And then there will be delightful

will be the guests of the Niscount and
Viscountess de Chambrun. the latter
Mr.. Longworth's sister. The Presi-

Guided in this second wedding trip the
Kaiser can be reckoned upon to show

daughter of the President.
The brides troussean has been the
subject of much consideration. Every
bit of it is American made. save those
things which have come to her as we'd

just a few bits of lingerie from Paris.

room with her father.
AT the right of the clergymen Mr..
Longworth was standing with his best
man. Mr.. Roosevelt handed his
daughter to the bridegroom and
stepped aside to the left. When
Bishop Satterlee asked, Who giveth
this woman?" Mr.. Roosevelt stepped
forward and placed Miss Alice's hand
in that of Mr.. Longworth. Stepping
back again, that ended his part in the
ceremony.
The wedding marches from Mid
summer Nights Dream" and "Lohen-
grin were played as professional and
recessional. Then there were two
hymns. BE Thou Faithful Unto
DEATH" from Elijah and "'Tis Our
Wedding Morn" by Pontiatowski.
The vested choir from st. Johns sang
and afterward the Marine Band
played.

Longworth, Congressman from Ohio,
shortly after ~ O'Clock Feb. II. 1t
was the first White House wedding in
nearly twenty years. and. according
to the usual reckoning, the twelfth in
number.
A most notable company was pres
ent. Every ruling sovereign was rep
resented in person. High officials
were there; gold lace tricked out
hundreds there. No American assem-
blage gathered together ever had the
eclat of this.
Young Mr.. Longworth first met Miss
Roosevelt when he came to Washing

They were thrown together almost
from the first. and though gossip men
toned a possible engagement months
ago. nothing was made public until
last December, when the President
made formal announcement of the be-
trothal.
Miss Nellie Grant made her White
House wedding the occasion OF having
eighteen bridesmaids. II Miss Alice
Roosevelt had hidden eighteen of her
girl friends TO be maids she would
have been obliged TO ask fifty If she
would not give offense. The result
was that it was decided not to have
any bridesmaids or even maid of hon
or. Her sole attendant was her little
half-sister. Miss Ethel Roosevelt. flow
er girl.
With Mr. Lonsworth 1t was sim

tional wedding party of eight ushers
and a best man. His best man was
his brother-in-law, the Viscount de
Chambrun. who married Miss Long
worth. The Viscount is also one of
Miss Roosevelt's closest men friends.
Thousands of other brides the land
over have given their hearts and their
hands TO exactly the same words as
Miss Roosevelt gave hers Saturday.
The simple ceremony occupied barely
ten minutes. The music heightened
this to about twenty minutes.
Custom requires no altar in pri-
vate dwelling. Instead there was 4
prie-dieu at which the couple knelt
during the prayers. and nothing more.
Miss Roosevelt joined her father up
stairs and came down the grand stair

And first OF all, it will be at the
