WEDDING BELLS
WILL T|NKLE
CUPID IS H0VERING ABOUT
BUSCH MANSION
Caretakers Are Making the Estate
Look Its Prettiest and Neighbors
Are Drawing Romantic
Conclusions

The Busch mansion at Orange Grove
avenue and Arlington drive, Pasadena,
bears renewed evidences of the ap-
preaching nuptials which society ac-
cepts as inevitable though official con-
firmation is lacking.
The continued presence of Lieutenant
Eduard Scharrer about the hospitabIe
premises, the incessant labors of the
staff of sixteen attaches to put the
Busche place in perfect shape as
though gala occasion was impending,
and the whisperings from neighbors
lend color to the oft-repeated hint that
orange blossoms will be in evidence
before the flowers bloom their brightest
in March.
The weighty question now is. when
will Adolphus Busch put in his ap-
pearance? He started once for the
coast in his private car, but because
of indsposition and the news of his
son-in-law's tragic death in Chicago he
turned back and his departure from ST.
Louis is uncertain.
Go Driving Daily
In the meantime the tall Stuttgarter
is making the most of fate and is seen
daily driving automobiles and turnouts
from the elaborate Busch establish
ment and coincidently Miss Wilhelmina
Busch and chaperone are the guests.
The beautiful drives around Pasa-
dena have no end of attractions for
tourists and they seem deeply attrac-
tive to the chivalric German who is
having the time of his life in hospitable
California.
He still maintains his luxurious suite
at Hotel Green, where attaches treat
him deferentially. His liberality has
not abated since his stay here.
The lawns the SunlSoD gard an1
the flower beds on the Busch estate
never looked lovelier than now. Every
auto and vehicle that comes within
reasonable distance of the premises is
driven towards the vicinity to give the
occupants viStas of the beautiful sur
roundings and the panorama. The
lawn mowers are constantly at work,
the vines and shrubs are being trimmed
to meet the critical gaze of the head
of the house. and the touches of beauty
that only feminine direction suggest
are apparent in everything about the
spacious house.
