MRS. 4. W. ASTOR
PUBLICLY SNUBBED
BY QUEEN MARY
Makes Lowest Bow, but Gets
Drop of Eyelid in
Reply.

LONDON, May 20-When Mrs. Ava
Willing Astor was driving through
hyde Park yesterday her motor car
was halted while Queen Mary passed
near Stanhope Gate. Mrs. Astor bowed
as low as she could, being seated, OF
course Those who saw It say the
queen did no more than drop her eye
lids in Acknowledgement of Mrs Astor's S
salutation.
The contrast between the costumes OF
the two women was most striking.
Mrs Astor was a perfect picture of
modern "smartness;" the queen wore
one Of the sedate British gowns OF
which she seems so proud. Mrs. Astor' g
black satin gown clung to her so closely
that one wondered how she contrived
to sit down without something happen
ing. The neck of her corsage was cut
ver,- low, revealing a dazzlingly white
throat Her black hat was enormously
large; perhaps it's size explained the
( Il that she was alone in the automo-
bile. Her dress was opened at the
foot to allow freer movement in walk
ing.
The queen was attired in a conven-
tional bodice of gray cashmere, made
with long. tight sleeves and finishing
in a point back and front after the
fashion of twenty-five years ago. Her
skirt, pleated closely al the waist. fell
in thick folds. Her hat was small and
of an old-fashioned type, trimmed with
three feathers. all on one side. and a
velvet bow on the other.
Mrs Astor created sensation at
Lady Savile's fancy dress dinner by
coming in a beautiful harem costume.

able romance which terminated here
today, when after >courtship of sew

theatrical people in New England as
"Boston's Little Church Around the
Corner The romance began when
the Pennan Winners appeared in the
Empire Theatre, in Newark. Mr.. Ed
wards was present at the show and at
once fell in love with the fair actress
After the ceremony, which was at
tended by hundreds of theatrical per-
formers, Mr.. and Mrs. Edwards left for
an extended honeymoon. They will
make their future home in Canton.

he got permission from the fater de-

100000 GALLONS OF
BEER FOR 3-DAY THIRST

No other city In the world, not even
Berlin, it is said can show such a
beer-drinking record. About one-half
of the population does not drink beer.
so 1t remained for the other half to
use four quarters a day each.
There are over 1000 saloons in the
city. Ordinarily the consumption of
beer is three barrels a day to each
saloon. This indicates that in average
weather the city consumes about 675,0OC
gallons of beer a day With the hot
wave, however, there has been a big
increase. and the total sale has been
more than 10000 barrels a day.
