WILSON'S CALLS
DELAY DINNERS
lnquisitive Delivery Boys Wait
Outside Gait Home with
Provisions

Washington. Oct 28.-hfter a strenu-
Gus morning OF executive business
President Wilson spent this afternoon
motoring with his hancee, Mrs. Norman
Gait. They went alone. except FOR the
chauffeur and the inevitable escort OF
Secret Service men.
Washington housewives srs complain
Ing that the Presidents calls at the
Gait home delay their dinners. Deliv-
cry boys with wagonloads Of urgently
" needed provisions are attracted by
tho throngs OF nursemaids, school
children and stro.srs waiting for Il
glimpse Of the couple ma they start on
their afternoon ride. and The deliveries
are invariably late
The crowds were disappointed this
afternoon. They had waited long and
were getting restless, when Secret
Service man sprang up the brownstone
steps. But it was not the President
and Mrs. Gait who came out, but Mrs.
Boiling, the mother Of the bride-elect,
and one Of Mrs. Galts sisters.
Before long, however. the limousine,
with its conspicuous coat-of-arms on
the door, came back. and the President
and Mrs. Gait appeared The President
wore a dark gray suit and a gray fedora
hat Mrs. Gait was clad in dark red
velvet redingote of modish cut. finished
at the throat and cuffs and about the
bottom with bands Of black fur. IL fell
below the knees, and showed a black
chiffon gown. the scalloped hem Of
which was made of soft black crepe de
chine. Mrs. Cats hat was Of the
toque shape, made Of black velvet,
higher on the left than the right side
and tipped a bit ger the right ear a
fancy bit OF plumage being placed
jauntily little back from the front
and on the right side. Instead OF the
usual cluster of orchids sent each day
BY the President, Mrs. Gait wore few
sprays Of lilies-of-the-valley.
The conviction that the President will
use the Mayhower for his honeymoon
trip has steadily grown OF late and is
strengthened by the fact that the
Presidential yacht has been taken 10
the Norfolk Navy Yard for general
overhauling. The Presidents suite will
undergo minor changes, and other parts
Of the boat are also being refurnished.
Tonight the President. Miss Wilson,
Miss Helen Woodrow Bones, DR.. Gray
son. the Presidents aid and physician,
and one or two other guests formed the
small group which dined In the state
dining room. The large Grecian urns
which stand between the pillars in the
entrance hall of the White House were
filed with luxuriant ferns, and palms
stood before the gold mirrors which
flank either side

General Funston, commanding the
United States troops on the Mexican
border. that the entire mobile army
would be placed at his disposal u
recesserv. There are about lOOUO
men availabls for this duty.
The Secretary took this action after
=, conference with Senator Ashurst. OF
Arizona, who represented that there
uas grave danger OF casualties at
Douglas il the present plans OF the
Villistas are carried out. A large army
is reported preparing for an attack
on Aqua Prieta. just across the inter-
national boundary. General Gales, the
Carranza commander there, undoubt-
edlv will resist the attack, and
furious battle is expected. Senator
Ashurst believes the population o.
Douglas. numbering 10000, Is seriously
endangered.
II is understood that a part OF the
Carranza army which will cross Texas
and Arizona TO invade Sonora VIII go
TO reinforce Gales. Senator Ashurst
Is said TO have told Secretary Lansing
to-day that it was mistake to permit
the passage of Carranza troops through
American territory.
Although the State Department has
