CUPID'S YOKE DONNED.
SALvATEONIsTs AND HlSTRIONS
HAVE PUBLIC WEDDINGS.
Two Pleasant Marital Events Last
Night Which Were Witnessed
by. Many Interested
Spectators.

There were fully 1000 people present
at the Park theater last night to witness
the double bin of The Streets of New
York and the marriage on the stage of
Miss Alma Smyrna and Mr.. Frank 9.
Thompson, both OF the Park Theater
Stock company.
The principal attraction of course was
the sure enough wedding, for after the
curtain went down on the last act, not a
single person in the immense theater
left his seat, and Notwithstanding the
fact that it was fully 80 minutes before
the stage could be reset, the audience
remained perfectly quiet, and not the
slightest sign of impatience was shown
in any part of the house.
Every member of the company
seemed to be laboring under great ex-
cltement and in consequence the per-
formnnce went OFF with more telling
effect than any yet given in this house.
At the end of the last act the manage
ment announced that the next thing on
the programme would be the wedding.
When the curtain was rung up the
management and several members of
the company were discovered on the
stage, which was handsomely set and
decorated with flowers end evergreens.
A large bell composed of white roses
hung from the center of the stage, and
as the contracting parties took their
places the other members filed in and
made pretty group.
The bride wss escorted in by Mr.. Fred
A. Cooper and Miss Anita Fallon acted
as bridesmaid and Mr.. Henry West
brook az beat man.
The wedding ceremony was performed
by Rev. James Campbell, pastor of the
First M. E. church, in most impress
Hive manner.
After the hsppy couple had been de-
clared man and wife amid rounds of APP
plause, Mr.. Arthur @. Sutherland of the
company stepped to the front and made
few remsrks, in which he paid the
newly -msrried pair q number of compli-
ments and wished them untold happi-
ness. He also, in the name of the COM
pany, presented them with number OF
handsome presents.
Both of the young people are natives
OF San Francisco, and have numbers of
friends not only on the coast, but
throughout the east.
