ASTOR-HUNTINGTON WEDGING SIMPLE lliness of Bridegroom Reason for Lack of Display. Staatsburg, N. Y., May 1.—Only the simplest of ceremonies marked the wedding of Miss Helen Dinsmore Huntington and Vincent Astor, head of the house of Astor and wealthiest young man in America. Rev. Richard Duncan, pastor of St. Margaret’s church, read the Episcopal marriage service. Owing to the recent illness of the bridegroom, who is still weak from an attack of grip, the ceremony was performed at Opelousas, the magnifi- cent Staatsburg estate of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert P. Hunt- ington. Only seventy-five guests, including Astor’'s mother and sister, Alice Mu- riel, Mr. and Mrs. Huntington and other close relatives and friends at- tended. Fifteen of the guests came from New York by special train. The bridegroom’s mother and sister spent the night at Ferncliffe, the Astor es- tate near here. The only attendants for Miss Hunt- ington - were Alice Muriel Astor and Margaret Dows, daughter of Mrs., Tracy Dows, whose home is near Hopedale house, and her sister, Alice Huntington. The two former acted as flower girls and the bride’s sister as maid of honor. Herman Oelrichs, boyhood chum of Vincent Astor, was the best man. ‘There were no ushers.

He is still buying po- | tatoes here and advises the farmers about Bemidji to bring their pota- toes in now as the new crop in a few weeks wil have a tendency to lower the price of old potatoes. W. G. Schroeder has sold several cars of po- tatoes to Mr. Wilcox and also ad- vises along the same lines. —_—— Rt o SR S R S O oo E3 4 VILLA TO GET $75000 ON DEATH OF HUERTA.

Confine them in their own house at night, so they will not become a nuisance in the other buildings. The Markeis Duluth Wheat and Flax.
