27. oc23-W WITH every shutter closed the Elkins house on street does not suggest in the slightest degree anything like a near-royal wedding, as the delightfully descriptive matter, which has again and again filled the newspapers lately to the exclusion of other great affairs, would have us believe. The most discouraging part of the advance accounts of the alleged wedding day is that each lovely little Item which would go far to make the event an absolute certainty ts gently dissipated when a new link in the chain of facts is discovered and upon to the same finish. Senator Elkins' determination not to add any news he may dianapolis, to be present at the unveiling of the statue of former President Harrison on Tuesday, the 27th.

In this case she has kept ii so well that the closest of her acquaintances have absolutely no more information as to tne certainty of a nearby wedding day than the rest of the folks who are wondering what all the mystery is about. While her friends know that the duke is madiy in love with the girl he wishes to marry and that he has not asked for a dot because he thoroughly understands the American views on that great objection to international weddings, nobody is able to say definitely that the affections of the young lady are tngaged by her royal suitor or that she is a bit dazzl-d by the extraordinary publicity which she has received. The situation may be somewhat relieved, it is said, by the wise ones shortly after election, by which time the duke may be in this country and in a position to state exactly the outcome of his wooing.
