4 brilliant wedding.

One of those pleasant events which
the newspaper reporter finds pleasure
in attending occurred at Rowlesburc
on Tuesday morning, February Z, 'Ss.
1t was the marriage Of Mr.. William
Il. Maloney, of Tunuolton. to Miss
Bridget II Gilmore. Of Eowlesburg.
The ceremony was performed in the
Catholic Church by the Rev p. \.
Boyce, who rendered the usual beauti-
ful service Of the Church in "A very inn
pressive manner. Miss Della ConiT pre-
sided at the organ and, as the party en-
tered the church, played a wedding
march in brilliant style. The bride
wore dress of cream satin and MORE,
trimmed in Naleuciennes lace and rib
bons. But to describe the personale
OF the happy couple would be task
b. no means contemplate for a moro
graphic pen than mine, hence let it suf-
flee to say that they had as many gifts
and graccs as kind Dame Fortune and
good Mother Nature could bestow
without beggaring the rest of human
ity They had youth, health and
beauty, par excellence, heightened, en-
HANGED and rendered more attractive
and conspicuous by the genuine good
piety, purity, modcsty and innocent APP
pearance Of the fair once. If ever a
match was made in Heaven, as the
legend goes, this was, because they
suited each other as the fossil does its
earthen berth
As for the wedding feast. it was
really regal. Lucullus, the gormand,
and lIilogabalus, the epicure, would
feel not only satisfied, but thankful,
extending their cxtrcmities under a
table SO beautifully and beautifully
decked. Everything that money and
culinary art could procure and produce
was there in abundance, and the smil-
ing eountonances and happy faces of
the numerous quests who sat at the
table denoted happiness, pleasure and
satisfaction.
Mr.. and Mrs. Maloney went on q
wedding tour to Washington and Bal
tilnorc. When they return they will
come to Tunnelton to reside whore Mr..
Maloney Is employed as telegraph opc-
rator. 1t would be waste of words
to say that the Tunnelton people ex-
tend to them n hearty welcome. The
presents were numerous and costly, a
