FIREDESTOYEDTOWN
FOREST fire MADE CLEAN SWEEP
OF NORWOOD, Washington.
ih'rty Families Are Homeiess-Had
to Flee for safety-shingie and Saw
Mills Are Doomed-Larae Loss to
Farmers-No Reports of Loss Of Life
Received.

Bellingham, Wash, March 20.-Ths
town of Northwood. five miles from
Lynden, in the Nooksack valley, was
caught in the path of fierce forest
fire and 80 families are homeless. The
property loss is $4,000.
The entire town was laid waste by
the flames. and the little population
mad to fee for safety. They arrived at
Lynden and were afforded temporary
relief, but it is uncertain how lasting
this will be, as the flames are creep
ing toward that place. The storm OF
names had been slowly gathering for
hours. Then they commenced to in
crease in density, and shortly before
noon 1t became apparent that the town
was in the path of the fire and doom
gu. Citizens hurriedly gathered to-
gether their valuables and other ef
fects that could be carried and made
haste toward Lynden.
There are three Single mills be-
tween Northwood and Lynden which
it>will be impossible to save, as they
are directly in the path of the fire.
The loss to farmers is also great, as
many buildings near Custer and Fern
dale are completely wiped out. So far
no reports of loss of life have been re-
ceived.

BALFoUR's SEAT CONTESTED.
Former Premier Opposed by Thomas
Gibson Bowles, Defeated Free
Trade Unionist.

London, Feb. 20.-The Liberals Of
the city of London have changed
ground since Saturday and after sew
eral conferences with Thomas Gibson
Bowles, late Free Trade Unionist can
didate for Kings Lynn, where he was
defeated by Tariff Reformer, the Lib
eral association definitely selected him
to oppose former Premier Balfour In
the bye-election made necessary by
the resignation of Alton Gibbs, who
gave up his seat in order to enable
Mr. Balfour to return to parliament.
Mr.. Bowles' vitriolic criticism of his
former colleague in his letters to Sii
Alexander Fuller Adland-Hood, the
chief Conservative whip, in which Mr.
Bowles accused the Unionist party oi
sacrificing his seat on the dictum OF
Joseph Chamberlain simply because
he (Bowles) was Free Trader, Is re
garded by the Liberals as constituting
a practical severance of Mr.. Bowles
old political ties and he is thought to
be the most likely candidate to draw
the support of the Unionist Free
Fooders.
Mr.. Balfour commenced an active
campaign this morning, perambulat
Ing the greasy alleys of Billingsgate

dreds of fish sorters and receiving an

NICHOLAS LONGWORTH.

The wedding presents were very
numerous and costly, the heads of
many foreign governments taking the
opportunity to express esteem and
friendship for the American people by
gifts to the young woman whose sire
happens at this time to occupy the
post of chief magistrate,
In fact the capacity of the White
House attic has been tested to find
room for the gifts, which are said to
number over 800 and to be valued at
at least 100000.
Late in the afternoon the happy
couple departed in an automobile for
Friendship the country residence
of John X. Mclean, six miles from
Washington, where they will spend
the first few days of the honeymoon.
In the spring when congress adiourns
honeymoon trip to Europe will be
undertaken, thus completing the trip
around the world which was begun
when both were members of Secretary
Tafts party last fall, It is the inten-
tion of the couple upon their return
from this trip to live in Washington
except between sessions of congress
when their residence will be the old
Longworth home in Cincinnati.

The East room, in which the cere-
mony occurred, was literally bower
of flowers, in which roses predominant
ed, the White House conservatories
having yielded their choicest blooms to
deck the occasion.
Palms in great profusion were used
to form bridal bower in front of the
central windows on the east side of
the room. These palms were festooned
with southern smilax and the whole
was frightened with white blossoms
and knots of ribbon.
Miss Roosevelt's wedding gown was
not remarkable for its elaborate char
acter but rather for its tastefulness
and simplicity. And its quaint and
picturesque setting was more becom-
ing than a costume of greater preten-
tiousness. 1t was shimmering robe
of silver and white brocade, trimmed
with exquisite rose point lace inherit
ed by the bride from her own mother
who died when Miss Alice was three
days old.
The wedding services, which were
conducted by Bishop Satterlee, were
comparatively simple and the respons-
es of both bride and groom were clear
ly audible to all in the room. The
musical portion of the ceremony was
furnished by the famous Marine band,
which was stationed in what was the
public lobby when the White House
was used for offices.
After the completion of the cere-

about 700 in number, repaired to the

HUDSON TERCENTENARY
And Centennial Of Steam Nav
igation on That River.
Governor Higgins In Special Message
to Legislature RECOMMENDS Creation
Of Permanent Commission and a
Preliminary Appropriation--The Pro.
posed Hudson-FuIton Exposition.

Albany, Feb. Ex-Governor Higgins
last night sent to the Legislature
special message recommending the
passage of appropriate legislation to
lreate a permanent commission to
make arrangements for the celebration
of the three hundredth anniversary
of the discovery of the Hudson river
and the centennial of the first use OF
steam navigation on that river.
He also recommends that a prelim.
mary appropriation be made. The
governor some time ago named an un'
official commission but it is without
power to act for the state. The mes
sage of the governor is as follows:
During the past year the historical
societies and public spirited citizens
have been looking forward to some ac-
tion on the part of the state and the
city of New York for the appropriate
celebration of the three hundredth an
niversary of the discovery of the Hud-
son river by Hendrix Hudson in the
year 1909, and of the centennial ami
versary of the first use of steam in the
navigation of the Hudson river by
Robert Fulton in the year 1907.
"These two events in the history of
the Hudson river are Of such interest
to the state of New York and to the
United States, that it seems fitting
that a proper celebration of each
should be had.
Having in view such official action,
| acceded to the request of many gen.
tlemen interested in the plan, to name
a committee of distinguished citizens,
with whom a committee named by the
mayor of the city of New York should
cooperate to formulate plans for a
celebration of the tercentenary Of the
discovery of the Hudson.
ut has been suggested by this COM
mittee after long and careful consid-
Grafton that both events might with
propriety be celebrated together in the
year 1909 and that the union of these
two observances would strengthen
each, and would more effectually con-
centrate upon the affair the attention
of the world.
THE committee now acting has no
official status and is wholly an inform
al and unofficial body In order to
give it official standing, and to pro-
vide It with sufficient funds for pre-
liminary expenses, recommend to the
legislature the consideration of a bill
entitled An act to establish the Hud-
son-Futon celebration commission and
to prescribe the powers and duties
thereof and making an appropriation
therefor, copy of which is herewith
transmitted for your consideration"
