MISS TAFT A BRIDE SOON.
Society Would Not Be Surprised a
 White House Wedding.

Washington, Feb. 20.-There are strong rumors that Helen Taft will be married to Dr. Cary Grayson, to whom her friends say she is en- gagged, before she leaves the White House. It is a significant fact that the rumOr of Miss Taft's engage ment to Dr. Grayson has never been commented on or denied by the presidents family. The rumor of an impending marriage meets with the same silence, and society is pre- pared for a White House wedding party.
 If it comes it very probably will be restricted to a few friends of both families, and lack the brillian- cy and color of the Alice Roose- velt-Longworth nuptials.

IEngland, he prepared a lecture on the History and Principles of Ma sorry, which was delivered num- Der of times, and we are told re- ceived enthusiastic commendation. He was a great student, and always
 believed in getting at the founda- tion of, any subject taken in hand.
 When he left here some months ago to go to Jonesboro with his son Bert, with whom he has lived since
 the death of his wife, he told his many friends that he would not be away long, but would soon return
 to be beside his wife, for he has
 been sufferer for over a year from cancer on the face, which caused his death February 20. He retired from active lodge work upon the completion of his year as Mas ter a year ago last December, and for the successful work of the year, and as a token of love, the members of the lodge presented him with a tri-colored emblem ring, which he prized very highly.
 Bert will remain a few days be- fore returning to his home at Jonesboro, and he and his faithful wife will receive the universal com mendation of friends and the con- scious knowledge of duty well per formed and future reward for the manner in which they have cared for the aged father in this, his last sickness, which has been a very trying one, owing to the nature If his maIady.
