ROMANCE WIRES CROSS
AT 69TH'S BIG BAZAAR
And Woman Already Married
Gets Engagement Ring

Two huge cakes, one containing a
diamond engagement ring and the other
a wedding ring, of gold. held the place
Of honor last night at the Halloween
party Of the seth Regiment bazaar,
now being held in the armory, at Lex
ington Avenue and Twenty-sixth
Street.
A long line Of eager gusrdsmen, just
returned from the border, marched
out TO meet the cakes when they were
borne into the armory, with full mill
tary honors, by the uniformed girls
of the American Women's League for
Defence. The regimental band
PLAYED as the cakes were escorted TO
the league booth.
The cakes were cut BY Mrs. J. Van
dercook- Browne, their donor, one OF
the founders Of the league, and sold at
10 cents a alice. Somehow the romance
wires got crossed, and Mrs. Lyman j..
Fisher, already married, got the en-
gagement ring, while Charles X. West
phal very nearly swallowed the we'd
ding ring.
Mrs. Ella O'Gormsn Stanton sold
1000 tickets 20 the bazaar - the Dem
ocratc Club last night sno 900 more
at the Democratic meeting In the Ho-
tel Astor. 1t is expected that most
Of them will be used tomorrow at 2
o'clock, at which hour President Will
son will visit the bazaar before he
goes 20 Madison Square Garden. Miss
Lucy Cleveland's song, THE Soul Of
Old Glory" will be sung in the Presi-
dents honor. and 100 Roy Scouts will
take part in patriotic exercises, under
the direction Of Mrs. Laura b. Prisk.

WHITMAN DEFENDS
COLONEL HAYWARD
Defies Seabury to Show Where
Commissioner Has Failed

The attack made By Samuel Seabury,
Democratic candidate for Governor,
upon Colonel William Hayward, one of
the appointees of Governor Charles S.
Whitman on the Public Service Com
mission, was answered by the Governor
last night in three speeches one in
White Plains and two in Harlem. He
declared that all Mr.. Seabury has been
able to find out against any of the
Public Service Commissioners is that
they are all Republicans and that some
Of them were old friends of the Cow
ernor.
"Mr. Sesbury has not pointed out 10
me one act in Mr.. Hayward's entire
career that has not been honorable"
said Governor Whitman. "He has not
specified single instance where Mr..
HAYWARD has acted, either in personal
or an official capacity, in a manner that
was not to the best interest of the
state.
81 defy Mr.. Seabury TO name any
thing Mr. Hayward has done that he
himself would not have done had he
been a Public Service Commissioner.
Unless he is unable to do that / am
looking for another apology from mem
bers of his campaign committee"

a girl who can meet rather exacting
requirements he will receive $1,000.

The man is Albert +. Shore. treasurer

German descent and a native OF New
York. He is OF medium height, dark
complexion and dark curly hair. lie
has an engaging smile and he's bash

wealthy.
The girl must be about twenty -four
years old, in good health and have
fair education. She may be either
blonde or brunette, though the latter
will have a preference in the finals;
she may be buxom or petite. and 1t
doesn't matter il she hasn't cent.
Butterflies Not Wanted
But here is the catch: She must be
of a temperament that will match Mr.
Shores. which means that she must
be studious and thoughtful. Social
butterflies need not apply.
