nuptial season was the marriage of Mr..
Henry Victor White and Miss Mary Sylvia
Moore, daughter of DIR. and Mrs. Richard G.
Moore, 2l9 South Thirty-ninth street,
Thursday at $ o'clock. There was no
attcmp at elaborate display, which
has become so much of a fad In these closing
century days, but, on the contrary, the sim
pliCfty and artistic effects wrought with
sniilax and chrysauthcmums were quite re-
frcshing.
The ceremony was performed in the south
drawing room of the handsome home under
a canopy of smilax suspended from the
chandelier and extending to the windows
on either side of the room. A pretty fur
rug served as a priedicu while Rev. JOIN
Williams of st. Barnabas road the service.
There werc roses and flowers placed
throughout the rooms, the most deliberately
decorated apartment being the dining room
which was rcdOlCnt with the scent OF vio-
let's, while pretty ribbons fell from the chan
dclicrs, fastened at the corners of the table
which was brilliant with cut glass silver can
-dclabra and all the pretty conceits That go
TO make Il dining room beautiful.
The wedding party entered from the north
hallway, Mr.. White, the groom, and Mr.. Nc.
Dougall, his best man, preceded by
the ushers, Mr.. Harry Jordan and MIR.
George, then came two sweet little maids,
Lille Moore and Lizzie Allen, as flower girls,
dressed in pure white, Miss Helen Moore,
the bridesmaid, came next, walking alone,
gowncd daintlly in green crepe and benga-
line, and lastly the bride, Miss Mary Moore,
accompanied by her father. The bride pre-
sented n rare picture OF girlish lovelinoss,
wearing a costume almost identical with the
one worn by her mother. Mrs, Moore, at her
wedding twenty-five years ago, a
lovely araphanc silk trimmed with
duchossc lace. the top of the bodice
being enriched with corded silk, n
diamond pendant sparklcd at the throat, a
gift from the groom, while the tulle veil,
which fell from the head to the feet. COM
plcted "a simple, yet eXquisitcly well de-
signed costume. During the ceremony aud
throughout tho reception, which followed
Immediately after, the Mandolin club played
swoetly, stationed in the main hallway
under the grand staircase.
One of the surprises of the evening oc.
Cured at 10 o'clock, when a delegation from
Tangier temple, Arabic Order of the Mystic
Shrine, catered the residence, and having
learned where tho bride and groom were
stationed, proceeded to present the sur
prised bridegroom with a complete silver
service, consisting OF knives, forks, spoons,
sugar spoon and butter knife, of an exquisite
pattern, Colonel II. G. Akin, iilustrious
potentate of Tangier, making a most felici-
tous speech of welcome. The delegation
representing Tangier was composed OF
Colonel II. c.. Akin, Judge Gustave Ander-
sou and j. 7. Robinson, who wore the
insignia of the shrino--fezes and tiger claws.
1t was so unexpected and so admirably
planned that Mr.. White found some diff
Guilty to reply, and as quietly as they came
the delegation left the house. Mr.. White
was the secretary of Tangier during its
period Of infancy and worked earnestly fol
the upbuilding of the swell order, and it was
in recognition of these services that the
officers of Tangier decided TO show Mr.
White how much they esteemed and
hOnOred him for his sterling work.
Mr.. and Mrs. White left Friday after
noon for New York and sail December 10 via
tho Britannia for London to spend the
Christmas holidays with Mr.. Whites father
who lives at Palace Road, Upper Norwood
Surrey, England. Mr.. White is oneo of Omaha:

sense of the word, having been connected
with the firm of G.. n. Dietz, the lumberman

better mated, and having been a love mattel

England" Mrs. Whites go away gown
