SOCIAL SAUCE.

Everything points to the conclusion
that Derby day will be.as well as pub
lie holiday i'll st. Paul this year, the
occasion of the greatest society turn. out
of the year. All the livery stables have
orders in advance for every sort OF rig,
and every wheel in the city which can
turn will turn on Wednesday IN the
direction of Hamline. The enthusiasm
in Minneapolis regarding the events Oh
the ten day meeting is scarcely less
than that displayed in st. raul. Inc
coaching clubs in both cities Will be OUT
in full fig for the big day.
The number of society people who
went to Minnetonka yesterday to the
ppening of the tennis tournament Is
sufficient indication that interest In the
game is still keen, despite assertions
that 1t is on the wane. The croWu at
the hop to occur this evening VIII IN
clude the names Of some OF st. Pauls
fairest and best.
Those who are not at Minnetonka now
are in Duluth. This city is more inter-
ested in aquatic sport than most OF
those of the West, and great many
people who know tight race when
they see it have wendell their way
northward t0-where the Minnesota Boat
club men are struggling for supremacy
against the flower of Manitoba. The
Winnipeg four is said to be one of the
best crews ever sent out of the Domln-
ion. and the race will be worth seeing.
Judging from the number of boxes
sold and the names of the purchasers, 1t
seems that the grand stand on Derby
day should present the gaYest spectacle
ever seen at a Western race course.
With possible nine starters for the
principal event, the race itself should
be one of the greatest of the season.
Miss Ethel Green and Charles 81.
Benson were married yesterday morn
ing at 10 O'Clock at the residence OF MI.
and Mrs. Green, on Selby avenue, Kew.
White, of st. PauPS church, officiating.
The parlors in which the ceremony oc-
Cured were prettily decorated with cut
flowers and tropical foliage, and by
UNIQUE arrangement of Albert Green,
brother of the bride, chime
of wedding bells added to the
perfection of the arrangements.
Those present at the wedding
were Mr.. and Mrs. Fordyce, of Council
Bluffs, an aunt and uncle of the bride;
Mr.. and Mrs. Davis. Of Manchester
Park; Misses Leila Davis, Clara Hughes,
Marion, Alice and Nellie Benson, Sis
tiers of the groom, and MeSsrs. A. ii.
Talby, Walter Dunnewald, Cyrus
Phillips and Herbert Ray. Prior to the
decoration of the walls with evergreens
MIR. Green had secured a chime OF SIX
bells and hung them on the wall with
string attached. This he held
in his hand during the reading
of the service and at its conclusion
startled the entire family by ringing
out peal after peal of vigorous music
from behind the branches on the wall.
The effect was pleasing, and the idea
was original with the irrepresSible
younger brother. A reception lasting
an hour was held after the wedding, at
which many friends of the young
couple were present. Mr.. and Mrs.
Benson went to Niagara Falls for their
honeymoon.
