The wedding of Miss Annio Louise Har- rison of Mobile and MT. John B. Water man, which took place Wednesday even- ing at the home of the bride in that city. was of unusual social interest. The cere- mony. which was performed by the Rev. Dr. George B. Eager of Louisville, was witnessed by only the relatives and out of-town guests, among whom were Col. and Mrs, T. G. Bush, MT. and Mrs. Will liam D. Nesbit and Miss Williams of Bir- mingham.
 The house was magnificently decorated in palms and chrysanthemums. In the rear drawing room prie-dieu was erect ed and draped with a white embroidered shawl, one of those priceless and rare possessions in many of the old families of the south. White chrysanthemums were used in its decoration. and on either side of the prie-dieu the palms reached to the top of the ceiling. Chimes announced the approach of the bridal party, who were preceded by a quartette singing the Lo- hengrin chorus. They came down the long stairway and were immediately fol- lowed by the wedding party.
 The ceremony was followed by an fn- formal reception and supper was served. The bridal party were seated at a su- perbly appointed table, White chrysan- themums were used in the most elaborate arrangement and platters of gold and silver were used in the service. The cakes were ornamented with lilies of the val ley, white and pink sweet peas and orange blossoms, while all the bon-bons were similarly decorated. In one of the courses the bon-bons were served in mn- iature gold swans. suggestive of the Lo- hengrin theme.

RISKS HIS LIFE

TEAMSTER DISPLAYS RARE
HER0ISM
CALMLY CAUSES COLLISION
Jack ToIIe Drives Horses Into Ap-
preaching Street Car to Prevent
Injurlne Boy None Com
cerned Hurt

In an effort to save the life of an
unidentified boy at 7:45 o'clock last
night, Jack Tolle. driver for Maier &
zobelein's brewery whirled his rapidly
moving team to one side and drove at
full speed into fast approaching street
car.
The boy escaped unhurt and disap-
peared in the crowd before his name
could be learned. Tolle was on his way
to the barn and was approaching the
intersection of Third and Los Angeles
streets at rapid pace. Just before he
reached the corner a small boy with a
toy wagon ran into the street as fast as
his small legs could carry him. In the
twilight he did not see the big brewery
wagon until too late, and the child
seemed doomed, for on one side the
dashing team bore down upon him and
from the other rushed a University
Traction car.
Tolle took in the situation. and with
no thought but for the childs safety
he drove directly into the car. With
crash the tongue of the heavy wagon
tore through the iron dashboard of the
car. With such force did the car and
wagon come together that the tongue
was driven several feet into the car.
No one was on the front end of the
car. The motorman, seeing that col
lision was inevitable, reversed his mo-
tors and ran to the rear of the car.
The shock of the wagon and car collid-
ing split the team, one horse going on
each side of the car, both escaping
without a scratch.
Tolle stubbornly held to his seat and
lines and escaped unhurt Witnesses
declare the escape of all parties con-
cerned to be almost miraculous. as
Tolle appeared to be driving into q
death trap.

TWO AWFUL DEATHS
Motor Inspector Deliberately Seizes
Live Wire to Escape From Fall
ing Into a Metal Vat
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-Nels Anderson,
a motor inspector for the Illinois Steel
company, chose death by electrocution
in preference to more horrible fate
in one of the company's seething metal
pots today at the South Chicago works.
Anderson was doing repair work on
the arm of crane directly above one
of the hot metal pots. A slight move
ment of the arms caused him to lose
his balance. The only support within
reach was an uninsulated live wire
which connected the crane with power.
Anderson gave one glance at the white
hot metal below and caught the wire
as he was falling. He was almost in
stantly killed and the body hung over
the wire until the current could be
shut off.

Tourists in Los Angeles were treated

The shake, which occurred at 9:35

The shock was felt, according to re-

In Los Angeles it was at first believed
that the vibrations we've caused by an
explosion, but this theory was soon
disposed of.
The only damage reported as a result
of the quake occurred to the chimney
of the Saddlerock restaurant. The
slight vibrations were sufficient to
shake some of the SCOT from the fues
and this caught fire. t

BERLIN. Sept. 2.--Report is current
in diplomatic circles that the Swedish
Norwegian negotiations at Carlsbad
may lead to the appointment of Presi-
dent Roosevelt as arbitrator. There are
serious apprehensions that the dele
gates will disagree hopelessly on the
question of frontier Notifications.
While the majority of the Swedes re-
gard as an ultima tum the demand that
Norway demolish it's forts along the
frontier, the best informed people do
not doubt that Sweden's responsible
statesmen would propose arbitration as
a method of settlement rather than to
go to war.
King Christian of Denmark would be
undesirable as an umpire from the
Swedish point of view because Dan

Edward would be acceptable to both
countries, but President Roosevelt's re-
