Chas. Painter returned home
from Kansas City again Saturday.
1t is the opinion of Drs. Wheeler
and Lusher of Kansas City who
treated him that he will regain the
use of his leg and that with the ex-
ception of possible slight lameness,
there will be no bad effects. A con-
siderable portion of the bone was
removed and consequently it will
require several months until he will
be able to walk without crutches.
The trouble was of tubercular
nature and for awhile there was
great danger of his losing the limb
but the physicians now believe that
all danger is past.

the nonarrival of the coveted envelope

The original number of invitations
to be struck off for the wedding of
Miss Roosevelt and Congressman
Longworth was 1900. The number has
grown in small additions to 400, THIS
number including, of course, invita-
lions which have gone around the
world. Only about 1000 of these invf-

A movement has been started in
Boston by national officers Of the Wo-

obtain Miss Alice Roosevelt's cooper
alton towards barring wine from her
