Rehearsal In East Room.

Late in the day the wedding was re- hearsed in the east room. None but the wedding party was present. The Presi- dent was engaged at the time in confer ence with Secretary Bonaparte and Admi- ral Sands at the executive offices and was not at the rehearsal, nor was Bishop Henry Y. Satterlee, who will officiate to- morrow. MT. Longworth accompanied by his best man and the ushers walked from MT. Longworth's home to the White House, where they joined Miss Roosevelt and the other members of the wedding party. A large section of the United States marine band was in attendance, playing the music for the rehearsal. Throughout the day express wagons and private messengers were continually ar irving at the White House, with wedding gifts. Presents have been pouring in constantly for some time, from all sec tions of the country and from almost every quarter of the globe. For two days the presents have been on exhibition to immediate personal friends of the bride and groom. who have come to attend the wedding.

Plenty of Room for Guests.

It is estimated that there will be about $50 guests present and 1t is possible that some of the number may have to be placed in the green room, although 1t IS believed by those acquainted with the capacity of the house that the east room will be sufficiently large to hold all the guests. After the ceremony and the re- ception of the guests by the bride and groom has been concluded. buffet we'd ding breakfast will be served In the state dining room.
 The White House grounds will be closed throughout tomorrow and none except those who have been invited will be permitted to enter The executive offices will also be closed throughout the day. and all work will be suspended
 Maj Richard Sylvester, superintendent of the Metropolitan police department has perfected arrangements for keeping the streets adjoining the White House open so that carriages will be permitted free access to the gates and congestion prevented.
 Photographers and special newspaper writers have been arriving in Washington from all over the country, some coming from European countries. However, only a limited number of newspaper men have been invited and these are either person. ally known to the family or are personal friends.

Judae Thompson as a Witness.

A few years ago. in a murder case
being tried at Pennington, Me-, the
Hon. c. N. Blanchard of Wilton, now
a member of Gov. Cobb's council, was
conducting the case of the accused,
for whom he was trying, with doubt
full success, to make out a case of in
sanity.
1t appeared during the trial that the
prisoner had been in many quarreis.
and had been brought many times be-
fore the courts to answer to the law
for his conduct. At one of these trials
| ex-Judge Richard Thompson, formerly
| of Boston, but TO- a retired farmer
in the town of Jay, Me-, presided as
| trial Justice.
Thompson was a witness at the muir
| der trial above alluded to, and was
being questioned by Mr.. Blanchard.
The attorney, true to his purpose of
establishing the insanity of his client,
queried the ex-judge as follows:
Judge Thompson, did you notice any
| evidences of mental weakness or pc.
culiarities in the defendant at this
trial?"
"Y-e-s!" drawled the ex-judge, he
employed you for counsel"

WAY OF CLEANING LEATHER.
Should Be Washed With Hot Milk and
Rubbed With Wax.

The following directions are said to
be very good for cleaning and polish.
ing leather: Dip a soft wooden cloth
In boiling hot milk and wipe the
leather with this, rubbing gently un.
til all the dirt is removed. Then wipe
dry with a soft flannel. When the
leather is clean go ove the surface
with a piece of flannel on which is
spread a tiny piece of prepared wax
The a should be spread over the
cloth as thlnly as possible. After the
waxing go over the leather with a
clean soft flannel, rubbing briskly, but
not too hard.
A recipe for this wax is as follows:
Put two ounces of beeswax cut in
small bits into a bowl. Place the
bowl in a pan of hot water on the back
of the range. When the wax is quite
soft beat into 1t after taking it of
the stove a quarter of a cupful of tur-
pentine and half a ~teaspoonful of par,
ATTN oil. 1t is ready for immediate
use. If before you are ready to use
it the wax should get cold set it in a
pan of hot water for a few moments.
This is suitable for leather that is
used as a furniture covering.-New

CLOSING OF
ITS YEAR
LARAMIE WoMAN'S CLUB ENDS
BUSY TWELVE-MoNTH WITH
BRILLIANT RECEPTION.
Miss Kerr Of Denver Delivers Address
and New President, Mrs. Erickson,
Indicted Into Office-light Re-
freshments charminsly Served by
the Hostess.

The Woman's club closed its year
with a largely attended reception,
which was held yesterday afternoon at
the residence of the retiring president,
Mrs. f. ID. Spafford. AT the close of a
social hour, during which all present
had the pleasure of meeting Miss Kerr
of Denver, who was the honor guest Of
the occasion, the literary portion Of
the event was in order. During this
program vocal solos were charmingly
rendered by Mrs. Latimer, Miss Mer-
rlam and Miss Burke, and Miss Konold
delighted the gathering with an in
strumental selection.
An Entertaining Speaker.
Miss Kerr spoke both probably and
~entertainingly for thirty minutes OF
more, her address outlining the meth
DDS and plans of the Denver Woman's
club and wildly depicting instances
where Denver workers have achieved
marked success and also which they
mark as failures, but whose lessons
were scarcely less valuable. Miss Kerr
is an easy and graceful speaker, and
her talk was thoroughly appreciated
while she won many friends by hei
charming personality.
Women of West Are Alert.
While Miss Kerr is not ready to &C
on record as being a radical advocate
of woman's suffrage, she does declare
that the women of the west are more
alert and better informed in genera
than eastern women, and feels sure
that they have before them the mis-
sion of leading in the advancement Of
the new century.
New President in Office.
Mrs. Spafford introduced Mrs. Erick
son. p~resident-elect, who assumed the
honors and duties of the office with
brief but comprehensive address Of
inaugural. The remainder of the ses
sion was devoted to general s%ociability
and the enjoyment of light refresh
ments, the young ladies who dispensed
punch being Misses Carrie Hegewald
Gladys Corthell and Venus Frazee,
Miss Mary Spafford served as usher.
New Members Admitted.
The signing of the constitution fol
next year was also an important feat
ure, and the club begins its we'll
earned vacation with the prospect Of q
brilliant m progressive session next
season. Special guests on this occa
sion were Mrs. Hunton of Wheatland

MARRIAGE A HARD PROBLEM.
How Long Should Man Wait for Psy'
choloQical Moment?

Geological Moment?
Marriage is a never-ceasing prob
lem; 1t is impossible to tell just wher
the moment of extreme regret will
come and the limit of human endur
ance will be reached. Down in Mis-,
souri, there is a man who has filed
an application for divorce because his
wife called him names back in 1868.
Undoubtedly he has good reason for
his delaying taking determined meas
uTes. Possibly he felt that the psy.
Geological moment had moi arrived.
Perhaps the enormity of the offense
and the knowledge that the law gives
him occurs did not Immediately pre-
sent themselves. And it may be that
the other woman did not come along
until 1905. The average husband is so
~considerate and tender-hearted that
he shrinks from complaining of his
domestic lot until the other woman
heaves in sight, and it does not take
her long to convince him how absurd
1t is to continue to live with a wife
who called him names thirty-seven
years ago.-Exchange.

Cause of Ocean Tides.

Tides are caused by the gravita.
uonal attraction or pull of the sun
and noon upon the water, and upon
the earth itself, The moon being so
much nearer than the sun, is. of
course. the principal cause. When
the moon is directly over a given
place it pulls the water under it, and
thus tends to keep up a tidal wave
Just under the moon AT the same
time it is pulling the earth itself; but
1t pulls the water more than the earth
underneath, simply because the moon
Is nearer to the water on the surface
than 1t is to the solid earth behind it.
