Special to The Tribune.
St. Louis, Aug. 6.-Suffering from a
fractured spine from which injury it
is said he cannot recover, J. ]. Mckay
of Kennett, Mo-, was married tonight
at St. Luke's Hospital to Miss
Wathena Ranney, Of Cape Girardeau.
The ceremony was performed beside
the bed upon which Mckay lay help
less. Nurses and physicians were
the witnesses to the ceremony which
made the beautiful girl the wife Of a
man who, if he lives, will be a cripple
all his life.
Mckay was injured last Friday
while swimming at Kennett. In div
ing into the st. Francois River his
head struck the bottom, and compan-
ions took the unconscious man from
the water. The medical examination
revealed the serious nature Of the in
jury, and it was decided to rush Nc
Kay to st. Louis.
Miss Ranney, who is the daughter
Of the late r. G. Ranney, Judge of
Cape Girardeau Common Pleas Court,
accompanied Mckay. At the hospital
the patient grew worse, and it was
feared his death was a matter only of
hours. Miss Ranney then preached
the question Of their marriage. At
her solicitation friends obtained a IL
cense for her and summoned a min
ister. After the ceremony Mrs. Nc
Kay remained with her husband until
late tonight, when she retired to her
room at a nearby Hotel.
Miss Ranney is one Of the most
popular girls Of Cape's society circles.
She has been teaching in several pub
lie schools, and was on the Broadway
School staff last term. She met her
husband while attending the Normal,
about four years ago, and since that
time the two have been seen together
frequently. Her father, the late Judge
Ranney, was considered one of the
most capable judges Of the Common
Pleas Court.
The bridegroom is the son of Vir-
gil Mckay, one Of the leading law
yers Of Kennett. He has been attend
ing a medical college in Tennessee
since leaving the Normal and was
about to receive his diploma. He has
been spending his vacation with his
parents in Kenneth.
Last Friday afternoon the young
student and several friends went out
swimming. Misjudging the depth of
the water, the young man dived from
the bank into the river, striking his
head on the bottom. His friends car
ried him home after rescuing him from
drowning, and the physician found
that he had suffered q fracture of the
spine. He is paralyzed completely,
and little hope is held out for his re-
covery.
When he was taken to st. Louis
I Friday afternoon Miss Ranney &C
companied him to the hospital and has
been at his bedside constantly, remain
ing away only long enough to sleep
and recover from the daily strain of
the suspense, hoping that youth will
successfully combat death and restore
her husbands health.
The news of the wedding came as a
great surprise to the relatives Of Miss
Ranney. They did not know that the
marriage had been performed until in
formed by a reporter for The Tribune
night.

ALLEGIANCE is PLEDGED
TO THE ALLIED CAUSE
New Government of Portugal An
nounces Recent Revolution Was
Not in Interest Of Germany.

Allegiance of the new government Of
Portugal was pledged to the allied
cause today in a statement issued at
the Portuguese legation. which also
announced statements that the recent
revolution was brought about in the
interests of Germany. The statement
follows:
Efforts are being made in certain
quarters to suggest the idea that the
recent revolution in Portugal was car
ried out in the interest of the monarchy
with the assistance of Spanish and
other foreign elements and that it was
essentially movement in favor of
Germany and against the allies.
There is not scintilla of truth in
any one OF these suggestions. They
are merely one more device of the all
pervading German propaganda intend
ed to show dissension among the allies.
Their character can easily be appraised
by noting the quarters in which they
are put forth.
tThe foreign policy of the new Por-
tugueSe government rests and will con-
tinue to rest on the maintenance of the
alliance with England in hearty corpora
ton with the other allies.
THE hostile attitude of the German
press toward the new situation in Por-
tugal and the bombardment Of the Por-
tuguese port of Funchal by a German
submarine. directly the success of the
revolution became known. clearly show
the fiimsy nature of the German propa-
ganda's latest strategem.'
