REBELS ASSAULT TAMPIco.
Admiral Mayo Reports Heavy But In
decisive Fighting.

Washington.-The rebels made a
sharp attack on Tampico, according
to a despatch received from Admiral
Mayo. The attack was delivered from
the north and northwest of the oil
port.
The Admiral added that firing con-
tinues there daily. The Federals have
been REINFORCED by 1900 men.
1t was reported here that Ad-
miral Mayo has expressed his conf
dence in being able to take Tampico
with the feet now under his COM
mand. He has, in addition to his flag
ship the Des Moines, two cruisers and
a 1otilla of mine torpedo boats and
~destroyers. There is reason to believe
that Admiral Mayo has limited in his
dispatches more than once at the adj
visibility of taking Tampico.

1t is remarked that of the many
weddings that have been held in the
White House, Miss Eleanor Wilson is
the first daughter of a President to be
married in the famous and beautiful
Rlue Room. All of her predecessors
have been married in the East Room
Mrs. Grover Cleveland was married
in the Blue Room, but she was not a
daughter of a President. The son of
President John Quincy Adams was
married in the Blue Room in 1926.
At the Cabinet meeting, which was
the last to be attended by Secretary
McAdoo as a member only Of the
Presidents official family and not as
a soninlaw, his colleagues made it
exceedingly interesting for the bride
groom elect. The Presidents known
disapprobation of the open discussion
of domestic affairs kept the "jollying"
process within bounds, but neverthe-
less Secretary Garrison and Secretary
Lane, the irrepressibles of the Cabt
net, had their fun with Mr.. McAdoo
coyertly.
Miss Eleanor R. Wilson, whose en-
gagement ring is unusual, a huge opal
circled by diamonds, added to her col
lection of tokens the day before g.
solitaire opal ring, set in dull gold.
The exquisite shading of the gem.
which is the common birthstone Of
both Miss Wilson and her finance,
marked Mr.. William G. McAdoo's
most recent gift. A few days before
he presented to Miss Wilson a soil
taire diamond ring Of medium size
hut great brilliancy.
The gift by MI. McAdoo's colleagues
in the Cabinet, consisted Of a dozen
service plates and a huge oval plat
ter of silver, each piece bearing the
monogram of Miss Wilson. The sill
yer set given by the Cabinet members
and their wives is of bright silver
with a high polish.
Members of the Senate committee
raised more than $1,000 for a bridal
gift. They decided upon a bracelet
of dull gold set with diamonds.
No formal entertaining preceded
the wedding. Mrs. Wilson's slow con-
valescence prompted the entire family
to relieve her as far as possible from
needless exertion.
At Miss Wilson's special request the
women guests, though wearing after
noon gowns, did not wear hats.
Several handsome presents have
been given to the bride by Secretary
McAdoo, one a string of pearls which
she wore with her wedding gown.
The engagement ring was a single
diamond set between sapphires. Mr..
McAdoo made a present of a gold
wrist watch incrusted with rose cut
diamonds, and shortly after the be-
trothal he made a gift Of a superb fire
opal set In a circlet of diamonds.

Miss Wilson's Wedding Gowns and
Some of the Gowns of
Her Trousseau


The wedding gown worn by Miss
Elean R. Wilson is made of ivory
white satin and trimmed with real
old point lace. This charming crea-
ton is the principal part of a trous-
e a made by Kurzman, Fifth avenue,
New York.
The bodice is softly draped with
satin which crosses in front and is
brought to a point below the should
ers, front and back. The V shaped
neck is finished with folds of soft
tulle. The long mousquetaire sleeves

lace is gracefully draped owe the

continues as a border to the long

yates to the side of the skirt at the

three and a half yards in length.
A cap effect bridal wreath, espe-
cially executed by Thurman with or
ange blossoms and long draped veil
was very effective.
Much interest is placed in the real
old point lace used on the gown. It
is a masterpiece and a work of art
in lace making. Unique in design
and perfect in execution, it may well
be said that this famous art treas
ure, which is a part of a world famous
collection, may justly find it's place
as an antique in a national collection.

Clerk Has interesting Data.
While Mercer County will not be
100 years old until 1888, the first books
in the Office of it's clerk contain many
interesting records written in long
hand and supposedly with a quill. The
records of today are neatly recorded
with a machine of the latest improved
type. Although the first deeds and
mortgages were written by hand, they
were inscribed with a neatness that
gives them the appearance of having
been engraved. The first clerk, Ralph
Fl. Shreve, was an expert penman. and
all the recording at that time was
done by him. The ink used must
have been excellent quality, as it is
well preserved and the records are
easily read.
