dear friends around me.
I simply went to New York to see Char
lie win the race, for, Of course, I knew
he would win. I stayed beside the race
track day and night, until 1 was almost
worn out with watching Charlie always
wears button with our heads photo
graphed on it. Well, 1 used to watch
that button spin round and round the
track until I was dizzy
1 really enjoyed it, though, for I was
so sure he would win, and / met so many
lovely, kind people, Then liked to hear
the crowd cheer him. 1t just made me
love all those people, not one of whom /
knew. to hear them sing his praises. All
the crack bicycle men were there and
became fast friends with them and their
wives.
1t was on Friday afternoon that the
management first spoke to me of marry
ing Charlie right there before the crowd.
The race was to end Saturday evening,
but he was already so far ahead that
there vas no doubt that he would win.
OF course thought It was a crazy idea.
Imagine any girl of Is being willing to
marry man before all those strangers
and in such a strange place as the track
of a six-day bicycle contest I thought
they must have all gone crazy.
But Charlie got off his wheel for q mo-
ment and I went down to talk to him.
Please, Genevieve, was all he said
He looked so haggard and SO anxious
that If he had asked me to climb the
mountains in the moon would have

r T is true that / married Charlie
Miller just before the finish of the
six-day bicycle race in New York
City last December. You have no
Il idea how many people ask me about
1t and seem to think that 1t was such
a wonderful thing for girl to do.
Well, don't think it was. Any girl
would do as much for the man she loved,
wouldn't she? So when. on the fifth day
Of the race. Charlie asked me whether
I would be willing to marry him on the
morrow before all those people, said
yes.
You see, the management knew that we
were engaged and they talked Charlie
into being married at the close of the race
for the advertisement of their show and
it jammed the place with curious people.
All the managers in the world couldn't
have persuaded me, though. But when
Charlie asked me l just said yes, tele-
graphed to my mother and went out to
buy my wedding gown.
When I went to New York to see Char
lie in the race l hadn't the slightest idea
that we would marry for months to come.

KINETOSCOPE::
Cake Walking Children
At the Orpheun.

THERE are two precocious young
sters dancing and singing and per-
sonating for the Orpheum audiences.
They are Carter de Haven and Bon
ME Maie. They are both Just II
years of age and so different that
one cannot say which is better. Bonnie
is a little personificator of grace in the
cake walk, perfect reproduction from a
Louisiana plantation. Behind all her
sweetness and genius Bonnie has a sad
little tale, one told only too often in city
life. Mrs. de Haven said the other day:
SCI found her playing In Chicago two
years ago. She had no one TO manage
her, but still the child picked up living
and had done so for three years. You
tell about 1t, Bonnie
"I used to be in an orphan asylum. My
father went away and my mother could
not take care OF me. My sister was an
actress, and she took me away when 1
was and taught me to dance and go on
the stage Then she married and didn't
want me no more.
"I got along though. I was not all the
time down on my luck Then Auntie de

the theater door and they didn't want
me any more and 1t was winter and

there was q knock one morning and there

neer, the crack cyclist.
We talked over the plans for getting
ready for such a quick wedding. 1t
seemed as if they had turned the six-day
bicycle contest into wedding-in-twelve-
hour contest.
1t was just little after when we
drove up. Mamma was with me, she
dashing in on the lightning express just
in time. Mrs. Schinneer was my brides
maid. and Arthur Gardiner, the champion
short-distance rider, was our best man.
The streets were crowded with people,
who were waiting to get a glimpse of US
when we got out of the carriage.
The manager met us at the door and
gave me the loveliest bridal bouquet that
any girl ever carried. Not even the
Duchess of Marlborough could have had
a prettier one.
All the racers had stopped long enough
to get washed and shaved. Charlie Joined
us at the door and then I wasn't a bit
nervous. I didn't see one of all those
thousands of people. / just knew that
Charlie was there and that we were going
to be married.
While I was dressing they had carpeted
the aisles and We walked into our box
to the most beautiful wedding march you
ever heard. All the people stood with
uncovered heads while the Alderman mar

rode my first six-day race at Chicago
in 1897 and came in second. My wife was
at that race but didn't even know her
by sight then. She says she fell in love
with my riding, not me. A man in a six
day race is not much to look at.
OF course this has been very profit
able business for me. There is a good
deal more in 1t than just the prize money
salary from the wheel you ride, etc. To
win a six-day race means about 5000 for
me.
7 haven't really lost pound in actual
weight from this last six-day race. My
face is a little drawn and haggard and

theater and stage and the dolls were the
audience.
when we travel we take two sections,
and one section is a playhouse for them.
They are on the road so much we make
the cars just like home,' said Mrs. de
Haven.
"And you like it?''
why. of course put in Carter; Did
YOU see my clothes? They are all made
by the Prince Of Wales tailor, see-'
He opened a bureau drawer and showed
me a neat pile of satin vests and ties and
a black satin suit, all as orderly as any
old bachelors.
"Bonnie, here are your blue slippers.
Now how do you expect to keep anything
nice? Bonnie is so careless about her
things. She doesn't care a straw" Bon
ME snatched up the offending slippers
laughing and brushed them.

ried U.S.
1t was just as solemn and sweet and
sacred to me as though we had been mar
ried in church. And the II will' meant
just as much to US and I am sure all
those people wished us happiness as sin
cerely as our dear friends at home.
When 1t was over every cycler there
wanted to kiss the bride. The six-day
racers had their turn first, because the
time they had agreed to lay off was al
most over and they were in a rush to
get back to their wheels on the track. 1
don't suppose there was ever another
bride on this earth before who was kissed
by all the champion wheelmen in the
world.
The minute the kissing was over Char
lie and the rest of them rushed back to
their wheels and began spinning around
the track again.
we stayed g. few minutes and every
beam and rafter in the place shook with
the cheers and congratulate of the
crowd Then we drove off to a wedding
dinner, for 1t was after O'Clock.
Just imagine a wedding banquet with
out the groomi There I was, responding to
their toasts, while Charlie was riding
round and round the track, winning glory
and the first prize.
But it had all been so novel and strange
that / was getting used to the unusual
After dinner we went back to the race,
And when it was over it was not Gene
We've Hanson who kissed the victor but
Geneyfeve Miller. Then we all went to
second and happier wedding banquet, for
the groom was there.
People begged me for a leaf or flower
from the bridal bouquet, for they wanted
a token of the wedding. Every one said
it was the most unique marriage that ever
happened.
Well, perhaps it was. but it made two
people just as happy as they can be and
that's Charlie and me. El =.
