4% ASTOR WKS MNO BOE ON WAY TO CDK Hetty Green's Daughter and| Her Husband to Spend Honeymoon at Galt. TO GO ABROAD SOON.| Future Home of Couple to Be} on Madison Avenue, This City. Matthew Astor Wilks and bride, who ‘was Miss Sylvia Green, have started on thelr honeymoon. Hetty Green, the “world's richest woman,” who finally | consented to let her daughter marry the sixty-five-year-old grandson of the original John Jacob Astor, was still de- Ughted to-day in her flat at No. 130 Bloomfield street, Hoboken, over the way she fooled her Inquisitive neighbors into thinking the wedding had been gone through with a week ago, so that when it actually did come off yesterday, In Morristown, N. J they weren't pre- pared for it. Mrs. Wilks carried a great deal of her mother's love with her on her trip, but none of her mother’s money, at least, so far as anybody outside the family knew. The $50,000.00, at which Hetty | Green's fortune Is estimated, may or may not go to Sylvia when her mother) ies, but it is intimated that It will. Bound for Canada. The honeymooners are speeding to Galt, Canada, where Mr. Wilks has large interests. After a time they will go to Europe on an extended tour, and after that it is expected they will live at Mr. Wilk’s town house, No, 40 Mad- {son avenue, this city. It was a simple wedding, but the wed- ding breakfast was a good deal more elaborate than might have been ex- pected when the simplicity of Hetty Green's tastes are considered. It was all done up in French, and there was Burgundy and champagne, too. Hetty Green drank a bumper of the latter to the health of the bride. Although the wedding party went from Hoboken in the private car Ivory- dale, {t was noted that on the return trip, when Mrs. Green took a cab and the jehu sought to charge her {2 for it, she began to bicker, It was a 50 per cent. bicker in which she succeéded, ‘The cabman carried her for $1. Neighbors Looked Glum. When the nelghbors saw her return- ing they looked glum, for already they | had heard that they had missed thelr | t only chance for a real good, substan- neighborly look at the bride in her Directoire wedding gown, This was o|s travelling dress that exceeded In gor- gGeousness anything that ever happened in the Green family. They were equally Interested In a despatch from Dallas, Tex., in which H. R.

Dr. Shmaryhu Lewin, the Jewlsh leader and former member of the Rus- |slan Duma, safled on the Mauretania for his headquarters tn Berlin, after a | tour through the United States for the |ty-third street, on the complaint of the | purpose of collecting funds for the pro- | posed Technological Institute at Halfo, Palestine. Dr. Lewin sald his tour had been veery successful and that he was much pleased with the result. When asked how much he had collected he said: "Oh, 1t 1s not how much was col- lected that is important. It 1s the ‘spirit in which it was given that counts, and I must say that excellent spirit was shown. In general the Jews {n America thoroughly appreciate what an {mportant undertaking 1s represent: | ed in the establishment of the Instl- tute. “The ultimate object of the institute 4s the founding of a great colony in Palestine of the Jews who are op- pressed in Rusia and tn nearby coun- tries, an opportunity to make a livelihood and will find a climate like that of Cal- ifornta. “The constitutional changes that have taken place recently in Turkey make the establishment of the Institute a pos- albility.
