Washington, ID. c., June 23.-(Special.)
Tom Settles man, JAS. +. Wray, was
to-day appointed postmaster at Reds
vile. He has been filling the position
here of assistant disbursing clerk of the
House.
Senator Pritchard was at the White
house this morning and made an ap-
pointment to see President Mckinley
later in the afternoon in the interest OF
Hon. III Gudger, who wants to serve
Uncle Sam in the foreign service. HI

evening was entirely satisfactory and
the Honorable Ki is correspondence

Department to-day that the President
will issue an order in few days exempt

famous. Some of the names were also
illuminated on parchment entitled 1.-The
roll of the famous" and included those OF
Mr.. Gladstone, the Marquis Of Salisbury,
Lord ROseberry, A. j. Balfour, the late
Lord Randolph Churchill, the Marquis
of Landsdowne, the Duke Of Wellington,
Lord Roberts, of Kandahar; the Earl OF
Aberdeen, Governor General Of Canada;
the Earl Of Durham and the Marquis of
Dufferin.
Her Majesty was presented with adj
dresses by the college authorities and by
the oppidans of Elton, to which she re-
piled in each case.
At the conclusion of the ceremony the
Queen asked for her grandson, Prince
Arthur of Connaught, who in his Elton
jacket and collar, walked to her car
rage and shook hands with the Queen.
The journey was then continued.
The Queens next court was at Windsor
bridge, where fine arch OF the period
of Edward LII. had been erected. There
Her Majesty received an address from
the Thames conservancy.
The final episode of the progress was
at the castle gates, where the addresses
from the Windsor bodies were received.
AS the Queens carriage appeared at the
entrance to her home the national an
them was chanted in welcome by three
hundred voices. The days festivities
were brought to an end by an illumina-
ton of the palace.
In the city the night was made notable
by a gala performance at the opera in
COyent Garden, which was royalty deco
rated. The ten central boxes were torn
down to make room for the royal box
which was really a magnificent salon dec
grated with tapestries and powered in
roses. A special stair case was erected
and an entrance cut for the Prince of
Wales and his party.
Great crowds are viewing the illumi-
ma tons this evening, crowds much great
er than those of Tuesday night. The
professional route, and the side streets
are packed with every conceivable sort
of vehicle, from costers, cart and trum-
brill to handsomely appointed coaches,
private open carriages and 0mnibuses
especially chartered for the occasion, car
rying ladies and gentlemen in full eve
ming dress.
AT the west end Of the route from the
strand to st. James street is packed to
suffocation. The heat is intense; many
women have tainted and the ambulances
are kept busy.
Trafalgar square is the centre of an
immense throng, and the police have
hard work to keep the people moving.
The route along which most of the royal
family drove to and from Covent Garden
Opera House was kept clear, but the
sidewalks were crammed by the populace
who cheered the royal carriages vocifer-
ously.

A PRETTY HOME WEDDING
Mr.. W. A. Lineham and Miss Marie
Besson Married Yesterday.

The home of Mrs. e. Besson, on West
Edenton street, was the scene of very
pretty wedding at 1890 o'clock yesterday
morning, when her daughter, Miss Marie
Besson, became the bride of Mr.. William
A. Linehan.
The parlors and halls were picturesque
ly decorated with palms, ferns and cut
flowers. The cermony was performed by
the Rev. DR.. M. NJ. Marshall, the bridal
party standing under tall palms and
white oleanders. The bride entered upon
the arm of her brother, Mr.. Edward Bes-
son, of Columbia, s. c., who gave her
away. She was attired in handsome
dress OF white organdie and wore a bril-
liant diamond and pearl brooch, the gift
of the groom. She carried large bou-
Duet of brides roses. The groom wore
the conventional suit for a home we'd
ding.
An informal reception was held after
the ceremony and refreshments were
served in the dining room, which was
decorated with palms, ferns, pink roses
and lighted by candle in silver Candida
bra.
Mr.. and Mrs. Linehan left on the II :45
Seaboard train to spend their honeymoon
in the Northern cities and Canada.
The bride is pretty brunette, and one
of Raleigh's most accomplished young
women. Her many graces and excellent
qualities have won for her many warm
friends whose best wishes will go with
her.
Mr.. Enehan is we'll known throughout
tho fCatp as ONE of ITS most successful
and enterprising young business men.
He is member of the firm of Cross &
Linehan, clothiers, of this city. He is
very popular and highly esteemed by all
who know him.
The presents were numerous and very
beautiful.
