PLYMOUTH GIRL BECOMES A BRIDE A very pretty wedding was solemn ised, Saturday evening last, at the home of Frederick S. Ilexse. U>21 North Camar street. Philadelphia, when Ills sister. Miss Jane W. Hoo-.e. of Plymouth Meeting was united in marriage to Mi. .lames H. Todil of Norristown, by the Rev. frank B. Green*, of Haws Avenue M, B. church. Norristown. To the strains of the Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin, played by a nine piece orchestra, the bridal party en-tered the room. The bride was at-tired In a white lingerie dress, trimmed with eltiney lace, and carried 8 shower bouquet ol white styeel peas, she was attended by her sister, Mrs. Nelson (i. Standing, of Plymouth Meeting, as matron of honor, who were a white ie dress, with a pah' Uuc .--ash and carried pink sWi el pea I! The bridesmaids were: Miss Anna C. Wright, a cousin of the bride, ol Philadelphia, and Miss Anna Tpdd, a sister of the groom, of Norris-town. They also wore whie lingerie dresses, with blue sashes and carried pink sweet peas. The bride's nephew. Master Fre-derick Hoese Glanding. carried the ring on a silver tray. The groom was attended by his brother. Charles Todd. of Norristown. as best man. The bride was given away by her brother, Frederick H. Hoese. She re-ceived many beautiful and valuable gifts. Immediately after the reception, following the wedding, while thoir friends were busily decorating the carriage and arranging to give them a "royal send off" the bride and gioom by a circuitous route over roofs and via ladder, back fence, etc., eluded them and boarded a trolley car for the station, where they left for a trip through New York State. Or. their return they will be at home to their friends, after August 1 at their newly furnished home. 1015 Cherry street, NorriBtown. The house was beautifully decora-ted with mountain laurels and ferns. Among the attending guests were some from Reading, San Francisco. Chicago, Norristown, Germantowa, Roxborough, Plymouth Meeting and Philadelphia. Lengthy ar-gunicnts'were made by .loseph II. ehaote, Warwick M. Hough and Law rence Maxwell, and to-day the equally distinguished counsel for the advo-cates Of straight whiskov will be heard. The President will then lake the matter under consideration. w-inie the blended whisky Inter-c sis. which largely centra around Philadelphia, have i», „ lighting all along against bavin gto label their product "imitation whiskey' or "com-pound" or nine similarly deleterious term, their counsel yesterday gave an entirely new turn to the whole ques-tion. II was asked at the end ol the brief filed by Mr. Hough and Mr. Maxwell that should an executor or-der replace the original .food Inspection decision, Lb* name of tile blended ar-ticle be "redistilled whiskey." On this subject the brlel saj s: "It is sohly on the ground mat whiskey ■u:i>l>: by the continuous process does not contain a 'substantial amount Ol by-prodUCtS,' that the Sol-icitor General denies to it the name whiskey, at least simplieiter; but his objections, so far as they have any practical significance, may be over-come il il la culled by a name that distinguishes it from whiskey that con-tains a substantial amount of by-pro-ducts. 'The only distinction between the twe, is that the amount ol by products Is , educed, by I he process ol r.'distiIla-tion oi double distillation that is em-ployed in making continuous whiskey. ii it la called redistilled whtskey, M is truthfully distinguished from whis-key not made by that process. Re-distilled whiskey is the name by which it was originally known, and if any I'.vcniiii' circle, or regulation is made to replace food Inspection decision t;:,. or Internal revenue regulation ~--^r\ we respectfully ask thai the name, 're distilled whiskey' shall not be denied to whiskey made by the continuous process." The aigun^euts yesterday went Into the whole question of the etimology of the word whiskey and the legality of Its use I nreference to the blended article. The fact that neutral spirits are never sold as such to customers but always under the name of whiskey was claimed by the blenders' counsel to be Irrtlevant. The brief said: "There is nothing inconsistent In the fact that neutral spirits are sold to the rectifier at high proof under the name neutral or Cologne spirits, and to the wholesaler or retailer, when re-duced to potable proof, under the name whiskey. In the latter case the distillate Has been finished and made ,D U1.lk,„g ollt „le rcquire,i roport ,, ready for consumption as a beverage, the superintendent the employee wrote COURT APPOINTS RECEIVERS A session of Miscellaneous Court was held yesterday morning in court room No. 1, with Judges Swart/, atxl Weand on fBB~ bench.

It Is therefore properly called whis-key, which implies a potabls<lrlnk. "But when a rectifier buys neutral spirits h els not getting a finished ar-tie 1. ready for consumption, but raw material at high proof for the purpose the purpose of making it into whiskey; and neutral or cologne spirits is the trade designation ol such, raw mater-ial, just as high wines Is the trade designation of the unrefined raw ma-tt rial'' The gliht over the question was set-tled once and then leopened for fur-ther heal ing. Attorney general Bona-parte months ago took shies with Doc-tor Wiley and rendered a long decis-ion that "straight whiskey" must be that article of manufacture from grain without rectifying, blending or miving with anything. Redistillation, mixing wth neutral spirits, etc., necessitated labeling as "compound whisky" or 'lim-itation whiskey." ,— A groat protest went up from tho men engaged in rectifying and putting upon the market choice assortments of mixed, blended and other grades containing neutral spirits of ethyl al-cohol. They claimed that heir busi-ness would be ruined, and that their product was just as pure and as much entitled to be called "straight whis-key" as the stuff taken from the Qov- REAL CHECK ON SPEEDERS Motorists who three weeks ago considered the ultimatum of several police departments to the effect thai speeding and careless driving should slop. !is a momentary aberration on the1 part of the authorities, have changed their minds to a noticeable extent.
