WHAT THE WEATHER
MAN SAYS TODAY

The eastern crest of high pres
sure has reached the north Allan
tic coast. Reports of fair weather
within the last "a hours have been
received from most places east of
the Rockies, excepting light pre-
cipitation in the upper Mississippi
valley, the result of low pressure
over the middle of the country. A
storm center of considerable en-
ergy is near the Washington coast,
and strong gales have occurred on
the re-. ID Pacific coast, with pre-
cipitation somewhat general from
the north Pacific over the north
ern part of the Rockies. A strong
crest of high pressure is near the
middle of the Pacific coast. Tenn
peratures are slightly higher in the
north Pacific states and western
Canada. From the coast of Cali
fornia over most of the Rockies
to the eastern slope temperatures
are lower. Eastwardly from the
eastern slope considerably higher
temperatures prevail. Preparation
should be made against the melting
of snow. Unusually high water
should be expected in the streams
of the northwest. Snow or rain is
expected for tonight and Sunday in
this vicinity.

At Pentecost there was no hand

There are some preachers who

1t doesn't require spiritual life
to sell oyster soup or conduct a

It's the church people who keep
alive the theaters, the dance, ana

your names in the newspapers as
giving card parties. Gambling
rooms are not as dangerous as card
parties in the homes.
Cards would go out of business II
it wasn't for prizes. l have as
much respect for bag at Monte

cards for a prize.
The theater was intended as the

they need.

WEDDING ENL|VENED
BY BATTLE OF WOMEN
Brides Sisters Divorced
Husbands Second Wife
Leads Discordant
Element.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Seven po-
licemen from the East Fifty-first
station were required last night to
straighten out a family tangle at
the wedding of Henrietta Grudberg
of II East One Hundred and
Eleventh street. The row that oc-
Cured with her sisters divorced
husbands second wife resulted in
the arrest of two Of her brothers
and one of the wedding guests.
Five years ago Justice Blanchard
granted to Alexander Gurlan,
safe and piano dealer, a divorce
from his wife, whose maiden name
was Annie Gradberg. Gurlan was
also given the custody of his two
children, Sadies and Eugene, then
7 years and 1 year old, respective
ly. The wife was given permission
to resume her maiden name.
Gurlan, with his second wife and
Mrs. Louis Feldman, appeared at
the Fifty-first Street station last
night, and the former told Lieuten-
ant Dunn that he wanted to get to
this wedding. He said that after
he had divorced his wife he put the
children in the custody of their
maternal grandmother. Then, about
two years ago, he added, he got
married again, and decided he
would bring the children to his
home But, he claims, his first
wife learned of his intention and
ran off with the children to
Canada.
Mrs. Louis Feldman told Lieu
tenant Dunn that when the first
Mrs. Gurlan went to Canada she
took Mr.. Feldman with her. She
thought her spouse would be at the
wedding.
Lieutenant Dunn sent Patrolman
Burnell with the trio to the Vic
toria hall, where the wedding was
to take place.
When the policeman and Mrs.
Gurlan No 2, Gurlan and Mrs.
Feldman got to the hall Dr. Simon
Grudberg and Isaac Grudberg, the
brothers of the bride and of wife
No, l, recognized Mrs. Gurlan No.
2 and forbade any of the party
from entering. There ensued a
scrap in which, the policeman says,
the brothers attacked the second
Mrs. Gurlan, and he arrested
them Other wedding guests took
hand, and Nathan Brochard was
arrested. Six other policemen had
to be sent to Burnells assistance,
but no other arrests were made.
