MRS. ASTOR WON'T
Be MARRIED TODAY
CHANGE IN LAWS OF MAINE UP.
SETS ALL ARRANGEMENTS
FOR TOoAYs CEREMONY.

Bar Harbor Me-, June 19.-Mrs.
John Jacob Astor, who was to have
! been married here tomorrow to Mr.
William K. Dick, has found it neces-
sary, on account of a mistake about
procuring the license, to postpone the
ceremony.
| Mrs. AstOr consulted an attorney in
New York in regard to non-residents
taking out marriage licenses and he
informed her that it was possible for
non-residents to get a certificate and
be married the same day. This was
according to the statutes of Maine in
1909. In 1913 that law was changed
and it now requires that non-residents
file their certificate five days before
they can be married. Mrs. Astor was
informed of the change today. The
marriage will not take place today.
All the plans of the couple will have
to be changed as the marriage inten-
ton, provided the ceremony takes
place in Maine, will have to be signed
by Mr.. Dick and Mrs. Astor both. Mr..
Dick will arrive here tomorrow and
cannot sign the certificates until then.
He therefore cannot be married until
Thursday.
Mrs. Astor was so taken by surprise
that she has as yet made no definite
plans for the marriage.
