BRIDE CLAIMED
IN SUNDAY
WEDDING
Sarah {. Kane Isl Wed TO
Donald G. eIIy--Leave
for Pittsburgh

When love finds way, it works
fast, conquering such minor OBJ
stacles as time and space, as in
the case Of Donald c.. Kelly, of
Pittsburgh, Pa, and Miss Sarah e.
Kane, of 904 South Carolina avenue
southeast, who were married yester-
day afternoon in st. Peters Cath
Ole Church.
Several months ago, Mr.. Kelly, an
expert accountant, was called from
his field of endeayor in Washing
ton to better job in Pittsburgh.
Before he left, he and Miss Kane
planned June wedding, with all
the trimmings that custom asso-
ciates with such occasions. AS far
as all friends knew, the wedding
was set for June.
Then the couple decided, via cor
respondence, that they wouldn' t
wait any longer. Work was press
ing in Pittsburgh, however, and
Mr.. Kelly's chances for a honey
moon vacation were Of the slimmest.
Fast work was necessary.
A church dispensation for the
Sunday afternoon wedding was OBJ.
tanned. A few friends-a very few
were informed. Mr.. Kelly caught
a train out Of Pittsburgh late Satur.
day night.
At 2 o'clock, yesterday afternoon,
the ceremony was performed. At
2:15, the couple were being pelted
with rice and confetti in Union
Station. Before 8 o'clock they were
on the train for Pittsburgh. Today
Mr.. Kelly is back at work and the
new Mrs. Kelly has started house
keeping.

ANIMALS To CO
OVER NIAGARA
FALLS
Bobby Leach, Who Made Trip
Once, to Experiment for
Another Trial

NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, April
28.-Bobby Leach, Niagara navi.
gator, who attracted worldwide at.
tention by successful navigation of
the death-dealing rapids and a drop
over the falls, may, it is said, make
thorough tests Of the changing cur.
rents and the resisting qualities Of
rubber by sending small animals
over the falls in huge rubber balls.
Leach's theory is that rubber has
better resisting qualities than steel
and that vehicle Of rubber, could
successfully battle the tremendous
power Of the falls.
Leach hopes to enter the upper
rapids In large rubber casing, let
the current carry him to the brink
Of the falls and take the big drop
and come out alive. He has &C.
complished the stunt once, encased
in a steel barrel Of unique design.
The Canadian government is said
to dislike the idea Of experiments
with animals and is reported to
have served notice that Leach can
not experiment or make the high
dive from the Canadian side Of the
falls.
