THE WARNE R-RlcHARDSON
WEDDING IN HUNTSVILLE

The Nashville American of yesterday
contained the following account of the
Warner Richardson wedding which took
place Tuesday evening:
From a social standpoint one of the
most brilliant weddings celebrated in
Nashville society for some time was that
of Miss Susie Richardson and Edwin
Warner. which took place last night at
Z o'clock at the home of the brides par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin R. Richardson,
on Belmont avenue
Although company of over two hun
dred was present, it included only the
relatives and near friends of the young
couple, owing to "a recent death In the
family of the bride, which changed all
the wedding arrangements except the
date.
Bishop Charles B. Galloway of Jack
son, Miss, performed the ceremony. The
bridal procession entered from the rear
door, led by the ribbon bearers and ush-
ers. Messrs John NJ. Gray, Jr.. and Alex
G. Hunter, Joseph Warner and Richard

them came the bridesmaids and grooms-
men in pairs as follows:
Misses Sadie and Mary Louise Warner,
Messrs. Mortimer, Richardson and Ersk-
inc Ramsey of Birmingham: Misses Eliz-
abeth Thomas and EstelIe Shook Messrs.
Culpepper Exum of Birmingham and Eu-
gene Bush of Mobile; Misses Sallie Rich
ardson and Jane Helm, of Louisville The
maid of honor, Miss Mary Richardson
the brides sister, entered alone fo..ow
ed by the groom with his best man, Pas
chal Shook. After them came the bride on
the arm of her father.
AN elaborate reception followed the
ceremony, and at an early hour the bride

IMPORTANCE OF HOME
FOR WORKING WOMEN

The movement looking to the building
If home for working girls and women
is one TO he endorsed universally. and it
should receive such encouragement as to
assure the promoters that they have
taken a step in the right direction. The
need for such home in Birmingham has
often been discussed by women who had
investigN ted the conditions that confront
the young woman who comes to the city
and who is frequently without protection
and dependent entirely upon her small
salary to defray all expenses.
After reaching the city her first thought
is to look for lodgings and she finds that
1t is not an easy matter to secure room
and board at small cost. If she is unac-
quainted with localities she realizes the
necessity of investigation, after which, In
some instances. she discovers is wholly
Objectionable. In respectable parts of the
city lodgings, even humble lodgings. can
not be secured at small cost and to the
woman whose salary is small and who is
forced to consider the problem of econo-
If she is woman of refinement she
naturally looks for as well-kept lodg-
ings as her small salary will afford, and
she soon finds that she has to pay high
for cleanliness as we'll as comfort.
The question of home for the great
number of women who are employed in
various capacities was brought to the
attention Of the Womans Club two or
three winters ago, at the time that it
arIx cd W
the Alabama Club. 1t was suggested that
the Woman's Club let the rooms on the
fourth floor as lodgings to working
women and that small cafe be opened
where a luncheon could be served at
small cost. 1t was thought that this
would be the stepping stone to greater
things. the foundation upon which would
be built a permanent home for the bust
ness woman who was from necessity liv-
ing in bare, uncomfortable and miserable
lodgings for which she had to pay dear.
Sometime ago several interviews with
prominent women appeared in this de-
partment pointing out the dire need of a
home for working women and urging that
something be done looking to such an in
stitution.
Several of the women employed in the
different business houses in Birmingham
were asked for their views, and in every
instance they strongly advocated the
movement and promised their support.
Any personal investigation of the sub
ject will undoubtedly show the need of
such an institution, and the Minister'S
Union cannot set forth too strongly the
Importance of Birmingham looking to the
maintaining of a home for the hundreds
of unprotected women and girls who
come to the city for employment.

London, January 15.-The appointment
of Whitelaw Reid as special ambassador
to represent the United States at the
coronation of King Edward has been re-
ceived with much satisfaction in official
and unofficial circles here.
The Globe says: 1.-The selection Is a very
happy one as Mr.. Reid has always been
persona grata in this country, and has
done all he could, and that has been a
great deal, to promote good relations be-
tween his country and our own. The name
of Mr.. Cleveland was originally suggested
but we are glad President Roosevelt did
not adopt the suggestion. We cannot
quite forget the Venezuela message to
Congress"

INDIANA SHAKEN
BY NITROGLYCERINE
FIFTEEN HUNDRED QUARTS 'oF
1T STORED IN A RAvlNE Elk
PLoDEs, AND NORTHEASTERN
PART OF STATE TREM1LEs.

Marion. Ind. January 15.-Fifteen hun
dyed quarts of nitro-g lycerine stored in
two magazines owned by the st. Mary's
Torpedo Company and the Empire Nitro
Glycerine Company in a ravine two
miles and a half southeast of this city ex-
ploded this morning about 80 o'clock,
Shaking the entire northeastern part of
the state.
Business blocks and dwelling houses
shook and swayed as if rocked by an
earthquake. and the entire city was
aroused.
A yawning hole in the bottom of the
ravine was all that was left to tell the
story. 1t is thought the explosion was
caused by gas jet, which set fire to the
buildings. So far as known no one was
injured in the explosion. The nearest
house was half a mile away, and the oc-
cupadts escaped serious injuries. Tele-
phone Inquiries received here indicate
that houses were shaken fifty miles
away
