THE MISUNDERSTANDING the social
events in Austin of this season was the
wedding at the Congregational church
last Wednesday evening, when Alex. II
Loucks and Miss Mary L. Engle were
united in marriage. The church was
beautifully decorated by kind and loving
friends for the occasion. Spanning the
rostrum, was large arch, bound with
evergreen and trimmed with white fow-
ers, from the center of which was sus-
pended the symbolistic marriage bell.
These with the flowers and other floral de-
signs, attracted general attention, and was
admired by the many friends who were
hidden 10 the marriage ceremony. The
ushers were Mcssrs. Geo. Fish, John
Fisher, Luther Wheeler and Eli Steven
son. An orchestra comprised Of Miss
Lottie johnson organis,, Charlie Wilbour

coursed the sweetest music we have ever
listened to by home talent. At the APP
pointed time the wedding party entered
tAe church, the bride leaning upon the
arm of her groomsman, taking the right
aisle, and the bridegroom and brides
ts,naid the left aisle, while UP the center
aisle walked six sweet little fairies in
white, as bridesmaids, bearing as incense,
their lovely boquets for this new altar
which was now to be erected. The little
misses, who we're so happily honored
were Susie Basford, Clara Mandeyille,
Berthe Engle, Veta West, Goldie Roome
and Elrel Fleck. There was no CO ntu-
sion, each taking their prop er place.
