SILVER WEDDING.

In spite of the unpleasant weather on Saturday, May 13, about 50 friends and relatives attended the 25th anniversary of Dr and Mrs John G. Stevens and very delightful party it was. Friends from Brooklyn, New York, Bridgepor New Haven and Birmingham were pres ent. A beautiful silver tea set was pre- sented by the Beardsley family and many gifts from the other guests. Mrs Minnie Cone of New Haven recited poem writ ten for the occasion. An elegant colla- tion was served. The bona fide loaf of wedding cake made ? years ago was cut for the occasion.
 ANOTHER REPORT OF THE FESTIVITIES.
 On May 13, 1868, it poured. On that day, John c. Stevens and A. Elma Beardsley were made one. May B, 1893, was an exact counterpart of the same day ? years ago, and pr and Mrs Stev- ems celebrated their wedding anniversary despite the weather. Their always pleasant and tasteful home was made more attra ;tive and cosy than usual, the air of the rooms being heavy with the perfume of flowers, while in the back parlor were displayed the very beautiful remembrances of their friends. In the dining room the table groaned beneath the viands spread thereon. The center piece was a beautiful cut glass, rising from base of pink china silk and smi- lax. At one end of the table was the brides cake of p years ago beautifully iced, and decorated with '6S-'93 in the center, surrounded by a wreath of silver leaves. Although it stormed so hard out side and the sun did not show it's face, the A guests present did not know but what it was one of the pleasantest days that ever dawned, for all was warmth and sunshine inside. A beautiful and appropriate poem written especially for the occasion, was read by the authoress, and received with much applause.
