suaded TO united with the Housekeepers'

House relative to Mexican mediation.
About as many persons close to the
President and Mrs. Wilson have been

ubject as the other.
However. those who are to form the
mall company of perhaps fifty who are
o witness the ceremony, have been
lsked for the late afternoon, probably
Ibout 40 o'clock. The out-of-town
quests will include the uncles of the
bride, Joseph Wilson. of Nashville, and
John A. Wilson and their wives; a few
cousins, but only a small number of
hose who attended the marriage of
Fessie Woodrow Wilson and Francis

confusion which attended the gift pre-
sented to Mrs Francis 3. Sayre by mem

serving the most profound secrecy in
the matter.

take place in the Blue Room. where

il is beyond human belief that a girl
who has an opportunity to add so i'm

the outdoors instead of one of the State
parlors for her marriage ceremony. Miss
Eleanor Wilson has been heard to ex-
press her awe of the coldness and for
