He Continued Hts Surprises BY Having
the Ceremony Performed Ahead OF the
Expected Time.
Mrs. Mildred NJ. Hazen and Admiral
George Dewey were married at 10 o'clock
yesterday morning at the rectory Of st.
Paul's Roman Catholic church in Wash

burt.
The bride was accompanied by Mrs.

well, his aide. There were no other
guests, and after the ceremony the Admiral
and Mrs. Dewey entered carriage and
were driven to the residence of Mrs. Wash
ington Mclean, where a wedding break
fast was served. At the close of the cere-
mony Admiral Dewey grasped Father
Mackin's hand and said: Father, am
greatly pleased to have been married by
you, for | know that at one time in your
life you were sailor"
As Admiral Dewey is not a Catholic, a
special dispensation was required for the
performance Of the ceremony. The gen.
eral public had no intimation Of where
the ceremony was to take place and not a
| single spectator was present when the
party reached the church. Mrs. Hazen
and the Admiral Immediately took their
places in the centre Of the little reception
room, where the ceremony was performed,
with the ring, according to the nuptial
rites of the Catholic church. 1t consumed
| less than five minutes Father Mackin
was the first to hail the bride as Mrs
Dewey. Early in the afternoon Admiral
and Mrs Dewey left for New York. They
are now at the Waldorf Astoria, where
they will remain two or three days

Religion is not the fre-escape that you
build, in anticipation OF possible danger,
upon the outside of your dwelling and
leave there until danger comes. You go
to it some morning when fire breaks out
in your house, and the poor old thing that
you built up there, and thought you would
use some day, is so rusty and broken, and
the weather has so beaten upon it, and the
sun so turned its hinges, that ii will not
work. That is the condition of man who
has built himself what seems to be creed
of faith, trust in God in anticipation of
the day when danger is to overtake him,
and has said to himself, 81 am safe, for
will take refuge in it then" But religion
is the house in which We live, it is the
table at which we sit, 1t is the fire
side to which we draw near, the room that
arches its graceful and familiar presence
over us; it is the bed on which we lie aud
think of the past and anticipate the future
and gather our refreshment-P Phillips
