Gladys Vanderbilt and Her s5,ooo, 900
 Count Join Hands.

New York.

 The ceremony was performed by Monsigneur M. G. Lavelle, rector of St. Patrick's cathedral, wearing the pur- pie silk vestments and lace. He was assisted by Rev. John Verne. The we'd ding was probably the most brilliant in the city in several years. Many rel atives and intimate friends of the two families were present, including Ba- ron Henglemuller Won Hengervar, the Austrian ambassador to the United States and James Bryce, the British ambassador
 Outside a great crowd of the curious pubHc was hoping for a glimpse of the count and his bride. There was no disorder and hundred policemen were on guard.

 My little baby was given up by three doctors who said that the con- densed milk on which I had fed her had ruined the child's stomach. One of the doctors told me that the only thing to do would be to try Grape Nuts. so I got some and prepared it as follows: I soaked IF tablespoon fuls in one pint of cold water for half an hour, then I strained off the liquid strained Grape-Nuts juice with six teaspoonfuls of rich milk, put in a pinch of salt and little sugar. warm ed it and gave it to baby every two hours.

I can truthfully say I think it is the best food in the world to raise delicate babies on and is also delicious healthful food for grown-up as we have discovered in our family"

TWO COAST OFFICIALS
 IN WORDY WARFARE
One Does the Society, Stunt and the Other Jollies the Reporter.

James H. P Mason, the travelling agent for the Washington Sunset route and Joseph McIlroy, Pacific coast agent for the M. K. & T., both emigrated to Phoenix yesterday. It is only by the exercise of the most su- preme benevolence that these two of ficials could ever have travelled so far together. McIlroy claims Mason is the champion lightweight athlete of the coast, while Mason on the other hands confers the decoration of the Potentate of Knockers upon his somewhat more generously proportion ed companion in arms.
 Mason says Mac lost his voice in a Texas hurricane while trying to prove to the passing passengers thereof, that they were not travelling half as fast as if they had taken the Katy from Missouri. But McIlroy knows one on Mason that is the real thing. It hap pens that his friend was the highly elated recipient of "an invite" to the ball given in Globe on Thursday night by the Brotherhood of Railway Train men and the Order of Railway Con- ductors. It was a unique affair and the invitations were sent out written in lead pencil on ordinary train order blanks. Every attendant was required to register and was given a clearance card which admitted him to participa- tion in the festivities. The programs were made out on a switch list. The trainmen's vernacular was conspicuous throughout. The dance was held at the Dreamland skating rink which was decorated with brakeman's lanterns, a locomotive headlight, a bell and hun dreds of sigfi1 flags.
 McIlroy did the social stunt for the long and short pair of officials from the coast, by attending the ball. But Mason was content to nurse his joy over the inimitable invitation and to get himself interviewed or so says Mc- Ilroy. As he goes about the country he packs the sacred documents in an envelope consigned to a satchel. Upon the appearance of a new victim, he opens up the satchel, takes out the package and closes the satchel. The papers are then forthcoming from the envelope. Mason then opens up the satchel, puts in the envelope and closes the satchel.
 He then proceeds with the yarn, ms friend on the outlook for open switches or cows on the main track. Having delivered himself of the goods, Mason then opens the satchel, takes out the envelope and closes the satchel. He reverently folds the paper away in the envelope, opens the satchel lays in the package and closes the satchel and the thing is done.
 McIlroy says he now has the story of his short friend of the Washington Sunset Route by note and will act in the future as prompter in case he goes wrong McIlroy says that yesterday his friend told the tale twenty three times and told it just the same every time, which shows to his mind what a remarkable witness he would make if he once could get started telling the truth.

OREGON LAND FRAUDS
 THE HALL-MAYS CASE
Meidrun the Convict, on the Stand to Swear to His Foreeries of 5rownelPs Name,

Portland, ore. Jan. 27.-Today's ses- sion of the Mays conspiracy case was made interesting by the presence of Henry Neldrum. former United States surveyor general for Oregon, who was brought down from McNeirs Island. where he was serving a sentence. to testify that he forged the name of George S. Brownell to field notes which resulted in the indictment of BrowneI. The latter testified few days ago that Hall held the forged notes over his head in order to force Brownell to retire as a candidate for United States attorney for oregon, and to release Senators Mitchell and Fulton from d pledge to him, to rec ommend Hall for reappointment.
 Heney's purpose in having Meldrum confess the forgeries is two-fold. The case against Brownell also tends to prove Brownell's testimony was not
