with genius. The vocal pupils also did
fine work, among which were Miss

NUPTIAL JOURNEY
WAS STRENUOUS
PROSECUTOR EDDIE RETURNS
AFTER FATEFUL TRIP
Steamer, Train and Stage Tied Up
in Succession While Bride Waited
In Suspense - Happy
Climax

Guy W. Eddie, assistant city prosecu-
tor, and his bride of a few weeks have
arrived in Los Angeles and Mr.. Eddie
resumed his duties at the Central sta
tion yesterday.
With Mr.. Eddie came a story of a
long Journey to Humboldt county,
postponed wedding, a belated BRIDE
groom, merry wedding bells and a
happy ever afterward."
Mr.. Eddie left Los Angeles about six
weeks ago, three days before the date
of the wedding. He went north to at
tend to some business. According to
his calendar he should have been on
time long before the wedding.
While in the north he learned that
the steamer that he was to take was
tied up in the sailors strike. All
thoughts of business were forgotten in
those of love. He went with all possible
speed to telegraph and wired his fan
Gee that he would be late.
Then he took the first train After a
long, humping journey he alighted at
little country station. AS he explained
1T yesterday, there were about 5000
other people who desired passage on the
little stage,
Waits Two Days
Men of business would not hearken
TO his appeals and allow him to take
their place on the stage. Two days he
waited at the little station before his
turn came to leave.
The stage journey was one that he
will never forget. The stage was an
are crammed into a space only big
enough for four
They left the little town in the after
noon. All night they Travelled, sleeping
only between the jolts from bumps on
the road.
The next day the rain began to fall.
1t was a regular tropical downpour
The slippery clay caused the horses to
slide and stumble.
Finally a strip of timber fifteen miles
in length was reached. When it came
to riding there was nothing doing for
the stage passengers. Mr.. Eddie said
it reminded him of the piece of poetry
that was compased in Missouri or
somewhere near there that ran, Walk
darn you, walk" Walk they did.
The horses f1oundered in mud: For
fifteen hours they continued to fioun-
der With the aid of the passengers
pushing the good roads were finally
reached. The stage journey was soon
ended.
Reaches Eureka
| THE journey on bumpy cars was again
, resumed. Mr.. Eddie's courage never
waned but he acknowledged that his
| heart went pit-a-pat when the deep
voiced conductor shouted Eureka"
When the train slowed down the
guests who had been invited to the
wedding began climbing on the train
and almost overpowered him with
! handshakings and embracing. In royal
style he was conducted to a hotel,
where he cleaned the mud from his
clothes and donned his wedding gar
| ments.
The belated wedding was all the mer-
rier for being late.
Mrs Eddie was Miss Marie Theresa
Park. Her parents are well known
people in Humboldt county.
The honeymoon was spent on ranch
| in the mountains which is the property
of Mrs. Eddie. The couple were de-
layed seven days on their return, on
account of not being able to get a
| southbound boat at Eureka.

COUNT TOLLS In
LETTS' GARDEN
Won BUELoW HAS LINEAGE OF
800 YEARS
Though Rich and Proud, Titled Ger
man Quietly Devotes Himself to
Holmby House, Estate of
Los Angeles Man

Arthur Let's proprietor of the
Broadway department store, has in his
employ at his grounds, Holmby house
in Hollywood, a gardener with a line
age that runs back 800 years
He is Won Buelow.
He is a count.
He is too proud to let his folks know
of his circumstances and refuses to
make peace with his wifes lawyers,
who he alleges keep him out of an es-
tate worth a million.
His wife is supposed to be near Colo
RADIO Springs held back by influences
that prevent a reconciliation between
her and her titled husband.
Count Won Buelow visited the mag
nificent Let's estate some time ago,
asking to be put in service as a land
scape gardener. His appearance was
that of man far removed from pros
perity, but his manners and pure Ger
man indicated that he had been high
ly trained in technical schools and he
was engaged.
He did not state his name and it was
not asked, the man evidently wishing
to screen his family.
Gradually the fact leaked out, how
ever. that the humble gardener was
none other than Count Max Won Bue-
low of the family which furnished
Germany with some of its greatest
statesmen and generals; and other en-
ployes on the Let's gardens gave him
the title Count much against his
will.
Count Won Buelow devotes most of
his attention to the tropical gardens
which form one section of the pictur-
esque terraces and sunken gardens at
Holmby house. Here botanical va
rieties from Africa, India. Asia and
Australia are grouped In rich artistic
profuslon, and the distinguished for
eigner gives his devoted attention to
specimens which doubtless convey to
him many pleasant impressions and
"reminiscences OF travels in the coun-
