Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-11-23

{ p3H''%
A bride and groom that represent two of
the prominent social families of the very
aristocratic State of Virginia are in the city
just at present and are the recipients of a
great deal of attention. But, sad to relate,
the attention is not of the nature usually be-
slowed upon bridal couple in the shape of
receptions, teas, parties and luncheons. No,
indeedl 1t is the attention given by skilled
physicians, trained nurses and kind friends,
whose thoughtfulness and watchfulness do
much to Tighten the gloom of the long
weary hours of the honeymoon, that, through
the unfortunate railroad accident at New
Florence recently, are being spent in the
West Penn Hospital.
The Wednesday preceding the disaster
was the wedding day of this young couple,
and with all the brilliancy that wealth and
high social position could command the
nuptials were celebrated at the home of the
brides parents, between Warrenton and
Manassas Junction, in Virginia. A long
list OF bridal attendants, among which, as
maid OF honor, appeared Miss Clarkson, the
daughter of DR.. Clarkson, the quarantine
physician at Fortress Monroe, assisted at the
ceremony that transformed Miss Carter into
Mrs. DuIany, and, with a number of guests
representing the wealth and aristocracy of
that locality, made the Carter mansion ring
with merriment until the departure of
the newly-married couple for Washington,
DC.
The Unfortunate Wedding Trip.
There, Emma Juch, in Carmen" passed
away pleasant evening, and the wedding
journey was continued on the ill-fated train.
The injuries received by the young couple,
however, are not, as was at first feared, fatal.
Ii all goes well they will be able, in the
course of a month or so, to return to their
Southern home or pursue their journey to
Duluth, their future place of residence,
where Mr.. Dulany is a prominent real estate
dealer.
In the meantime, in private apartment at
the hospital, surrounded by every luxury
that wealth and influence can procure, are
Mr.. and Mrs. Dulany. who have in their
brief stay in the city, in spite of their great
suffering, made friends innumerable. Ac-
cording TO DR.. John Dickson, who took
charge of the case al the request OF mutual
Southern !riends the bride is a beauti ul
girl-a typical Southerner. She has most
glorious eyes, perfect teeth, clear-cut features
and a complexion of exquisite coloring
She is possessed also of a wonderful grace
and charm of manner. talented and accom-
plished.
The groom is likewise Southerner in eyery

allowance of manly beauty, of a high order of
intellect, and wide and varied attaInments,
with 4 decided air of to-the-manor-born.
Attending them during their illness is Miss
Carter, a sister of the bride, who came on i'm
mediately, with gentleman escOrt-a valued
friend of the family-and Mr.. Dulany's busl-
ness partner, from Duluth. Virginia friends
are in CONSERVATION over the unfortunate
affair, but the reassuring kilograms sent by in
terested persons at this end of the line have
partially allayed their fears, and they are now
anXiOusly awaiting the recovery of the favorites
who, as one fair letter-writer put ii, never
before seemed so dear"
Pleasures of Thanksgiving.
Preparations for Thanksgiving Day have oc-
cupied the attention of society largely during
the past week, and everything has been sug-
gestive of the coming holiday, even to the an
nual dinners served by the ladies in the diff
ferent churches, whose marked superiority

Coal Smoke and Pretty Faces
"PIttsburg is becoming dreadfully smoky.
Isn't il too bad?" said fascinating little So
ciety woman the other evening as she curled
herself up in great big upholstered chair be-
fore the CRATE fire. She was gowned in a lovely
creation of pure white silk and delicate blue
brocade, Sort of a tea gown, and with her
lovely hair BRAIDED in two braids and dressed in
the manner that "Amorita,' in the Pauline
