 The ceremony, to take place in Indore early in the new year, is the reason advanced for the return of the Maharajah Tukoji Rao Holkar and his American bride to India this month.
 Princess Manorama, almost as old as her stepmother, has just started back to Indore after visiting with the deposed Maharajah in the castle at Ste. Germaine-e -en-Laife. She is bethrothed to a Hindu lawyer Chandraseno Rao Mutkar, in whose veins flows no royal blood.
 The Maharajah, who broke with tradition when he took his Ameri- can wife. cast it aside again wher he granted his daughter full powers to contract her own marriage. Ordi- narily in all Oriental countries, thf

 INCOME CASE

 profitable Business

CHICAGO. H., Dec. 7.-Terry Druggan, retired beer merchant, whose offer to pay the government 5,000 on his s3Oo,0OO income tax claim embroiled him in court pro- ceedings, regarded his offer as lib- eral in view of what he termed hazardous and unprofitable busi- ness"
 Druggan admitted that his gross income for two years might have been more than $200,0OO He in- sisted however, that the net was only $100,00O.
 Druggan said the reason why he filed no tax returns in 1922 and 1923, was because he was told the courts ruled no returns were re- quired on profits from the manufac- ture and sale of beer.

COUNTRY CLUB IS EXCLUSIVE

Last Word in Buildings of Kind Situated in Wilds
 Near Capital
By HERBERT PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, Dec. TT hre e miles from the White House, as the crow flies, in one of the widest and most inponetrable section 5 around Washington, is located what is expected to be the last word in country clubs.
 It is to be exclusively for the use Of army, navy and marine officers, and in time probably will be the largest organization of it's kind in the United States.
 It is located on the Arlington side of the Potomac river in a setting Of rare and wild beauty. It seems impossible that a place so wild could be so near the capital, yet there is ample proof.
 In the woods bordering the sey- enteenth fairway there lived 600- pound deer Every winter when snow blanketed the ground greens keepers would scatter hay on the ground for him to eat. He was revered by all alike as the clubs uncrowned mascot, until one day the gun of a poacher laid him low
