PRINCE RADZY DID
WELL?

Though the ceremony was quiet
and Miss Deacon wore a travelling
gown, goodly number of titled
folk, diplomatic persons and just
rich Americans were at the church.
The prince and princess left i'm
mediately for the continent for a
motor tour. They will reside on
the princes estate in Poland.
Now Adams & Adams have
broken their silence to give Mrs.
Baldwin's explanation of why the
marriage did not occur on the day
first named.
The princes grandmother" said
the senior member, met Miss Dea-
con in Rome. The aged noblewo-
man was greatly taken with the
vivacious young American and in
vited her to visit the Poland es-
tate, where the grandmother made
opportunities for the two young
people to see much of each other
Thus encouraged, the prince
followed Miss Deacon to Rome, to
Paris, and finally to London. When
he wrote his grandmother that he
had proposed and had been accept
ed, the old lady. making an about
face, was furious. Her grandson,
she said, was prince of the blood
the head of the family, and it was
preposterous that he should marry
a commoner. Her design had been
to marry the American girl to an
other grandson and not to the head
of the family.
1T was pointed out to her that
Miss Deacon was a granddaughter
of the Lac Admiral Baldwin of the
United States navy, therefore of
some social importance in her own
country, and that her private in
come was sufficient to make the
princes income from his Poland
estate look small.
so, after many heart-burnings
/ the grandmother's opposition was
overcome and permission was fl
nally given for the marriage. ! dc

prince did not do at all badly b!

Princess Radziwill's mother. Mrs

Francis Deacon, whose killing of ;

years ago, furnished a tremendou

POSITION
Roosevelt's Candidate for
Ohio Governorship Has
Regulars Worried.
(By United Press Leased Wire)

COLUMBUS, O., July 26.-Carry-
ing the we'll wishes of Theodore
Roosevelt, former Secretary of the
Interior Garfield and his forces are
ready today to enter the fight for a
progressive platform in the Ohio
republican convention, while the
anti-Garfield forces, after long
conference. failed to reach an
agreement for concerted fight
against the progressives.
Senators Burton and Dick, after
had failed TO agree, and it is be-
lieved that Garfield's position to-
day is more. commanding than it
has been since the delegates began
to assemble.
The convention will begin at 4
p. m. Congressman Nicholas Long
worth will make the keynote
speech The contest over the plat
form overshadows the fight for the
gubernatorial nomination.
y Garfield's statement that his atti-
tude toward the administration
does not mean a fight with the
white house, and that the platform
he endorses does not mean an as
sault on the president has helped
his cause, and his stock with the
delegates generally has ben boosted
by his position. The regulars are
evidently worried.

PITTSBURG, July 26.-Mrs.
Alice Longworth, daughter of ex-
President Roosevelt, today has to
thank an elderly lady, whose name
is kept secret for defending her
before meeting of the Pittsburg
playgoers club last night when the
question of whether or not Mrs.
Longworth smoked cigarettes came
up.
The clubs membership is con-
fined to Pittsburg society leaders.
The cigarette question was
launched incidentally, but before
it had been under discussion long
the meeting was turned into a de-
batting society.
When Mrs. Longworth's name
was mentioned the unknown elder
ly lady pointed to the fact that
many of our gradmothers smoked.
Alike might do worse things
than smoke-if she does smoke"

smoke, why not let her get corn
cob and smoke as our grandmoth-

convinced that the machine,
which was constructed by two

cessful. Though mishaps have
marked all previous flights,
yesterdays flights were per-
feet. J. w. Peters, who guided
the aeroplane, did not try to fly
at any ereight height, which
made It all the easier for tho
spectators to watch the aerial

STEEL TRUSTS NEW 10
CITY, COREY" TO p.
COST $5O,OOO,O0O

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 90
These are the days w:len big bust
ness buys governments and makes
and unmakes cities.
The steel trust will build a city
on 1000 acres near here, which 1t
recently acquired, like the model
city Of Gary, named after Director
E. H. Gary, which is built in north
ern Indiana. The new city will be
named Corey" after President
William Ellis Corey, the husband of
Mabelle Gilman, the chorus girl.
The corporation will spend $780,
100000 in building the city. One
subsidiary, the Tennessee Coal G
Iron Co., is building a 100000
by product coke plant, and the
American Steel & Wire Co., an
other branch, will cover 10 acres
with 100000 wire and nail
plant.
The location Is an ideal one for
the steel plant. 1t is in the heart
of an iron and coal district. 1t is in
Alabama, where the miners union
was broken up and the state gov
eminent has shown itself to be the
kind that will call out the militia to
persuade the steel workers that it Is
their duty to accept cheerfully their
lot of being manned and killed in
order that the man who has hon
ored them by naming their town
after him may rejoice in his $4,000,
900 palace in Paris.
1t will also make the southern
and South American markets easier
of access.
