was that which occurred at noon yes
terday when Miss Alice McCutchen and
Il. g. Schmiedell embarked together upon
that voyage which is to end only with life.

! The ceremony TOOK place in Grace
| Church. on the corner of California and
Stockton streets, Rev. DR.. Foute and Rev.
Mr.. Miel conducting the services. There
have been many notable gatherings in
Grace Church. but few if any ever more
brilliant than that which filled the vast
but beautifully decorated ediice yesterday.
The decorations in Grace Church, which
were arranged by DR.. Harry Tevis, were
concentrated in the chancel and upon the
altar, the whole front of which was almost
hidden behind wall of pink and white flow
efs, green vines and ferns that filled the
whole interior with a sweet perfume.
Flowers were seen everywhere, but the
chief loneliness of the beautiful scene was
to be found in the bright faces and becom-
ing costumes of the throngs which had
come to see their friend and girlhood's
companion take the most momentous step
of her life. From the doorway of the
church the sight was almost bewildering
in its beauty.
No cards of admission had been issued.
but the larger portion of the church had
been reserved for the relatives and imme-
diate friends of the bride and groom and
| their families, while the remainder of the
auditorium was given up to those less in
tlmately acquainted, and by whom the
entire space was filled in few moments
after the doors had been opened. So many
were there, indeed, who were anxious to
be present that the ushers had much diff
Guilty in keeping the aisles clear.
| 1t was but few minutes after the ap-
pointed hour when the organist began the
wedding march and the bridal procession
entered the church First came the ushers,
| W. R. Heath, Augustus Taylor, Harry L.
| Simpkins, William D. Page, Henry w.
Poet, George 7. Cowles, Louis Jones and

! sole ard wore white hats with large
plumes. They wore white gloves and
shoes and each carried bouquet of La
| France roses, and they wore their souve-
mir pins of pearls.
The bride entered the church leaning on
the arm of her father, who escorted her to
| the chancel, where the groom met her and
led her to the altar. The bride, who is a
lovely blonde with pleasing expression,
wore beautiful gown of white satin pro-
fusely trimmed with lace, with high
corsage, full court train and elbow sleeves.
| Her veil, which covered her gown, was of
| white tulle, and was caught in her hair
with a diamond sunburst. She carried
bouquet of brides roses. At the altar the
| bride and groom were met by Rev. Mr..
Foute and Rev. Mr. Miel, who read the
beautiful and impressive marriage service
| of the Episcopal church, pronounced the
twain man and wife, uttered the benedic-
ton and were the first to offer their con-
/ gratulations and best wishes. The bride
and groom led the procession out of the
church, followed by the bridesmaids and
others, the organ playing the Mendelssohn
wedding march.
