The Fitchburg (Mass.) Sentinel of
July 7, says:
A very quiet and pretty home wedding
occurred at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles H. Kenney on Wednesday even
ing, when their daughter, Crete Mabel,
became the bride of Charles Milton Olcott
of Brookline. The nuptials were solemn
lied in the prettily decorated parlor at 6
o'clock, Rev DR.. James Chalmers officiat-
ing, and the single ring service was used.
The bridal couple were attended by Gage
Olcott of Brookline, a brother of the
groom, who was best man, and the maid
of honor was Miss Jessie X. Rockwell of
this city. -
The desires of the contracting parties
and their families to have the ceremony of
a quiet and simple nature were carried out
and the wedding party included only i'm
mediate relatives and very few intimate
friends, and there we're no cards. The re-
ception which followed was informal in
character, while the decorations which
provided the setting for the happy occa-
sion were of simple design, although dis
playing exceeding good taste in their gen.
eral arrangement.
The parlor and adjoining apartments
were prettily decorated with palms, potted
plants, Rambler roses, and many large
clusters of daisies, the ceremony being
performed in front of massive bank of
palms and cut flowers, fanked upon either
side with further extensions of the floral
effects. The decorations had been pro-
vided through the efforts of several of the
young lady friends of the bride and thor
oughly harmonized with the general ma
ture of the occasion.
The bridal procession entered the parlor
to the strains of the bridal chorus from
Lohengrin," played by Miss Elizabeth
Leiper. The ribbon bearer was little War
rem Flanders Noyes of Woburn, a cousin
of the bride and the latter was upon the
arm of her father, who gave her away.
The brides gown was of white messaline
satin and she carried white marguerites,
while the maid of honor was attired in
pink messaline satin and carried Duchess
roses.
The reception which followed imme-
diately upon the conclusion of the cere-
mony was informal and included only the
wedding party, refreshments being served
at this time. Mr. and Mrs Olcott left
early in the evening for an extended we'd
ding trip and, upon their return, will re-
side at 81 Fayette street, WATERFOWL,
where new home awaits them.
In spite of the quiet nature and general
of the nuptials the wedding was
one in which much interest was taken
among the social circles of this city, in
which the bride is especially well known.
The groom is in business in Boston, and
it prominent in the social circles of Brook
line and other Boston suburbs.

THE LAWYERS FEE.

Is there to be no ethical awaken
ing of the legal fraternity to the
scandalous history being written
into the profession by the out
rageously large fees demanded and
allowed during this period of high
finance? Because, by the juggling
Of stocks, the plausible schemes of
underwriting syndicates and other
devices of the financial world of
today, men "make millions over
night, does it necessarily or
otherwise follow that any man is
justified in charging legal fee out
of all proportion to the work per-
formed and far beyond the mental
capacity of man to earn, no matter
what the measurement may be?

How could he earn that much?
Still more startling was the fee of
$775, 900 allowed, some months ago,
to New York's noted lawyer, Sam
uel Utermeyer for services extending
not over four years, which did not
command anything like his entire
time as he appeared as counsel in
many other cases during those years.
The fee paid Utermeyer was for
his professional services in relation
to the merging of the Boston Con-
Copper Company with the
Utah Copper Company, and, com
upon it at the time, the
Springfield Republican said, "The
average man, moving a little out
side of those "higher realms" of |
finance will be apt to pronounce Mr..
Utermeyer's compensation as scan
lalously excessive and without any
economic justification.

THE SUPREME COURT.

The death of Chief Justice Fuller
of the United States Supreme Court
and the probable retirement OF
Associate Justice Moody seem to
promise that President Taft will
have the naming of a maj ority of
members of that body at a time
when there is pending before it two
of the most important cases for
years, in one of which a definition
may be given of monopoly, "
and in the other the line of business
expansion legally permitted without
coming into conflict with the Sher-
man antitrust law may be made clear
Besides these pending cases, there
are Others SOON to be considered Of
vast Importance to the industrial
welfare of the country, such as the
constitutionality of the corporation
tax law, and various debated ques-
tions arising from recent legislation,
or efforts to enforce laws that have
lain practically dormant since enact
ment, till now. Beyond all this may
come further legislation, such as the
corporation franchise proposal and
similar revolutionary measures, So
called because radically different
from any previous legislation, and
in some cases upsetting principles
supposed to be firmly established
President Taft is a strong man of
essentially judicial temperament and
it is fortunate that such a man
happens to be Chief Magistrate of
the Nation when such power falls
into one mans hands, and it is
equally fortunate that in the Senate
of the United States, which must
confirm his nominations, there are
still some sound old Constitutional
warehouses not liable to be swayed
by the clamor of the hour should the
President err in any one of his
selections.
The Immediately important object
however, is that the Court vacances
be filled as quickly as possible, and
as the President is said to be opposed
to making appointments to the
Supreme Court, during Congress
sional recesses, strong public
sentiment is arising in favor of his
calling the Senate together in special
session to act on his nominations.
1t would seem that the situation
warrants such action.

Sutton Company Coming.

Commencing on next Monday night,
May 9, and running the rest of the
week, the Boosters company, reper-

at the Lucas opera house, changing
the play nightly and producing a
variety of plavs to suit all. This COM
pany is not known here but Mr.. Dick
p. Sutton of Butte sends it with his
pei sonal guarantee that this is the
best company ever under his manage
ment. While the players are new here,
their reputation has preceded them
and by reputation at least they are not
strangers. Some of the members of
the Boosters company were members
of the disbanded jolly Della Pringle
company who made a great hit in Mis-
soula. The others of the company
were brought from the East, where
they had without exception been mem
bers of leading stock companies. The
plays selected to present here are all

The patrons of the Lucas will be
given numbers every evening for
drawing, which will be held on Friday
night, the person holding the lucky
number will get a beautiful diamond
ring. The only condition is that the
winner must be in the house on Friday
night. The ring is a truly valua BILE
one and the one who wins it will get
a prize indeed.
Specialties will be introduced and
changed every night. The play for
Monday will be IAN Aristocratic
Tramp" and the one selected for Tues
day is Tempest and Sunshine" An
nouncement will be made each evening
as TO what the play tor the following
night will be. Mr.. Sutton claims for
his new organization that it is the
best in the West and positively that
Hamilton has never had popular
priced company visit here that con-
tanned the first class artists that the

The Drunken berg Wagner admins
tration of city affairs passed into
oblivion Monday night. Two feeble
attempts were made to influence the
policy of the new administration but
did not avail. First, City Attorney
Wagner pleaded for authority to con-
tinue in charge of the appeal of the
sidewalk case in the supreme court.
Alderman McGlauf1in remarked that
he considered it "a waste of time and
money but said that he would not
oppose it if all the other members
wished to push it. Mayor Drinken-
berg urged that the case he fought to
finish and upon vote being taken
the proposition carried, Aldermen
Flaherty and McGlaut1in voting
against it. Second, an attempt was
made to prevent the confirmation of
r. A. O'Hara as successor to City
Attorney Wagner, in the expectation
that the latter would be permitted to
hold over, but the attempt failed.
The routine and unfinished business
of the old council was cleaned up;
Mayor Drinkenberg thanked the men,
bers for past courtesies and the council
adjourned sine die.
Thereupon the oath of Office was
subscribed to by the new mayor and
aldermen. Mayor Flaherty then took
the chair and proceeded with the order
of business.
W. A. Hayes was unanimously
chosen president of the council.
