charming identity has been dimmed
by her brilliant transformation into
Mrs, Will A. Mccartney, the wife of
one who embodies all the attributes
which amalgamate a man. This
| transformation was effected at one
of the most interesting and brilliant
hymenal gatherings ever seen in
Texarkana. The social web of con-

realization of cloves young dream"
The trousseau of this winsome
bride has been pronounced both
elegant and tasteful, and includes
very modish, calling street and
evening gowns with perfect toilet
accessories. Likewise had the pro-
posed decorations, going away and
the like been discussed, yet no one
was prepared for the pretty scene
which greeted the passage into st
James church on yesterday even

the relatives of the bride and groem
entered and were ushered into the

The wedding tableau, was pretty in
the extreme, redolent with the
sweet sentiment that loving hearts
and willing hands could diffuse over
such an affair. The altar was tair-

of greenery frescoed the vaultings,

either side of the altar were two
pyramids of exotics, one of shell
