WEDDING OF PRESIDENT WILSON

Simple Ceromcly In Brides Homo IN
Washington Sat- ay Night-Party
Left by Rusc.
The wedding of President Wilson and
Mrs. Edith Boiling Gait took place at
the bride Is home in Washington at s.
30 Saturday night.
Because the hour of the event was
known to comparatively few persons,
there was not large crowd in the vi.
cinity of the brides home, although a
large police guard had been provided.
All arrangements for the wedding cere-
mony were carried out perfectly, the
President arriving at his bride s home
soon after O'Clock and the remainder
or the wedding party, which numbered
less than 30, following soon after. The
ceremony was begun, as had been ar
ranged, at $50 O'Clock and was follow
ed by buffet luncheon. Mrs. Wilson
was married in the travelling gown
which she wore to the train. Neither
the President nor Mrs. Gait had any
attendants, and there were no ushers
or flower girls. Neither the army, the
navy nor the diplomatic corps was rep
iNoNA'Nu1 anu lhC OONublOH was tSScH-
tally what the couple had wished it to
be-a home wedding. The floral deco
rations were very elaborate.
Soon after 10 O'Clock the President
and Mrs. Wilson entered waiting
White House automobile and motored
to Alexandria, Va, across the Potomac,
to take their private car there and
avoid a crowd at the railroad station in
Washington. After the President and
his bride had departed Secretary
Tumulty made this formal statement on
the ceremony
"The wedding was marked with
simplicity. 1t was just such wedding
as might have taken place in the home
of the humblest American citizen.'
The ruse by which the wedding party
got away to Alexandria was complete.
When the White House automobile
pulled away from Mrs. Wilson s house,
lines of police blocked pursuit in all the
adjoining streets. At the union station
the presidential entrance was fully
lighted and lines of police were spread
all about. Those who were attracted
to the railroad station by the show of
preparation were disappointed while
the President and Mrs. Wilson were
speeding to the station across the
river, 10 miles away.

STATE WANTS PRESENT.
Enters Suit to Get Gratuity Paid by
Liquor Dealers in Rutland.

Papers have been served in a suit
brought against the city of Rutland and
Treasurer Will L. Davis in which the
state seeks to recover $4,000
claimed to have been paid to the city
by liquor licensees The state law pro
vides that all license money shall be
turned over to the state.
Last spring the license commissioners
charged the minimum fee for licenses,
the total amounting to $4,000, which
was turned over to the state, but the
check was never cashed. The licensees
then made the city present of $3.50,
the difference between the minimum fee
and the sum charged last year for IL
censes. The state claims that this "pres-
ent" should be forwarded to the state
treasurer.

The Vermont State Grange which
closed its annual meeting in Burlington
Dec. 16, Notwithstanding the suggestion
made by State Master Cady in his annual
address Tuesday, did not adopt resolu-
referendum measure, it being the

ton was adopted expressing a desire

ton through its congressional commit
tee for the purpose of supporting the
Susan B. Anthony amendment to the
federal constitution. The resolution
adopted requests the members Of the
Vermont congressional delegation to
vote for the amendment. The amend
ment also asks that the Democratic
and Republican parties embody declara-
tions for suffrage in state and nation
al platforms.

port to the projected apple survey and
cooperation with the plan as outlined
by the Greater Vermont association.
1t was voted to put the control of
$4,000 of the permanent fund in the
hands Of the executive committee

rested with the treasurer. State Lectur-
err E. H. Hallett of st. Johnsbury was
given 500 to use in his work. The

al lines.

tive committee.

many's disavowal of responsibility for
the sinking of the Arabic. with accom-
panying assurances that the possibility
of another such incident had been pre-
cluded through stringent instructions
to submarine commanders. was regard
ed by officials of the Washington gov
ernment today as one of the most graf
flying results secured by American di
plomacy since the European war be-
gan.
The crisis in the relations between
the United States and Germany is re-
garded as passed. All that now remains
to the Arabic case is the fixing of the
indemnity. That phase will be taken
be named between Secretary Lansing
and the German ambassador.
The next feature of the issue to he
saken up will be the Lusitania case
Secretary Lansing indicated toda,
that the settlement of the Arabic case
had cleared the way for the dispatch

WILSON IN FAVOR
OF GOOD DEFENSE
President Says Whole Country
Is Convinced Uncle Sam
Should Be Better Pre-
pared for War.

Wilson outlined his attitude toward the
national defense question today to the
new advisory board of the navy. He
believed he said, the whole nation was
convinced that we ought to be pre-
pared. not for war. bilt for defense,
and very adequately prepared"
The president received the members
OF the board, headed by Thomas a..
Edison, after their preliminary con-
Terence with Secretary Daniels and
navy officials. The board later went
with Secretary Daniels to the navy
proving grounds at Indian Head, Nd.
on an inspection tour.
There is very little that / can say
to you," President Wilson said. "ex-
cept to give you a very cordial well
come and to express my very great
pleasure in this association of laymen
with the government. But ! do want
to say this:
81 think the whole nation is con-
vinced that we ought to be prepared.
not for war, but for defense, and very
adequately prepared: and that the
preparation for defense is not merely
a technical matter, 1T is not matter
that the army and yN;alone can take
care of. but IL matter in which we, must
have the cooperation Of the best brains
and knowledge of the country outside
the official services Of the government
as well as inside.
For my part, l. feel that 1t is. only
in the spirit of a true, democracy that
we get together toElend such voluntary
aid, the sort of aid that comes from
interest, from knowledge OF the va
ried circumstances that are involved
in handling a nation.
