The marriage of MIR. Edwin b. winsate of
Kansas City, and Miss Alice E. Waddell, Of
this city, at the Baptist church, Wednesday
night, was an event that will long be
BY those who witnessed it.. The church was
filled with an audience representing the beauty
and fashion OF Lexington, all eager to see and
be seen, and to pay this mark of respect to the
beautiful and popular young lady about to
become u bride. AT nine O'Clock Mr.. and
Mrs. Waidell, followed by 4 large number
of friends from 4 distance, walked down the
western aisle, and occupied front seats, which
had been reserved for them, and for the next
few minutes all was anxiety to secure the best
possible view of the bridal party. They were
not long Kept in suspense. Under the skIllful
fingers OF Pref. Gimbel, the organ rang out the
wedding March," and the party slowly
marched in. First came Miss Susie Waddell,
escorted by Mr.. Coppinger, of Holden. Mo then
Miss Fannie Samuel, of st. Louis, and Mr..
John Reid. of Kansas City; Miss Susie SlayDack,

positions III front OF the audience, when DIR.
Talbird, after II fervent prayer, and a short
lecture on the solemnity of marriage, proceeded
to make them one flesh, using q ''ring ceremo-

, ern aisle. and the audience arose. and murmurs
OF admiration were heard on all sides.
From the church about two hundred persons
