FIRST WHITE HOUSE WEDDING.

The first White House wedding in
which the daughter of a President fig
ured as the heroine was performed 81
years ago this evening, when Miss
Maria Hester Monroe, the youngest
daughter of President James Monroe,
became the bride of Samuel Law
renee Gouverneur. The bride was only
II, and was very pretty and charm
ing as she stood on an American
eagle which had been woven into a
rug for the occasion, before Rev. Mr..
Hanley, who was clad in knee
breeches, as was the bridegroom.
Only the members of the families and
a few intimate friends witnesses the
ceremony not even the members of
the cabinet being invited. 1t was
planned to follow the honeymoon of
the happy pair with a succession of
balls and other festivities in honor of
the young bride, but Commodore De-
catur was killed in a duel soon after
the wedding, and Washington was
plunged into mourning. Simple as
the wedding was, it is related that
President Monroe spent over 800
for the candles used to illuminate the
White House on that occasion.

Here let them land and teach the
holy therns such q lesson In ferocious
warfare as they will not forget for
countless ages. It had not been my
intention to be distracted from the
main issue Of the campaign, but we
must settle this attack with the therns
once and for all OR there will be no
peace for us while our feet remains
near Dor, and our chances OF ever re-
turning to the outer world will be
greatly minimized.'
Kantos Kan saluted and turned to
deliver my instructions to his waiting
aides. In an Incredibly short space Of
time the formation Of the battleships
changed in accordance with my COM
mands, the ten that were to guard the
way to Omean were speeding toward
their destination, and the troop ships
and conveys were closing up in prepa-
ration for the squirt through the lane.
The order full speed ahead was CIV
en-, the feet sprang through the air
like coursing greyhounds, and in an
other moment the slips Of the enemy
were in full few. They formed a
ragged line as far as the eve could
reach in either direction and about
three ships deep.

Round and round in each others

they presented difficult target for

Broadside after broadside they deliv-
