A cold, driving rain, which swept the city all day, cleared off at sunset and the evening was cool and pleasant. . (Wanna th weddinsr arrangements and the hour of the ceremony had been kept a elose secret, there were few on the streets about the White House, but near the bride's home the crowd was held back by the police lines spread during the afternoon. Everything was in readiness for the ceremony when the President arrived and it proceeded without music, Neither the President nor Mrs. Gait had any attendants and there were no ushers or flower girls. Neither the army, the navy nor the diplomatic corps was represented and the occasion was essentially wnat notn naa wisnea It to be a home wedding. 1 ; On the first floor of the bride's home, In two communicating rooms, a wedding bower had been arranged with a background of farbyanse and maiden hair form, which extended from the floor to the celling.

Af ter the bride promised to "love, cher ish and obey," the President placed the wedding ring, a plain band of gold, on her finger and then, after a prayer and while the couple clasped their right hands together, Dr. Smith de clared them husband and wife. The brief and simple ceremony was over. The entire party then turned to the dining room, where a buffet supper was served.

Portland The statement was made recently by a man closely associated with the canned milk business that he would not be surprised if there waa an advance of 60 cents a case in price in the near future. He based his opinion on the fact that the demand at the mo ment is exceeding the supply, and manufacturers are facing a hard game. It is said that 130,000 cases of canned milk have been shipped recent ly to France and that one Eastern manufacturer who puts out a brand of milk under his own name i in the market for 60,000 eases. It is pre sumed this is wanted to fill an export order. Up to the present time it is believed no fewer than 250,000 cases have gone abroad. All jobbers are now asking $3.10 lor Marigold milk. The advance of 15 cents was made some time ago, but was pot adhered to by the entire trade, for various reasons. Country Creameries Unite. Eugene, Ore. That the Eugene Farmers' creamery will unite with other co-operative creameries of the state to protect themselves and assist in marketing products of the plants was the sense of a meeting of the shareholders of the local plant. The meeting was similar to others held in different parts of the state where there are located co-operative cream eries. It is the outcome of discontent and charges that the butter market of Portland has been manipulated in some manner. . SchrocK, representative of the state dairy and food commis sioner's office, and G. F.' Frevert, of the United State, department of agri culture, were present 'at the meeting. It is the plan to hold a big meeting of the representatives of all the ' co-osr-ative creamery association ' tn the state in the near future. - Bearish Wheat Reported. Chicago Heavy profit-taking by longs who asserted that the govern ment crop report was likely to prove bearish, wiped out the greater part of a lively advance scored Thursday in the wheat market here. The close was heavy at a net gain of c to 11c with Decebmer at 1.16i and May at 11.17 1.17. The setback that ensued from the top level of the session waa most apparent in the May option, De cember contract remaining compara tively firm owing to fears that a strike in progress on the Chicago Beit railway might interfere with current deliveries. Wheat Goes to New York. Pendleton For the first time in the history of wheat raising in this county shipments are now being made directly from local warehouse to the New York Markets. H. W. Collin expect to ship out 3000 tons this week from his ware house to New York. There is not much left of the present local supply of wheat which will be acceptable in New York for the reason that the At lantic port calls for Al quality. There are no facilities for cleaning wheat on the Atlantic seaboard aa here. Sal of Cider Never So Large. Tacoma-rMore cider ha been sold this season than ever before, as far aa Tacoma is concerned, say merchants. Retail dealers are laying in big sup plies for Christmaa and New Yean and are anxious to know If there ia any chance of a scarcity should their supplies not be large enough. Com mission men' inform them that there will be plenty on hand. The varieties offered are Jones Brothers and Schulti Oregon ciders, laid to be equal to any made. Fresh ranch egg are now wholesaling at 4042 cant a dozen. TURKS IGNORANT Of WITHDRAWAL OF BRITISH FORCE FROM GALIIPOLI London Operations in other sectors of the front on the Gallipoli Peninsula than those from which troops were an nounced Tuesday to have been with drawn, are to be continued, it is inti mated in an official statement issued here. The withdrawal was effected without the knowledge of the move ment on the part of the Turks, it is declared. : " The British troops at the Suvla and Anzac districts of the Gallipoli Penin sula were officially reported to have been withdrawn. "Further details of the evacuation of the Anzac and Suvia zones have been received," says the official state ment ' "Without the Turk being aware of the movement a great army haa been withdrawn from one of the areas occupied on the Gallipoli Penin sula, although in the closest contact with the enemy. By this, contraction of the front at other points of the line will be more effectively carried out. QUEEN OF BULGARIA . f'- 1 ll.l'f The queen of Bulgaria, whose ability a a nurse has been manifested time and time again since she established In Sofia one of the finest and best equipped hospitals, haa again taken actively to the work which she lovea so dearly. She I devoting her time and attention to nursing the sick or phans In the orphanage of her country. "Sir Charles Monto gives great credit for this skilfully conducted transfer of forces to the generals commanding and the royal navy." The withdrawal of the British troop from Suvia Bay and the Anzac zone ends more successfully than most mili tary men thought possible, the most unfortunate chapter of the British arms in this war. Thousands of lives were sacrificed in gaining these posi tions, and thousands in holding them. The question has been constantly discussd why theBe generals command ing the Dardanelles expedition did not try to make a landing near the center of the peninsula in the beginning and cut off Turkish troops on the lower end. When the attempt waa finally made to secure a foothold higher up on the peninsula, the Turks were fully prepared to meet it. :. ' fenis Water Bill Will Be . : -li iv Rushed Through Congress Washington, D. C That the Ferris water power bill is to be railroaded through the house of representatives is indicated by the fact that the public lands committee of that body expects to report it favorably. The committee discussed the bill at some length Tuesday and decided to give no hearings whatsoever, but it was decided to make several minor changes which will not alter the gen eral character of the measure, and if these can be perfected at once the re port will then be ordered, and it is planned to call up the bill in the house as soon as congress reconvenes next month. The bill in its present shape is not at all satisfactory to Representatives Slnnott, Oregon; Smith, Idaho, and La Follette, Washington; but Chairman Ferris let it be known he haa enough Democratic vote to report the bill. Chinese to Rebel. San Francisco Tong King Chong, president of the Cbee Sung Tong, or Chinese Repuublic association, re ceived a cablegram from Shanghai, China, which stated that five Chinese provinces had declared their independ ence against the rule of Yuan Shi Kai. The provinces concerned in the revolu tion were, according to the cablegram, Kwang Tung, Kiangsi, Yuanan, Kwei- chau and Szchuen. Mr. Tong, who ha presided recently at several Chinese mass meetings, said he believed the action would be followed by many. Woman Attache Graves. Sacramento, Cal. The filing of an attachment on a lot in the city ceme tery owned by Harry Ditman Harms, a rancher residing near Union House, to force payment of alimony and di vorce cost prove almost anything can be attached. The attachment is posted at the direction of Mrs. Elizabeth Harms, the second wife of Harm, and it encumber all of the grave in the plot with the exception of the one oc cupied by Mrs. Mary Harm, the first wife. The amount of the alimony al leged to be due ia $225. Huge Taxes In Prospect. Berlin, via London Dr. Karl Helf- ferich, secretary of the Imperial treas ury, announced in the Reichstag that the next budget cannot be balanced without additional income, . and that proposals for new taxation are now being drafted for submission to the Reichstag. The secretary declared that no matter how large a war in demnity waa received, the war would impose a colossal burden of taxation on the Germans. What He Told Tham.
