Ephrussi's magnificent ballroom was
thrown open. There everyone repaired,
every body and the dogs. a moment
later and there softly tioated through
the air the strains of the ever familiar
wedding march from "Lohengrin."
,Mincing up the aisle, along which it
had been arranged that the wedding
procession was to pass. walked three
small poodles, each in evening dress,
and semi-harnessed together with
white ribbon. Following these came
the bride, leaning upon the arm or
rather hand of her mistress, while be-
hind them, walking on his hind feet
and without support. accompanied by
Baron Rothschild, came NJ. Major.
Then came the bridesmaids and
groomsmen, the former wearing white
silk dresses and long wells, the latter
in full dress and adorned with en-
.broidered white satin coats. All these
advanced upon their hind legs, but be.
hind them came host of canine guests,
who were permitted to walk as nature
had originally intended they should.
Away down at the further end of the
ballroom the wedding procession was
met by the stanch and sober bulldog
of Comte de Bertcaux. Upon his head
this honored canine wore tall silk
hat, and about his waist was tied the
itricolor sash, his badge of office, for
he was representing NJ. lie Marie. After
greeting the procession, the bulldog
Marie advanced on his hind legs and
seated himself upon an embroidered
cu@hion. The Marie looked solemnly
at the young couple whose destinies
he was about to unite, and then barked
distinctly three times. The bridegroom
gave short bark. The bride barked
low and impressiveiy. Then the Marie
barked several times i'll quick succes-
sion, and there was n series of respon-
sive barks, in which some of the rude
and unthinking in the audience joined
without request. A gold ring, with
diamond setting, was then slipped over
the paw of the fair Diane, the Marie
parked gleefully, and the procession
moved to the adjoining room.
Following the signing of the register
came the reception and supper Every
dog was given a seat at the table and
