HELEN D|NSM0RE HUNTINGTON WILL
BECOME BRIDE Of VINCENT AST0R
Young New York MutMonae and Charming American Girl to
Marry April 30coupIe Have Been Acquainted From In
fancy-Mother of Prospective Groom Arrives From Eu-
rope to Witness the CEREMONY

New York.-On the last day OF April
4 most notable society event will take
Mace up the Hudson-the marriage Of
the head of one of the greatest Ameri-
can houses, Vincent Astor, and Helen
Dinsmore Huntington. daughter of an
other line which has long been promi-
nent In American affairs.
The recent arrival from Europe Of
the mother of the bridegroom-to-be.
Mrs.. Ava Willing Astor. the refitting Of
te famous yacht Mona and announce
ment of the wedding 30 shortly before
the date set today are concentrating
the attention of society folk upon the
young couple.
Through the winter there was much
mystery about their plans. Many hint.
ID at q secret wedding. 1t was thought
the Mona was to be used for q mys-
tsrious purpose.
This idea was fostered largely by the
simple tastes Of the young couple. The
brideto-be has extracted from her be-
trothed q promise that they will spend
most of their lives on the beautiful
banks Of the Hudson. where she was
brought up and where Astor's 5000
acre Ferncliffe estate lies. She Ia not
unsociable. nor at all ignorant of ball
rooms. theaters and "doings." but she
cares not q whit for the formal side of
society.
The wedding will be q country cere-
mony. either at Hopeland House. the
mansion on the Huntington estate. or
IN the little country church nearby.
Young Aston has not been very we'll
this winter. He has suffered from
pneumonia and bronchitis. It will be
remembered that his mother almost
despaired of his life at the age
Of eight. when she hurried him OF to
st. Moritz.
From the life Miss Huntington has
led % far 1t Is to be expected that she
and her husband will spend much time
In the open. The tall. blonde girl OF
twenty was brought up almost entire
" on the big Huntington and Dinsmore
places along the Hudson. which were
once held by her grandfather. William
B. Dinsmore. late president of the
Adams Express company. She went to
school in Dobbs Ferry, which isn't q
great distance from her home. and she
has spent some winters in New York
city.
Her first quarrel with Vincent came
at the age Of nine-he being then
eleven. She had planted an oak tree.
when three years old. with the aid of
her grandparents. Mr.. and Mrs. Rob-
srt P. Huntington. The tree had grown
Tor six years and she proudly took her
little visitor from up the road" out to
look at It. Aston remarked. with Q
critical eye. 1t would take some years
for the tree to be big enough to climb
b. The visit ended abruptly right
there. but the next day Vincent sought
and obtained pardon over the tele-
phone.

building company began to rip out the
fittings Of the Mona. It was naturally

Aston will be often In the headlines
the next few months and that New
York newspaper reporters will have
several merry little chases to amuse
them.

make money to get married, like any
