Weatherwax Brothels ouartette to
Be First Number on woman's
Study Club Program.


The Bemidji Woman's Study club
will present the first number of its
lyceum course at the Methodist
church tomorrow evening. ~ 81
The Weatherwax Brothers Quar-
tette will be the first number. Tick
cts are selling good and the required
number to guarantee ell the numbers
of the winter program have been Sc
cured. 2t.:.s.. ::
The Weatherwax Brothers Quar-
tette has been in the public eye for
some time, ever since the time they
appeared in the Mckinley campaign
of go. .-s~*: .~.
Services Sought Everywhere.
Everywhere their services have
been sought. They have standing
invitation to make records for the
Victor company whenever their Ly-
ceum route brings tn EN- into New
Jersey. :. :, =:
On Jan. II, 1915, the Weatherwax
Brothers Quartette sang and played
before the $4,000 men at one of the
great Billy Sunday meetings in
Philadelphia. They had met Mr..
Sunday and some of his assistants at
the big Winona, Ind, Chautauqua
Assembly last summer, at which time
the invitation to sing at the Phila-
delphia gathering was received.
Forty-six thousand hands applauded
their Philadelphia appearance. It is
probable that no male quartette in
American history has. sung before
such large indoor crowd.
Appear in Trumpet Quartette.
In addition to their local music,
the Weatherwax Brothers appear as
trumpet quartette that is the delight
of all. In the preparation of this
feature of their programs vast
amount of painstaking care was ex-
ercised, with the result that it has
instantly commanded the admiration
of all lovers of rich, heroic music.
Trumpets are comparatively seldom
used in this country and it is nov
city and treat to hear them, es-
pecially when we'll played. The
trumpets used by the Weatherwax
Brothers were made especially for
them by Frank Holten & Co., Chi
cago.
Two Readers in Company.
Unlike most male quartettes there
are two readers in the Weatherwax
company. Lester in Pathos" and
"William in Comedy is the way one
newspaper recently put it. All Sc
lections and readings are of a high
order-a feature which cannot be
over-emphasized in any company.
During their program in connec-
tion with some of the Riley selec-
tions presented, the incident of the
visit of the Weatherwax Brothers to
Riley's home is related. It is no
exception for their audiences to burst
into storms of applause at the men
ton of Riley's name. Mr.. Riley re-
ceived the Weatherwax Brothers on
the occasion of their visit to Indian
apolis most cordially. :- -.

WILSON
TO 0WEDDEsCENDlNT
OF INDIAN PRINCESS
Announcement is Made at White
House of Engagement to Mrs. Nor
man Gait, Widow Of Jeweler.
BR1DE.T0-BE OF 9th GENERAT10N
OF ROLFE AND P0CAHONTA6
Wedding to. Take Place in Washing
ton; Will Bring First Touch Of
Royal Indian Blood to Capitol. .

Washington, Oct. Woodrow
Wilson, president: of the United
States, announced last night his en-
gagement to Mrs. Norman Gait. Of
Washington. The date of the we'd
ding has not been set, but it will take
place in December at the home Of
the bride-elect.
The brief announcement from the
White House made by Secretary Tu-
multy, came as surprise to official
Washington, but to number of in
innate friends it has long been ex-
pected. From this circle came the
story of friendship, the culmina-
tion of which was viewed as a happy
turn in the troubled and lonely life
of the nations chief executive.
" Very Happy, Says Bride-to-Be.
II am very happy" was the only
remark Mrs. Gait would make today.
Mrs. Calf is a real American of
royal blood, being a descendant of
Pocahontas, Indian princess. Mrs.
Gait is proud of the fact that she
is descendant of the ninth genera
tion from the marriage of John
ROlfe and POcahOntas.
Pocahontas will bring the White
House the first touch of Indian royal
blood.
President Davidson of the San
Diego exposition asked the president
today to attend the exposition on his
honeymoon.
Met Year Ago.
1t was Miss Margaret Wilson and
her cousin, Miss Bones, who drew
Mrs. Gait into the White House CTR
Gle. They met her first in the early
autumn Of last year and were So
much attracted by her;>4thats. they
sought her out more and more fre-
quently and the friendship between
them ripened into an affectionate in
timacy.
Mrs. Gait spent month this sum-
mer at Cornish, as the house guest of
the presidents eldest daughter. 1t
was through this intimacy of his
daughter and cousin that the presi-
dent had an opportunity to meet and
know Mrs. Gait One of the most in
teresting facts about the engagement,
indeed, as told by friends, is that the
presidents daughters should have
chosen Mrs. Gait for their admiration
and friendship before their father
did.
Wife of Jeweler.
Mrs. Gait is the widow of a we'll
known business man of Washington,
who died eight years ago, leaving
jewelry business that still bears his
name. She has lived in Washington
since her marriage in 1896. She is
about 38 years old and was Miss
Edith Boiling, born in Wytheville,
Va, where her girlhood was spent
and where her father William H.
Boiling, was prominent lawyer.
Mr.. Wilson is in his 59th year. His
wife died a little more than q year
ago.
Capable Woman.
In the circle of people who have
known Mrs. Gait for many years she
has been regarded as an unusual
beauty, gifted with natural charm.
Friends speak of her as being con-
stantly sought out as a delightful
companion, remarking especially on
her thoughtfulness and quick capac-
ity for anything she chose to under
take.
