St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1889-12-01

The most captiOuS society critic could
have found no fault with the state of
affairs in st. Paul last week. Perhaps
Ii is true, as is stated, that no more
brilliant social epoch ever passed over
the city than at present. The week
which includes Thanksgiving day is al
ways gay with events. and the past six
DAYS have been no exception to the rule.
The reception given to the German club
by Mr.. and Mrs. 7. l.. Schumacher on
Wednesday evening was the swell event
of the week-the social sun about which
the lesser events reYOlVed as satellites.
Every feature Of it, even includ-
ing the figures of the german, was
q novelty, and to lead them all
was the appearance of a large turkey
standing over five feet III height. This
was drawn into the room by celOred rib
bOns 10y four young society ladies. Misses
EampIey. Stephenson. GotZian and
Hamilton. As the bird entered the par
Tors drawn by these four ladies the Or
rheStra played an appropriate barn yard
chorus. Following the turkey was the
eXecutioner with an axe. This was Mr..
AgneW. In this bird were stored the
favOrs, which were of silver and eX-
ceedingly pretty. These faYors were
dispensed by Mrs. A. X. Rarnum and
Mrs. Charles J. Allen. Each recipient
Of favor found attached a card on
which was the name of the partner to
whom he should present the favor.

The coming event of the week will be
brilliant double wedding. for which
society has held pleasurable anticipa-
tiOnS for some weeks. 1t will occur at
St PauI's church on Wednesday next at
5 p. IN. The parties most interested are
prominent leaders in st. Paul's most eX-
elusive society, and the event of the
wedding is attracting almost universal
interest. At that time Ether Leonard |
Shepley will wed Miss Sophia Penn |
Perrin, and John Edwards Stryker will |
wed Miss Virginia LangdOn Perrin.
The Misses Perrin are daughters of DR..
and Mrs. Glover Perrin, Miss Elizabeth
be the maids of honor, the former for
Miss Sophia Perrin and the latter for
Miss Virginia Perrin. The best men will
be E. A. Jaggard for Mr.. StTyker and
Mr.. Perkins. of Portland, Me-. for Mr..
Shepley. The uSheFS will be MesSrs.

There are many brilliant weddings in
store for the future, and every day
brings its rumor of betrothals in so
cietY. The latest announcement is the
engagement of Miss Nina Smith.
daughter of Mayor r. A. Smith, to-
Arthur Hallet Page, of Boston. There
are many others. but their publication
at this time would be little premature.
