The crown princes health Is causing

he Is able to stand the rigorous climate
Of the remote provincial town TO which
his imperial father sent him. No sug-
gession Is made that the princes pres.

deem Il advisable that his imperial high

precaution Is taken to guard his health
especially In view of the hereditary ten

LONDON, Jan, 13.-The omission OF
the word "obey" from marriage service
celebrated in church is illegal and in
yalidates the ceremony. according 10 a
sensational announcement made by the
Rev. Hugh Chapman. chaplain OF the
Chapel Royal Savoy this afternoon.
Before the altar stood Miss Una Dug
dale, daughter OF Commander Dugdale
and niece Of Viscount Peel, with Victor
D, Duval, waiting to be married. Both
are prominent supporters Of the militant
suffragists and they had decided that the
word "obey" should be omitted from the
marriage service and had communicate ed
their decision to the chaplain.
Just before the time for the ceremony,
the Rev. Mr.. Chapman sought legal ad-
vice and obtained a ruling which is like
ly to invalidate many marriages. Miss
Dugdale and Mr.. Duval, after the an
nouncement by the chaplain, decided to
waive their objections and the marriage
ceremony proceeded.
Tho chaplain himself disapproves OF
the compulsory use OF the word and
prior to this evidence expressed the hope
that there would soon be an amended
form of marriage service. rendering IT
possible for Christian people to receive
the blessings OF the church without hurt
