TWO HIGH FAMILIES UNITED
Native Rulers of Indian States Sub
ject to British Rule Become Al
lied by Marriage.

Two of the most powerful natiVe
ruling families of British India were
united when Princess Indira, only
daughter of the reigning maharaJah
Goekwar of Baroda, was married IN
London to Prince Jitendra, son of the
maharajah of Cooch-Behar, after TO
mantle courtship.
The initial ceremony, which took
place in the strictest privacy, was
performed at the hotel where the
young bride had been staying.
and was accompanied by the
customary Hindu rites. Prior to the
marriage Princess Indira had been re-
ceived in to the Brahamist faith, the
creed of the bridegroom. Subsequent
ly the forms Of a civil marriage were
gone through at a registry Office.
Intense interest had been aroused
in the attachment of the couple,
whose wedding had first been fixed to
take place in India May 5, but was
suddenly called off Immediately af-
terward the bride and her parents
sailed from Bombay for England, and
were followed by Prince Pitendra.
1t is understood that the gaekwar
finally yielded to the opportunities OF
his daughter and consented to the
marriage, at which, however, he was
not present.
The bridegroom created sensation
by appearing at the hotel in his mag
nificent Indian robes of white silk,
heavily embroidered with gold.
The brides father and brother.

Ever since that memorable foot-race

had brooded over the place which
even the presence OF two Smith Col

too, they show an unusual liveliness
at the approach of storm. Even the
sedate pig is watched by country
weather prophets. for it is always
uneasy when rain is coming.
Most birds are restless when a
change is expected. Rain is indicated
by guineafowls and peacocks squall-
ing. by parrots whistllng. aud by
pigeons returning home unusually
early.
