WEBS DAUGHTER OF FORMER WIFE AND
BRIDE BECOMES HER OWN STEPMOTHER

A marriage ceremony which was per
formed in this city on Thursday even
ing is interesting from the fact that il
disturbs the relationships OF the con-
tracing parties in a somewhat unique
manner The parties who have en-
tered upon the UtOpian voyage of mat
rimOny are John Starring the florist
and Miss May McAdams. The latter
has until the marriage license was is
sued been known by the name of her
steDfather. who is now her husband.
When Mr.. Startling met his first wife
she had been widow several years.
Her daughter Nay was then child of
about eight summers. Two years ago
the mother died. and the attachment
between husband and wife seems to
have been transferred to the daughter,
who has grown into beautiful woman
hood. After the death of the mother

the daughter took care of the house
for her stepfather, who is a good look
ing man of perhaps 40.
Naturally much interest has been at
tracted to the marriage owing to the
somewhat tangling relationships tina
are brought about The bride is now
her own stepmOther. Her husband is
also her stepfather.
Mr.. Startling was seen yesterday at
his picturesque home at the corner OF
K and Fifth streets. in the northeast
ern part of the city He was disin-
clined to talk about the ceremony. He
said he did not want any publicity in
the matter.
We were both free to marry" he
said, and We are both old enough to
know our own minds"
The couple, who appear to be very
happy, have one of the prettiest homes
in that section of the city.

st. Petersburg. June 13-In official
circles here il is said that none OF
the powers is inclined to raise diff

Of the parliament in the matter Of an

the government follows:
-'The tragic events at Belgrade have
caused profound emotion in Russia
where there is the keenest interest in
everything affecting the destinies Of
the Servian people All the blood that
has been shed can only awaken in
Russia a feeling Of compassion which
in the present instance is increased
by the fact that the king and queen
Of a friendly state have fallen victims

fearful crisis, may be able to pursue
peacefully the course of her national
life in the direction which the patriot
