Miss Sarah Flandrau. youngest daugh-
ter of Judge and Mrs. G. E. Flandrau.
was married at the family residence
last evening at 6 o'clock to Frank w.
Cutcheon,of Michigan, son OF Congress
man Cutcheon of that state. The cere-
mony was performed by Rt. Rev. Bishop
Gilbert. There were present only the
immediate relatives of the bride and
groom. They were Judge and Mrs.
Charles E. Fandrau, Gen.and Mrs. b. Nj.
Cutcheon, of Michigan. the gro0m'S par
ents JMr. and Mrs. Tilden r. Selmes. Miss
Dinsmore, of Kentucky; Charles Elan
drau Jr., Blair Flandrau and Miss lSa-
bella Selmes, the little daughter OF Mr..
and Mrs. Selmes, who was maid OF
honor. The entire lower portion OF the
residence was converted for the nonce
into a floral bower, beautiful enough III
its varied and tasteful cOlorlng to har-
Dor a band of fairies or fairy bride.
Roses were predominant everywhere;
white roses and red, damaSk and yell
low. each bud and blossom struggling
with the rest to appear lovelier, IT pos
sible, than they. and all alike diffuslng
through the halls and corridors OF the
house perfumes sWeeter than those Tor
winch fair Araby once was famed.
Hidden almost by the waving plumes OF
tail shrubs and ferns, SeiDerts orches-
ira none the less surely made its pres
ence known. From the peep o. day
until almost the hour appointed for the
wedding, presents were arriving. 10
attempt enumeration were useless.
They came from all over the city. and
from every one of the legion of friends
of the fair Young bride. One apartment
was devoted entirely TO the reception Of
wedding gifts. and sOrely its capacity
was tried. The alcove Of the library,
in which the bride and groom
stood during the ceremony, was
trimmed and intertwined with Easter
lilies. About them on every side were
flowers of all sorts, but not one whose
color lacked harmony with the costumes
of the wedding party. The principals
were preceded to the spot by Miss
Isabella Selmts, whose pretty face was
coached. evidently at tremendous effort,
into an expression becOmlngly demure.
The little lady carried a magnificent
bouquet of roses, and went through her
part of the programme with charm
ing childish dignity, The parents
of both the young people stood on either
side during the reading of the service,
and the others we're naSSed in such
manner as to complete very handsome
group. The orchestra gave mutf1ed
pealing of bells, the effect of which was
curious and unusual. 1t seemed that
every church bell in the city was ring
ing an independent chime, and
that by some wonderful phenomenon
they all blended i'll harmony. AT
the close of the ceremony the chimes
were muffled no longer. They broke
into joyful ringing, and cOngratnla-
tons were in order. The bride wore an
exquisite costume of white satin and
tulfe, and looked thoroughly charming.
Miss Selmes, the Tiny maid of honor,
was also in white. The reception be-
gun at $50 and continued until 9
O'clock. In speaking of those
who were there it is I'M
necessary to print their names.
Every one was there. All the young
people who had grown up with Miss
Flandrau, and to whom she was almost
a sister, and all their elders, who have
known Judge Flandrau since away back
in the fortieS. By 1870 the residence
was filled from end to end with guests.
and until 8 O'Clock there was merry
making galore. MIR. and Mrs. Cutcheon
took the late train last night for New
York city.

The reception given last evening at

sey County Royal Arcanum, was very
enjoyable affair in every sense of the
word. The singing of the Hayden Male

ateur performance. The guests num-
bered several hundred.
