emnlzed last evening at the home of
the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. J..
w. Simpson, of Fifth street. The
Simpson home was beautifully decor

w. s. Hancock sang solo at the con-
clusion of which Miss Flora Mason
played Mendelsohn's Wedding March,

where Rev. w. e, Roe was waiting to
perform the ceremony. The bridal
party was composed of Miss Ethlyn

bride and groom. When the strains
of the march ceased the bride and
groom were standing in front of u
magnificent bank of palms and flow
ers where the short and simple cere-
mony was performed. The beauti-
full bride wore magnificent gown of
white chiffon over white Taffeta silk
with white satin trimmings while the
manly form of the groom showed to
its best advantage in black.
The bridesmaid wore magnificent
dress of white mousselline de soire
over pink taffetta silk. After con-
gratulations the guests were invited to
the dining room where an elegant
supper was served. The dining room
was decorated with festoons of smi
lax and brides roses and pink ribbons
were draped from the chandelier to
the corners of the room. The follow
ing persons were at the brides table:
Mr.. and Mrs. Donaldson, Misses
Ethlyn Grant Simpson, Jennie Bos-
worth, Jessie Wood, Fanny Coleman
and Messrs. DR.. A. P. Hyde, w, S.
Hancock, DR.. c. r. Sloan, Samuel

muslin and Laura Gurley in pink
chiffon over pink silk served at the
brides table. The other mattresses
were Misses Edith Mills, Florence Nc

NEW PRESIDENT TRUSTED.

Wall street took President Roosevelt
at his word and gave the stock mar
ket such strength as could have come
only from entire confidence that the
policy of the Mckinley administration
would be carried out, in its full spirit
of prudence, watchfulness for opportu-
mites to advance the interests of the
American people, and strict regard for
the financial stability and commercial
development of the nation. If there
had been any doubt that the President
meant what he said the stock market
would have opened with a very differ
ent feeling.
The confidence which was thus shown
by the financial center of the United
States was justified. Theodore Roose-
welt is man of his word. He makes
no promise which he does not intend
to keep and he has sufficient force of
character and ability to know how to
do whatever he desires, within the
power OF his ofIice. In something
more than the usual sense of the cur
rent phrase, what lie says goes. Oppo-
sition gets out Of the way, as a rule.
If It does not it is overcome.
Having begun his term with the ex.
press purpose of making the change
caused by murder as little felt as pos
sible by the people of the country, the
new President has a fair pathway of
prosperity and popularity open before
him. He will strive to make any de-
parture from the wise and righteous
way impossible.

CORPORATION ASSESSMENTS.
The Chicago School Teachers Fight with
the State Board of Equalization Up
In Court.


Springfield ILL.,, March 91.-The Chi
eago school-teachers fight with the
state board of equalization began
yesterday in the Sangamon circuit
court before Judge Thompson with
the presentation of the petition in the
name of the states attorney of Sanga-
mon county for writ of mandamus
TO compel the state board TO revise its
figures on the properties of the va
rious corporations which. the school
teachers allege, are not paying their
fair share of taxes. The first days
proceedings resulted in victory for
the school-teachers, in that Judge
Thompson overruled motion TO dis
miss the petition and ordered the trial
to proceed on the issue raised by the
school-teachers.
Attorney Greenacre, appearing for
the teachers, reviewed briefly the ale
cations Of the petition. In u word,
he charged that whereas the board of
equalization had assessed the proper
ties of these corporations at some
thing like $12,OOO,OOO, their real and
fair value was about ss3s, 100000. He
charged that the board had signally
failed to do its duty and urged that
the state officials be compelled by
mandamus to correct the evils OF
which the petitioners complained.
