ALBAUGH's.- -Salvini is OthelLo, at least he was
last night at Abaugh's. Tomorrow night he
may be Samson, but last night Salvini and the
dusky Moor were SO merged into one personality
that 1t was almost all Inposslbllity to tell where
one began or the other ended. Salvini's OtoeLo
is the very embodiment of strength and
grandeur. The agony displayed merely by the
face in the scenes in which OtteLlo's jealousy
is prominent is in itself an entire study The
support is excellent, Mr.. Malone making an
acceptable IdgO, although much of the depth OF
malice making up the character of logo is mis-
sing.

The Adams-Howard weddi,y

Miss Grace Ii. Adams, the eldest daughter OF
the late Mr.. Geo. W. Adams, and Mr.. Beale r.
Howard of Hartford county, Nd, were married
last evening at the residence of the bride, l4lO
10th street. Owing to the recent death Of the
brides mother the wedding was very quiet,
and the only invited guests were the family
connections on both sides and few intimate
friends. Ii was, however, an interested and
happy group OF well-wishers who witnessed the
nuptlals OF the young couple and afterward
extended their earnest congratulations. There
were no floral decorations in the artistic suite
OF parlors. None were needed, as the softly
shaded lights brought out all the beauties Of
the elegantly furnished rooms. The bride,
who is a graceful, fair-haired young girl, and
was to have made her formal entree into So
ciety this winter, looked unusually attractive
In her bridal robes Her gown was of heavy
white corded silk. The train was long and
the front of the skirt was draped with
crepe lisse caught with orange blossoms
The bodice was cut away slightly az the
throat and prettily trimmed with garland Of
the blossoms and crepe lisse. chaplet Of
orange blossoms held the tulle veil to her hair
She came down stairs on the arm Of her uncle,
MI. John Barclay, of this city, who gave her
hand in marriage. Rev. George K. Warner,
rector OF st. James p. E. church, Baltimore
county, Nd, which the groom and his family
attend, performed the marriage ceremony.
After receiving the congratulations Of the COM
pany a supper was enjoyed, and the bride cut
the towering wedding cake. Later in the even
ming she changed her white dress for . travel
ing dress of black cloth, and Mr.. Howard took
his pretty and youthful wife of for their we'd
ding tour, which is TO be spent in the romantic
region of Asheville, n. G. They will be back
TO join their home friends in their Christmas
cheer. The wedding presents received by
Mrs Howard were exceptionally elegant and

SHE DIDN'T LIKE DISPLAY.
A SeXta- Millionaire is Divorced from
His Wife.

New Haven has large scandal to talk over in
the Waddngham divorce case Wilson Wad-
bingham, one Of the wealthiest and est-known
men in the west, was legally separated from his
wife Emma. on complaint of the latter, in the
circuit court of Chicago ON last Saturday. MIR.
Waddingham is reputed to be worth $4,000, 900.
His rapid accumulation of this wealth and the
disposition he showed to spend it royalty was
the cause of the trouble between him and his
wife.
Waddingham made his fortune in the Black
Hills and in cattle in Colorado. He went to
West Haven ten years ago and bought large
tract of land and builta palace costing S7OO, OOO
When it was all ready he turned it over to his
wife. This seemed wilful extravaganza to Mrs.
Waddingham and she was far from being happy
in the midst Of SO much splendor. She wanted
her husband to live more plainly. This differ
ence OF opinion between them resulted in an
infringement about six years ago. Mr.. Wad-
bingham went to Chicago and began living at
the Palmer house, while his family continued
to live in the mansion at West Haven. The
couple have never lived together since. He is
reputed to have sold the property to Major j.
G. Barrow last May. When Major Barrow
moved into the mansion with his wife and
daughter Mrs. Waddingham moved out and
went to the Adirondacks for the summer Wad-
bingham was in West Haven this week and was
seen walking the streets with Miss Barrow. a re-
markedly handsome woman of thirty years. He
is said to be In Washington now, but his move
ments are 80 uncertain that it is doubtful il he
has left New Haven yet. The divorce has
created no end Of comment in New York. where
Mrs. Waddingham is well known and respected.
