There was q little, romance in the

Smell was married to Minnie Gilbert

Clergyman here, and the ceremony was

Congregationalist, and president OF

DR.. Smell said Wednesday night that
he was not prepared to talk about his
religious attitude just now, but would
define his position later in a public adj
dress. Being asked il he was inclined
toward theosophy in thought, Mr.. Smell
