els inspected yesterday included a calling
gown Of dark olive green cloth. with heavy
rows of tailo-'s stitching at the foot and
with a long "Ialliere'' coat of the same ma
terial, tsilor-stitched at the bottom, and
made with a waist 80 short as scarcely to
reach below the arms. 10 this apology for
a body" wore stitched the deep coat skirts
in full box plaits and hanging evenly in
front and behind. Large triangular reve's
of olive green velvet turned back from the
breast and the sleeves were full and gath
cred in velvet cuffs at the elbows. close ecru
cloth sleeves coming from beneath the
cuffs and finishing In coat cuffs at the
hands.
This last century coat opened in front to
make generous display, of q long waistooat
of ecru cloth bordered with very narrow
black feather bands and fastening in a
straight seam in front running down al
most to the knees. A wide folded piece of
< cen velvet was the waist finish and the
hat suggested as an accompaniment was a
straightforward black velvet with huge
velvet bows held by a pearl buckle and with
long black plumes.
Almost equally novel was a walking gown
of cream and duskv maroon striped cloth,
cut on the bias, the lines running over the
figure diRRonally. The skirt was absolutely
plain and the bod CO was cut around Just
below the arms. finished with a black velvet
cord and filled in with a yoke of cream cloth
coming NJ in a standing collar under the
ears. On each shoulder was a wing-like
piece of cream colored faille. laid in plaits
and forming the semblance of a cape,
widely open in front, but coming more
nearly together behind. A wide sash of
cream silk fastened at the left of the waist
with a gold buckle and fell to the ground
in fringed ends. There was, if one chose
to complete the outfit, a big cream-colo red
felt picture hat with a wreath of velve,
leaves in autumn c%olorings.

to the empire styles while yet it does not

rector of the Episcopal Church in this town.
There were no attendants. The bride, a
pretty and popular lady, was becomingly
attired in robe of gray silk, and the groom,
though lust recovering from an attack of
pneumonia, never looked better in his SUIT of
black. The happy couple will make River
ton their future home, in which their many
friends believe naught but welded bliss will
be eyer found. Mr.. Kenner holds now, as he
has for some years. an important position in
the mechanical force of the Norfolk and
Western railroad company, and Mrs. Kenner
is general favOrite, because of her many
sterling traits of character and cheerfulness.
The presents to the bride were many and use
full.
The bride is sister of Mrs. J. B.
