DEATH AT 4 WEDDING.

The sudden death OF Mrs. Elizabeth
A. Bryan, wife of Mr.. David P. Bryan,
of Govanstown, as the wedding party
of her sister was leaving St. Mary's
Catholic Church, Govanstown, near
Baltimore, yesterday afternoon, turn
ed a scene Of gayety into one of sorrow
and mourning and cast gloom over
the entire village.
Just as the carriage bearing the bride
and groom and their attendants had
rolled away from the church and a
second carriage, in which we're the
brides parents, was about to leave,
Mrs. Bryan gasped and would have
fallen to the ground had she not been
caught in the arms Of her husband.
With the assistance of Mr.. John j.
Fahey, Mrs. Bryan was laid on the
church lawn and everything possible
was done to revive her, but she never
recovered consciousness.

SENATOR DANIELS SUCCESSOR.


There is little dissent from the opin-
ion that Ex-Governor Claude A. Swan
son will be appointed by Governor
Mann to fill out the uncxpired term OF
Senator Daniel, which will end on
March 4, 1911. He will also be named
for the new term beginning on that
day, subject, of course, to the action
Of the legislature at the session which
begins in January, 1912.
This means that there will be Il
double primary in Virginia next sum-
mer. The term of Senator Martin will
expire in March, 1918, and the next
general assembly will be called upon to
elect his successor. Thus there are
two senators to be elected, under in
structions by the people at the demo-
cratic primary next summer.
Representative Flood, Speaker Byrd,
OF the House of Delegates, and others
have been mentioned in connection
with the appointment, but the general
impression is, as above slated, that
former Governor Swanson will be the
appointee.

is believed by the the members Of the

with the movement that in years to
come the dangerous and annoying OBJ
servance Of the independence Day will
be a thing Of the past.
