people are wondering where the money

ly placed a $4,000 mortgage on his
home here.
Addicks was sued at Newport a few
weeks ago by a tradesman for bill
for table supplies.
Where in former campaigns Addicks
poured thousands into the republican
campaign treasury, he was not able
to assist at all in the recent campaign.
Addicks made his first appearance in
Dover during the legislative session of
1889. No one knew him. He intro
duced himself about, and said, laugh
ingly, that if no one else wanted to go
to the senate he would go. 1t was
proved that his design on the senate
was not serious, and that what he
really wanted was charter for the
now notorious Bay State Gas company.
1t was not until 1894 that Addicks be-
came openly active in politics, cor
raled votes, paid the delinquent poll
tax of republicans disfranchised for its
non-payment, and handed the state
over to the republicans at that cleo
ton, as he has done at all succeeding
elections until the last, when his bar
rel was empty, and a new financier
arose. For IA years he has fought TO
go to the senate, always to meet with
defeat, and to be continually charac-
terized as an alien, a carpet-bagger
and a political trickster. He was
born in Philadelphia and is GA years
old. He lives so close to the Penn
sylvania line that he can step from mis-
Claymont farm into that state.

MARCONI TAKES WIFE
INVENTOR OF WIRELESS TELEG-
RAPHY MARRIED.
Lady Beatrice o'Brien, of Royal Irish
Family, the Bride-Bridegroom
Once Engaged to an In
So. diana Girl. ....

London.-After having been report
ed engaged to score Of women in va
rious parts of the world, Guglielmo
Marconi, the inventor Of wireless
telegraphy, has at last been joined-in
the holy bonds of wedlock. Lady
Beatrice OBrien, daughter of Lady
Inchiquin, was the bride. -
One of the Chevalier Marconi's chief
worries in the past was the constant
variety of girls to whom the newspa-
pers engaged him to be married. Ex-
cepting the German crown prince and
the king of Spain, the genius of wire
less telegraphy probably was be-
trothed by rumor oftener than any
man living. Marconi was engaged to
Miss Josephine Holman, Of Indiana, at
one time, but the engagement was
broken because Of his alleged atten-.
tons to Lulu CHASER. Then it was re-
ported that he was engaged to Miss:
Nina McGillivray, but she said it was
only a summer Irritation. Dame Ru-
NOR next connected his name with
that of Princess Giarcinta Ruspoli. =.
Marconi met his future bride year
ago when staying at Lord Dunraven's
house, near Limerick. She is bright,
comely, but somewhat rustic looking
girl, fond Of outdoor sports, and is also:
well read. She can boast a royal pedi
gree, too. She is one of the eight Sis
ters-all good looking-of the fifteenth,
Baron Inchiquin, and can claim de-
scent from the famous Irish monarch
Baron Baroihome, who was king of
the Emerald isle from 1902 to 1014,
when he was slain at the head Of his
army at the battle of Clontarf. His
grandson, Turlogh, king of Munster,
had four sons, whereof the third was
the progenitor of the Barons 1nchi-
quin. One of Turlogh's descendants,
Conner O'Bryan, was king Of Thor
mond at so comparatively recent Pc
riod as 1929, and it was his brother,
who after usurping his
klngship surrendered to Henry V1II.,

10x12 to the elaborate and extensive

the outside walls. Sometimes plain
white muslin or duck is used, sometimes
the fancy striped awning goods, some.

We cannot but admire the work OF
the old locksmiths, who manipulated
at will brass, iron and steel, so as
to delineate the del1cate traceries and
fretwork of guipure and church win

boast not only of several masters Of
renown, notably that celebrated Ben

but also of a royal amateur, Louis
XVI. himself, renowned for his me-
chanical hobby, and who has left to
posterity several keys peculiar for

Rosslyn, L. I.-Even in this age of

it is doubtful whether any toy has
been constructed so unique and cost

Gently has had installed on his es-

Among fish it is positively known that
pike, salmon and goldfish never sleep

not be my own judge. leave it for you
to weigh. It is enough for me to live
rightly.
Don't be alarmed if you don't receive
any great, wonderful revelations your
self. Just live righteous life; that is
all that is needed. God has revealed
many things to me for my own guidance.
He will reveal Himself to you also if you
live the righteous life"
Continuing further in his defense, the
speaker said: 1.-THE devil is the de-
famer of character You never heard
of bad man going around and saying
that other men were good. No, that is
not the devils mission. His mission is
to pollute what is pure and make q
sacrilege with what is holy. The
Master, God, said that if they have
treated me in that manner so also will
they treat you. To my mind the strong
est evidence of our divine mission is the
fact that those who are evil disposed
are trying to blacken our character.
Don't forget that from time to time
aEti-Christ will come among you.
men who have corrupted and wasted
their own lives. God will deal with
them. Only we cannot live together
with them. We must disfellowship the
anti hrists, those who raise their
hands against God. Do we interfere
with their liberty Of speech when we
disfellow them? Not at all. No, we only
give them the more liberty.
GAS the prophets of the olden time
had one kind of revelations from God,
so do the prophets of to-day have an
other kind. Joseph Smith believed in
the living Word of God. Those who have
succeeded him have the same belief.
They themselves are prophets of the
most high God, great as any of the east
ern hemisphere. When President Jo-
seph F. Smith said that he did not have
revelations it was in reply to question
from men who would not understand the
meaning of the word revelation. They
were trying to lead him into a trap.
They meant the revelations such as
Moses had"
Further on in his speech the apostle
explained why the Mormons should la
Dor to build up a temporal kingdom,
saying that man is of both spirit and
flesh, and he should look after the well
fare of both Not only should he insure
his own comfort, but he should look out
for that of coming generations also.

lied before the senate committee on
privileges and elections when he de-
clared he had never received revela-

His excuse given for him previously
by Apostle Charles w. Penrose was
that they were trying to lead him into
trap" Both speakers declared the
senators Investigating Shoots capabil-
tiles to sit in the senate were not capable
of understanding what revelation
means as understood by the Mormons
and therefore President Smith had made
the denial Of receiving revelations as
the senators understood it.
''They wanted me to say had revela-

A century later the baronetcy de-

er of which saw it converted into a

There is certain appropriateness in
Marconi's choice of an Irish woman
for his wife, for his mother was OF
that nationality, although, as every
body knows, his father was an Italian,
and he was born in Italy.
Upwards of 500 presents were re-

costly collection of jewels, and un-

the affair.
