Nashville, Tenn, July 31-National
interest centers in the outcome of the
democratic and republican primaries
in Tennessee on Thursday next, Aug
ust 6rd, when the party standard
bearers for the November contest will
be chosen.
This selection of the party nominees
will precede the first test of party
strength in the state since Tennessee
broke away from the democratic
"solid south" two years ago and gave
its electoral vote to President Hard
ing and elected a republican govern
or. The candidates. of Cordell Hull
the democratic national chairman,
and Finis j. Garrett, acting demo-
cratic house leader, have focused the
eyes Of party leaders in other states
on the result in Tennessee. A United
States Senator, Governor, members
of the legislature, ten members of
congress, and a member of the rail
road commission are to be selected in
November.
United States Senator X. D. Nc
Kellar is opposed for denomination on
the democratic ticket by Captain G.

preventative T. w. Simm of Lexing-
ton, and Noah w. Cooper, of Nash

Cordell Hull, who went down to de-

Jack Pickford Weds.
Maryline Minner, a
Famous Dancer

Los Angeles, Cal, July 3l-Marll-
ynn Miller, stage star, and her new
husband, Jack Pickford, motion pic
ture star. today were receiving tele-
grams of congratulations of friends
from all parts of the world. The cou-
pie planned to leave today for their
honeymoon but refused to say where
it would be passed.
After the wedding yesterday after
noon at the home of Mary Pickford
and Douglas Fairbanks, Jack almost
los his Marilynn when everybody
rushed forward to kiss the bride.
Fairbanks, more athletic than others
in the throng, was the first man to
kiss Marilynn after the ceremony
while Charles Spencer Chaplin, the
film comedian, was right behind Doug.
From then on it was impossible to
tell who was doing the honors but
when ii was all over, the Rev. Dodd,
who performed the ceremony, stepped
forward for his kiss.
Mrs. Charlotte Pickford, mother of
Jack, said the couple would take but
a short honeymoon probably some
where in the north" and then return
TO Los Angeles so that Jack can fin
ish picture. 1t is said on good au-
thority that the couple will leave by
motor this afternoon for Delmonte
and other resorts to the northward.
In any event they will return here by
Thursday at the latest, and during
the ensuing ten days Jack will COM
plete the picture, it was said.
Then both of them will leave for
Boston where Marilynn is to reopen
in "Sally" on September 4.
Before the ceremony, a message
was received from Flo Ziegfeld, New
York producer, wishing the couple
much happiness" 1t had been said
that Ziegfeld was very much opposed
to the wedding at first but as the date
drew near his attitude softened.
Los Angeles, July 31.-Marilynn
Miller, of the stage, became the bride
of Jack Pickford, of the screen, yes
terday at the residence of the
groom's sister, Mary Pickford, and
brother-in-law, Douglas Fairbanks,
at Beverly Hills, suburb.
A brief Episcopal ceremony was
performed by the Rev. Neal Dodd,
rector of the Church of St. Mary of
the Angels, which is the little
church around the corner" to the peo-
pie of the motion picture industry.
Mary Pickford acted as matron of
honor.
The ceremony was witnessed by
nineteen invited guests and small
army of newspaper reporters, pho
tographers and motion picture cam
eramen. The official guests were
members of the Pickford, Fairbanks
and Miller families, and Charlie
Chaplin.
The bride and groom declined to
say where they would pass their
honeymoon.
Immediately after Mr.. Pickford, at
the minister's bidding, had placed the
platinum ring on the brides
finger, he kissed her. Mary Pick
ford followed him with another kiss
for the bride. Douglas Fairbanks and
Charlie Chaplin struggled for third
place. Fairbanks, more athletic than
Chaplin, won. Others pressed for
ward for the privilege, the minister
being crowded out until almost the
end.
While the ceremony was in prog
ress, Lieutenant C. H. Howe, an avi-
ator from Carlstrom field, Florida,
scared over the Fairbanks residence
and dropped more than 100 bombs"
made IN of roses and lilies of the
valley.
