to DR.. r. w. Anderson.
Central Union Church wore fes-
tai appearance last night, with it's
interior adorned for the marriage of
DR.. r.. w. Anderson and Miss Susan
Alice Young. The front of the audi
forum looked like conservatory
with palms, ferns and other plants
on and about the platform. Sprigs
of fern decked the organ pipes and
luxuriant vine wreaths fringed the
choir loft. Silk ribbons twined with
delicate green tendrils fell from
either side of the arch to the choir
railing. Aloft to the right of the
platform swung massive festoon of
golden shower gathered in tennis
net, making beautifully effective as
we'll as novel decoration.
Eight o'clock was the hour fixed
for the ceremony, and by that time
large congregation had assembled,
including many guests by invitation.
Prof. j. Q. Wood and Mr.. E. Benner
we're the ushers. Mr.. f. M. Wake
field was seated at the organ and
for more than quarter of an hour
before the ceremony RECALLED the
people with selections on that in
strument.
AS the brides party entered by the
left aisle and the groom's party by
the right, the organist played the
Lohengrin bridal march. The bride
was leaning OH the arm of her father,
Mr.. Alex. Young, and preceded by
Miss Young and Miss Vida, brides
maids, and Miss Bertha Young, maid
of honor. Dr. Anderson was attend
ed by his best man, Mr. w. Porter
Boyd, United States Vice Consul
General, and conducted to the front
by the ushers. Rev. e. G.. Beckwith,
D. D., pastor of Central Union, unit
ed the couple in the beautiful cere-
mony of the American Episcopal
Church. The groom repeated the
words that gave him life partner
in tones clear enough to be heard in
the farthest recess of the galleries.
At the close of the impressive cere-
mony the party departed by the
right aisle direct to their carriages.
Mr.. Wakefield saluted the stately
procession with the noble strains of
Memberships wedding march.
Beautifully and becomingly ar
rayed in gown of white corded silk,
trimmed with lace and lilies of the
valley, and wearing the usual veil
with head piece of lilies of the
valley, the bride was the admiration
of all beholders. The couple was a
handsome one beyond the conven-
tional significance of the term. With
the bridesmaids in pink silk, carry
ing bouquets of pink carnations, and
the maid of honor in an empire
gown of cream Grape over silk, carry
ing bouquet of yellow roses, the
bridal procession was exceedingly
pretty. 1t was joined on retiring by
Mrs. Young on her husbands arm
and the other members of their
family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Young gave an cat

a very large invitation list and the

vines; palms and ferns were placed
