Claude Callan in The Fort Worth
Star-Telegram: There is something
sad about wedding. The young bride
groom Is leaving home in which he
into one in which he never will have
his way. Although his parents do not
go through the formality of giving him
away at the altar, they know well
be a son-in-law to another woman,
while to them he is nothing but a son.
There he comes, with another man
holding to his arm. 1t looks as IL he
might have made an attempt to escape,
and that the strong best man captured
him and brought him back. He Is as
happy as he is nervous, and so trustful
that he has no fear for the future.

The bill was reconsidered over their protests. and defeated by vote of Il to 20. The senate then recon sidered the motion by which the bill failed to pass and laid that motion On the table, effectually killing the only guaranty bill in the senate.
 The fight started after Senator Ed nsondson had moved a reconsider ation. There was little argument and the roll call was ordered on the pass age or rejection of the bill. There was no objection to this at first, but Senator Duty asked that the bill be read third time. The reading clerk lead the bill by title, and added the enacting clause. President Daven- port then ordered the roll call.
 Senator Greenhouse went into the middle of the center isle, and point ing his finger at the president. de- manded in as loud voice as he could muster to know if the bill was to be railroaded through without a third reading. He was informed by the reading clerk that the bill had been read a third time. President Daven- port ruled that if the clerk stated it had been read, and the journal showed that, it was all that was necessary.
 After this ruling Senator Great house changed the range of his finger until it took fin the reading clerk, and asked him. point blank, # the bill had been read a third time. He was given an affirmative reply, and Senator Greenhouse continued to demand his rights. while the roll call went on. When Senator Cabiness was reached he demanded the right to ex- plain his vote, and when President
