at New London which was a distinct blow at the grandoiddope. And lant of all, small type, Amerl ca's Big Four polo team was bump ed out of the top position by the Eng linn quartet at Meadowbrook.

WASHINGTON. Dec. II. One tne busiest legislative years In the history of American congressmen end ed today with the recess of congress over hew Year's Day. Except for a six weeks' adjournment, the nation al legislators were in continuous scs slon from January 11, 1914. until to day. This statement would not be fair. If allowed to stand, however, without the further comment that prior to January 1J, congress had been In session continuously since the incoming of the Wilson administration March 4, 1911. Perhaps the most Important piece of legislation enacted during the year was the law providing for the new banking and currency system. Cre ating from 8 to 1! regional reserve banks (later fixed at 12) under the direction of a federal reserve board, and providing for the reserves of all national, and many of what had pre vloualy been state banks, to be kept with the federal banks. Instead of with correspondent banks In central reserve cities, as previously, this was probably the most radical reform in the currency system of the country ever put into effect The provision for the discounting of commercial pa per by the member banks, and the Issuance of new currency to cover this discounting by the reserve banks, pro vided what was thought to be strong preventative of panics, and provided also a sure remedy against temporary stringencies in the amount of actual currency on hand, especial ly at such times as when the crops are moved. Another act of the year, that pro riding for the construction of a rail road in Alaska at a cost of $35,000, 000, and its operation after comple tlon by the government, was tremen duously important from two differ ent viewpoints. It provided for the cpenlng up for use by the people, of what President Wilson Is fond of call ing that storehouse of riches. Inci dentally, it is regarded by some as a long step toward government owner ship of all of the railroads. Certain' ly, as It la operated year by year. It will form at least the basis of a com parlson with the- privately owned railroads In the United States. One of the bitterest fights of the year was over the repeal of the tolls exemption clause for American owned coastwise ships passing through the Panama canal. The passage of this act means that every coastwise ship passing through the big ditch will have to pay its way, just as though It were an American ship In the for eign trade, or for that matter a for eign owned ship. Two Important measures of the so- called anti-trust program were enact ed during the year. One of these created the federal trade commission, which will exercise much the same sort of power over Industrial corpor ations as those exercised over the Interstate commerce commission, thus bringing both sorts of companies un der federal control. A number of important bills were passed by the house which were not enacted because of the rauure or me senate to pass them. These Include the immigration bill. Including tne famous literacy test, which would re strict immigration, and modify the rules rega'rdlng it to meet the opin ion of a number of authorities on Im migration. Two of the most Import ant of the conservatln bills, that pro viding for the leasing of water pow er sites now wlthhe'd from entry and the general dam bill, were also pass ed by the house but not by the sen ate during the year, while one bill t. T.n Follette seamen's bill, passed both houses (the senate prior to thla year, however) but In such dirrereni forms that no agreement was reach ed during the year between the two houses. Congress passed a resolution Juatl fvinr the oresldent's action In order ing an Invasion of Mexico at Vera Cms following the Insult to the Am erican flag at Tampico by soldiers directly responsible to Huerta at that time dictator of Mexico. Twenty six peace treaties, most or them the breathing spell variety, pro vlding for one year to Interpose after any overt act before any hostilities should occur, were ratified by the senate. The upper house also receiv ed more than 6000 nominations from the president and ratified most of iem. There were bitter fights over many f fhem Incidentally, especially. Paul Ti'ophiircr and Thomas D. Jones, for the federal reserve board, the first of whom was confirmed and the withdrawn: Attorney General rfT?vnniis to be Justice of the su preme court. John Skelton Williams to be comptroller of the currency. In a Commerce Commissioner Daniels, and nenry M. Pindell, to be ambassador to Russia. Some of the most important pieces of legislation of the year were those resulting from v. iTiii-nnenn war the war emer- i.' j " gency bills. One of these put the government Into the Insurance business, that pro viding that the government should write war risk Insurance when pri vate -corporations would not under write business at reasonable terms. This has proved a great boon to ship ping since the outbreak of the war. Congress made two distinct appro priations to bring stranded American cltlsuns home from war stricken Eu rope. Another emergency war measure was that sweeping aside the tariff du-1 hitherto preventod the niacin of for elgn built ships under the American flag. The same measure also lodged w ith the president discretion to waive the restrictions regarding all the of ficers of such ships being American cltlxens, thus laying the foundation during the war for an American mer chant marine, which would carry Am erlcan products abroad regardless of tho war conditions. Congress also so amended the Aid rich Vreeland emergency currency act, during the early days of the war, but before the federal reserve bank- as to make that workable, and It was availed of for the first time since Its passuRe, years before. The senate paused a cotton wurehoue bill, dur ing the early days of the war, pro viding for government inspection and supervision of the warehouses but this was lost In the house. A tremen dous fight to have the government buy cotton from the southern plant ers at 10 cents a pound was defeat ed and the Mil voted down. Another result of the war, and for Its cutting down of Imports from for elgn countries, with accompanying reduction In the tariff duties, was the war tax bill. This measure, provid ing for the raising of more than $90, 000,000 annually by Internal taxa tion, was put through both houses only after a most bitter fight, vir tually all the republicans voting against It. Supplementing the Alas ka railroad bill, passed early In the year, another measure, passed late tn the fall, provided for the leasing of government coal lands in that terri tory, and also for the government mining some of them Itself, another Instance of government ownership which pleased the socialists.
