Russia-in fact, at one time she was look
cd upon as almost certain of capturing the
then CZarowitz Nicholas for husband.
The crown prince is a slight, delicate,
studious young man, who begged off from
marrying until such course was no Ion
ger possible, The princess is tall, splen-
didly formed woman of quoenly presence.
The bridal dress was of heavy ivory
white satin, the skirt quite plain, with a
broad band of silver embroidery and
orange blossoms round the foot. Over this
fell court train nearly four meters long,
made of white brocade all embroidered
with large punches of marguerites and
surrounded with heavy ruohe ornament

The veil for this magnificent costume
was a present from Queen Margherita,
who had taken it from her famous colloc-
tion of lace. Her majesty is oonnoisseur
of ancient laces and possesses a collection
which includes a great number of the
very finest specimens of every known
kind, ancient and modern. The veil she
presented to her daughter-in-la is in
Venetian lace and is historical, having
belonged to Caterina Cornaro.

as much as he grieved over the apostacy
of Prince Boris of Bulgaria. while the
king is especially pleased at the manifesto
tions of popular qualification over the
marriage of the crown prince to tho fair
and stately Montenegran princess and sees
in it new proof of the union of the nation
with the House of Savoy. The civil and
religious ceremonies occurred on Satur-
day. The civil function was performed at
the Quirinal by Premier Rudini in his
capacity of crown notary.
King Humbert has given $40, 900 to the
poor of Rome and has ordered the minis.
ter of the household to give assistance to
the poor of Italy on a similar scale.
The religious rites were performed at
the Church of Santa Maria degli Angeli
(St Mary of the Angels), one of Queen
Margheritas favorite churches, on the Pi-
azza Tormini, the Church of the Sudario,
the property of the royal family, being
too small, while the Paolina chapel, in
the Quirinal, has remained closed since
1870 when 1t was placed under the inter
dict of the Vatican.
The wedding procession left the Quiri-
nal at 10 O. clock, passing through the Via
Nazionale, which was lined with troops
throughout
Inc cortege was preceded by a strong
escort of cuirassiers, and the royal car
riages were surrounded by outriders. The
carriages occupied by the king and queen
and the bride and bridegroom were each
drawn by three pairs of the finest horses
in the royal stables Behind them came
the royal guests, the diplomatic corps, the
members of the municipality etc, all in
full dress and accompanied by their fam
ilies
Military bands of music were stationed
at every convenient point, and the streets,
profusely decorated, were strewn with
flowers. Large ST o. of money have been
spent by the municipality for banners,
flags, drapery and illuminations, and the
latter were upon u more extensive scale
than ever before witnessed even in Rome.
The Church of Santa Maria degli An
geli was richly decorated for the occasion.
Only the invited guests were admitted,
and the marriage ceremony was perform
ed by Mgr. Amino, the Oldest of the court
chaplans.
After the ceremony the procession re-
turned to the Quirinal by the same route.
The wedding presents are both numer-
orus and superb, those of the czar and
czarina being alone valued at about
1000, 900 lire. The princess is great fa-

he was frequently III conflict on points ol
procedure, During the memorable fight
against the so called force bill Mr.. Crisp
was the leader of his party on the floor,
displaying remarkable self control, alert
ness, boldnoss and patience. In the COM
mittoe room-and Mr.. Crisp at one time
or another was a member of all the i'm
portant committees-he showed unweary-
ing industry and grasp of detail.
In the spring of 1856 Mr.. Crisp was
chosen speaker pro TEN during the absence
of Mr.. Carlisle, and while serving in that
capacity he made his first speech advo-
eating the free coinage of silver.
Mr.. Crisp had displayed such ability as
parliamentary tactician that he was Sc
lected by his party in the first session of
the tiftyllr congress to make the fight
against enforcing Speaker Reeds rules
The Republicans won in the end, but only
after somo Of tho most exciting scenes ev-
er witnessed in congress. When the Dem
ocrats secured a majority in the next con-
gross, MIR. Crisp was chosen speaker after
contest with Roger Q. Mills of Texas
Mr.. Crisp added to his reputation by the
fairness of his rulings and his uniform
courtesy, although he and Mr., Reed some.
times clashed as of old.
A the time of his death Mr.. Crisp was
q candidate for United States senator from
Georgia, and would undoubtedly have
been chosen to that honorable position.

piled. America" Yankee Doodle"
The Star Spangled Banner" followed

cd by Governor Endicott in 1923 and
gold witch spoon.

o. This club of some 300 members is
splendidly organized and drilled and when
on parade carries campaign umbrellas on
which portraits of Mckinley and Hobart
are conspicuous A reception committee

A Witness of the Escape.

Benjamin Kiely a gardener employed
at the Bloomingdalo asylum, is the only
person who has been found who witnessed
the escape. He was passing along MARITIME
avenue, which is back of the Jail and
within II feet of the building. When he
was within 200 feet Of the Jail, he saw "a
man jump to the ground from the win
dow and quickly disappear over the fence.
He saw the buggy and its occupant mo-
ment before He observed the driver and
thinks he could identify him if he saw
him again. He saw the man get into the
buggy, which was quickly driven off down
MARITIME avenue in the direction of the
railroad station. At this time he did not
realize the Importance of what he had seen
and did not inform the authorities of the
facts until after the escape had been dis.
covered by them.
Deputies John p. Breese and Frederick
NJ. Underhill started after the fugitive in
the direction of Mamaroneck, while Dep
uty John G. Verplanck and David Stan
field proceeded toward Mount Vernon
down the post road, which seems to be the
most likely route taken by Jacques.
Jacques was held under an indictment
for murder He was ono of the band of
four burglars who on Aug. 20 attempted
to break into the postoilce at Bedford Sta
tion. Postmaster Walker Adams was
aroused by tho burglars, and in company
with his son William set out to protect
his property In this attempt he was shot

making his escape. John jenkins, who
was known as the big man, and Jacques,
characterized as the little man, were both
shot through the lungs, and jenkins died

day or two later After Jacques recovered

JACQUESBREAKSJAIL
ONE OF THE CHARACTERS IN THE
BEDFORD TRAGEDY ESCAPES.

The Prisoner, Left Unguarded, Drops
From a Window the Bars of Which Had
Been Sawed and Is Driven Away by IA
Confederate.
NEW YORK. Oct. 2S.-Peter Jacques or
James, one of the trio shot by william
Adams at Bedford Station on Aug 20, on
the night on which Postmaster Walker
Adams was murdered, has made his escape
from the Jail at White Plains. On the
memorable occasion of tho murder of
Walker Adams two of the men concerned
in his death were fatally wounded by
young Adams dying few days later and
Jacques, at that time was supposed also
to have been mortally wounded He re-
covered sufficiently, however, to admit of
his removal to White Plains, and since he
has been confined in that portion of the
prison set aside for women on account of
his seeming weakness. On this account
also he was not very closely watched.
During 20 minutes absence of the keep
or Jacques made his escape. He had
sawed through the bars and made his way
to the ground, where a confederate, with
horse and buggy, was in waiting for
him.
A hurried investigation showed that
the cell door had been pried open by
means of bar, thus giving the prisoner
the liberty of the corridor. At the east
end of the corridor is a window about II
inches wide and 10 feet high. This win
dow was secured by three iron bars three
quarters of an inch in diameter. Two of
these bars were sawed through and forced
out. Directly in front of the window is an
electric arc light, which was burning
brightly at the time. The bar from which
it is suspended offered an easy step and
means of making the 10 foot drop from
the window to the ground below Once
outside the Jail only a 10 foot board fence
was between the prisoner and the street.
A recently constructed coal box and shed
furnished an excellent ladder, which
Jacques used, and in moment cleared
the fence and sprang into buggy that
was waiting for him.
