The marriage of Miss Inga Louise Anderson to Mir. Charles F. Anderson last Wednesday evening was celebrated with great eclat. After the ceremony at the Swedish Lutheran Church, in which the Rev. J. A. Levin ofhciated, the bridal party repaired to the owl Cafe, where sumptuous banquet was spread. In the evening merry dance was held at Eagles Hall, while the band played and the small boy joined in perpetrating sickening serenade with pounding cans. But the groom did things handsome all around and no one went without share in the joy.
 After Thanksgiving day Mir. and Mrs. Anderson will be at home to their friends at Ravensdale, where the groom holds large interest in the mines of the Alaska Treasure Company.
 May the joy of their wedding day presage their journey along life's un- certain stream.

location of the headquarters, but in
view of the fact that Salt Lake man
is the executive head of the associa-

originated.

Salt Lake City.-Actual work was
inaugurated Saturday by the See
America league. The last session of
the conference was held in the card
room of the Commercial club to dis.
cuss the ways and means of financing
the organization. Complete success
attended this important part of the
work. 1t was voted to raise an emer-
gency fund of $4,000 to pay the ex-;
penses of the organization until after
the executive committee meets and
block out the permanent working
plans of the organization. A goodly
part of the $4,000 was subscribed on
the ground.
Big men are being discussed for the
presidency of the league. President
Theodore Roosevelt has been sug-
gested to be named at the close of his
presidential term of office. It is
thought that with his tremendous
prestige, especially in the west, he
would give the league an impetus that
would mean certain success.
William J. Bryan has also been sug-
gested as the head of the league.

Been Rescued by the Queen.

rigging or huddled on the afterdeck
of the rapidly sinking vessel.

gensen of the cruiser Philadelphia,
who with twenty sailors belonging to,
that vessel came down on the Queen,

vessel. He says:

and could plainly see the men and
women on the Valencia. volunteered
to man a lifeboat with my men and
attempt to rescue some of the imper-
lied ones. 1t was life and death

was made to launch boat, the Queen

ment that the Philadelphia's men
were willing to undertake to save all
the lives possible, but they were pre-
vented from doing so by Captain
Cousins. Sullivan also charges that
the officers of the Car and Salvor
were too timid to take the risks neces-
sary to rescue those on the Valencia.
Captain Cousins denies the state
ments of the bluejackets, saying:
tits a lie that these fellows were
ready to 60 out in small boat Not
