MR.. AND MRS. ID. d. CONWAY.
(WHOLEsALE.)

In last weeks issue of this paper we
briefly announced the approaching
marriage of one of our most prominent
and popular young men-Dennis D.
Conway, to Miss Nellie r. Luft, of
Madison. Since that announcement
another succession of days has rolled
around, another interval of time has
been added to the grand old cycle of
weeks and we can greet to-day in their
happy union of new relations, Mr.. and
Mrs. D. D. Conway.
From the Milwaukee Sentinel of this
morning we clip the following short
account of the wedding, sent by a
Madison correspondent:
GA pretty wedding was solemnized at
st. RaphaePs church, Madison, at s
O'Clock Wednesday morning, when the
Rev. J. NJ. Naughtin said the words
that made Miss Nellie Regina Luft and
d. D. Conway husband and wife. Miss
Katherine Luft, sister of the bride, was
maid of honor, and w. J. Conway, the
bridegroom's brother, was best man.
Miss Elizabeth Purcell was bridesmaid,
and D. B. Cantwell was groomsman.
The bride wore a gown Of white bro
caded chiffon over white taffeta,
trimmed with point lace and white
| ribbon, over which was hung white
silk illusion veil. She carried boquet
of yellow roses. The maid of honor
and bridesmaid wore white organdie.
| Following the ceremony at the church
a reception was held at the home of the
| brides parents on Clymer street. The
couple left on the l o'clock train this
afternoon for st. Paul and Minneapolis
for short tour, after which they will
take up their residence in Centraia.
The bride is the eldest daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. James Luft, and is one of the
| charming and popular young ladies of
the Capital city. The groom was grad
uated from the State University Law
school with the class of '95. He is a
member of the law firm of Williams &

Mr.. and Mrs. Conway will return
from their wedding journey the last of
this week or the first of next week and
will be at home corner of French and
Franklin streets, Centralia, in Il resi-
dence ready furnished by the groom
for their reception.
D. D. Conway is promising young
attorney here, Wood county boy SO
we'll known throughout this section that
an introduction in these columns is I'M
necessary. For four years prior to the
present incumbent, he held the office
of clerk of the circuit court for Wood
county, ably and efficiently serving the
people in that capacity. During the
latter part of his second term he ap-
pointed deputy clerk and attended
the Law school at Madison until he
graduated therefrom. He was then
associated with Atty Geo. L. Williams
in this city-the law firm of Williams &
Conway-where Dennis is now rapidly
and successfully working toward the
front among the devotees of Black
stone. Mr.. Conway is jolly, shrewd
business fellow and numbers bis friends
by the extent of his acquaintance.
The estimable young lady whom he
has chosen as a spouse never visited in
our cities. but she will be warmly well
coined in social and home circles, for
she is a lady of accomplishments, re-
fined manners and charming appear
ance. May naught but domestic peace,
conjugal happiness, and abundance of
the riches of life ever be their portion
is the earnest well-wish of the REPORTER
and host of friends.
