AHAPPY EvEsr.-The NJ. Z. Church of
this place was the scene of brilliant we'd
ding on Tuesday evening of last week, Mr..
Emery F. Warden, of Johnstown, and Miss
Maggie Sipe, of Somerset, were the parties
thus happily joined together by Rev. A. c.
johnson, assisted by Rev. w. L. McGrew.
The church was neatly decorated with
wreaths, ferns and flowers. A beautiful
floral horseshoe, which was placed in front
of the altar attracted much attention. The
bride was attired in dress of cream-colored
satin, very richly trimmed in lace. Orange
blossoms and veil added to the already
beautiful toilet The bridesmaids were
Miss Martha Warden, of Johnstown, and
Miss Annie C. Sanner, who were richly
dressed in keeping with that of the bride.
Fred w. Biesecker. ESQ.,, of Somerset, and
Mr.. George Masters, of Johnstown, were
the groomsmen, and in that position SEEM
ed quite at home The attentive and gen.
tlemanly ushers, Ned Z. Kiernan, James E.
Biesecker, George B. Baer and John S. Sny
der were promptly on hand, to see that all
were comfortably seated. The church was
filled with the most fashionable audience,
the elite of the town being there. Miss Ella
Schell presided at the organ, and as the
sweet strains of Memberships wedding
march was heard, the bridal party entered,
and was soon in front of the altar, where
the impressive and beautiful ceremony that
made them one was spoken. All eyes were
turned to the really handsome bride as she
walked down the aisle, and many were the
husband. Immediately after the ceremony
at the church, reception was held at the
residence of the bride, on East Main street.
This was attended by the immediate friends
of Mr.. and Mrs. Warden, and was a most
delightful affair. Supper was served at
go p NJ. and like all the other arrange
ments, was complete. A right merry time
was had until 11:30 p. NJ, when special
train took the entire party to lockwood,
where the happy couple took the train for
the east. After visiting Washington, Balti-
more, Philadelphia and other cities of the
east they will return to Johnstown, their
future home, and where Mr. Warden holds
one of the best positions in the gift of the
Cambria Iron Company. Miss Sipe is the
only daughter of Mrs. Lydia Sipe. of this
place, and was not only one of the most
beautiful, but had endeared herself to her
many friends by the sweetness of her life.
We cannot but congratulate Mr.. Warden in
securing such lovely companion. and the
best wishes of all are assured for their future
welfare and happiness. They were the re-
clpients of many presents, all of which had
been selected with taste, combining the use
tul and the beautiful.
