Disinherited for
Marrying Gentle
DIR. DREYFus, HOWEVER, IS HAP.
PY WITH HIS BRIDE, A FOR.
MER TRAINED NURSE.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S,-Disowned by
his family because he married gen
tile, Dir. Barney ]. Dreyfus, of the
faculty Of Cornell University Medical
College, IS happy, nevertheless. Cards
announcing the marriage were sent
out, but DR.. Dreyfus expects no re-
Spouse from his wealthy relatives in
Puducah. Ky. for he was informed
sometime ago that if he married a
woman not of his own faith he would
be disinherited.
DR.. Dreyfus' wife was Miss Claire
Burke. She was a trained nurse. and
their romance began in hospital. 1t
extended over a period Of four years,
during which time the doctors family
made all sorts OF efforts TO forestall
the marriage.
Mrs. Dreyfus is a daughter Of the
lats Major John Burke, internal reve-
nue. collector for the Southern district
OF Indiana. She is Roman Catholic.
-Four years ago she went to the
Louisville Hospital, in Louisville, KY
Is a trained nurse. DR.. Dreyfus was
rounding out his medical education
there on the hospital staff. It was a
case of love at first sight, but the
Doctors parents objected strenuously
to his marrying a Christian. Two
years ago the doctor entered Cornell
Medical College here and few
months ago again tried to secure his
parents consent to his marriage to
Miss Burke He was unsuccessful,
however, and the marriage was set
for November 8. He became i'll, how.
ever, and the ceremony was perform
ed quietly. The doctor has recovered
ard returned to his duties.

A Tiny Major.

One Of the most interesting sights
which was witnessed by our late Wis
i,crs, the Knights of Pythias, was that
of tiny major of the uniform rank
whose height measures less than three
feet and whose age numbers three
years ana eight months. The tiny ma
jor was Master Bernard Fleming, the
small son of Major R, Leigh Fleming.
Master Bernard wore the full uniform
Of major of the order, an exact re-
production Of that worn by his father.
On account of the bad weather which
prevailed on the day Of the parade,
\ aster Bernard was unable to lake Il
place with other ranking officers, but
he appeared at the first session of the
convention and was also present at
the military ball.
