DR.. Osterhaus Weds Nurse
Here of Whom Family
Has Never Heard.

DR.. Karl Osterhaus, son OF Rear Ad'
miral Hugo Osterhaus, retired, was
married in this city yesterday to Miss
Elizabeth 0xley Currie, nurse at Sea-
view Hospital, New Dorp, Staten ISL
and. The marriage was the culmina-
tion of a romance begun in the hospi-
tai, and was a complete surprise to DR..
Osterhaus's family and friends.
Admiral and Mrs. Osterhaus, when
informed last night in Washington of
the marriage of their son, expressed
great astonishment and said that 1t
was the first intimation they had re-
ceived.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. John B. Currie, of Winslow, Nova
Scotia. The ceremony was performed
in CITY Hall by Alderman John j. Rear
don. DR.. Osterhaus gave his address
as 1880 Calvert ST., Washington, and
his age as thirty-three. His bride is
twenty-fOur.
The first the Seaview Hospital knew
Of the wedding was little before MD
night. when DR.. Osterhaus and ms orlde
arrived there, confessed they were mar
ried and stayed only long enough TO
pack some things and get away
Mrs. Osterhaus, the night superih-
tendent said, had been employed at the
hospital for only two or three months.
She was popular among the nurses.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau
Washington, Dec. 2.-Dr. Karl Oster-
baus spent only two weeks at Seaview
Hospital, his mother said tonight, and
il is assumed here that MS marriage
was the result Of whirl wind court
shin. Mrs. Osternaus said that she
had never heard her son mention Miss
Currie. and she did not know Of the
nurses existence. A.,
Beyond admitting his surprise, Ad-
miral Osterhaus was uncommunicatiVe'
saving merely that he knew nothlng
whatever of the matter.
Dir Osterhaus is unknown IN WASH
ington society, but Rear Admiral ana
Mrs. Osterhaus have been prominent
fgures in naval circles since the ad-
miral was relieved Of duty on the Con-
necticut. ,...
DIR. Osterhaus's brother, Lieutenant
Commander Osterhaus, u. 5. ~, mas

familiar figures in Washington soclety'

CUPID GETS TAX BURDEN
Marriage Licenses Must Aid in
Paying for War Woes.

It's the high cost of marrying now!
A lot of pessimists may be ready to
swear that the cost is already more
than any man can afford, but they
may be thankful that they wed before
Europe elected to go to war. Looking
around for something to hang a war
tax on, Congress picked out marriage
licenses. As a married man explained
it last night, one war suggested an
other.
The tax is 10 cents, but forty-nine
fortunate bridegrooms escaped yester-
day morning because the license bu-
reau hadn't heard about the tax. At
room the notice arrived from Wash
iugton. and forty-one couples who ar
rived during the afternoon paid 81 10
a copy for their licenses. Pity the
poor Mormon!

ALLIES READY TO
POUNCE ON ENEMY
Germans First HOmeWard
Move in Force Signal
for New Offensive.

London, Dec. while there is every
indication that another big battle is
imminent in the west, there is no evi-
dence that it has actually begun. There
has been fighting in Flanders, but this
doubtless is the result of an attempt
bv the Allies TO take some advanced
position. There are also reports that
the Germans have evacuated several
villages on the User Canal and are
concentrating on new positions.
The British have taken over COM
mand of the User region and, like the
French, have been strongly reinforced.
II is believed that on the first sign Of
German movement in any considerable
force TO the east the Allies will take
the offensive in the west.
The French official statement men
tions a violent bombardment of LAM
pernisse, to the west Of Dixmude, IN
Belgium, also a repulse TO the enemy
south OF Ypres. Still further SOUTH
near Peronne. and to the southeast on
tbe Vandresse- Craonne line, there have
been artillery exchanges in which the
French claim successes. These en-
gaeements. however, have had no ap-
nreciable influence on the lines.
p In the ArgOnne the fighting has been
sharner The French report progress
on m that part Of the front, and mention
a German repulse at Fontaine- Madame,
the occupation Of trench in the for
80, near Saint Hubert. The German
of,c;ai ctS statement to-day claims the
cantnre of a strong French position in
tbe Areonne forest by Emperor Will
Iam's own regiment
In Alsace the French say they have
taken two towns, Aspach-l Haut and
Agnach-lc- Bas, southeast of Thanh.

ALLIES PREPARE MENU
FOR DINNER IN BERLIN

London, Dec. 2.-Early in the war
twenty cooks in one of the best
known restaurants in London, which
is frequented by thousands of Amer
leans in the course of the year, re-
signed and went to the front, where
they are now engaged cooking for
the "Tommies."
According to several officers who
have returned from the firing line
these cooks have one ambition, and
that is to be given permission to
cook the dinner for the victorious
armies of the Allies on the day they
march into Berlin. Even the menu
has been tentatively drawn up, but
what is causing some misgivings is
to find some things which will be
agreeable to all the elements Of the
allied armies.

General Christian De Wet rose to
fame as commander in chief of the
Orange Free State forces in the South
African war. Starting as burgher in
the Heilbron commando, he was ap-
pointed later commandant at Lady
smith and was sent to relieve General
Cronie as second in command. When
Cronje surrendered De Wet was made
commander in chief.
In the later days of this war he en-
barrassed the British army by his tao
tics. which for long time made vain
the pursuit of the remnant of his army,
although twenty British columns were
engaged IN IL. He was one of the sig
natories of the peace conference after
the war and later was Minister of Ag-
riculture in the Orange River Colony.
General De Wet at the outbreak of
the present war offered corps of
South African scouts TO Lord Kitch-
ener. Later he protested against the
action of the Union of South Africa in
fighting the Germans and took the field
against the British forces.
General De Wet has several times
been reported as meeting with reverses
and once as having been wounded. One
Of his sons was killed in the fighting
and two sons are said to have sur
rendered.
