The Toast of Today.

This is the happy day which politics and
statecraft, strife and diplomacy must give way to
romance in the Capital and the people rejoice
with their President. The administration has been
noted for the number of weddings that have had the
White House for setting, but though today's
event is not to take place in that historic mansion
it easily takes first importance because the Presi-
dent of the United States is to take his bride
gracious and charming woman Virginia's claim to
whom is disputed by Washington. If the senti-
ment of the people were consulted it would prob
ably be discovered that they would prefer White
House wedding in honor of Which the whole Capi-
tai might make holiday; but\ \po one can fail to
appreciate and respect the motives which dictated
a less imposing ceremony. to which only relatives
and personal friends bidden. 1t will be the
hope of all who have taken pleasurable interest
in the courtship of the Nations head that the
skies will smile the day that ne takes bride
and gives the country "6rst adyn1who has won
the esteem and affection of the citizens of the
Capital, where she has made her home. The toast
for today will be the health and happiness of Mr..
and Mrs Woodrow Wilson.

To Woodrow Wilson, President.

Captain, arise, and stand to thy full height!
How can we follow if thou dost not lead?
How can our soul the imperious summons heed
With single purpose and regenerate might
If thou chief witholdest from the fight?
Seei from faint hearts the clouds of doubt recede
Now call thy people in the hour of need
Behind thine upflung sword to defend the right
Dark the welter of the ungirdled sea
The future, and the past is far away,
The sword forgotten and the soul unfree
Captain, arise, and fling aside the pen
And bid US lift our foreheads to the day,
Victors or vanquished, but race of menl

BET RAISES QUESTION
AS TO NATURE TAXING
One Man Contends There is "a Blue
and White Striped
Animal.
By Victor Elliott.

WASHINGTON. Sept. If you
see "A blue and white animal in your
strOlls through the woods these hot
summer days. communicate with
Preston Gibson, Washington clubman.
He would like your information to de-
eide a bet. But the blue and white
animal you see must be real. 1t must
not be a creature of fancy which had
its birth in a prolonged session with
John Barleycorn.
Blue and white are Mr.. GibsOn's
favorite colors. During a discussion
recently with one of his club friends,
he Washington playwright and So
ciety man remarked hat he never
had seen an animal with blue and
white stripes. He further insisted
there never had been such a mon
s~trosity from the time Noah haved a
representative of the various species
from the big flood.
The club friend disputed Gibson's
statements, -whereupon. so the story
goes, a bet of siZeable proportions was
laid, and the hunt for the blue and
white striped animal was on No linn
it's have been placed on the territory
to search for the animal. Anyone
who wishes ma go to h wilds of
Africa Or TO the ice fields at the poles
TO obtain an animal possessing blue
and white stripes, provided they be
not more than two inches wide.
Mr.. Gibson's fellow clubmen. who
took the bet, last was reported con-
sulting current and ancient author
tiles in an effort TO locate a reference
to a four-fOoted creature whose coat
is emblazoned in two of the national
colorS of Uncle Sam.
official announcement of the wager
was made by Mr.. GibSon'S publicity
agent. 1t read:

fame several years ago, by winning
bet of $1,000 that Charles Street. then
of the Nationals, could catch a bal
