his junior. He is 73 years old and
she is %. Tonight the bride and
groom are on their way to the Croker
estate near Palm Beach, Fla. for their
honeymoon.
The wedding took place at the home
of Nathan Straus. Many persons whom
Croker had not taken into his conf
dence as to just where the ceremony
would be performed went to st.
Agnes church under the impression
they would witness the nuptlals, only
did not evade all the unlimited guests,
as seemed to be his purpose, for the
street in front OF the Straus home was
crowded With men and women. Only
about twenty-five were invited to the
wedding.
The bride was given away by her
uncle, W. W. Hastings, who for fifteen
years has been attorney for tie Chero-

Looking for Warships.

"a young lieutenant is posted at the
periscope and looks for the enemy.
The sailors take their position near
the torpedoes. The interior of the boat
is lighted with two small electric
bulbs. They make the darkness Wis
ible, but give no light. Everywhere
there is stale smell OF oil. The heat
in the small room is oppressive.
''Intently the men all watch the sign
board on the wall in front of them.
The storm which is raging upon the
surface makes itself felt in the depth.
Every motion of the water causes the
boat to rock up and down, up and
down, up and down.
