AFFAIRS AT
~SHINGTO

Perhaps the country at large
does not realize the Importance
The great national game of base
oall plays in the affairs of the
government. The season opened
April 18th, and there were six
teen thousand rooters in the ball
park. President Taft threw the
oall which opened the game, and
among the spectators were a
large portion of the members of
congress, and most of the high of
ficials and clerks who were able
to get away for the afternoon.
Washington is already base ball
mad and on any afternoon when
here is a game, it is about as
safe to look to public officials
at the park as in their offices
or at the departments.
Popular election ofsenatorS by
direct vote Of the peple failed in
the senate in February by four
votes. 1t is generally supposed
that the changes that have been
made III the organization Of that
body will register a different re
suit when the question is finally
settled at the present session Of
congress. The house passed the
bill ina single afternoon register
ing an overwhelming majority.
A big japanese war story was
Exploded in Washington and all
throughout the country during
the week, but President Taft kill
ed it so early that no effect was
noticeable.
The smoothneSs with which the
House majority is attending to
It's affairs is almost unheard Of in
congressional history. There is
d perfect understanding among
the democratic members, and if
the present peaceful condition isl
continued, the length Of the SEES
sion will be materially shortened.
The only rumor of discomfort isl
in relation to patronage matters,
but these differences are in no
way serious.
The new House Of Representa-
lives contains 22S democrats and
100 democrats and one socialist.
There are two vacancies. In the
senate there are so republicans,
II democrats and a vacancy from
the state of Colorado.

Ny MYRTLE MILES.

A pretty wedding celebrated last even ing in Bnsley was that of Miss Annie Averyt and MT Carlton Adams Wilmore of Memphis It occurred at the home of the brides mother, Mrs. M V. Averyt, and was witnessed by 100 friends of the young people, The residence was hand somely decorated for the nuptal service, the wedding colors gold and white, show ing in q profusion of chrysanthemums. The vows were spoken beneath an arch of green, smilaX dotted with yellow blos- sons and tied with white ribbon, mak- ing the wedding picture distinctive. The same scheme prevailed in the several apartments, the decorators recognizing the value of continuity in effecting a harmonious ensemble. As the bridal march, played by Miss Rossie Christian of Columbiana, was heard, the party en- tered the drawing room, two matrons of honor leading the way. They were Mrs Joseph Conner Barrett, sister of the bride, and Mrs. Frederick Gibson Fon- vile. Both were gracefully attired in white lace lingerie made over yellow mes- saline, and their flowers were clusters
 
 bands binding the hair and gold slippers completed their becoming costumes.
 Miss Katherine Averyt, a younger sis ter of the bride was her maid of honor In crepe de chine robe made over satin, and with an arm bouquet made of white chrysanthemums, she was a very inter esting member of the bridal party. The gold band in her hair and the soft bow of yellow on her flowers made the only color note in her charming costume.
 MT. Wilmore and his best man, MT. Ed ward C. Betts of Huntsville entered to- gether and met Miss Everyt as she ap- proached with her brother pr. E. w.. Averyt, who gave her in marriage. She was very pretty in her bridal gown, crepe de chine over satin with seed pearl gar nitures and fashioned with q court train over which dropped bridal veil caught with a coronet. Her flowers were brides roses and lilies of the valley.
 The marriage ceremony was pronounced by the Rev. Mir. Ray, pastor of the Ems ley Presbyterian church.. During the vows Miss Christian softly played "Trau- meirei," the dreamy tones following sweetly upon 'I Love You Truly" sung by Mrs. Oscar Strong.
 MT. and Mrs. Wilmore left last night for brief wedding trip, at the con clusion of which they will go to Memphis to make their home. MT Wimore is a prominent young business man of that place, and his bride will be welcomed by large circle of friends.
 Mrs Wilmore has friends throughout the state who will be interested in her marriage. She is a favorite with the Au- burn college set, having been twice spon- sor and once maid of honor for the foot ball team. Mr. Wilmore was formerly of the Auburn faculty.

 4 unity of feeling, a fixed purpose, an increased loyalty on the part of every church member to their own denomina- tional Board, a determination to assume and perform part in the great work, is ? what is intended by those who have ar ranged the Golden sJubilee and, chosen Birmingham as one of the Southern cities to profit by it's work.
 No more beautiful expression concern ing the origin and purport of the Golden Jubilee has been conceived than that which Mss Rachel Lowrie has told in most convincing and definite way.
 She has outlined the idea in a terse and concise manner, which is most ap- pealing in its sincerity.
 Among other things, Miss Lowrie says
