The ceremony was that prescribed by the
Catholic church and was performed by Rev.
Father Deehan. During its continuance,
The immense audience had an opportunity
to view the toilets OF the ladies, which
were as follows:
Each lady. as the head must be covered,
wore a iaunty little bonnet, OF hors =shoe
design, composed OF ecru illusion and
flowers They were very neat and intense
" becoming.
The bride is q handsome lady, of pro-
nounced blonde type, and looked charm
ing in her wedding dress, which was made
in the Sara Bernhardt style, and composed
of pearl satin meIveilleuN, with pearl
passernenterie. Her ornaments were gar
nets and diamonds, the latter the present
of the groom. Altogether the costume was
chaste and elegant and very becoming to
the graceful wearer.
Miss Agnes Hess, the first bridesmaid, a
petite young lady, neither blonde nor bru-
nette, was clad in an ecru satin dress,
adorned with pearl embroidery and point
lace. Her jewels were canoes and dia-
monds.
Miss Ella Hoffman, daughter of John G..
Hoffman, Esq, looked we'll ia cream
bunting, with ecru satin overdreSs, and
point lace and diamonds.
Miss Lizzie Renner, daughter OF Herman
Renner, Esq, of the Fifth ward, very
design and material to the above, with the
exception that Russia lace furnished the
trimming, and pearls were her ornaments.
Miss Laura Schandein, a petite and
charming Philadelphienne, was handsome
" clad IN costume OF the same kind, save
that point lace ornamented it, and herself
was adorned with pearls.
The gentlemen wore morning dress and
each had a delicate bOWtONHiere.
The groom is the third son OF Christian
Hess, Esq, and has already become known
as an enterprising young business man,
who will make his mark in commercial
cilcles The bride is the eldest daughter
of Mr.. John Frank, of the Fifth Ward.
At So'CloCk last evening, reception was
rendered the newly married pair by Mr.. T..
Hess. A large number OF invitations had
been issued, and as no private residence
would begin to contain the guests, Ger
mania Hall was secured. Even its space
seemed inadequate to the immense CON
course of friends who gathered. The bridal
marty, for the early hours of the evening,
occupied the western end of the hall, where
congratulations poured thickly in upon
them. The floor was then cleared for
dancing and to the music of the full Opera
House Orchestra, the favorite amusement
was carried on, until late hour.
The supper room was thrown open at III
o'clock, revealing two long and handsome
" decorated tables. which were laden with
the results of Jos. Bakers skill in the cult
nary art. The wedding supper passed oil
very nicely and dancing was again re-
sumed.
The bride and the groom left for the
East by the 80 train, on the b. Il o., fol-
lowed by good wishes innumerable, IN
which the REGISTER joins with hearty good
will.
