of General Dimond.

Society celebrated one of the most nota-
Bile events of this season last evening.
The occasion was the marriage of Miss
Eleanor Dimond, eldest daughter of Gen.
eral W. II. Dimond, and Paul Jarboe.
The engagement of the couple was not
made public until about three weeks ago.
Its announcement set society on the qui
viye for the coming event. the wedding,
but it was not generally believed that the
latter would follow so soon after the in
tsntions of the principals were made
known.
General Dimond himself is credited with
having first alluded to the date fixed for
the matrimonial ceremony. He impaired
the news sem-confidentially to some of
his acQuaintsnces when the Country Club
met at Del Monte. Soon that organiZa-
ton and its guests at the shoot were all
agog with expectation. Miss Dimond's
friends are more than numerous, Mr..
Jarboe's are likewise, so overwhelming &
congratulations were ShoWered upon the
young people.
Long before the hour of o'clock last
evening the new Trinity Church at the
corner of Cough aud Bush streets was
crowded to the doors with invited guest g.
The formality Of presenting cards of ad-
was. for, though the ushers and door
keepers in the persons of Messrs Joseph
Tobin, Gus Taylor, Peter Martin, E. NJ.
Greenway, Sheldon, McMurtry, Owen
Randall and Miner worked hard at receiv-
ing and seating the guests, they were
almost overcome by force of numbers. At
half-past O'Clock they were obliged to
admit that there was not a seat unoccu-
pied in the church.
No very elaborate attempt had been
made to decorate the main portion of the
edifice, but the chancel was profusely
decked with graceful palms and ferns,
arranged tastefully and softened in color
by the half-hidden lights of incandescent
lamps. The altar was made beautiful
with simple but artistic decorations, all
blending with the charming outlines of the
ferns and palms at either hand.
The strains of stringed instruments rem
dering the Wedding march caused fiutter
of SuOdued excitement to come over the
vast audience. The bride and groom ana
their attendants entered by the main aisle
OF the church. Samuel Knight acted as
best man, Miss Mae Dimond acted as maid
# honor. and Miss Kathryn Jarboe. Miss
Kate Clement, Miss Laura McKinstry,
Miss Laura Bates. Miss Alice Hobart,
Miss Ella Hobart, Miss Mamie Holbrook
and Minnie Houghton as bridesmaids.
Rev. DR.. Walk, the rector of Trinity,
performed the ceremony.
Miss DimoDd, now Mrs. Jarboe, is tall
demi-brunette Of statuesque figure and
faultless bearing. Her handsome bridal
attire showed her many charms to great
advantage. The gown was of white satin
plain but elegant with Overskirt of white
Indian muslin. The jupe was cut en- train,
and across the front was finished off with
three light ruff1es Of Indian muslin. A
heavy tulle veil was fastened to the
