Rev. Henry M. Sanders, a great uncle of the bride, officiated, assisted by Dr. Gordon Russell of Cranford. N. J. After the ceremony the bridal party was entertained at the home of the bride's uncle, Charles B. Alexander. At least a part of the honeymoon will be spent at Sagamore Hill, the coun try home of the Roosevelt family at Oyster Bay. Long Island. Later in the summer the young couple will start for San Francisco, where Mr. Roose velt Is to be in charge of the inter ests of the carpet manufacturing firm with which he has been associated for some time. The love story of the young couple has been a quick-moving romance. Their engagement was announced only last winter, and the news was cabled j to Colonel Roosevelt, resulting In the speedy receipt of his approval and congratulations. The bride, who Is the daughter of Henry Addison Alexander of New York, is twenty- Need of a Uniform Code Too Many Different Systems of Storm Signals in Use at the Present Time. Upward of twenty different systems of storm signals are at present used by the maritime countries of the world. A uniform International code is a desideratum, and the task of de vising one was entrusted by the inter national meteorological committee to a small commission, which met In London last summer and agreed to rec ommend to the committee the adop tion of a code proposed by Professor Moore, chief of the United States weather bureau. This code substi tutes a few simple combinations of the large conical symbols now used at a majority of the European ports for the storm flags heretofore used in the United States and some other coun tries. Combinations of red and white lanterns are to be used at night to con vey the same information as the day signals. The proposed code has not yet, however, been formally adopted ono years old. of a little more than medium height, slender, and of 'Jrj attractive appearance, hav ing an especially beautiful com plexion. She is as animated as her famous sister-in-law. Mrs. Alice Roose velt Longworth. whose bouse guest she was for a time just before Mrs. Longworth sailed for England to Join her father. Theodore Roosevelt. Jr.. strongly re sembles his father In looks, but is de cidedly reserved and is generally cred ited with being far less democratic than certain other members of the family. As a boy be rode horseback and engaged in all the other outdoor pursuits of the juvenile Roosevelt clan at their home at Oyster Bay and be took some part in athletics during his preparatory school course at Gro ton and his collegiate course at Har vard, but In the main he has been less enthusiastic on the subject of life in the open than his father and brother Kermit. He has always been 01 a studious nature and bis romance with Miss Alexander Is said to have had its beginnings In the mutual love of these young people for music. For all that "Teddy. Jr.," has eschewed the sensational in outdoor athletics, be did participate two years ago In a bal- loon flight from Washington. In which he and the two army officers who were bis fellow passengers had some rather exciting experiences. There was no little surprise on the part of the public when Theodore. Jr.. upon the completion of his college course two years ago. chose a busi ness career as his life work, and still more wonder was aroused when be took employment in a Connecticut car pet factory In order to gather knowl edge at first hand of the practical side of carpet manufacture. He started at the lowest round of the ladder, as an unskilled workman at a small salary. Of course be was promoted as he mas tered the Intricacies of the business, but be continued to live quietly In a 1 modest boarding house. Many persons were skeptical as to whether young Roosevelt would stick to so prosaic an existence, but be is evidently deter mined to win his fortune In this sphere. Raven's Sharp Trick. The best talking-bird new to the big collection In the London "Zoo" is a raven who came to the aviary last year. "Hullo! Jack!" Is his favorite remark, and it Is the voice of one who meets an unworthy friend. Soon after he arrived he used his conver sational powers with great effect upon a lammergeler who shares bis cage (relates the London Spectator). The lammergeler had a piece of meat which the raven desir-pri hut ho n-w unwilling to surrender IL The raven bopped up. "Hullo! Jack!" he began, and the lammergeler. aghast at the voice of man. .dropped his dinner and fled. But the lammergeler was never a bird of much spirit. by any government pending the deci sion of the international meteorolog ical committee, which meets In Ber lin next September. Since the Lon don meeting objection? have been raised by the German authorities to the proposed night signals on the ground that they are not sufficiently distinctive and might be confused with other harbor lights. The Deutsche See warte at Hamburg is now experiment ing with several systems of night sig nals and will lay the results of its In vestigations before the committee. Scientific American. Cultivating City's Vacant Lots. Vacant lot cultivation in Kansas City, Mo., is done this season under the direction of the City club.

Night Races at the Fair. The board of managers of the Ne braska state fair will meet on June 24 to take up the matter of lighting the track for the night races.

Other fair matters will also be considered. A Real Pioneer. Former Representative Raper of Pawnee county celebrated in Lincoln the fifty-second anniversary of his ar rival In Nebraska. "It was just fifty two years ago this morning," said Mr. Raper. "that I crossed the river at Brownville Into Nebraska. I went im mediately to Pawnee City and have lived there ever since. At that time there was less people In Nebraska than there is now in Lincoln, but we were all acquainted those days. Neigh bors sometimes were fifty miles apart and very far between. LAW IS HELD GOOD. The Employers' Liability Enactment Upheld. The supreme court has upheld the validity of the employers' liability act passed by the legislature of 1907. In the case of Frank Swoboda against the Union Pacific Railroad company, wherein a judgment was given in Ta vor of Swoboda, the railroad alleged that the plaintiff at the tiime of his injury was not engaged in construc tion or repair work within the mean ing of the employers' liability act. The court holds that the evidence Is sufficient as it shows that the plain tiff was engaged in construction or repair at the time he was Injured by a steam hammer, which he was helping operate in the Union Pacitic blacksmith shop at Omaha. Swo boda and another employe were oper ating a steam hammer weighing about 500 pounds in flattening iron washers which were being made for general use by the railroad company in repair of engines and cars. The employers" liability act pro vides that every railroad company operating a railroad eugine. car or tmfti In tho ctfiln nt Vlrnlfn clmlT ) be liable to any of its employes who at the time of injury are engaged in construction or repair work or in the use or operation of an engine, car or train for said company for all dam ages which may result from the negligence of any of Its officers, agents or employes. The court says this is a valid law and not rcpugnaut to the fourteenth amendment to the federal constitution. Waiting for Decision. Just as soon as the courts decide the case wherein the 2-cent fare law the freight rate law and other rail road rate questions are involved, the railway commission will be in posi tion to issue a schedule of class rates that may be charged in Nebraska. One of the principal points involved in the litigation now pending, is a division of the earnings and expenses of railroads between state and inter state business. The attorney general has maintained that the arbitrary ap portionment made by the railroads is not just to the state. If he is up held then the commission will be in a position to know just what the rates should be in this state as it will be possible then to figure just what the expenses of the roads are as well as the state earnings.
