MISS CRAMER-MR JOHNSTON.

There was very pretty wedding at Christ church, Thursday afternoon, which was largely attended by the many friends of the contracting parties. Miss Mary Booth Cramer, daughter ct B. A. Cramer, and August Johnston, were married by Rev c. E. Woodcock, at 4 o'clock.
 The church was very beautifully decor ated with evergreens. All around the interior of the building the holly, laurel and hemlock were arranged. In and around the altar was also arranged quantities of green and with this was woven sprays of mistletoe. Instead of the customary lengths of white ribbon stretched along the ailes. indicating the seats reserved for the families, gar lands of evergreen were used.
 By the hour for the ceremony the church was well filled and the bridal party entered just at the intended time. It passed down the aisle to the altar, the ushers leading, and Prof Goodale rendering a wedding march on the or gan. The bride and groom-elect fol- lowed the ushers. There were no maids of honor or bridesmaids. The minister waited at the chancel rail as the party passed down the aisle land performed the ceremony, using the beautiful service of the Episcopal church. The bride was given away by her father. Two rings were used in the ceremony in place of the single one that the groom usually gives to the bride, the bride giving one to the groom. After the ceremony the party was at once driven to MT Cramer's home, on South Cliff street.
 The bride wore very becoming gown of mode broadeloth, with velvet bodice in brown and gold, trimmed in applique embroidery. The ushers were: E. E.. Grove, South Norwalk; w. J. Reed, Frank M. Johnson and Charles A. Cock.
 At the house MT and Mrs Johnston received the congratulations of their friends. The rooms were trimmed in green and pink. Laurel was used in the decorations everywhere. being wove n over picture frames and placed on tables and over doors and windows. In the middle room an arch had been formed and from this was suspended a horseshoe of evergreen. Under this the bride and groom stood and received the good wish es of their friends. Pink shades were on all the gas burners and lamps and the light diffused throughout the rooms was soft and effective.
 About 5:30 o'clock luncheon was served and the bridal cake was cut. MI and Mrs Johnston took the :34 train fol short trip, after which they will re. turn to New York, where they will live at No. West 135th street. Many very handsome presents were received among which were number of pieces of cut glass and solid silverware. Among the guests were: Miss M. E Bronson, Baltimore; MT and Mrs D. w
