1t is the season for weddings, undCubted-

chronicle one or more. In this connection,
however, one that is worthy of more than
passing attention was that which took place
Yesterday morning near Bunceton, Cooper
county. The occasion was the marriage Of
Miss Lulu Doran, the handsome and INTEL
ligent eldest daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. B
F. Doran, the former a prominent farmer
and stock dealer of Cooper county,
and DIR. S. c. James, a we'll known and
successful young physician of Holden.
The ceremony took place at eight O'Clock
in the parlor of the family residence in the
presence of large number OF relatives and
friends. Rev. c. G. Woods, ID. ID. of the
Methodist Episcopal church OF Kansas
CITY. was the officiating minister, and il is
seldom marriage ceremony is performed
in a more beautiful or impressive manner
than this one.
The attendants were Miss Mary BelleWalb-
Real, of St. Louis.
The bride was attired in an elegant toilet
of pheasant brown and cream brocsde rich
ly combined With seal brown velvet. The
underskirt was made with panelings OF the
velvet with draperies OF the brocade. The

back. Her ornaments were Of diamonds

AS fact worth recording, the brOcade, OF
which this handsome costume was made,
was brought from England by the brides
mother, prior to her birth.

ing the trosseau, was an evening costume
of italian linen, trimmed with a profusion
of real Valencennes lace. With this cos
tune was tastefully adorned white hat.

eros grain ribbon. A small hat to match,
finished the costume.
In addition to these dresses were several

blood satin, enc of black silk and one OF
wine colored silk.
The bridesmaid wore a travelling cos
tune of seal brown made very tastefully,
and at the left side wore bOquet of nat
ural flowers.
After the words which had made the
twain one were spoken, and the kisses,
tears and congratulations which are usual

the company adjourned 10 the dining room
where wedding breakfast was laid upon
three long tables. These latter were dec
GRATED in a most tasteful manner, with
