that the Beef Trust is a combination
in restraint of trade" and this is a
violation of law. If Congress shall re-

itself in sympathy with it, and the
party renresoniod nv the majority will
have to encounter the lust wrath of the
people.

BUOD-KlER MARRIAGE,
A Pittsburg Wedding of Interest to Many
Dclawareans.


The Pittsburg, Pa, Dispatch prints
the following account of wedding
which occurred in that city last Thurs
day evening:
One of the prettiest wedding cere-
monies ever solemnized in the AL
legheny Valley was that which last
evening united the fortunes of Miss
Georgia Trovillo Kier, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Harry Eichar Kior of West
Railroad avenue, Verona, and Harry
Garrison Budd, one Of the rising young
employees of the Carnegie Steel Co. of
Pittsburg, whose former home was in
Wilmington, Del. The st. Thomas
Protestant Episcopal Church in Oak
mont, where the ceremony was per-
formed, was made a bower of beauty
for the occasion. While no color was
followed absolutely, the prevailing one
was white. Exquisite clusters OF lilies,
white roses and carnations were ar
ranged with splendid taste. Back of
tho chancel rail on each side of the
altar and in front of the chancel rail
tropical plants were arranged in banks,
making a background for the white of
the flowers. Graceful wreaths of South
ern asparagus and smilax we're used in
the chandeliers and on the walls along
the sides of the auditorium. On the
window stills clusters of carnations and
white lilies were used. Tropical plants
were also used all along the sides of the
church.

THE POPE WILL SEND A MISSION.

Rome, Italy, April 8. J In spite of the
opposition of Cardinal Rampolla, the
Papal Secretary of State, the Pope has
decided to send important special mis-
sions both to the coronation of King
Edward and the festivities in Spain
attendant upon the enthroning of King
Alfonso.
The cardinal S opposition to the send
ing of the mission to England was
based on the fact that the British
Parliament did not change the anti
Catohlic formula of the accession oath,
and Mgr. Merry del Val, whom the
pontiff designed to be chief of the mis-
sion, openly refused to go while the
present wording of the oath is main
tanned.
Nevertheless, the mission will be sent,
and will probably arrive in London
few hours after the religious ceremony.

The Cause Of the Division.

The following gem of audacity is from
the Sussex Republican of Georgetown,
an Addicks Republican organ of slavish
servility to the cause of boss Addicks:
The editor of the Democrat seldom,
IL ever. tells deliberate fslsehood, but
when he states that the first division
in the Republican party was caused by
the Union Republicans he makes a
statement which calls for an explana-
ton.
No explanation at all. 1t is n matter
of history. In 1895, Boss Ad1icks, the
head and owner of the Union Republi-
can party-it was not formally organ
lied under that name for more than a
year later, but it was the same old
gang-held four Republican members
of the Legislature in his grasp and
compelled them TO vote for him for
United States Senator until the ad-
journment of the session. The fact that
he had but four members out Of 19-a
pitiful minority-made no difference
to him. 1t was "Addicks or nobody
then as now, so far as he was con.
cerned. As a result vacancy was
created and later was filled by Demo
crat.
That is what caused the division II
the Republican party, as honest Repub
Leans absolutely refused, and still re
fuse, to condone such base PREACHER!
