MARRIED-Tuesday, February 2Sth, at 80
O'Clock P, NJ, at the residence of the brides
father at Beleview, Mo-. by Rev. J. Hick-
man, of ST. Louis, Mr.. JOHN G. HORN to
Miss LILLE BUFORD.
The groom was formerly of Bellevicw, but
now holds position at the new mines near
Pennington, Mo. He is well-known here
and is a most estimable young man, respect
ed and admired by all. The bride is the
daughter of Mr.. VIM. Buford, of Belleview,
and has just returned from an extended visit
to relatives in the East. She will be greatly
missed by her friends, especially the church,
where she has been organist for the past few
years. The bride aud groom had no attend
ants, but the opening strains of the wedding
march, performed by Miss Minnie Horn, of
Iron Mountain, gave due notice of the ap-
proach of the bridal pair.
The ceremony was short, but very impress
sive. One of the features of this ceremony
was, that not word was said about the wife
obeying her husband. Certainly this part of
the above will commend it to all the young
ladies to such an extent that they will not
fail to have Bro. Hickman otflciate when
| they start on like journey. After having
received congratulations, the newly welded
couple led the way to the spacious dining
room, where everything that could tempt
the appetite was spread.
The brides costume was combination of
silk and Henrietta cloth. The skirt was
made perfectly plain, thereby showing to
better advantage the richness of its material,
| which was blue watered silk, upon the waves
| of which were thrown spheres of satin shade
| lighter. The waist and drapery were of
| cloth, the color being zinc that extremely
dainty shade which cannot properly be call
| ed pale blue, and yet suggests it, which is
| not dove gray and yet wants to persuade
one that it is, and which eventually succeeds
in proving itself to the most charming mix
ture of blue and gray Imaginable. The tab
| lier was long and much looped. The bodice
was very simple in outline. Between its
reyers of silk was inserted V-shaped waist
coat of the cloth, entirely overlaid with
beaded passementerie, so that the material
| itself was only visible through the decora-
ton. The bride wore light gray gloves and
| carried large bouquet of roses. To complete
| this costume for other occasions is a zinc
beaded wrap, lined throughout with rose
colored satin, a small bonnet trimmed in
ribbon loops and pink roses, bride of dark
blue velvet and muff to match.
| Only few intimate friends and near rela-
| tives were present, among whom were Misses
Minnie and Fannie Horn and Mr.. Jamison
Iron Mountain; Mr.. Robert Horn, Bismarck
Mr.. and Mrs. Clifton, (Ree Lottie Buford)
Des Arc; Miss Ella Black, Piedmont; Mr.
and Mrs. s. E. Buford, 1ronton; Mrs. Jas

NJ. Mari and I'll. Palmer, of Belleview. The

presents-more than is usually seen at q
small wedding. Every one went away wei
satisfied, pronouncing it uerg nice wed.

best wishes for the health and happiness Of
/ the bride and groom. A GUEST.
