etc, the general responded in subdued,
almost inaudible tones. When the
same question was put to the bride,
she answered in a clear musical voice
In response to the question: "Who

ward. Taking the brides right hand
he placed it in the generals left. The
minister smiled pleasantly, took Mrs.
Dimmicll's hand back from the gen

place it in his (the ministers) hand.
Mr. Parker complied, and then the
groom made the usual promise that 81

Next came Lieut.. Parker. As he
reached the front pew to the left he
gave his arm to Mrs Parker, who stood

pew on the right. In this order the
wedding procession marched down the

on for Indianapolis.
Gen. Iarrison's face bore a calm,
satisfied expression, but a change had
taken place in his appearance. lie had
evidently put himself in his BARRIERS
hands during the day, and his looks
We're somewhat altered. His beard
had been closely trimmed on both sides
and considerable cut away from the
chin. 1t made quite difference in the
generals makeup, giving him a
younger appearance. The bridal party
was driven to the residence of Mrs
Piuchot, where light refreshments
were served Here the bride and
groom donned their travelling attire.
Soon after o'clock the party re-
entered their carriages and were taken
to the Pennsylvania railroad station in
Jersey City. They boarded the private
car Of vice president Frank Thomson,
which was coupled to the regular 7:3O
p. m. train west, and the bride and
groom left at once for indianapolis.
