BUOY-CARHART NUPTIALs.
Cecil County Red Cross Nurse Be-
comes Bride OF Medical
Officer.

The following account of the
Buoy-Carhart nuptials is from the
Trench and Camp, published at
Camp Sheridan, Montgomery, Ala
bama. The bride is one of Cecil
county's popular young ladies, and
is the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. E.
D. Carhart, of Zion. She had been
at Camp Sheridan since the first
week in January of this year, and
was Supervisor of Nurses at the U.
S. Base Hospital at, the Camp:
A very happy romance came to it's
elimination Saturday evening, June
1, at s o'clock when Lieutenant
Edward C. Buoy, Camp Medical Sup
ply officer, at Camp Sheridan and
Miss Josephine Carhart, one of the
Red Cross nurses at the Base Hos
pital were married at the. new. Red
Cross building at Camp Sheridan,
Montgomery, Ala.
The wedding was of special inter-
est as it was the first which has been
soIemnized at Camp Sheridan since
it was established, and also because
of the popularity of both young peo-
ple. The Red Cross building was
artistically decorated for the happy
occasion with southern moss, lerns,
garden flowers, and American and
Red Cross flags, and the base hos
pital orchestra rendered beautiful
music. The bridal party entered to
the strains of the wedding march
from Lohengrin. The bride was at
tended by Miss Elosie Schlund, the
head nurse at the base hospital as
maid of honor. She wore a be-
coming costume of white crepe de
chine and lace and white Georgette
crepe hat, faced with pale blue. She
carried bouquet of pink and white
sweet peas.
The bride entered with Major
Reicht of the hospital staff by whom
she was given in marriage. She was
a picture of girlish grace and charm
in her wedding gown of white Geor-
gette crepe and lace, with veil OF
tulle arranged cap effect, with sprays
of orange blossoms, and carried
bouuet of Ophelia roses and swan
sonia.
Lieutenant Buoy was attended by
Captain George c. Shockley as best
man and the impressive ceremony
was performed by Major W. A.
Atkinson, chaplain of the 134th
Field Artillery, and the ring service
was used. The scene was most
interesting one as the young couple
stood surrounded by the hospital
personnel, including about sixty
doctors, and about seventy-five Red
Cross nurses, wearing their snowy
white uniforms. Immediately after
the ceremony a reception was held
at the Nurses Quarters, and refresh
ments were served.
Lieutenant Buoy and his charm
ing bride met for the first time, since
coming to Montgomery. Lieutenant
Buoy's former home is in Erie, Pa,
and he came to Montgomery several
months ago as Camp Medical Supply
officer. He has made a host OF
warm friends who extend to him
sincere congratulations,
The bride is a girl of charming
personality and attractiveness and
has also made many warm friends In
this city. Her home is in Maryland.
Lieutenant Buoy and his bride have
taken an apartment on Holcombe
street and will go to housekeeping.
Miss Minnie Carhart, the BRIDES
sister, was present at the wedding

On Fourth Big Loan

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2s-payments

pouring into the Treasury at the rate
OF $3.50, 100000 a day and several hun
dred millions Gre expected morrow,
the last day given banks to report their
loan subscriptions, together with initial
payments.
So great is the task before the banks
that many probably will not be able to
complete their reports in tha allotted
time, thus delaying the Federal Reserve
banks IN making UP their totals which
VIII show the exact amount Of the sub
scrlptlons TO the loan. Efforts of the
Liberty Loan publicity bureau to-dav
to obtain approximate figures on sub
scrlptions by cities were unavailing.
The first block of Treasury ccrtifi-
Gates of Indebtedness issued in advance
of the fourth loan falls due tomorrow.

June IS. Many banks will pay their Lib
erty Loan instalments tomorrow with
these certificates.

District Attorney Swami will start
an inquiry to-day into the alleged
brutality of the detectives who ar
rested Vincent Gaffney. He will ask
Chief Magistrate McAdoo to conduct
the inquiry. Incidentally the Distr ct
Attorney said that even if Gaffncy had
been beaten, he could not convict the
person who did it, because Gaffney
has told two different stories about
how he came by the marks upon him
and no jury would believe nim."
Mr.. Swami said man who worked

was operating in connection with it.
"The first criminal job over there
was on pay day, when they cracked

was doing the trucking. Gaffney and
his gang remained about three weeks
with the Brooklyn firm, during which
time they committed assaults on fell
low employees.
"pohcemen were trailing Gaffney
while he was working at Bay Ridge,
and they followed him into a saloon in
the neighborhood. Gaffney was seen IL
beckon to the barkeeper as he passed
through the saloon into a rear room.
and it was thought the barkeepcr
passed to him a pair of goggles and a
blond mustache, which permitted him
to return through the saloon unde-
tected by the policemen.
about two weeks ago Gaffney and
his gang robbed a gambling house N
River Street, Hoboken The $4,000
which they obtained was divided amona

these authorizations were voted by Con-
gress for departments TO contract to ex-
pend, and most Of the eight billions was

RACE WAR NEXT WARNS
JAPANESE STATESM AN
Colored Peoples Will Demand the
Same Treatment as Whites, Mr.
Ozaki Declares.

Toxic. Dec / Correspondence of The
Associated Press Belief that the next
war viii be the outcome of race pre- ludices
Is expressed by Nukio Oak formerly
Minister of Justice and q leading member
Of the Constitutional arty. Mr. O2ak
said that III h,S opinion, the colOred races,
which steadily were developing their
civilization, would demand finally the
same treatment a. the white races. and
that the result would be an armed col
lision.
Mr. Osaki recommended that at the
Peace Conference, Japan acting on be
half of all the As.atlc races should intro
duce the racial and population questions
for consideration, and if possible, secure
a solution.
In country like Japan where the
population Is increasing with alarming
rapidIty he said IT was but natural that
the surplus population should try to
obtain an outlet even by resOrting To
arms From Japan standpoint, said
Mr. Osaki, the racial or population ques-
tions were more important than President
Wilson's fourteen points as laid down
for basis OF Germany S surrender These
racial questions, he said, concerned the
future OF millions of souls III Asia.
Mr.. Osaki warned the Japanese not
10 develop the German system of state
organization winch III the present war had
proved to BE- a mere machine for DESTROY
ing civilization and for trampIing under
loot the rights ot other nations and
peoples
On the question Of Japan's occupation
Of the German South Sea Islands, Mr.
Osakl declared that the United States
should dlsmantle her forts in the Philip
pines and Hawall, and that this would be
more important for japan than the taking
over Of the South Sea Islands.
