St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1890-07-20

Now that the summer season is fully
launched upon us, society is relegated
to the lakes where cool winds blow and
the evening air comes laden with the
freshness of the spray of water and the
perfume of meadow blossoms and locust
beds, leaving the city itself lonesome
and dull in places where the sound OF
music and Scurrying of feet in the may
dance holds forth during the winter
months. But summer is not with US
always, and soon again will autumn
breeZes blow and the night dews be-
come all too suggestive of froSts to make
wandering under the moonlight clad i'll
gauzy garments thing to be desired.
Then the lake 'lounger will pack his
grip, the city house will throw open
again its hospitable doors, CHEEKY fires
will burn in the CRATES, and again will
the invitation to the dance reception and
fete be received with expressions of
Joy, and the fair habitueS of society will
flock to the halls and parlors of the
festive friend, and again coquet under
the winter gaslight.

The festivities connected with the
marriage of Miss Louise Merriam,
daughter of a. 3. Merriam, to III. n.
Timolat, of Duluth, created quite lit
tie stir in social circles last week. The

lin Avenue NJ. Z. church, performed the

fully decorated with an abundance Of
smilax, ferns. ported plants and cut
flowers, and after the sixty guests had
assembled the pretty home wore quite
a fete-day appearance. The bride was
the recipient of more than usually
large number of beautiful and costly
wedding gifts, which were displayed to
the admiring party. Mr.. and Mrs. Tim
olaf left on their wedding trip in the
evening. They will spend some time

Many Minneapolis society people who
yet remain in town signify their inten
ton of going to Hotel st. Louis for the
week to be present at the festivities
connected with the tennis tournament,
to be given under the auspices of the
CheQuemagaun and Grasshopper Ten
mis- clubs. OF course, all society people
are not tennis crankS, but all can enjoy
the dances, concerts, excursions and
sailing parties to which the evenings
will be devoted. From the present out
look the arrangements have been so
elaborate that the week will be one of
the gayest that has yet been provided
for the delectation of the social public.
1t is also probable that there will be
several little affairs offered the visitors
from the East, which will be given in
some of the mansions of the city after
the festivities at the lake have closed,
and it is limited that preparations are al
ready under way toward the fulhllment
of the idea.
The china wedding celebrated by M.
]. Galpinl and wife to immortallze the
twentieth anniversary of their mar
riage Wednesday evening at their resi-
denee, 1928 Sixth street southeast, was
quite a brilliant affair, in which no less
than sixty OF the friends of the family
participated. A novel feature of the
occasion was the repetition of the mar
riage ceremony, which was gone
through under the guidance of Rev. w.
p Mckee Of the oliyet Baptist dsIe church. 1ers
received by the happy couple, the most
elaborate being present from Mrs.
GaEpin's mother of a handsome set of
china over 100 years old. Not the least
priced were the many heartfelt wishes
of long life and happiness extended by
the guests ere the party broke up.
