REGAL WEDDING
FOR MISS
REID

London, June 23. Beautiful and
historic Chapel Royal, in st. James
palace, before whose sanctuary Vic
toria was welded to Prince Albert
and which ever since has been held
sacred to royal weddings, was today
the scene of the marriage Of Miss Jean
Reid, daughter Of the American All
bassador, and John Hubert Ward.
King Edward witnessed the ceremony
and was the frat to extend his felici.
tations to the happy groom and the
blushing bride Nearly all of the mem
bers Of the British royal family and
the cream of London nobility and dip
lomatie corps, as select an assemblage
as ever gathered at the marriage Of
an American girl, aided by their pres
ence, in making this the most note
worthy matrimanial alliance that the
English metropolis has known in
years Following the ceremony, there
was great reception at Dorchester
House, the London residence Of the
brides father, American ambassador
to Great Britain and editor and owner
Of the New York Tribune. All London
society was present at the reception
and the brilliant uniforms Of the am
bassabors and ministers OF all nations
rendered the scene a highly spectae-
ular one.
Aside from his desire to do honor
to the daughter of the American
ambassador, King Edward contribu-
ted the prestige of his presence and
the solemnity Of the Chapel Royal
to the wedding through the sincers re-
spect for the groom, who is his
equerry-in-waiting. The Hon. John
Hubert Ward is the first member Of
his maiesty's household to take a
bride since the accession Of Edward,
and this also added to the nobility Of
the occasion. He is a brother Of the
Earl Of Dudley, the recently appoin-
ted governor general Of Australia.

ROBBED The
DISPENSARY

Nc Alester, June 23.-When McDuff
Vance. dispensary agent for MsAles-
ter, came down and tried his office
door he found it unlocked. With con-
siderable suspicion he entered and
found the McAlester dispensary was
bare as old Mother Hubbards cab
board The entire stock, consisting
of twelve cases of whiskey and two
cases of alcohol valued at about $500
had been taken away Even the reg
lister and various blanks required in
the operation of the dispenary had
been taken. All that were left were
the tops Of some boxes and sack
containing nothing but some advertis-
ing literature. including phamphlets
reproducing the resolutions adopted
by the prohibition state convention.
Later the records were found in the
alley in the rear of the building.
Mr. Vances stuff got in Wednesday
and remained in the original cases
unharmed that night IN the dispensary.
On Thursday, Mr. Vance checked up
his stuff. but did not take it out Of
the cases.
The door bore a common lock, read
lily turned by an ordinary key Mr..
Vance had ordered a Yale lock put
on, but il had not been done. But
there is nice. shiny, new lock on
now
Mr. Vance called on the sheriff's
office and had a flock Of deputies put
on the case. Several hundred men
are under suspicion but nobody has
yet been arrested.

MUST HAVE LUXURIES.

Students OF sociology, psychology and temper
ance might find interesting material in present
conditions some that would excellently support
their theories and some OF contrary effect A
theorizer OF Nassau street propounded:
"Men must have their luxur4es but they can
get along without their necessities II they arc

and three before going home to dinner do you
think they'll quit account OF little thing

They may retrench on their tailor and deny
themselves choice dinners at expensive restau-
ranta The ippiing habit remains with them
AS for cheaper drinks. 1 have heard Of men
smoking cheaper cigars. but they don't ask for
scent whtskey-outside OF the Bowery."
An interesting theory this, and perhaps ap-
plicabIe to q section Of the middle class that
has not lost its job and circulates between
Brooklyn and Broadway with pendulum-Iiks
regularity. On the other hand. cafe proprietor.
who did not know he was an economic determin-
ist, remarked;
THE fact Of a curtaIlment ell around at least
so per cent, is clear. There Is not much reck-

meets them. but think he sometimes goes to
places where he won't be too likely TO meet
them. There IS moral and SOLDERING effect In
dull business conditions. man out OF work
may become desperate and drink more II he has
the price. but when he is in job he is afraid
TO lose it by tnteniperance. The competition
among the unemployed tends to Gull out the
boozy wrecks that were in danger in prosper

temperance outside of the fact of money.
