the boundary question practically won al

UNIVERSAL SUPREME COURT.

At the Peace Conference an Arbitration
Scheme Will Be Advocated.
The United States and Great Brit
ian will stand together in the advocacy
of the adoption of scheme for the
settlement of international disputes by
arbitration which will be presented to
the disarmament conference at its
meeting in The Hague on the 10th of
the present month, says Washington
dispatch. The American delegates,
headed by Ambassador White, are
equipped with a fairly well digested
plan for the execution of this long
cherished object, while the British del
egates are prepared with plan which
is almost identical with the American
project.
The details cannot be procured for
publication in advance CT the presen,
tation of the projects TO the conference.
1t is known, however, that there are
essential differences between this last
plan and that embodied in the treaty
drawn by Secretary Olney and Sir
Julian Paunceforte, which failed of
action in the senate when submitted
for ratification. The differences are
rather in the methods provided for
securing an impartial adjudication than
in the principles of the former conven-
ton, and il is believed that on these
points the British and American prop
osition are not precisely similar.
Other points on which the delegates
have been instructed are correctly re-
ferred to in the cable dispatches this
morning, namely, the exemption from
seizure of individual property and the
eXtention of the Red Cross rules OF
war to like operations at sea.
But another point in the instruc-
tions, which is not mentioned in the
cable dispatches, is that relating to the
amelioration of the horrors of war, and
with this, too, the American delegates
are deeply concerned. 1t was because
of the presidents interest in this sub
ject that Captain Mahan and Captain
Crozier were included in the American
delegation, and the great changes in
modern weapons of war which have
followed the last attempt of inter-na-
tional conference to treat on this sub
ject have given the state department
encouragement to hope that something
in this direction can be accomplished
at the approaching conference.

CALDWELL---CRAlG.
Marriage of Two Popular Young People at
Clinton Last Wednesday.

Marriage of Two Popular Young People at
Clinton Last Wednesday.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
One of the most beautiful church
weddings that the people of Clinton
have ever witnessed, was the "Pique
Wedding" of Miss T. Craig, of Clin-
ton, to Mr.. Howard Caldwell, of Will
mington, N. c., at $50 o'clock, in the
First Presbyterian church of Clinton,
on Wednesday afternoon, May 10.
The church was beautifully and
tastefully decorated. In front of the
pulpit swung a green arch, in the Gen.
tre of which was suspended double
heart, covered with evergreens. Every
body and everything conspired to
make the occasion pleasant one. At
$50 o'clock Miss Annie Spencer sang
very appropriate and touching song,
entitled, II Promise You," immediate
ly after which, to a march played by
Miss Libbie Spencer, the brides maids
entered to the left of the pulpit and
passed down the aisle to the ante
room to join the groomsmen. As 5000
as the last bridesmaid had passed
through, the organ, played by Miss
Spencer, pealed forth the strains of
Meudelssohn's wedding march.
This announced the entrance of the
ushers-Messrs. CLANCY Little and
Jack Young-followed by the grooms-
men and bridesmaids, taking their
stand in the form of an incomplete cir
Gle and in the following order: Mr..
Isaac Copelan with Miss Mamie Rem
wick; Mr.. w. NJ. Kennedy, Jr., with
Miss jamie Vance; Mr.. o. o. Copelan
with Miss Nan McCaslan Mr.. I. S.
Caldwell with Miss Lana Copelan |;
Mr.. Ross Young with Miss Mollie Hun
ter; Mr.. Niels Craig with Miss Ruth
Simpson. Through the door, to the
left of the pulpit, entered Mr.. Cald-
we'll, on the arm of Mr.. J. L. Hunter,
best man, to receive his bride, who was
coming up another aisle on the arm of
Miss Annie Copelan, maid of honor,
the two being accompanied by Usher
Mr.. Duck Copelan. These filled out
the circle, in the centre of which stood
the Rev. w. P. Jacobs, D. D., and Rev.
w. NJ. Lewis. The former, assisted by
the latter, performed the ceremony.
Music again filled the church, and the
couples passed out through the oppo-
site aisle to the one they entered.
The bridemaids wore white pique
dresses with white leghorn hats, trim
med in pink roses, and each carried in
her hand bouquet of white and pink
roses. The bride wore beautiful
travelling suit trimmed in purple.
Mrs. Caldwell was one of the most
young ladies of Clinton, and
is loved and respected by all who know
her. The groom is Yorkville boy,
and the merits he has won bespeak his
own praise. The bride and groom left
Clinton shortly after the marriage for
Guthriesville, the home of the groom's
father. After spending few days in
Yorkville and vicinity, the young oou-
pie will 60 to Wilmington, in which
city Mr.. Caldwell is engaged in the Y.
NJ. c. A. service, acting in the capacity
of general secretary of the city work.
