WASHINGTON, April f.--Secretary
of State Bryan, who used to be called
the Commoner. and believed in dol
lar dinners. is changing his ways. He
has told the house committee on APP
preparations that it is bad form for
him to ride round in a carriage with
out footman perched on the box. y
Mr.. Bryan said that for thirty years
his predecessors in office had assign
ed department messenger TO act
as coachman He thought this prac-
tice was un-American and undemo
cratic. and that congress ought to
make an appropriation for q coach
man for the secretary of state. Mr.
Bryan also thought the coachman
should have an assistant , that IS
to say, a footman.
Committeeman suggested to Mr..
Bryan that he might have an auto
mobile, but the great Commoner
spurned the suggestion. II am en-
urely satisfied with the carriage"
said he.
Secretary Bryan explained that
whenever he used the United States
messenger as footman he kept
accord of the time. deducted the
amount IT represented from the mes
senger's salary account and paid this

A very delightful and interesting

A very delightful and interesting
romance that had its inception a
couple of years ago in the state Of
Michigan, eliminated yesterday
afternoon in the marriage of Mr..
Howard H. Fields and Miss Trina
Rodi. The young lady arrived on
the steamer Mariposa, accompanied
by Mrs. C. r. Fields, of Minneapolis,
the mother of the groom. Mr.. Fields
is a mining engineer of considerable
note, who for time was located
at Calumet, where Miss Rodi con-
tentedly resided. Before the young
effete East and penetrate into the
wilds of the then but little known
White river and Shushanna section
of Alaska, he persuaded the young
lady that she was absolutely and
completely necessary to his futul
happiness. So with light heart he
set forth on his northern mission
and when he came from the interior
a couple of weeks ago it was with
the intention of meeting his future
wife at Cordova. The ceremony
was performed Tuesday afternoon at
5 o'clock at the home of r. r.
Stewart, and was witnessed by few
intimate friends. Rev. Ziegler Off
ciated and after the ceremony a
wedding dinner was served. Mr..
and Mrs Fields later received the
congratulations and well wishes of a !
large number of acquaintances and
friends. They will leave on the
morning train for Mccarthy, from
which point they will go by team to
the Shushanna, where Mr.. Fields
has fitted up a comfortable cabin
and will enjoy summer with his
very pleasing and attractive bride.
Mrs. G. r. Fields went outside on
the steamer this morning and VIII
return to her home at Minneapolis.
