The Episcopal church Of this city
was filled to oyerhowing with a fash
ionable audience this morning at II
o'clock, to witness the marriage o.
Miss Lula Trigg, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. T. b. Trigg, to Mr.. Rush II
Davis, of Newport, Ark. The cere-

Benners, of Jefferson, Tex, and was
followed by a reception to the bridal
party and relatives Of the family, at
the home of the BRIDES parents, on
the East side
1t was beautiful wedding, and the
decorations which extended through
out the church, were Of the most
elaborate description; garlanded here
and there with artistic touches OF
flowers and eyergreens-Gll seemed
transformed into bower of floral
beauty, almost tropical with its profu-
sion of fragrance. As the notes OF
Mendellaohn's Wedding March, rem
dered by Miss Davis and Mr.. Motley
sounded, the ushers advanced to the
door of the church. where they
met the bridemaids and were joined
by the entire bridal party The bride
entered with her maid of honor, Miss
Pauline Trigg, and met the groom at
the chancel rail, where he was in wait
ing. The nuptials were then solemn
lied, according to the beautiful ritual
of the Episcopal church.
The bride, Miss Trigg, handsome
brunette, wore an exquisite gown OF
white satin brocade, the court train
dounced with rolls of silk and velvet,
and the decollete bodice was finished
with pearls and rare lace. The tulle
veil, which fell in misty folds to the
bottom Of the train, was fastened to
the dark brown hair with jewelled
pins and orange blossoms, and the
bouquet she carried was Of the same
rich flowers; gloves and slippers OF
snowy whiteness, completed this lovely
costume. The maid Of honor, little
Miss Pauline Trigg, neice of the bride,
looked fascinating, in white India
silk. The bridemaids, four number
Misses Dot Robinson, Carrie Taylor,
Burke Lewis and Johanna Costin,
were tastefully and stylishly gowned
in white, carrying profusin of flow
ers held with satin ribbons. The
groomsmen, were Mr.. G. Ander-
son, of Newport best man, Messrs.
WA. Mccartney, d. w. Davis
j. White and b. Smith, who also act
ed in the role Of ushers, and were at
tired in correspondence to the groom,
Mr.. r. II. Davis, in black broadcloth,
full dress.
A luncheon followed the wedding,
at the home Of the bride, enjoyed only
by the bridal party, family and those
who assisted. The decorations of the
home were in harmony with those at
the church, giving accent and emphasis
to the already brilliant scene there en-
acted, aud creating around the bride a
poetic suggestiyeness Of love and or
ange blossoms. The array Of presents
was unusually elegant.
Miss Trigg, reared in Texarkana,
needs no introduction, and her many,
many friends are delighted TO hear she
has linked her future with one cul-
tured in education and admirable in
character. If sincere and numerous
congratulations Of friends are the pre-
lude of happiness, then indeed may
Miss Lula and Mr. Davis feel the in
sinuating presence Of "a rose here DER
their russet cares LONE.
