 might not be such bad idea to rumor that she will marry Far mington, seeing as his father owns so many oranges; and that 1t will go for an innocent little press stunt.
 So say to Dottie and Farming ton a few days later, I guess you kids are right about this marrying business. But why not wait until Dottie finishes her next picture and then have one of those super, CO., lossal, gigantic Hollywood wed- dings?'
 Pennington insists on a nice quiet church affair. but I subtly drop hint that after all he should grant this little wish of Dottie's for an elaborate wedding, seeing as she is giving up her cinema career to raise oranges.
 So I plan the wedding, timing it for the finish of Dottie's lat est vehicle. Well, boys, as sure as ] there was beer in this glass, I've never seen bigger wedding g-even in the movies. It was terrific! But I'm slightly ahead of my story.
 T give that impending wedding one of the biggest build-ups I ever gave anything. give it everything. I've got all the papers hopped up and all the film colony and all of the big shots and the space we grab in advance for the wedding would make the Johnstown flood seem like a break in 8 Holland dike.
 Well, anyway, the great moment arrives. The cameras are grind- ing and I've got all the angles cov- cred. Pennington shows up all smiles and a bit uneasy about this stupendous, gargantuan, titanic af- fair in which he is about to be principal.
 Boy, thrill when I think of it.! But the details-youll want to hear the details. Well, the organist is seated at the organ about fifteen minutes in advance and the red plush is laid and everything is in readiness for the big event."
 Some of the boys were getting 8 bit uneasy at this point of Bucks ydTIl dIlu OIlc CllIilcu III. WhaV W"S the pay-off to this thing, Buck2"
 Buck smiled sagely. "There was only one answer to the thing" he answered laconically.
 "She married the guy" one of the boys asserted.
 Buck smiled again as he slipped his beer.
 Boys" he uttered, "this will kill you-but I didn't stay for the pay off"
 "Whaddye mean, you didn't stay, Buck?"
 No, boys, I didn't stay for the blow-off. You see, just about five minutes before MT. Pennington was to march down the aisle and play straight man to the parson Dorothy and I eloped in 8 plane to Yuma. She's Mrs. Allen today. boys"

Did ever tell you boys about my greatest publicity stunt?" Buck Allen remarked as 8 group of us press agents were exchanging stories of the s.nply marvellous things we had achieved at one time or other in our careers.
 "Her name was Dorothy. You fellows probably all remember her; she was quite movie star at one time." The lank and blond Buck settled himself comfortably and adjusted the glass of beer along side of him.
 "She had everything" Buck went on. "A terrific girl. I happened on to her when I was with a broken down unit show kicking around the country. After a look at her I say to myself, here's class. Strictly class. So I get her spot in the show"
 Buck slipped his beer before averring: But you fellows, of course, aren't interested in all of the stunts and gags I pullel in one town after another to get her in the papers and make her somebody - but they all added up to get her a break.
 We're on Broadway finally, and, well, you boys know the answers. With a girl as terrific as Dorothy, with what she had on the ball, she gets bit in a musical produc- ton and I fix it so she steals the show with clever little piece of business I have her do one night when no one is expecting 1t.
 well, the next sequence in my script, boys, naturally is Hollywood. The bigger she builds up in this Manhattan show the more the mov- ies want her. Boy, she was 8 natural!
 "So," says Buck with the beer it's in the little town of Hollywood glass in his hand and 8 gleam in his eyes, i've hop out to the coast. that top everything I've ever done for her in all the time since dis covered her.
 She's a marvel in the films and all of the rich boys who have noth- ing but time and money come buzzin' around this star of mine. But the fellow I want to mention is Hugh J. Pennington. Hugh's father owns all of the oranges in the state of California, and he's very smitten with my protegee.
 We'll, you know; when we got to Hollywood I just let the press men in the camera camps grind out the stories and do the gags on the young lady and get myself a cot tage at Mailbu and get a sun tan.

SHORT sTORy EXPLOITER A High-Powered Press Agent Walker Out on His Own Best Stunt.

l Boy, I did some terrific Ioafin' in those days.
 T don't pay any particular at- tertion to this guy Pennington for a while. He sends his car to the studio for Dorothy and he sends her orchids ard gals around to the swell spots with her. But finally Dottie comes to me one day while I'm reclining, looking at the ocean, and says: Mir. Pennington wants to marry me-
 "Of course that gets me up out of a recumbent position and give her talk about what it would do to her career-end 1t when she's just starting to really be terrific. I'm also thinlSin' that if she mar ries Farmington- I lose my meal ticket and will have to go back to work. So you boys can naturally see why I'm not 50 keen about this wedding business.
 And then Dottie has got 8 very important picture coming up and it sets me thinkin,. And to be brief, boys, I'm thinkin' that maybe 1t

LIEUT.. SEBASTIAN
GIVEN DEM0T|ON
Roosevelt Sets Aside Court
Martial Dismissal for
Secret Marriage.
BY the Associated Press.

by llt hSoOCIhIcu TIcoo'
A court-martial sentence dismissing
Second Lieut.. Henry A. Sebastian,
former West Point foot ball star, on
charges that he married Harriet Hag-
man, Broadway dancer, under an
assumed name while a cadet at the
Military Academy in 1881, was COM
muted by President Roosevelt yester-
day to make him the lowest-rankins
officer in the Army.
West Point regulations deny cadets
horse, dog, wife or mustache. and
provide that they must sign certificates
on their return from any leave de-
claring they have not been married.
Sebastian was charged with having
signed such a certificate despite his
marriage to Miss Hagman.
An Army court-martial in New York
found him guilty and sentenced him
to dismissal from the Army. When
the case came before the President for
final decision. however, he commuted
the sentence to the equivalent of de-
motion.
More than 300 cadets graduated
with Sebastian and, under the Presi-
dents decision, he is placed at the
foot of the promotion list, making
him the junior officer of the entire
Army.
Sebastian and his wife were remar-
ried in a church ceremony at New
burgh, N. Y, in 1884. after his gradu-
alton and appointment as second
lieutenant and he informed the court
he considered that his real marriage.
Sebastian was brought up for court
martial after his wife sued for separa-
ton, alleging mistreatment during a
party on Governors Island. N. Y, and
revealing his marriage while he was
still a cadet.
