DIR. Rylance is acquainted with the Hoe

second marriage. Mr.. Slade is son of

chants club.
A curious coincidence that the reporters
ran across in looking for particulars of the
marriage lay in the street numbers of resi-
dences of the persons concerned. The
number II runs through them oddly. For
instance Robert Hoe, IL East Thirty sixth
street, Henry Lewis Slade II West Tenth
street, Ernest Carter, II West Thirty
fourth street, J. H. Rylance, IL Living.
