OoOsn, Nov. 0.--Count Hohenzollern
Ind his bride, Princess Hermine. OF
Reuss, began their honeymoon today
with no place to go. They were mar.
fied at the House Of Doom, where the
eme.time Kaiser spends his hours in
exile, and there they remain today.
The ceremonies that united them.
both civil and religious. were witnessed
by twenty eight guests and were Kept

both studied and mysterious. .

the exile Of Doom selected Sunday as
f, his wedding day. And not few OF
them looked with disfavor upon him
becoming n bridegroom within nineteen
months after the death of the woman
who shared his glorics and his sorrows,
the former Empress Augusta Victoria.
Several Of the children of that iirst
union saw their father married yes
terday, but the wife of the former
Crown Prince did not accompany her
husband to Doom. as the nuptials met
with her disapproval.
William began his wedding day with
breakfast at q o'clock. Soon the guests
began to arrive. At IL 80 the civil
ceremony was started in the lodge where
Hermine had spent the night. The

came a reception in the smoking room
followed by lunch and the bridegroom
and the bride sat at the head OF AZ
oblong table.
William wore the full dress uniform
Of the Imperial Guards. From boil
castle and lodge the black and whit'
Hohenxollern banner fluttered. But be-
yond the limits of the estate no mani
festations Of popular rejoicing were t
be seen or heard.
Bright uniforms and snowy epanlette
