Have Been Twelve White House Marriages
Three of the Brides Daughters of Presidents With Miss Roosevelt the FotI the Case
Of the Other Historic Weddings Brides Were Generally Related
The Chief Executves--Who They Were

washington, Feb. l1--Romance and
history have made the White House
the most interesting home in America.
or the two romance probably has con-
tributed more to endear the mansion
to the people--men AS well as women
than history. The weddings which have
taken place within its classic portals
appeal with keenest interest to every
true American.
In the century Of it's history, the
White House has been the scene OF IL
weddings. That of Miss Roosevelt aud
Mr., Longv vrth today was the largest
by far and IN some respects the most
notable wedding that ever was ceie-
brated in the mansion. Miss Roose-
Welt was the fourth daughter of pres
ident of the United States to be given
IN marriage in this official home of the
chief executive.
ONE THOUSAND GUESTS.
The list OF 1000 guests to witness
the ceremony today IL several times
larger than that invited TO any previ-
Gus White House wedding and yet the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt might
without satisfying the desires OF all
their friends. The list therefore was
made up with the idea of including OF
II certain official classes, relatives Of
the two families and the intimate per
sonal friends OF the bride and groom
As was to have been expected, the
number of guests taxed the capacity
of the White House to the utmost.
Prior to the remodelling of the in
terror OF the White House three years
ago II would not have ben possible to
entertain so large company in the
house as attended today's wedding
That fact probably accounts for tho
comparatively small llst of guests at
the weddings Thirty-two years ago
Ellen w. Grant. who endeared herself
10 the American people as Nellie"
Grant. one OF the loved and most popu-
lar of women became a White House
bride, The number OF guests at her
wedding was about 200. and writers Of
the time said that was practically all
that could have been accommodated
comfortably.
THE FIRST WEDDING.
The first White House wedding took
place during the administration OF
James Madison whose wife was prob
time in America, Mrs. MadIson's
youngest sister, Lucy Payne WASH
ington widow OF nephew of President
Washington, was married on the even
ing OF March II, 1904, to widower
who resided In Kentucky, The mar
riage was witnessed by important Off
clals and members OF the diplomatic
corps.
Just after the war of 1912 the second
White House wedding occurred. This
also was In the administration Of
Madison, the bride, Miss Anna Todd.

acting as private secretary TO President
Monroe. II was purely family affair
not even the members OF the Presi-
dents cabinet being invited The re
strictlons placed on the list OF guests

siderable sarcastic comment Mt the

House was that OF a presidents son
John Adams the son and private sec
rotary of President John Quincy
Adams, on Feb 10, 1928, was married
in the blue room to his cousin, Miss
Mary HELEN Of Philadelphia
IT was brilliant social function
and was made peculiarly notable by
the fact that President Adams led the
Virginia reel in the dance that fol-
lowed the ceremony. The wedding
aud series OF parties given the young
couple afterward by the President and
Mrs Adams were the greatest social
functions OF that time.
IN JACKSoN's TIME.
During the administration OF Pres-
dent Jackson three marriages were cell
ebrated in the White House, The first
was that OF Miss Della Lewis OF Nash
VILE, Tenn, TO Alphone Joseph Yyer

NELLIE GRANTS WEDDING.
Then in order. on May IL, 1874, the
wedding of Nellie Grant took place.
Up to that time II was far and away
the most brilliant social function OF
any kind that over had taken place In
the White House. The bridegroom was
Algernon F. e, Sartoris OF England,
who had come across the water and
had won the hand and heart OF the
best beloved OF Americas daughters
The ceremony occurred In the historic
east room, the scene OF today's we'd
ding, and IN many respects the we'd

floral decorations were magnificent,
the music exquisite and every detail
was developed beautifully. The 200
guests represented the most important
officials OF the government and mem
hers Of the diplomatic corps. The
ceremony which united Miss Roose-
welt 10 sir. Longworth was performed
on almost identically the same spot
where Nellie Grant and Algernon Sar-
toris pledged their lives u each other.

HON. B. A. PACKARD
 ARRIVES IN FL PAsO
On His Return From Wash. ingtOn on Statehood
 Business

Col B. A. Packard. one of the dele gates of Arizona who volunteered to go to Washington to combat the pass age of the joint statehood bill, arrived in Fl Paso yesterday on his return to Phoenix.
 In Fl Paso Mir. Packard was interviewed by Times reporter, in which he expressed confidence in the ultimate failure of the joint statehood bill to pass the Senate without the provision of the Foraker amendment, and in that event gave it as his opin- ion that the constitution would be voted down ten to one in Arizona
 Everywhere I have been in the East" said Mir. Packard. the senti- ment of the people is with Arizona in its fight for self-preservation, and the means used by President Roose. welt in forcing the Hamilton bill through the House are severely criti' ciseJ.
 "As last resort you may rest assur- ed that the Democrats of the Senate led by Bailey, of Texas, will not per init this outrage to be perpetrated on the people of Arizona without contest. ing it to the last ditch by every means within their power, and it must be re. membered that in the Senate there are no rules that can be enforced choking off debate"

SAGINAW COMPANY HAS CONSOLIDATED
Joint Stockholders Meeting of American and Saginaw l Will be Held

Word comes from Grand Rapids, Michigan, that the consolidation of the ISaginaw Dev. Company and the Amer. |ican Dev. Company has been agreed to by the directors of both companies, stockholders. which action is proposed to be taken at a joint meeting of both companies which has been called to meet in Bisbee on March 2.
 The capitalization of the Saginaw Company is s5o0,00o, with all of the stock issued and paid in. The Ameri- cans capitalization is s1,000, 900, with of the consolidation it is proposed to exchange shares of the American and the Saginaw in the new company on an equal basis, leaving the amount still uncalled on American payable upon demand.
 The Saginaw has evidently reached the point where it was necessary to issue more stock in order to carry on the extensive development work nee essary on this property, and making preparation for sinking to greater depth.
 The consolidation of the Saginaw and the American claims will make enc of the strongest Warren District companies, and means that the Cole crowd are not averse to increasing their holdings in the camp whenever the opportunity presents itself.
 At the mine pumping machinery of sufficient quantity to unwater the 900 level is ready for operation, and will be started on Wednesday of next week, The columns are all in and connections made. No sinking will be done, how. ever. for the present, pending new plans that will naturally be formed after the, consolidation. We are in formed that the work for the present will be concentrated in driving the drift on the 800 in the direction of the Denn just as soon as the water on the 900 has been put under control.

FIGHT TO FINISH
 STOPPED BY OFFICER
Both CombataOts Land in Jail and Pay Fine
 of S7.OO

Because he threw a potato in the Brewery Guleh Restaurant, striking a Mexican in the eye, the potato pee CT at this restaurant came near being mixed up in a free for all fight. The Mexican was working in the alley m the rear of the restaurant For a joke the restaurant employe threw the potato. Just as the Mexican looked up the potato landed in on his right eye. The Mexican, accompanied py his two co-workers. made rush for the man who threw the potato, but before they got to the restaurant he had the door shut and barred. After a fruitless effort to force the door the Mexicans gave up and turned their attentions to dressing the eye of the wounded man.
 On Nam street Friday night about Il o'clock, without referee, second, or even an audience, two men walked out into the middle of the streets for a finish fighs In about the third round Officer Jack White appeared on the scene, and assuming the functions of a pilot steered the combatants to the county jail. Both appeared in court yesterday and pleaded guilty to a charge of fighting, and were fined s7 each.
 To keep the pugilistic ball rolling, nine Mexicans yesterday morning shortly after the fight on Main street, engaged in a free for all fight in B. Carretto's saloon on o. K. street. The trouble started when one Mexican, ,r fiery oratoricaI inclinations. insisted that he be granted the privilege of giv- ing vent to his feelings from the top of the bar. The bartender blocked his move, and to get even with the bartender the Mexican cut loose al the Mexican standing nearest to him. He landed safely, and the Mexican went down. His friends took up the fight, which was at its best when Of ficer White again appeared on the scene and steered the bunch to Jari. They were all fined s7 each yesterday.
