Corinne Futile few years ago, was married a few days since at Montgom- cry to Mir. Frank c. Fitten of Atlanta. The Montgomery Advertiser, in speaking of the wedding, says:
 Brides as Christmas presents a bit in advance are being bestowed in clusters upon fortunate young fellows about here, but the Montgomery men are allowing outsiders to come in and carry away too large a share of these precious souvenirs of love, whose possession makes life happy.
 Yesterday afternoon Montgomery lost another young woman to gentleman from another city. Miss Annie Futile, daughter of MT. and Mrs. A. G. Futile. was married to Mr. Frank c. Fitten or Atlanta, the ceremony occurring at the home of the brides parents on South Hull street.
 Tt was sweet, pretty home wedding. The house is model in arrangements, permitting most effective floral decora- tions, and roses, palms and exotics from the florists were used in such profuslon and in such good taste as to make the place fairy-like. An orchestra added to the attractiveness of the surroundings.
 "Rev. Dr. Eager performed the mar riage service in a very impressive man ner. The drawing rooms were filled with relatives and intimate friends.
 Miss Futile was dressed in travelling suit that became her handsomely, and after the ceremony she was in happy humor, emphasizing to her friends with more than usual charm the brightness and generousness of her disposition. The man to whom she has entrusted her fu- ture is of a prominent family and holds a good position with one of the big steamship lines which has an office over in Atlanta, for which city Mir and Mrs. Fitten left at 5:30 o'clock. They will con- tinue on to New York and other eastern points and return to Atlanta later"
 
 Mrs. M. Sabel of Montgomery, who has been the guest of MT. and Mrs. c. Laza- rus, returned home on Wednesday.
 MT. and Mrs. James Weatherly de- lghtfully entertained the Evening Eu- chre club on Friday evening at their handsome home on Twentieth street South Highlands. After many spirited games of euchre the prize-a beautiful silver pocket knife-was won by Mir Harry Wheelock. Mrs. Weatherly serv- ed delicious refreshments after the games were completed, when the club adjourned to meet next Thursday even ing with Hon. and Mrs. A. G. Smith.
 The Clio Literary circle of the high school held an unusually interesting ses- sion on Tuesday afternoon, when sub ject of much immediate concern was dis cussed by four gifted members of the society. The question read, Resolved That there is no impropriety in wearing boomers when riding a bicycle" The matter was eloquently argued pro and con by Misses Mary Sholl, Florence Lo- peg, Elvira Lewis and Annie Belle Will liamson, Misses Sholl and Lopez for the affirma tive and Misses Lewis and Will liamson for the negative. The negatives won the decision of the judges. The speeches were so bright and good that as soon as I have space l shall publish some of them.
 The services at St. Mary's-on-the- Highlands on Christmas Day will be es- pecially beautiful. The decorations, un- der the direction of Mrs. Sterling La nier, will be elaborate and handsome. The music will be splendid, with Professor Guckenberger at the organ, full vested choir and quartette composed of the following fine voices: Miss Annie Bride well, soprano: Mrs. Guckenberger, con- tralto; MT. Gillies. tenor, and MT. w. D. Smith, basso.
