There, not 500 yards from the shore,

ROMANCE OF A
 CHARMED LIFE

Los Angeles. November 2.-Maj Charles c. Derudio, U. s. A., retired died yesterday at his home, aged IS years.
 An emperor and an empress quar- reled on his account. Once he was led to the guillotine and his clothing stripped from his neck and shoulders ready for his execution but a minute before the knife was to fall he was reprieved. For a long time he was a prisoner in a dungeon but he escaped and after series Of remarkable ad- ventures reached America.
 Born in Italy in 1882, Major Derudio began a turbulent carer by allying him. self with Garibaldi. while still hard ly more than boy. From Italy he went with three companions to Paris, where the four attempted to kill Napoleon III and Empress Eugenie with bonbs For this three of them were sentenced to be guillotined.
 Pieri, one of the conspirators, was executed first, and Derudio was to be next. He had said farewell to his wife and child and was ready to die. As in the case of Piere. priests marched on 
 either side of him. His arms were bound behind him and his clothing was stripped from him from his waist up, so there could be nothing to block the blade in It's fall. As a last favor De. rudio asked that he be allowed to smoke a pipeful of tobacco. The ex- ecutioner filed the pipe for the doomed man, placed 1t in his mouth and fur nished light. Then came the reprieve. The secret of the reprieve was that Derudio's young wife had so impressed the Empress Eugenie with her fearful pleas for her husbands life that the empress, failing to win mercy for the condemned man from Napoleon III, is- sued orders herself that the execution be stopped.
 When Napoleon III learned of De- rudio's escape from death he was furi- ous. He and the empress had a vio- lent quarrel.
 Derudio had only short gleam of hope He was tried once more and again was condemned to die. By this time the Emperors wrath had cooled and the tears of the empress were too much for him, so he commuted the sentence to life Imprisonment in one

of Frances penal settlements. There Derudio spent more than five years. and then. by taking advantage of a series Of queer happenings, he managed to escape and make his way to America. He joined Company A of the 18th New York volunteers as private, fought under Grant and other great com out in 1865 he was second lieutenant of the Second United States infantry. In August, 1867. he joined the regular army and was appointed second lieu tenant of infantry. Two years later he was assigned to the Seventh cavalry and under Custem saw much Indian fighting.
 In 1876 Derudio was with the Gus ter command that was massacred at the Little Big Horn.

 WEDDING YESTERDAY

WEDDING YESTERDAY
 Chrysanthemums of the most superb variety, massed against palms made an effective background for the wedding cer- emony of Miss Mary Lou Wilson and MT. William McDonald McGrath yester- day afternoon at the Cunningham Wilson home. The nuptial service took place In the drawing room where a beautiful altar was improvised with palms, ferns and smilax and frightened with white flow CTS and burning tapers.
 Promptly at the hour appointed an or chestra seated in the tea room played the opening tones of the wedding march and the bridal party began the descent of the stairs. The two ribbon girls. Miss Mary Munger and Miss Sarah Wilson, making a picture of glrlish beauty in their point d'esprit gowns over pink silk led the way to the altar and separated the aisle from the company of expectant guests. MT. McGrath and his best man, MT. George Gordon Crawford, followed after a brief interval. The bridesmaid. Miss Margaret Terrell, accompanied by the groomsman. Dr. Cabot Lull, entered next. Miss Terrell was lovely In a soft
 white marqusette creation made over satin and worn with an immense pink picture hat. Her flowers were pink roses.
 Miss Agnes Terrell. the maid of honor. entered alone. The mignonne type of her beauty has never appeared to better ad-
 vantage than when in her foam-ike
 white robe and big white hat she pre- coded her friend to the altar. Her gown was embroidered in pink rosebuds and underneath showed soft pink tint. She carried great arm bouquet of white rosebuds.
 Dr. Cunningham Wilson gave his daugh-
 ter in marriage. She was gowned in white chiffon cloth made over satin and
 embellished with a panel of rose point lace. Her veil was caught with orange
 blossoms. Mr., McGrath met his bride at the altar where the ceremony, the full Episcopal ritual, was pronounced by his father, Canon McGrath, of St. Paul S cathedral, Cincinnati. A reception followed the vows. In the dining room, where the brides cake was cut, the table was especially pretty with its pink roses and lilies of the valley. The brides cake was embossed with these dainty flowers.
 MT. and Mrs. McGrath left last even ing for a wedding journey, at the ter imitation of which they will be at home with her parents for a few months be- fore building their own home. It Is a matter of qualification to the many friends of his bride that he Is not talk ing her to a distant city.
 Mrs. McGrath is a connection of two of the best-known Birmingham families. and both because of family influence and prestige and because of her own inter- esting personality she has attained an enviable place in society, though much of her time has been spent elsewhere. She Is a graduate of Vassar and was pop ular with her college mates as she is among her Birmingham friends. MT. Me Grath became citizen of Birmingham In the spring, but has already become prominent in its social life. He formerly lived in Cincinnati, In which city his family is well known both in the social and business world.

Ing to pass upon the validity of the

porations are now paying the state

ting something over 100000 year,

the house committee considering the
Langdon tax commission bill that the
Nichols law as now applied to the
assessment OF express, telephone and
telegraph companies to secure n full
assessment value can be properly eX-
tended to railroads and all other pub
lie service corporations and should be
so extended. He urged a tax COM
mission with powers comprehensive
enough to reach all taxable property
in the state and to bring out the in
tangible and tangible property that
usually goes successfully into hiding
about the time the assessor comes
around.
In regard to the threat of the rail-
roads, that they will contest the Cole
law IL further taxed, Attorney Gem
eral Denman said: "It is not good
government, If IL be granted that the
Cole bill be not valid, to- depend upon
revenue received by agreement. We
should take all taxes as the right of
the state, The Nichols law can be
and should be extended to all public
service corporations. Moreover, the
taxation should be made TO extend
TO all property thas is taxable. If
that Is done. one per cent. on n fun
valuation win give all the money
needed for all our governments, state
and local. 1t would only be fair
that the corporations snould be taxed
and they could not object"
