ROUGH RIDERS WENT.
FOrty-Two of Them Responded to
Invitations to Roosevelt Wedding.

New York, June 21.-Theodore
Roosevelt, jr., and Miss Eleanor But
Ter Alexander were married at
o'clock yesterday afternoon in the
Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church.
The program announced yesterday was
carried out.
Bride and bridegroom kneIt on
white satin cushions for their respon-
ses. The brides voice was inaudible,
but young Roosevelt said 81 do" with
an emphasis that brought many smiles
among the guests.
Long before the hour set for the
wedding the neighborhood of the
church was packed with crowds of the
curious. A special detail of 100 po-
licemen held them at a distance, to
prevent their lingering the texture of
the dresses of guests. over the shout
ders of the officers peeped milliners
and dressmakers note books in hand.
Miss Alexander was escorted to the
church by the same mounted officer,
al old cavalryman of Spanish war
DAYS, who rode at the elbow of Theo-
dore Roosevelt last Saturday in the
land parade from the battery to Cen
trail park and, when she came out as
Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, jr., he saw
her safely to the reception given after
the ceremony at the home of Mrs. B.
Alexander. an aunt of the bride.
Conspicuous among the guests were
forty-two Rough Riders in full uni
form. Colonel Roosevelt decided that
It would never do to leave his old com
rades out in the cold at his eldest
sons wedding Accordingly, he sent
cut a hurry call at the eleventh hour
to as many as were still in town or
could be found. The troopers sat in
the gallery. When the colonel had
taken his place with dignity, he turn
ed to look for the men and, when they
waved at him, waved back again with
boyish freedom.
More beautiful floral decorations
than those of the church are not re-
membered at any of the brilliant we'd
dings to which a sophisticated city has
grown used. The bride walked to the
altar down a lane walled with white
roses and lilies of the valley. Each
pew was outlined with roses on a
background of feathery ferns.
Pink rambler roses also hid the pull
pit. The organ was carpeted with
roses. Roses framed the windows.
Colonel Roosevelt sat with his wife
and their children, Quentin and Arch
ie. Behind them sat Mr.. and Mrs.
Nicholas Longworth. Mrs. Longworth
wore white chiffon gown, trimmed
with black and pale yellow, with big
black and yellow hat and a profusion
of iewelry.
There ware six hundred presents to
the bride, but her husband would not
permit a list of them to be given out.
Those acknowledged by the donors
were a diamond medallion from Mrs.
Russell Sage a diamond tiara from
Mrs c. B. Alexander a dozen silver
plates from Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew Car
negie, an imposing silver water pitch
er from President Taft and a gold
vanity mirror from Mrs. George ].
Gould.
After the honeymoon the bridal
couple will take UP their residence in
San Francisco. where young Roosevelt
will enter business.

CONTROVERSY is OVER.
Kansas City Packers Will Pay In
creased Taxes.

Kansas City, June 21.-The contro-
versy between the Kansas City, Kan,
packers and the Wyandotte county
commissioners over the assessment CT
the property of the packers for 1910 is
over according to the attorneys for
both sides. Following the agreement
signed last week by the packers who
promised to pay taxes on 10 per cent
increase of valuation; the Cudahy
Packing company dismissed its suit IN
the supreme court of Kansas. The
suit was against the Wyandotte county
commissioners to prevent the adding Of
an additional assessment for finished
products. The county commissioners
made an increase in valuation of the
company's finished product for 1909
after the assessment figures were re-
turned. In another suit the supreme
court decided that the finished product
is taxable.

HOFFMAN AN INSURGENT
Enterprise Miller Starts Trouble in the
Southwestern League.

Kansas City. June 21.-Taken as a
whole the session of the Southwestern
Hard Wheat Millers' league here was
warm. Not only did the sun cause
the mercury to leap upward, but the
millers had a discussion in their own
ranks not calculated to cool off the
delegates. Trouble arose over a mi
nority report submitted by Emmett
HOFFMAN of Enterprise, Kansas, advo-
eating the withdrawal of the South
western league from the National fed
Grafton, after committee had decid-
ed to pledge continued loyalty and
fealty to the larger organization.
Followers of Hoffman commended
that the National body was not work
ing IN harmony with the interests of
the southwest. 1t was claimed by the
insurgents that better results could be
OBTAINED by Withdrawing from the ma
tlonaI organization. Hoffman's report
was finally defeated by a majority of
thIee votes. But the other report was
taoled until o'clock this morning so
the insurgents have hope that Hoffman
may yet win out.

AN END TO SKIN TROUBLES.
Action of Poslam Is Rapid-Easy to
Prove What 1t VIII Do.

Prove What 1t Will Do.
ITO think says Mr.. L. J. Cooper,
North Haven, Conn, that 1 have been
trying everything (to cure eczema) for
fifteen years, and now poslam has done
it. The first application stopped all the
itching"
When a remedy is available like pos
lam, which in all skin troubles stops
itching and accomplishes cures so rap
idly and readily, there is really no rea-
son why such affections should be al
lowed to go unchecked, particularly as
no one is asked to purchase poslam
without first obtaining and trying one
of the free trial packages. This will be
sent by mail to any one who will write
to the Emergency Laboratories, 81
West 25th street, New York City.
While primarily intended for the
treatment of eczema, acne, letter, bar
ber's and all other forms of itch, etc,
poslam promptly cures all the lesser
skin affections, such as plmples,
blotches, fever blisters, red noses, IN
TANNED, skin, rash, herpes, sunburn,
clears the complexion and keeps the
skin in healthy condition.
A special 50-cent package OF poslam
is prepared for minor uses, and this, as
well as the regular two-dollar jar, is
for sale by all druggists, particularly
the Rosser Drug Co, and Fred A
Snow.
