Justice MARRIES
april FOOL COUPLE

Plaquemine, La, April 5.-An April
fool joke with the solemnity of
marriage, the signing Of check with
which to pay the fee to the presiding

Gervais Skelly, an engineer on the
st. Louis plantation, went to the
Court House, secured a marriage
blank and filled in the names of f1c-

Be City Beautiful.

Canberra. N. s. W.-Americans will
take a keen interest in the construc-
ton of the federal capital city of the
commonwealth of Australia, because,
like the federal capital city of the
United States, it was completely plan
ned before the foundation stone or the
first permanent building was laid, and
also because the architect whose de-
signs have been accepted, Walter Bur
ley Griffin, is an American, says b
Boston Transcript. The choice of the
Canberra district of New South
Wales, as the site of the city, was
made by the commonwealth govern
ment in 1910, and the invitation to
architects %embodying the conditions OF
completion was issued April 30, 1911.
To give an idea of the magnitude of
the task, it may be stated that the
requirements for the consideration or
the designers included the ALLEGATION
of appropriate areas embracing sites
not only for the house of parliament,
residence of the governor general and
the usual ministerial and administra-
tive Offices, but places Of public wor-
ship, mint, national art gallery and
library, state house, printing office,
government factories, university, tech
meal college, city hall, general post
Office, museum, central railway sta
ton, railway m%arshaling yards, mill
tary barracks, criminal and police
courts, Jail, hospital, national thea
ter, central power station, gas works,
markets, stadium, parks and gardens,
etc. 1t was a great work to design this
model city, and Mr.. Griffin may we'll
