WASHINGTON LETTER.

Political and General Gossip of the National Capital. Prom our special correspondent: Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter of the President of the United States, was married Saturday to representative Nicholas Longworth of Ohio at the White House by Bishop Batteries of the Episcopal Church. It was the first White House wedding since Frances Folsom was led to the altar in the same East Room by Grover Cleveland, then President of the United States. 111 But the country has grown even in the few years since Cleveland’s day, and the wedding was certainly the most notable social event that has ever occurred in this country. It was an event that had attracted the attention of all the courts of Europe and the bride was remembered in gifts from nearly all the monarchs and governments of the world. It is a rare thing that the French government, the Emperor of Germany and the King,,pf England have all combined to recognize a wedding outside of Europe. Yet not only they but the Empress of China and the Mikado of Japan were among the thousands who sent presents. Such an array of gifts has never been seen at any other wedding in America. Some of the marriages of multi-millionaires in New York may have equalled it in the intrinsic value of the gifts, but there has never before been such a general recognition of an event by foreign governments and rulers. There has certainly never been a wedding at which the Empress of China, the King of England and a party of Indian chiefs from the far west have combined as contributors. Yet this was so in the present case, for one of the comparatively few presents to the groom was a buffalo hide waist-coat from a party of Ponca Indians now here on business with the Interior Department. The garment is the finest possible specimen of Indian handiwork and coming from the skin of a practically extinct animal, it is almost priceless. The Indians in question chased Representative Longworth all over the Capital on Thursday to present the gift to him. But he fled from the notoriety, and they had to wind up at the White House and leave it with the President who looked it over with a practiced and appreciative eye and said it was really worth. It is funny the way the President can fit in with anything or anybody who calls at the White House from a bunch of punchers to a visiting Prince and leaves them all under the impression, and pretty nearly the correct impression, that he is their sort of people and is the real thing. t t t But to continue the wedding. The ceremony was performed in the East Room under a canopy off palms that had been moved back against the wall after a vehement protest from the bride elect that she “did not intend to be married in a tunnel.’’ The ceremony was as simple and brief as the circumstances warranted, and as soon as it was over the party separated and adjourned to the Green Room and the Blue Room where the Presidential party and about sixty guests sat down to a wedding breakfast while the other witnesses were entertained at a buffet luncheon. The gathering gradually broke up. The wedding breakfast lasted till well into the afternoon, and the other guests were going from half an hour after the ceremony till almost dark. It was this gradual dispersal that favored the plans of the bride and groom. t t + There bad been an infinity of Speculation as to where the young couple would spend their honeymoon. No announcement had been given out from the White House, and it had been generally agreed tflat they were going south and would put in a week- or more in Virginia and Florida before official duties called Mr. Longworth back to Washington. But there is a certain friendly interest on the part of the American public that sometimes oversteps the bounds of propriety, and it was realized that if the destination of the bridal couple were known that life would be made unendurable for them by curiosity seekers, camera fiends and a few newspaper correspondents who either do not know any better or who do not care. So it was allowed to leak out that they were going south. Immediately all the interested parties got busy and selected even the private car on which they were to travel. Some selected the “Republic” which was a new oar to make its first trip out of the shops. Others decided that

Senator Elkin’s private car had been placed at the disposal of the bride and groom. But there were half a dozen private cars loafing on the tracks about Washington and to make a choice was a little confusing. t t t What they did was not to leave Washington at all. That is to say they went merely to the outskirts where there was no need of a private car to carry them. A friend of the family, who was only to glad too put one of his houses at their disposal, suggested to them that they make use of his country place, and accordingly while the rest of the party were still in the White House, the newly married couple quitely stepped into an electric brougham at the back door and were whirled away to the outskirt of Washington where they will spend their honeymoon.

SPORT AND CRIME.

Cincinnati Enquirer: It would seem, casually considered, that there could be no possible connection between two things so far apart in their natures and purposes as crime and sport. As a matter of fact, they have come in this country to be very closely related, and in repeated, instances the difference between them has become indistinguishable. With all our talk of respect for law we wink at and tolerate its infraction to an extent unknown to any other civilized people. This is especially true in regard to juvenile offenses, on an easy-going theory that boys will be boys, and that anything they may choose to do under the name of sport, though in flagrant disregard of personal and property rights, should be considered mere ebullitions of youthful spirits. They may rob orchards, carry off gates and signs, break up fences for bonfires, deface and destroy school and college property, and if they are caught a reprimand from the teachers, or at most a fine and suspension, is regarded as adequate punishment. The result of this training in criminality makes itself only too manifest, and is what was to be expected when we come to the higher sphere of personal rights. There the transition is easily made from small larceny and destruction of property to serious felonies, like mayhem and homicide, committed in the name of sport, or “just for fun.” The basis of all criminality is lack of consideration for the rights of others, and nowhere is it more evident than in some of the intercollegiate games and in the hazing that still goes on in many institutions.

It has been repeatedly shown beyond question that members of different teams have willfully and dangerously injured and mutilated opponents, in order to win, their violence sometimes resulting in death, carrying with it the guilt of homicide; but so far there has never been a case of prosecution in consequence of violation of law from such base and contemptible motives. In hazing and intiations young men are often equally cruel and reckless, a large gang inflicting indignities and injuries, endangering health and life, upon helpless individuals, in the most cowardly and brutal fashion. Latterly public opinion has been roused on the subject, and there are signs that its effects are being widely felt. The college authorities are discussing the reform of football rules, hazers are being held to some measure of accountability for their acts, and at a leading university a boy who was caught mutilating college property, though not turned over to the law for punishment, was not permitted to graduate. The importance of dealing more severely and adequately with these socalled boyish offenses lies in the fact that if they are tolerated, and to some extent encouraged, on the part of the future citizen at a formative age, it is certain to affect unfavorably the development of his character and bring him to maturity without that reverence for the law and scrupulous regard for the rights of others which lie at the foundation of free institutions. Furthermore, the, nonenforcement of the law against offenders of the educated and well-to-do class cannot fail to be regarded by the masses as favoritism and injustice, and to produce deplorable results.

Mainspring of Life.

No On Can be Strong With a Weak Stomach. B. F. Fendig Telia How It May be Strengthened. The stomach is the mainspring of life. When it is strong and acts perfectly, then the whole system is right, assimilation is perfect, and body and brain are thoroughly nourished. One may perhaps get temporary relief from stomach troubles by using pepsin, or some other digestant, but this treatment has no curative effect. It does not reach the seat of the trouble and remove the cause. How much better to use Mi-o-na, which restores lost functions of the whole digestive system, revives flagging nutrition, and aids in the assimilation of food. Mi-o-na is a pleasant remedy to use, and benefit is seen from almost the first day’s treatment. It restores the torpid glands and stimulates the natural digestive secretions, It checks fermentation, stops germ growth, soothes inflammation, and cures all troubles, such as headaches, backaches, rheumatic pains, furred tongue, sleeplessness, nervousness, and general debility, which are caused by imperfect digestion. It is the only remedy that is so uniformly successful in the cure of stomach diseases that B. F. Fendig is willing to give a guarantee on every 50 cent box of Mi-o-na tablets that the remedy will cost nothing unless it cures. He has so much faith in Mi-o-na that he is willing to take all the risk.

A Live Wire Every nerve is a live wire connecting some part of the body with the brain. They are so numerous that if you penetrate the skin with the point of a needle you will touch a nerve and receive a shock —pain it is called. Aches and pains come from a pressure, strain or injury to a nerve; the more prominent the nerve the greater the pain. When the pain comes from a large nerve it is called Neuralgia whether it be the facial nerves, or the heart, stomach, sciatic or other prominent nerve branch. To stop pain, then, you must relieve the strain or pressure upon the nerves. Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills do this. "I suffered intense pain, caused by neuralgia. I doctored and used various medicines without getting relief until I began taking Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills. They did me more good than all the medicines I ever used. They never fall to cure my headaches, and their use never leaves any bad after-effects.” MRS. WM. BECKMAN, 957 W. 4th St., Erie, Pa.
