The above item of news will be of much interest to the readers of the Sentinel, the majority of whom have the pleasure, of an acquaintance with the bride.
 Dr. Brothers, Pastor of the First Unitarian Church at Cam bridge. who performed the cere- mony, is married to a sister of the brides father. MT. F. E. Bronson, father of the bride was represented at the wedding by his cousin, Rev. Charles E. Bron- son, of the First Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia, by whom the bride was given away.
 Following the ceremony the couple left over the Canadian Pa cific for Vancouver, B. c. They will sail North on the Princess Mary leaving Vancouver on June 19, and will visit the brides par ents in Wrangell, and possibly make a trip to other points in Alaska. After their honeymoon they will be at home at Seattle.

She is a graduate of the Sargent School in Boston and for the past three years has been physical director of the Brearley School in New York City. Her father, MT. F. E. Bronson, is collector of customs at this port, a position which he has held a number of years.

 pr. Buschmann, after his grad uation from the Medical Depart ment of the University of Penn sylvania several years ago, began the practice of medicine in Se- attle, and in a comparatively short time has become one of the well known physicians of that city.

Sergeif island. He was also au- thorized to have whatever work done that may be necessary in order to get the field in proper condition for the landing of air planes. The authorization also states that the field is to be marked with a cross made of cheese cloth 50 X 50 feet and two yards in width, the cross to be placed in the center of the best part of the field for landing. A fire is also to be lit showing the direction of the wind. Sergeant Mclaughlin is further authorized to sign for and receive all Gov ernment supplies shipped to this point for use in the special air plane flight to Nome and return.
 It will be of interest to the readers to know that this special flight from New York to Nome will be a much more difficult flight than crossing the ocean. Captain Douglas, in answer to a question propounded by the Sen- tinel reporter, stated that the purpose of this flight is not to establish a permanent route, but merely as demonstration of what can be done, and that it is not unlikely that this special flight will, however, be the means of starting something that will be permanent.
 This special flight will start from New York July 5 with Cap tain St. Clair Street. in command of the flight. The flight will be made from New York to Chicago direct, and from that city through the States of Wisconsin, Minne- sota and North Dakota. From North Dakota the flyers will cross into Canadian air, flying through the Provinces of Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. The last two landings before reaching Wrangell will be at St. George and Hazelton, B. C.
 If all goes well the flyers will reach Wrangell on the third or fourth day after leaving New York. It is expected that the planes will reach Wrangell in about two hours after leaving Hazelton. The next landing af- ter leaving Wrangell will be Whitehorse, Yukon Ter. From Whitehorse the flight will be to Dawson. The landing places be- tween Dawson and Nome will be Rampant, Gibbon and Golofnin.
 The Canadian government is giving the U. s. War Department its most hearty cooperation in this special flight. Captain Douglas is being accompanied on his trip to Nome by Captain H. A. Le- Rover of the Canadian Air Board, of Ottau,a

WARREN G. HARDING As Seen By His Friends

Warren G. Harding, United States senator from Ohio, was born on his grandfather's farm, where his father then resided, just outside the village of Bloom ing Grove, Morrow County, Ohio, November ?, 1865. He was the eldest of eight children, some of whom have achieved more than ordinary distinction; one in medi- cine, one as a public instructor, and one as a missionary in a for eien field.
 He is the son of George T. Hard ing, then the young village doctor, who found no night too dark and dreary and no journey too long to travel the almost impossible roads of that day to go to the relief of a suffering patient, however poor and unable to pay for the service rendered.
 The Hardings are of good old Colonial stock, coming originally from Scotland, settling first in Connecticut, removing later to the Wyoming Valley, Pa., where some of them were massacred and others fought in the Revolu- tionary War. The mother of War ren, Phoebe Dickerson, was de- scended from an old time Holland Dutch family, the Van Kirks; so that in Warren G. Harding is found the blending of the blood of the hardy Holland Dutch and the fearless, alert, and liberty loving Scotch. The country round abont was mostly woodland when Warren was born. His grand. father owned a small tract of land and was neither better nor worse off than his neighbors. They were all engaged in cutting away the timber and transform ing a primitive forest into culti- vated farms. In those early days every child must contribute his share of toll in overcoming the obstacles of nature in this trans forming process. As Warren grew up, he learned to fell the trees, chop wood, split rails, plant and hoe corn, and do all things incident to farm life when crops were raised between roots and stumps, and the labors of the farm were performed by hand. He early acquired the habit of in- dustry.
 No fabled goddess lowered over the chamber when he was born. He was just a natural healthy, robust boy, of humble but honest and pious percentage, endowed with the supremest gifts of na- ture good, hard, common sense, a rugged constitution, sunny disposition, and a heart full of the milk of human kindness.
 It was not all toll in those days, and Warren delighted in all the country and village sports. None better than he loved to haunt the old swimming-pool in Whetstone

In April W. w. Mclaughlin, officer in charge of the local cable office and radio station, received a cablegram from an officer of the War Department at Washing ton transmitted through Colonel Lenoir of Seattle, making inquiry concerning possible landing place at Wrangell.
 Mr. Mclaughlin solicited the cooperation and assistance of Mayor J. G. Grant in making a report on the matter. The May or at once called for a public meeting of citizens to discuss the subject. It was the unanimous opinion of those present that there would be no difficulty in finding a field in the vicinity of the mouth of the Stikine river. The Mayor appointed a commit tee of investigation composed of c. NJ. Coulter, chairman; l.. A. Olson, Alex Vreatt, Samuel Gun ningham, and F. E. Gingrass. This committee made a trip to the vicinity near the mouth of the Stikine and found a field on the north end of Sergeif island which would meet the required specifications.
 Sergeant Mclaughlin made an official report on the matter to the War Department through his su- perior officer in Seattle.
 Nothing more was heard of the matter until about two weeks ago when a stack of letters and registered mail was received at Wrangell postoffice addressed to Advance Agent Special Airplane Flight, in care of Mayor. This was taken to mean that Wrangell had been definitely chosen as a landing place, but nothing was positively known until Tuesday morning when Captain Howard T. Douglas, U. s. A. arrived from Washington on the Princess Alice.
 On Monday Mayor Grant re- ceived a cablegram from Captain Douglas sent from Prince Rupert in which he stated that owing to being pressed for time he would be unable to stop here, but de- sired to meet Sergeant McLaugh- lin, transportation representa- tive, and some one familiar with the proposed landing place. The Alice arrived at 8 clock Tuesday morning. Captain Douglas was met by a committee composed of Mayor J. G. Grant, Captain s. c. Barring ton, c. M. Coulter, J. E. Worden, F. E. Bronson and J. w. Pritchett.
 Captain Douglas was pleased when he learned that the steamer would be in port two hours. He asked numerous questions con- corning the field selected, and seemed entirely satisfied with the answers he received.
 Captain Douglas issued an of fcial authorization giving Ser geant w. w. Mclaughlin author ity to act for the War Depart ment in arranging for the trans portation of supplies to and from Wrangell to the landing field on

 creek, which ran near by, and none could dive deeper or swim farther. Among his schoolfellows on the village green he was a prime favorite and the leader of the gang. At 16 he was a man both in stature and in strength; {; the older boys dared not bully him, and he would not permit them to impose upon the younger lads. In the contentious which inevitably arise on the playground he early developed those traits of leadership and conciliation which have been characteristic of him ever since.
 He attended the village school until IA years of age, when he entered the Ohio Central College of Iberia, from which he was graduated, standing high in scholarship; and it was there, as editor of the college paper, that he first displayed a talent for journalism. Like most aspiring young men of that age, he was obliged to stop for a time now and then and earn the money with which to pursue his college course. At one time we find him cutting corn; at another, paint ing his neighbors' barns. At still another, driving a team and help ing to grade the roadbed of the T. & o. c. railroad which was then building through that con- munity. At the age of IT we find him teaching a district school, and footing horn" in the brass band'' of the village.
 At odd times he worked in the little printing office in the village. He seemed to love the .odor of printers ink and to have passion for everything pertaining to news paper office, even down to the mi. nutest detail of the mechanical equipment. He became an expert typesetter by hand and when the linotype was first introduced he learned to operate the machine. He is practical pressman, job printer, and as a makeup man has few equals.
 He is the owner of the Marion (Ohio) Daily Star. This is the senator's idol; the pet child of his youth, and the pride of his man. hood. When he was Io, having completed his college course, his father, Dr. Harding, seeking Wi der field, removed to Marion, Ohio, the county seat of an adjoining county, where he still resides, and, despite his 76 years is in active practice of his profession.
 The Star was struggling daily paper, diminutive in size, in struggling county-seat town of four thousand inhabitants Young Hard- ing yearned to possess it. Though it had had such precarious exis- tence that it was difficult to tell whether it were an asset or lilbil- ity, his father, having faith in the boy and wishing to gratify this su. preme desire ot his young ambition, lent his credit in assisting him in taking it over-the consideration being only the assumption of its in. debtedness. The county was then Democratic, and this paper not even the official organ of the minor. ity party.
 With the enthusiasm of youth, and the inspiration of one who has his foot upon the first rung of the ladder of his ambition, the young man bent his energies to the task of making The Star a beacon-light which should shine ont of the dark ness, and to lift it out of the depths of all but bankruptcy and give it a financial standing above reproach.
