Finally there are the Penaherreras-
Don Luis A. Penaherrera of the lega-
ton OF Ecuador and his bride, who was
Argenta Beard Perkins. You remember
their wedding was quite an event early
in September. They were married at
Spring Lake, N. j.. where the brides
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Beard
Perkins. were spending the summer.
1t was quite an elaborate wedding, with
the Ecuadorean Minister, Senior Elizalde,
as the best man, and about the entire
legation staff in attendance. Well, they

1t seems to be generally admitted that
Mr.. De Bach rather stole a march on

distinctly popular diplomatic bachelors
with the smart set that cultivates the
diplomats. 1t seems to me that he was

Alberta Bicknell's marriage to William
jerks Wright--also OF PHILADELPHIA so
that the Quaker City Is getting two
brides from Washington this week---was
rather unusually interesting to a large
circle of friends, both for her parents
sake and for her own. For she is one
OF the two daughters of Mr. and Mrs
Ernest Bicknell. who for years was the
field director of the relief work of the
American Red Cross and during the
war had general direction of American
relief work in Europe. which was very
great responsibility. Miss Bicknell her.
self and her mother were both active in
relief work, especially In Belgium. and
both were decorated by Queen Elizabeth
in recognition of the splendid account
they gave of themselves

with unseemly haste, to have him re-
verse Lincolns generous policy toward
the conquered south.
Power quickly cooled the vindictfve
passions kindled in Johnson by his
long, bitter feud with the southern
leaders, and he returned to Lincoln's
policy of reconciliation. Wisely, no
one was punished for treason. Hap

not wreaked on any individual.
The radicals, who had secretly re-
