Que., July 27 —(UP) The married life of Lena Wilson, a daughter of the St. Maurice river region, and James Bud Stillman, son ot the drawing room and counting houses of New York, began today with the (onventionally blissful honeymoon. It has been ushered in with the hurling cf crockery, but that comic-strip climax to the most romantic of weddings was received by the Bride and Groom with laughter instead of as «u 11l omen The crockery throwing was not par ticipated in by Bud and Lena, although both enjoy'.<l it immensely. It was th? special amusement of Mrs. Anna L. Stillman, mother of Bud. and persistent photographers were the targets. The slcnstick touch, however, was lint a mon ent or two in a glorious day which began with the arrival of tne Royal Highlanders band, resplendent in plaids and kilts and decorated with many medals, and ended with the wedding breakfast late in the day and the dance that followed. .Mid-way between ‘he beginning and

the end of the joyous day was the wedding ceremony itself, performed in the open a’r under a het sun Lein Wilson, the back woods bride, hac. ali the poise of a seasoned veteran of the drawip ; rooms as she knelt before the altar and 1 ecame the wife of Bud Stillman. Princeton graduate and heir millions. The most trying moments came almost immediately after the three Priests had pronounced the words which made Lena and Bud man and wife. ( After the ceremony, the guests went to the rear of the Stillman house to | witness the cutting of' the wedding cake. Mrs. Stillman posed for the cameramen but theii orders got the best of her patience. She ordered the carnet amen away. But they returned and she saw them. j Mrs. Stillman grasped a fine China dinner plate from cne of the many stacks around the wedding cake and 1 hmled it. The plate missed its n ark and crashed through a window. She tried a second shot, it toppled over the camera. Then a third throw, and the plate went straight for the head of one of the photographers. He wasn’t hurt but the plate was. The crowd rooted for Mrs. Stillman, her husband laughed. Having plenty of exercise, th y > redoubtable hostess ordered her gue its to empty the punch bowls and plates. The feasting began. Pretty French maids, in pert uniforms insisted < n second helpings; and it was late afternoon before the feasting was over. Then as darkness fell dancing began in the big open air pavilion, to the music of the Royal Highlanders' band and fiddles and accordions; and the] dancing a mingling of the latest steps on broadway with the ytld-fashi rued dances of the north woods, lasted far into the nigh*. And all tne while, Bud and Lena were gracious to everyone, and smiled constantly. o Prisoners Put On Diet Os Bread And Water Chicago, July 27-rtUP)—One hundred ptisonets at Cook county jail began a sentence of a week to a diet of bread and water today because some of their number severely beat two confessed bandits who turne dstate’s evidence.
