' NEW YORK, May 22.-A dispatch from
, London (ays that the wedding of Miss
- Josephine Holman, formerly of Indian
apolis, who was once engaged to marry
' Signor Marconi, of wireless telegraphy
. fame, to Eugene Barose or Budapest,
-' Hungary, took place today at St. Mar-
; (aret's Chapel, Westminster, In the. pre-
smce pf a brilliant assemblage that in
cluded many prominent members of the
, American colony.
' The announcement a few weeks ago of
Mis Holman'a engagement to Mr. Bo-
' roes created something of a sensation, as
It same so soon after it had become
known that the troth between the young
. Indiana ' girl and Signor Marconi had
. keen broken. Mr. Boross is well known
tn this city, having paid several long
Visits here during the last few years. He
Is the only son of a wealthy business
man of Budapest, and has been a great
traveler. He Is about SIT' years of age.
handsome, . accomplished and a man, of
charming manners. On nis latest visit
to America he was the guest of E. R.
Merritt of this city, a cousin of Presl
dent Roosevelt '
- Mr. Boross courtship of Miss Holman
was not without its romantic features.
Their first meeting took place on board
one of the Atlantic liners last January
It was Just a few days before she sailed
that Miss Holman announced tne break'
- ing off of her engagement to Blgnor Mar
coni. No reason for her action was ever
given. She merely announced the fact
that the engagement was broken and
Blgnor Marconi, was squally uncommunl
catlve as to the cause ef their, disagree
ment. Intimate friends, however, formed
their own conjectures ss to the young
: woman's reasons for breaking with- the
famous Italian. They are inclined to
think that Signor Marconi was too much
absorbed with his inventions to give his
fiancee - the devotion which her nature
demanded, and that she resented his
seeming indifference. However thts may
be, they are certain that In Mr. Boross
she will find the most affectionate of
husbands. The young couple expect to
make their future homo in Budapest, but
tt is said that one of the promises ex
acted from Mr. Boross by his bride is
that he will bring her to the United
State every year.

RICHMOND, Va., May 22.-The Vlr-
. gtnla Constitutional Convention, which
reassembled today after a recess of six
weeks, is not expected to remain long
in session, as its work is practically
completed. It remains only to be decided
whether the new instrument shall be
submitted to the people or shall be pro
claimed as the fundamental law of the
State. It is probabie the latter course
Will be adopted, though in any event
Its adoption is assureu. The chief fea
ture Of the new constitution is the clause
relating to suffrage, the effect of which
will be to practically remove the negro
vote as a disturbing factor in politics.
. Another Important feature is the re
scinding of the article abolishing hold

Bulletin, "was sentenced ., to 10
years' imprisonment for the robbery
of a man named ' Mathies. The woman
took her sentence coolly. Her term of
Imprisonment will be hailed with delight
by the police, for the woman has been
a source of constant annoyance to them
for years. She has plenty of money and
all efforts to keep her in Jail' have failed
because of her ability to -furnish bonds
in almost sgiy amount demanded by the

Billy Mead Is Back..
Down Railroad Row the glad cry rang
that the general agent of the Omaha
had returned from-his trtp to New Tork
City. Once a year "Billy" Jars loose from
the attractions nf the .Willamette Valley
and seeks relief In the strenuous life ef
the great metropolis. There are times
when he seeks relief from Portland life,
which expresses Itself In various ways."
Sometimes "Billr"dlge up his annual pass
md hies himself to Puget Bound, where
the waves play ping-pong on the shore.
It is said that he, even took an us.x
pected tide, at arts-time In an elevator
that want clear through from start to
finish without any stopover privileges at
the intervening floors.
That was an experience that caused
"Billy" to gasp for breath. It was
reoord-breaklng run. His raven locks
turned ashy gray In 16 seconds. He never
rides in elevators now. Instead of that
he walks up.- Ever since the days that
the Jolly MtUe man was a member of the
Portland Common Council his aldermanle
proportions have developed to an alarm'
ing degree, and chasing himself up and
down stairs Is calculated to reduce the
same. The physical culture fad
"Billys" long suit.
Mr. Mead is a warm number when It
comes to "charity, sweet charity." He
will do the hot-foot in the great baseball
games as a special attraction when the
local railroad men play games for 'the
benefit of the Baby's Home or the resorts
for the childless old bachelors of the
Maed school.
"Billy" Mead did not do any slack-wire
performances in New York or Brooklyn.
He simply went to Gotham to see his
mother to whom he is ever a dutiful son.
If he should cut out his annual trip to
New 'York, or should fall to stop oil at
St. Paul and renew old associations there,
life would be a dreary waste.

The plans an! specifications for the new
hall of the Mississippi-Avenue Building
Association on Mississippi avenue have

pleted. which will probably be the latter
part of the week. It was the original in
tention of the association to call for
separate bids on each class of work, but
on the advice of C. E. Steelsmith, the
superintendent of construction, the
sedation has decided to call for bids on
the whole building, the successful bidder
doing any sub-letting of the contract he
may see fit.

Mrs, R. J. Burdette, who spent Tues

vice-president of the National Federa
tion of Women's Clubs, and on account
of this fact was called upon by a number
of the club women of this city.
She is described as one of the typical
workers in the many clubs of the coun
try. She Is imbued with the highest
Ideals in the work, and the best stand
ard of excellence In womanhood. She Is
one who entertains her guests In just
the manner beat suited to themselves,
and does it naturally.
Mrs. Burdette displayed great interest
in the club organizations of Portland, In
the personality of their officers and the
work they are doing.
Although here but for the day, Mrs.
Burdette paid a visit to Mrs. Antoinette
Strahan at her home. She had corre
sponded with Mrs. Strahan regarding
ciub work, and, hearing of her illness.

BIG TIE
At Sellvood by Citizen
Met Supporters.
Residents' of Sellwood gave a practical
demonstration of their Interest in the suc
cess of the Cltlsens' ticket at a meeting
held In Flremansl hall last night.
The night previous Judgf Caples spoke
In behalf of the machine ticket to an au
dience of 35 people but on this occasion
the hall was comfortably filled and as the
several speakers made telling points they
were vigorously applauded.
J. F. Klrchem presided and Master Leo
Shaplrer, an accomplished 'pianist, and
Frank D. Hennessy, whose songs are al
ways wellecelved, furnished the musical
part of the program, after which H. W.
Varket', one of the leading representatives
of organised labor, was introduced as the
first speaker.
Workingman Tales.
Mr. Parker stated he was not a candi
date for any office, just a plain working
man, but was very m&ch Interested In the
success of every candidate on the Cltl
sens' ticket. He said:
"I am a representative or organized la
bor and! from close observation It appears
to me the Citizens' ticket is a sure win
ner. The people of Portland have good
cause to congratulate themselves that so
many representative men have laid aside
party fealty in local affairs and joined
hands in an effort to give the people an
honest, non-partisan administration of af
fairs and it was a further source of con
gratulation that laboring men and busi
ness men were working shoulder to
shoulder in the Interest of Mirh ;i ticket."
He believed that the Clti.fii.-i ticket was
well worthy the support of every voter
and should be elected from Us candid tes
for State Senator down to Constable. The
candidates on the ticket representing the
laboring Interests were selected on the
recommendation of the various unions
and were men known for their integrity
and moral worth and If elected would be
found well worthy of the trust reposed in
them.
Inman Talks.
R. D. Inman made, a few pertinent re
marks, reminding those present that the
people of Portland were now on the eve
of an election of more than ordinary Im
portance to the voters, but In the county
and city and they were expected to ex
ercise their rights as citizens fairly and
honestly. The purpose of the Cltlsens'
ticket. Its sole purpose, was to secure
good government It was In nowise a po
litical movement, but for the best Inter
ests of all the people.
"It is time for you to think," he con
tinued "to think .seriously what It means
for so many Republicans to leave the
ranks of their party, to sacrifice them
selves politically for the best Interests of
the people. In all our meetings we have
been greeted by crowds of people who by
their earnest attention show in which di
rection their sympathies lies and this Is
the best evidence of what the result will
be. Don't take an Individual Interest in
one man, but vote the entire Citizens'
ticket. My opponent, Judge Williams, is
a highly respected citizen and it Is an
honor to be a candidate against him. We
have both lived among you for many
years and It is for you to decide between
us and I aril entirely willing to take my
chances.
Lane as a Sprinter.
Dr. Harry Lane, candidate for State
Senator, missed his car and had to walk
in, but put in an appearance shortly after
the meeting was opened and showed that
a print of a mile or two down the track
had only served to put him in better talk
ing trim than ever.- He said It appeared
that political affairs in Portland had
drifted about until a few people had suc
ceeded In manipulating them to suit them
selves, but not In the interest of the peo
ple. Two years ago a protest was made
egainst such proceeding ana as a result
a Citizens' Legislative ticket was elected
which gave to us a chance to receive for
Portland a charter Indorsed bvi the beo-
ple and alBo the initiative and referendum.
wo measures of the greatest Importance
to the voters. This year we have a Cltl
sens' ticket named by delegates represent
ing the people and the result, of no man's
slate or political machine. On the other
hand we have a so-called Republican tick
et repugnant even to many who feel it a
duty to support It. They are in the same
fix as a boy in Arkansas who had swal
lowed a cricket and though it made him
sick, he determined to keep It down just
to show what a strong stomach he had.
Dr. Lane said:
'The greatest enemy of the people tn
the State of Oregon today Is the Oregon-
lan. Its editor is Intolerant, sneers at and
buses all who are not of his way of
thinking and constantly creates prejudices
that militate against the, best Interests of
he state. Now it is showing-Its consist
ency by giving support to Jack Matthews
fter having denounoed the man for
years.
Candidate for Representative.
G. C. Moser, candidate for the Legisla
ture, made a stirring address that awoke
the enthusiasm of all present. Ha spoke
from the standpoint of a Republican, one
of those now scoffed at and ridiculed, and
not true to their party simply because
they will not allow themselves tq become
blind tools in the grasp of the Matthews-Scott-Carey
machine. These men give no
reason why the voters of Multnomah
County should not support the Cltlsens'
ticket. When the Oregonlan stated that
In the event of the Independent Republi
cans winning out in the primary election,
there would be an open Republican con
vention, the editor of that paper knew.
Jack Matthews knew that suca purpose
was farthest from their thoughts. They
won the primary by a slight majority of
all the votes cast, then they met in a so
called convention, forced their slate
through and called it a Republican ticket
From that day to this they have not put
but one of their candidates out to discuss
the merits of the campaign or to civ any
reason why their ticket should be sup
ported. WhyT .Because nearly every can

MARINE NOTES.
The barge Wahkiakum, belonging to
Hale A Kern, which was in tow of the
tug Samson, was swept ashore on North
Beach yesterday morning, and totally de
stroyed. The barge was valued at $26,000
and her cargo at $1600.
The German ship Carl completed her
lumber cargo yesterday. She was cleared
by the Pacific Export Lumber Company
for Tslngtau, and has on board 1107
piles. 146,393 feet of lumber and 41 cords
of slab wood. The Carl will leave down
today.
It la stated, although not authentically,
that the sailor boarding house men have
formed a combination, and that as a con
sequence rates will soon advance to 975
per man. Sailors are scarce in town at
present, and it Is difficult to secure a
number of them' at any price. One of
the ships In port now has been delayed
on account of not being able to secure
a crew readily.
The German ship Nomta cleared for
Queenstown or Falmouth for orders yes
terday, with 116,566 bushels of wheat, val
ued at $78,600. The vessel has not yet se
cured a full crew, and may be compelled
to remain in port a day or two.
There is quite a number of foreign
built craft on te) Pacific Coast, and thf
owners are securing Danish register for
them . in order to get them under the

that the Danish West Indies will be an
