RENSSELAER, INDIANA. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1915.

LARUE-NEAL WEDDING.

In the presence of a large number of invited guests, most of whom were close friends of the bride, Miss Bel Laßue, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Laßue, and Mr. George E. Neal, son of Elam Neal, of Indianapolis, were married Wednesday afternoon at 4 o’clock. The marriage took place in the Presbyterian church and was performed by the pastor, Rev. J. C. Parrett

At just 4 o’clock Mrs. E. J. Randle sang “Dawn” and One Perfect Day,” and at their conclusion Mrs. A. R. Hopkins played Mendellsohn’s wedding march. Dr. Wade Laßue, of Indianapolis, brother of the bride, followed by the other ushers, George Kadel and Will S. Neal, of Indianapolis, entered the auditorium from the rear and proceeded down the left center aisle to the front. The best man, Mr. E. Raymond Patterson, of Philadelphia, Pa., who (had been a classmate of the groom at DePauw, accompanied the groom. The maid of honor, Miss Vera Southwick, of Atlanta, Ga., a classmate of the bride at DePauw and also a member of the same sorority, the Alphi Chi Omega, and the bridesmaids, Misses Harriett Shedd and Myra Watson, of Rensselearo Miss Ethel Huff, of ndianapolis and Mrs. Howell Thompson, sister of the groom, of Louisville, entered also from the rear and came down a parallel aisle to the front. Next came tiny Jeanette Thompson, of Louisville, and then came the bride on the arm of her father. Rev. Parrett met them at the foot of the altar and the official ceremony of the Presbyterian church was read, the vows taken and then the best man, Mr. Raymond Patterson, handed to the groom the wedding ring and as he placed it on the hand of the bride, the maid of honor, Miss Sbuthwick, held the large bridal bouquet of lillies of the valley and white roses. The bride and groom then knelt on satin pillows as a brief prayer was offered. Miss Laßue wore an ivory satin dress with a bolera of pearls and a court train of brocaded satin. The bridesmaids wore white net dresses over pink satin and carried bouquets of Killamey roses. The traveling dress of the bride was green broadcloth trimmed in fur, with a brown hat trimmed with a bird of paradise and lillies of the valley.

The church was decorated in pink and white, the lights being dimmed by pink paper and the candelabra and windows hung with green vine?. A mass of blooming and foliage plants formed a bank in front of the altur, whi’o bouquets of carnations a;i«l * uraniums and large ferns completed the tcry tasteful decorations.

The reception was held in „ the church parlors in the basement, where Mr. and Mrs. Neal, Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Laßue, Mr. Elam Neal and the bridesmaids and maid of honor stood in line as the guests entered the dining room where refreshments were served. The girls who served were all music pupils of the bride and were Misses Helen Parkinson, Helen Warner, Helen Duvall, Ivah Healey, Lucille Knox, Lucile JLuers, lone Zimmerman, Margaret Babcock and Mabel Nelson.

At the conclusion of the ceremony and after th£ guesrts had departed the bride and groom, the out-of-town guests and a few intimate friends went to the Laßue home on River street, where the newlyweds began preparation for their departure on the 6:45 northbound train, which they were to go to Monon to board. Departure was made at about 5:30 o’clock, a 7-passenger automobile bearing the bride and groom and a number of their friends. Mrs. Neal, after the car had started, made an excuse to get a box of facial cream to prevent her face chapping and left the car in front of Larsh & Hopkins drugstore. At the same time Mr. Neal left the car ostensibly to get Borne cigare at H. W. Kiplinger’s cigar store. Both rushed through the stores td the alley in the rear, where Dr. Wade Laßue and Miss Harriett Shedd awaited them in an automobile. In an instant they were being rushed away to the country. It was only a few moments until their friends in front of the store discovered that they had been misled and they set out in hunt of the escaped couple but their search was unavailing and it was not until near the time for the 7:31 south bound train on which most of the out-of-town guests were departing that Mr. and Mrs. Neal put in an appearance at the railway station. Their own train, the north bound, was more than an hour late and they left on it for Chicago, from whence they will go to Detroit, Cleveland, New York City and other eastern points. They will return in about two weeks and take up their residence at 1150 West Thir-ty-third street, Indianapolis. .

Miss Laßue is a graduate of Rensselaer high school and attended DePauw university for some time, receiving a diploma in music. She was talented as a pianist and organist and many of the student musicians of this city have been under her traning for the past four or five years, organist at the Presbyterian church she had .performed a splendid service and her popularity in this city was attested by the great abundance of

ARDMORE, OK LA., HAS GASOLINE EXPLOSION

Thirty-One Killed and Two Hundred Injured When 250-Barrel Tank 4 Car Exploded. Ardmore, Okla., Sept. 27.—At least thirty-one persons were killed and it is estimated two hundred other persons were injured seriously here this afternoon, when a 250-barrel tank car of gasoline exploded in the heart of the business district. The force of the explosion shook down many buildings and threw burning gasoline in every direction. A few minutes later Ardmore was at the mercy of scores of fires. At 8 o'clock the fires were under control and the city was under martial law. Private homes were immediately thrown open to the injured and scores of men were working tonight in the smouldering ruins along Main street in search of additional victims. Not a building on Main street escaped damage, either as a result of the force of the explosion or of the fires following.

Many Planned to Come If Had Held Home Coming.

Every few days The Republican learns in some way of the disappointment that is felt because the “home coming” that was proposed was not held. Our old residents like to come back and their visit is more enjoyable if other old acquaintances are here at the same time.

Possibly red lemonade and popcorn and some cheap street shows do not have as much attraction for many as they did a few years ago, but a home coming could not be arranged without having some kind of attraction and since we have missed this year, would it not be a good idea to begin now to plan for a real home coming for another year? It could be advertised months ahead of time and we could just revel in reminiscences of old Jasper county and the little Rensselaer of years gone by. We could have the largest crowd that ever assembled here at one time and by preparing for it all through the year we could look prettier than a girl graduate. Here is something for the Retail Merchants Association to take up.

Property damage was estimated at above one million dollars. The famous French market section was partially wrecked. New Orleans, Sept. 29.—Five persons are known to be dead and many injured and property loss reaching into the millions has been caused tonight by the most severe gulf storm in the history of the city. A gale with a velocity of 86 miles an hour swept the city at 6 o’clock tonight, demolishing scores of buildings, stripping the roofs from hundreds of other structures and strewing the streets with broken glass and debris. At 7:30 p. m., a rising barometer gave evidence that the storm was subsiding, the center passing to the northwest of New Orleans.

Louis H. Hamilton Submits To Operation In Indianapolis.

Louis H. Hamilton, who had been having trouble since last week with his blinded eye and who went to Indianapolis with Dr. Gwin Wednesday, submitted to an operation for the removal of the eyeball that day. This step was deemed neecssary to prevent further pain and as a precaution against injury to his other eye. It proved entirely successful and it is probable that Mr. Hamilton can return home the first of the week.

Long Distance Wireless Telephone Message Accomplished First Time.

Washington, Sept. 92.—Long distance wireless telephone communication was accomplished for the first time today, when experiments extending over several months culminated in successful transmission of the human voice by radio from the great naval plant at Arlington, Va., across the continent to the station at Mare Island, California, 2,500 miles away. The experiments were conducted under direction of Captain Bullard, chief of the navy’s radio service, in co-oper-ation with the American Telephone and Telegraph company and the Western Electric company. Secretary Daniels, announcing the result tonight, predicted that further development of wireless telephony would make great changes in long distance communication, both for military and naval service and in commercial usage.
