WEDDING
At ST, CLEMENTS
THE DAUGHTER OF MAJOR AND
MRS. EDWARD DAVIS UNITED
TO H. Nick. HARRISON.

The wedding at St Clements church
last evening was a very pretty one.
The bride was Miss Susan Speed Davis,
daughter of Major and Mrs. Edward
Davis. The groom was Hoste Mex.
Harrison, of l. II. Davies and Co. The
church was prettily decorated with
pepper tree branches and orchids. The
choir was vested entirely in white, and
advanced from the chancel to the door
singing, to meet the bride as she en-
tered the church, proceeding back with
her to the wedding march from Lohen-
grin. She wore a gown of white satin
en- traine, and the usual veil. She was
met at the chancel rail by the groom.
Both bride and groom were unattended
The bride was given away by her
mother, her father being absent in
military service in the Philippines. Fol-
lowing the ceremony the bridal party
retired through the side door to the
vestry, where the marriage register
was signed. Then returning to the
church the newly married couple led
the company of guests out to the
strains of the Mendelssohn wedding
march. Following the wedding in the
church there was a reception at the
Rectory. Among the guests were Gov
ernor and Mrs. Carter, and Bishop and
Mrs. Restarick.

FR|ARS WILL
LEAVE: ISLANDS
OF LAND QUESTION
WILL CAUSE MANY TO ADAM
DON PLACES IN PHILIPPINES.

ROME, December 19-The settle
ment of the friar lands question in
the Philippines also practically set
ties, it is considered here, the ques-
ton of the friars themselves. The
Franciscans, it is believed, will aban-
don the lands altoether since they
have no money to purchase lands
and have no other means of support.
A few of the Recollects will remain
as they have still some property there.
The Dominicans will be looked after
by their university, and the Angus
tinians will reoccupy the building
erected at Iloilo which is now used
by the Americans as a barracks, and
will claim an indemnity from the
Government. The Augustinians will
use the building as a school.
1t is believed that the number IF
friars remaining in the Philippines
with the consent of the new American
bishops will not exceed $50, but none
will be sent to the archipelago, owing
to the lack of funds. Under the old
regime Spain paid for the transport
tation of friars to the Philippines.

There must be some mistake in

IT seems to me much more likely that

There is an idea over IN Germany that
most of the battles Of the future win

reason the question Of spectacles is not
