STAMFORD, Conn, July 1S.-The we'd
ding of Miss Rose Pastor to John G. Phelps

ert Hunter, and John Sherman Hoyt. The
best man was kellogg Durland. one of the
youngest of the resident workers at the
university settlement In New York. The
bride wore a simple dress of white NOUS
seine de sole. Palms and daisies were used
In the church decorations.
After the ceremony a wedding breakfast

ROYAL ARCANUM RATES.
Michigan Representatives in Delegate
Convention at Detroit.

DETROIT, Mich, July 1S.-One hundred
delegates. representing practically all OF
the Royal Arcanum councils in Michigan
met here today in a convention called by
the local councils of the order to discuss
the recent increase in the rates OF the
Royal Arcanum- Two delegates from
Ohio lodges attended the convention ior
the purpose, 1t is said. of pledging the sup
port of the membership in that state to at
tempt to have the raise in rates recon-
sidered.
A delegate from Ontario was also present
az the meeting. Organization was effected
at the first session, and speeches were MADE
by delegates urging that action should be
taken toward resembling the raise, which.
they declared, would force the old men out
of the order. Discussion among the dele
gates before the convention opened seemed
to indicate a decided preponderance OF
opinion in favor of asking the supreme
council TO meet and reconsider the raise in
rates.
