SPRAY.

va VIZ CscbiuS VI ASSSs <~1y PFctty Weu-
ding took place at the home OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Arthur l.. Robinson, when Mrs.
Robinson's brother, Seth W. Greenlaw,
and Miss Nellie II. Foster were married.
Rev. Mr.. Graham officiated.
The wedding invitations were out some
few weeks, the ceremony to be at s'oclock
As in most country places, the guests ar.
rived long before the appointed hour.
Mr.. Greeniaw was to come on the steamer
from Boston. The boa, being late that
evening there was a long wait, although
the hours we're spent pleasantly with
music and readings, yet there were some
ANXIOUS ones when 10 o'clock came and
still no bridegroom. Just before the clock
chimed II they were shouting through the
rooms "the bridegroom is here, the
bridegroom is here"
Shortly after, to the sound OF the we'd
dihg march, the bridal party entered.
Mrs. sylvester Dorr was matron OF honor
and Sylvester Dorr WAS best man. The
bride wore a beautiful gown OF old blue
cnsrmeuse satin, with trimmings OF
SILVER lace, and carried white roses. The
matron OF honor wore dress OF pink and
carried bouquet OF pinks. The room
was decorated with green and white
Christmas bells, and the ladies', in evening
gowns, made an attractive scene.
After congratulations, ice-cream, cake
aud punch were served, and the guests re-
turned to their several homes, each with a
little package OF wedding cake tied with
white ribbon. The bride was the recipi-
ent OF many beautiful gifts from friends
in Boston, Dorchester and Southwest Har-
bor.
Mr.. Greenlaw is having an attractive
littie bungalow built on the side OF the
hill, close by the home OF the wedding.
III. bride and groom have the best wishes
OF all for happy and prosperous future.

ORGANIZED PLOT TO
 RESIST CONSCRIPTION
Headquarters of Organization at Columbus, OhiO-Three Ar rests Were Made and Many Others Scheduled.

Columbus, Ohio, May 31.-A gigan- tic propaganda plot, with national headquarters in this city, organized to induce young men of military age all over the United States to refrain from registering for conscription next Tuesday, has been uncovered by state and government secret service agents, according to announcement made this afternoon by Gov. James M. Cox.
 Details of the plot, which was said to have extended into many states, be came known when United States mar shals raided a print shop and offices at III 1-2 South High street, where practically all of the propaganda lit erature was printed and distributed It was stated that the plot appeared to be well financed and we'll organ ized.
 Three men already are under ar rest in this city in connection with the plot and it was said further ar rests would be made both here and in other cities of Ohio and the middle west within the next few hours.
 Shortly after noon the raid was made on the print shop headquarters by federal and local officers. Harry E. Townsley, alleged to be the pro- prietor of the print shop, was ar rested in the raid.
 Earlier in the day Ammon Hen macy, who claims to be a graduate of Ohio State University, and Albert Valnisper, car builder, were arrest ed for distributing anti-conscription literature.

WINTER TRASH MAKES
 SPRING CONGREGATIONS

The accumulations of winter trash, dried out by the sun and breeze of springtime, have caused or aided most of the big conflagrations which have visited the South according to sta tistics presented by the Georgia Fire Prevention Society, which wacts are applicable to Arkansas or any other state.
 It is we'll known, says the Southern Construction News of Little Rock, quoting the Georgia authorities, that the $350,000,000 conflagration in San Francisco was in the month of April. While this was caused by an earth quake, most of the loss was due to the bad conditions of the city.
 If spring cleanup campaign could be established as national institu- ton it would save millions of dollars of the national wealth which is an- nually destroyed by fire.

ITALIANS CAPTURE 4
 TOWNS IN ALBANIA
Austrians Make Effort to Re- take Land Lost on CarsO- Gabrielle D'AnnunziO Was in the Thick of the Battle.

Rome, May 31, via London.-Ita- lian troops in Albania have occupied the villages of Cerevoda, Velisest, Ssoja and Cafal, the war office an nounced today.
 Bad weather interfered with oper- ations on the Trentino and Carnia fronts. In the area above Trieste there were no changes of importance.
 The Austrians, in attempting to re- capture San Giovanni, on the south ern portion of the Carso plateau, came into a terrible hand to hand fight with the Italians. Among the Italians was Gabrielle d'Annunzio, the poet and playwright, whose word and example animated the soldiers in the heroic struggle, which ended in the annihilation of the enemy.
 The official statement follows:
 "On the Trentino and Carnia fronts heavy rain and thick fog yesterday limited the activity of artillery, but favored patrols. North of the Tonale Ridge last night the enemy made a surprise attack on two advanced posts on Punta di Albiolos, but was discov- cred and driven back. The enemy also made two attacks on our lines on the northern side of Monte Pizzul and in the Rocolana valley, but failed com- pletely.
 "On the Julian front our artillery replied effectively to the enemy's fire

''WORLD MUST BE MADE
 SAFE FOR DEMOCRACY"

Little Rock, June 1.-The World must be made safe for Democracy" is the motto that is being emphasized in an address that has been sent to every sheriff of the state by W. S. Clifford, director of the National Council of Defense, and Gen. Lloyd England, chairman of the State Coun- cil.
 An appeal is being made to make next Tuesday a general holiday to encourage the registration of all elig- ibles, to "be celebrated in a serious spirit and kept as registration day only" and "as a conservation of the American people to service and to sacrifice"
 It is requested that at o'clock in the morning, the hour of opening, that all church and. fire bells should ring and whistles be blown. There should be bands in the vicinity of registra- tion booths, and parades to arouse the enthusiasm of the people Elab- crate and costly decorations, how ever, should be discouraged, although it is imperative that the registration booths be decorated with the national colors and emblems.

AFFAIRS IN SPAIN
 ARE MORE CONFUSED
Press Says Constitutional Guar
 antees to Be Suspended Count ROmanOes Says Situa-
 tiOn Hourly Becoming Grave.

Madrid, via Paris, May 31.-Ac- cording to the newspapers, the con- stitutional guarantees will be sus- pended again in two or three days.
 Former Premier Count Romanones has declared to an intimate friend that he regretted he was not invited to the mass meeting held by pro-ally sympathizers last Sunday. He said that if he had been present he would have maintained the declarations made in his letter to King Alfonso at the time he resigned He added that many Liberals, who were partisans of the allies, would also have liked to be present. Discussing the same subject with the correspondent of a French newspaper, Count Romanones said:
 '"The meeting was of enormous im- portance. It will perhaps exercise greater influence on foreign than home policies"
 Asked what he thought of the situ- ation in Spain, the former premier declared that it became more grave and more confused "every day and every hour of the day" Questioned as to whether he thought the cortez would be summoned, Count Roman ones smiled and answered.:
 "I am not too sure of that" Minister of the Interior Burels has prohibited all public manifestations relative to international questions as dangerous to the interests of the country in view of the important diplomatic negotiations now going on" Several such demonstrations had been planned in Madrid and other cities.
 The constitutional guarantees were suspended in Spain at the end of March following several strikes and serious disorders throughout the country. It was reported in Wash ington that a revolutionary move ment was in progress, but this was denied by the Spanish ambassador. The operations of the censorship have offset definite information regarding the recent internal situation in Spain. ~~>~>- and assaulting parties hindered the enemy in his efforts to strengthen himself in his new positions. In the Vodice area our artillery dispersed enemy troops which were massing for attack.
 "In Albania on Monday night our Albanian troops attacked enemy ir- regulars upon the upper reaches of the Osum River, 25 kilometres east of Berat. Heavy fighting continued throughout Monday and the following night. We occupied the villages of Cerekoda, Kelinest, Osoja and Gaia and successfully resisted regular troops sent to dislodge us."
