The wedding of Maude Cupples Scudder of St. 
Louis and Signor Gustave di Rosa, Italian consul at 
Boston, took place last Saturday at the home of the 
bride in St. Louis. Because of a recent injury, Wal- 
bridge Taft of Boston, who was to have acted as best 
man, was unable to attend, and his place was filled by 
Howard Major of St. Louis. Ammi Wright Lancashire 
of Manchester and Roger Hill of New York, were 
groomsmen. Miss Cordelia Drexel Biddle of Philadel- 
_phia, who was to have been one of the bride’s attend- 
ants, was detained at home by the nearness of her own 
wedding to Angier B. Duke. The bride was attended 
by her sister Mrs. John H. Overall, as matron of honor, 
and by Miss Elizabeth Edgar, as bridesmaid. There 
were about 200 guests at the wedding and_ reception. 
Signor Di Rosa and his bride first met at Magnolia 
where both spend their summers. They are to live at 
the Copley-Plaza in Boston, and this summer they will 
probably be at Magnolia as usual.

William Rockhill Nelson, editor and owner of the 
Kansas City Star, died at his home in that city Tuesday 
morning. Mr. Nelson, who was 74, had been ill sev- 
eral months with uraemic poisoning. “ Mr. Nelson was 
born at Fort Wayne, Ind., March 7, 1841, and was edu- 
cated at Notre Dame University. After conducting the 
Fort Wayne Sentinel a short time he started the Kan- 
sas City Evening Star with his partner, Samuel ae 
Morss.. On the latter’s death Mr. Nelson became sole 
owner and made the paper one of the greatest in Amer-

He took a lively interest in beautifying Kansas 
City and was a pioneer in urging paved streets and 
park system. In politics he was, as he often said, “In- 
dependent but never neutral.” But he would never con- 
sider any elective position. In the 1912 campaign he 
was an active Progressive. He had a summer home at 
Magnolia and owned the schooner yacht Hoosier, whose 
hailing port was Gloucester. 
MARBLEHEAD hotels and summer residences are be- 
ing put in readiness for the season 1915 and the 
Neck across the harbor is busy with carpenters and 
mechanics renovating much of the shore property there. 
There is not a new house on the Neck, with the excep- 
tion of the Morss house, completed this spring. | Work 
was started on this summer home last season. 
The log cabin “at the end of the car line” at Marble- 
head on the mainland has been repaired and re-painted 
for this season and presents an appearance much differ- 
ent than for the last two seasons, when it has been 
vacant. Previous to last year it was a well-known auto- 
mobile resort for shore dinners, etc., and boasted of a 
patronage exceeded by but few houses on the upper 
North Shore. The property has not been let for the 
present season and is still in the market. 
The Adams house on Fort Sewall, Marblehead, has 
opened for the season. 
Mrs. Alice L. Burdett of Brookline, ts to occupy 
the Smith cottage at Devereux beach, Marblehead, for 
the summer. 
The New Glover inn on the Marblehead water- 
front is open for the season. Manager Anderson ‘s 
already receiving applications for reservations. A good 
season 1s in prospect. 
WAMPSCOTT in the persons of 500 members of the 
Tedesco club made a protest against the application 
of Michael McDonough, a Swampscott contractor, to the 
Salem city council for permission to store dynamite in 
a shed in a swamp in the rear of the Marblehead pump- 
ing station, which is within the boundaries of Salem. 
Besides officers of the club, the towns of Marblehead 
and Swampscott entered protests against granting the 
petition and as a result it was turned down. In order 
to get dynamite to and from the proposed store houses 
the wagons of explosives would have to pass on a road- 
way near the clubhouse. Mr. Payne, president of the 
Tedesco club, at the hearing on the proposition said that 
idle chauffeurs and caddies would be a source of danger, 
Marblehead’s principal objection rested in the possible 
damage to the town’s water supply in case of an ex- 
plosion. The Salem fire department and the state police 
thought favorably of the site of the proposed store- 
house. In view of the opposition to the petition the 
Salem city council turned it down. 
The date of the formal opening of the Tedesco 
Country club at Swampscott has not been set, but as in 
previous seasons it will be open to rembers on Monday 
next, April 19. With the weather continuing as fair 
as for the last few days many will probably try their 
golf clubs out and there is a prospect that the tennis 
courts may be busy. 
THe Two Great Questions that are rocking the 
world are Prohibition and War. Arrerica can take the 
one, but has no desire for the other.
