1T is regrettable that the court

league sentiment In the republican
party which was exposed in the de-
claration of the 81 republicans who
stated just before the 1920 election
that the surest way to put the United
States into the league would be to
elect Harding. Hughes was among
the signers of this manifesto. His
present suggestion is regarded by
Borah and his followers as an at
tempt to make this pledge good.
Borahs activity at this time is
prompted by the fear that Harding
may be affected by the league talk
now spreading over the country.
churches are being organized to fos-
ter American membership. Harding
has been committed against joining
the league. but the irreconcilables
fear that he is weakening now. They
fear especially the attitude of Lnflu

Jones locker. which has baffled
trappers, lumbermen and fishermen
for years.
Twelve years ago the Schooner

spruce trees to gladden. the hearts OF
thousands of Riddles at Christmas
times, was caught in a gale on Lake
Michigan and went down with all on

No trace of the crew. its skipper. or
the cargo had ever been discovered.
Several weeks ago fishermen
dropped their nets off Two Rivers.
Then came inclement weather which
made dragging of the nets impossible
until Monday. Bits of unidentifiable
wreckage and numbers of the small
spruce trees were found in the nets
as part of the haul.
Capt James Schuenemann, COM
mander of the Inflated schooner, had
made the annual journey from Bal
ley's harbor to Chicago for num-
Der of years prior tt 1910. Although
his wife waited for days and days
after the ship was due, there came
no word, and she outfitted new
ship and sailed it herself until her
children grew large enough to aid
her.

Defense Attorneys Make Plea
For Clemency While Pros
eCution DiSapproVeS

ATLANTA, Ga, April 9.-The exc
cution of George and Ralph Baker
for the murder of Special Sheriff
Morton in Walker county more than
year ago. was postponed from Fri
day, April 13, until Friday, April 81
by Governor Hardwick today at the
request of the Seventh Congressional
District Educational association be-
cause of the high school contests
which are scheduled to be held In
that county Friday, April l3.
The postponement was announced
at the close of the hearing of petit
lions for clemency, at which time
Governor Hardwick stated that he
would make an effort to make a final
decision in the matter before the
date set for the execution of the
two boys
Attorneys for the defense based
their pleas for clemency upon the
youth of Ralph Baker and the al
legged mental deficiency of George
Baker, introducing affidavits in an
effort to prove the latter. O. y.
Glenn and r. NJ. Chambers appeared
for the boys.
Solicitor f. S. Taylor and Attor-
ney James e. Rosser represented the
state in opposing the appeal for
and three deputy sheritfs had been
slain in Walker county within the
past Is months and that if the SEN
fences of the two boys were com
muted to life Imprisonment it wouid
tend to make the future administra-
ton of law within that couny more
difficult.
Forbids Manifestations.
At the opening of the hearing.
Governor Hardwick announced that
no manifestations of approval or
disapproVal would be permitted from
the audience and the audience, which
practically filled the senate chamber,
was orderly throughout the three
hours devoted to the delineation OF
the case by the attorneys.
Attorneys for the state declared
they had had no knowledge of the
age of Ralph Baker or the alleged
mental deficiency of George Baker
at the time of the trials and that
the attorneys for the defense had not
touched upon those soints in their
arguments during the trial of the
two boys, stating that these facts
had not been brought out until their
appeal to the prison commission. At
tornevs Glenn and Chambers said
they had possessed no knowledge of
this themselves at the time OF the
trial
The people of the county were SO
aroused at the time of the homicide
that they took George Baker from
the authorities before he was lodged
in Jail and but for the plea of an
officer that they allow justice TO
take its course, would have lyme
him. it was stated during the course
of the hearing.

wife frock of Charmeuse, which was
covered with embroidered tulle. A
shawl of hand made Nenitian lace
was draped over her shoulder. She
wore a crown of orange blossoms.
Beside, and towering above the
Princess was the stately Count Di
Befgolo, CARRIED in his cavalryman' 3
uniform. On his breast were three
medals he had won for his bravery
during the World war and on his
sleeve glistened several silver stripes.
King Victor Emmanuel and Queen
Elena were the first to sign the mar
riage instrument and were followed
by the relatives of the bridegroom.
The procession then proceeded to
the Pauline chapel, who was desig-
mated as the scene of the religious
ceremony by special dispensation of
Pope Plus NJ.
Chapel Richly Decorated.
AS the wedding party entered the
ancient chapel, which was richly
decorated with rcd tapestry hung
on the walls, a choir chanted a six
teen century motif.
Yes. in a firm, almost loud voice,
was Yolanda's answer after Monsig-
nor Baccaria, assisted by several
other prelates, had read the service.
Following the DELICIOUS ceremony,
Monsignor Baccaria delivered a ser
mon in which he exalted the slories
and virtues of Italy's reigninG house.
He praised King Victor Emmanuel
for his war exploits and for turning
The bridegroom was also lauded for
his splendid war record.
AS the Drelate was speaking the
crowd on the outside of Pauline
chapel were yelling, Long live
Yolanda and Di Bergolo," Long
Live the King. and Queen Long
Live Fascismo."
The king and queen and other
members of the royal house APP
peared on the balcony, bowling 20
the throng below.
The marriage OF Tolanda and
di Bergolo is hailed as a true love
match all over Italy. All are aware
that the beautiful Princess could
have entered into marriage with al
most any one of the eligible menu
bers of European royalty if she had
so chosen. There are some even
who whisper that Yolanda could
have become the wife ON the dash
ing Prince of Wales and some day
have shared the throne by Britain
with him. If she so desired.
Count di Bergolo is IA years older
than his bride. He is the son of a
di stinguished italian diplomat and
contrary to the wishes of his father
he pursued military, instead of
d plomatic career. He is knowwnR
as one of Italy's best horsemen.
But there are some who say that
Yolanda can handle a horse as Well
as her husband. She is known all
over the country as dashing horse
woman and stories are told from one
end of Italy to the other concerning
her rashing exploits.
The couple left imme diately after
the second service to spnd hony-
moon of 90 days on the royal es-
tate at San Rossore.
