Sl.SO Per Year WEDDING Of ROM PAIR King of Spain Claims the Young English Princess Victoria For his Bride AMID BRILLIANT SCENES Dazzling Sunshine and a Bilwildering Maze of Color Greet the Bride on Her Wedding Day.. The Streets Thronged With Joyous People. Madrid, Rv Cable. ? Tlic marriage j of King Alfonso ami Princess Victor- } ia was celebrated Thursday. King Alfonso and his bride left the j church at 12:30 o'clock. The announ- j cement of the wedding, by the tiring 1 of artillery salutes was widely ac claimed by the people. The city awoke under a cloudlets "ky, with dazzling sunshine adding its glories to the bewildering maze ? of color in which the streets wero envoi ved. From an early hour the centers pre sented an aspect of extreme anima tion. The entire night had been pass ed amid a din of lire works, singing and dancing and thousands of pro vincials, unable to secure shelter : spent the night in cafes and in the streets. At eight o'clock the crowds dense ly packed the main thoroughfares uiul troops took up th^ir positions, stopping all traflic, and the whole city took on an air of feverish ex pectancy. The esplanade fronting ing prelates were resplendent with ' gold, silver, jewels, la^es and raro 1 embroidery. When the archbishop pronounced! the benediction over the royal couple, j the guns of the artillery stationed on the plaza thundered their salnte to the new Queen. The people who were packed in a solid mass outside of the cordon of troops, became wild with excitement and ,ioy when Vjie salute proclaimed that t lie ceremony j had been perofrnied, and cheered un I til their voices almost drowned the I booming: of the gllns and the ringing j of the church bells all over the city. The religious ceremony in St. (ieroni iuo Church was the linal aet of the marriage ceremony, as the formal signing of the marriage contract had taken placc before at the Prado Palace, in the presence of the inin ters of the Cabinet and other digni taries of the government. After the wedding ceremony in the church the King and the Queen rode in state to the Royal Palace, where everything was in readiness for their reception. Tho enthusiasm with which they were greeted on their way j by the people is indescribable. Flow- j era wero showered from tho windows and hats and handkerchiefs frantic- j ally waved. The Iving and the Queen bowed graciously in every direction ; and seemed highly pleased with the J ovations. At tho palace they received 1 tho representatives of the foreign po tentates and the diplomatic repro ploves of the municipality, bull fights, ball*, receptions and various ether features. At the end of the weeek the King and his bride -will retire to the beautiful and secluded La Ghranja Palace, where they, will speud their honeymoon undisturbed by the out side world. They will then go to San Sebastian to spend the saatmer and will probably not return to Had rid before some time in the fall. , The wedding presents, which were sent to the young couple from all parts of the world and which eem pletely filled three large halls in Hie palace, contain many priceless gifts from the rulers of European coun tries. Thoy will not be publicily ex hibited, however, and only shown to a select few. To become the bride of the King of Spain it was necessary for Princess Ena to renounce the Protestant re ligion and join the Catholic church, and also to renounce the succession to the English throne. _____ BOMB THROWN AT ROYAL PAIR Sixteen People Killed, While King and Queen are Saved by a Wire. Madrid, By Cable. ? The public re joicings over the marriage of King Alfonso and Princess Victoria had a terrible dramatic sequel, when a bomb thrown from an upper window exploded with deadly eHect near the coach occupied by the King and Queen. Providentially, King Alfonso and Queen Victoria escaped by an electric wire deflecting the bomb, but at least 16 persons, most of them be ing of the personal and military es cort and the others spectators, were killed. Many others were injured. The following are the killed: Captain Barros, commanding part of the King's escort; Lieutenant Rcysicnt, Lieutenant ' Prendergast, six soldiers, the Marquise of Colosa, her daughter, Don Antonio Calvo, his niece, aged G years, Josa Sola, 70 1 SPAIN'S NEW QUEEN. ALFONSO, KINO OF SPAIN. the royal palace was occupied by regi ments of royal guards in full gala uniforms, with glittering breast-plates nd helmets. Troops lined both sides f the fctrcets in solid ranks for miles. As the King's coach appeared it was greeted by great roar, while tho multitude wildely waved handker chiefs, fans, and parasols. His Ma jesty could plainly be seen smiling and bowing to the popular greetings, lfc wore a uniform of Field Marshal, h Hat surmounted by a sweeping white plume. Immediately following the Royal coach came the bride's party. The appcarenee of the Princess, who was about to become the Queen, arous ed tho people to the highest pitch of emotion. The bride looked most charming and graciously acknowledg ed the continued ovations. Princess Victoria came from Pardo Palace to Madrid early in the morning accompanied by her mother, Princess Henry of Bnttenburg and her ladies of honor and escorted by a regiment of royal guards. The wedding eortnge started from the royal palace at H:IIO o'clock, amid I 1he ringing of church bells, tiring of I artillery salutes and clamorous enthu siasm of the crowds massed along t lie route.

Tbo Prince and the Princess of Wales occupied seats of honor near the I bridal couple. While tho wedding dinner was being served in the pal ace the population gave itself up to | amusements of every kind. There , were special performances i?\ all theatres, fireworks, parades and balls everywhere and the whole city, in cluding the thousand* of visitors, attracted by the festivities, seemed to have abandoned itself to fun and frolic. Brilliant Banquets Follow. There were brilliant banquets at nil embassies and the city was bril liantly illuminated. The streets were thronged with people and carriages, containing beautifully dressed women I and civilians or ollicers, diplomats in i their ollicial costumes, dignitaries of] 'the Slate and the ('lunch, rolled through the streets, a constant source i of curiosity to the crowds.

The route of the cortege had been diverted from Arsenal street to Mayor street, owing to the popular desires. The procession had just passed through Mayor street and was about to turn into the cspluno lead ing to the palace when an explosion shook the buildings in the vicinity, stunning a large number of people and throwing the cortege into inex tricable confusion.

I I * A CONGRESSMAN KILLSJMSELF Representative Adams, Prom inent and Popular, Takes His Own Life BROODED OVER MONEY MATTERS Representative Robert Adams, One of House's Most Popular and Con spicuous Members, Shoots Himself to Death. Washington, Special. ? Representa tive Robert Adams, of Philadelphia, died at the Emergency Hospital from the effects of a self-inflicted bullet wound. Mr. Adani9 was discovered in a dying condition in his apartments nt the Metropolitan Club chambers. He was sitting in a chair. A bullet wound in his mouth and pistol lying near him made it clear that he had at tempted suicide. A letter received by Speaker Can non from Mr. Adams explained the cause of the suicide. Mr. Adams said in the letter that his debts exceeded his resources and forced him to aban don his ofllcial position. While he did not indicate an intent to take his life, he spoke of the form of his burial, indicating that he had then made up his mind to commit the rash act. Dr. Ncvitt, the coroner, issued a certificate of death by suicide, saying that it was such a clear case no in quest would be necessary. The House Shocked. Not in years has there coinc to the membership of the lower House of Congress such sudden gloom as came with the going out of Mr. Adam*. But lately having charge of thee dip lomatic and consular bill, he showed energy and activity, getting the bill through the House with less friction than usual, few amendments being mnde to the measure. When the house convened there was an especially largo membership present ami when the chaplain re ferred to the death of the late Con gressman, members were visibly af fected. An Unparalleled Scene. Then came a scene that has never had its parallel in the historic cham ber of the nation's law-making body. The Speaker rose and asked that the House indulge him white he read a letter from the dead, a letter received while the life of Robert Adams was passing away. A silence fell on the House that but the day before was surcharged with animation. The let ter was? as follows: "Washington, May 31, 100(5. "Hon. J. (!. Cannon. "My Dear Mr. Speaker: "The fact that my personal obliga tions exceed my resources is my only excuse for abandoning the responsible position 1 occupy in the House. 1 am willing to be buried, at its expense, but 1 ask that no committee be ap pointed or memorial services held, as 1 have never been in sympathy with the hitter custom. "With assurances of my high re gard "Sincerelv vours, "ROBERT ADAMS." Following the reading of the letter. Mr. Morrell presnted a resolution directing the sergeant-at-arms to make the necessary arrangements for the funeral, the expenses to be paid out of the contingent fund of the House, and then, as a further mark of respect, the House adjourned. Representative Adams was one of the most popular Representatives in Congress and lie has ben identified with many matters of world-wide importance. Lynchers Under Bond. Wadesboro. N. C? Succial ?

A number of the members, who were 'arrested'2 by (he serjeant-at arms during the call of the house at night, were still in a savage mood when the liovse convened and they had personal reasons to assign why tliev were absent on roll call. Throughout the whole of the ses sion which was p.ecipitated by the motion to approve the journal, the speaker ol t lie house sat almost im movable, now and then indulging in a quiet chuckle over the discomfort of his friends. When his right to drect the issu ance of (he writ of arrest was at tacked, the speaker following an ex position of the rules, terminated fur ther argument by assert in- that "the gentleman had been legally arrested." The rules of (he house, as to the presence of members, were brought home to the members and during the ? est of the day, while the house had unddr consideration the diplomatic and consular bill, a quorum was con tinuously present.
