Majestic, New York. at noon last
Tuesday, the Goth, Rev. w. M. Hughes,
of the Church of the Redeemer, Nor
ristown, oficiated. The ceremony
took place in the hotel parlor, which
was beautifully decorated with palms,
lilies, roses and smilax. Great pots
of lilies and American beauty roses
were stood about the room and there was
an orchestra of strings that added very
much testhe charm of the occasion. The
bridal procession was very effective. The
three bridesmaids, Miss Kelly, Miss
ThomasIand Miss Grace Gillespie, wore
pink silk gowns trimmed with Valen-
siennes lace, and picture hats in white
and pink. They carried large punches of
American beauties. The ushers were the
brothers of the bride. The bridal dress
was of white satin, en- train, the skirt
perfectly plain and finished with cord.
The waist was of superb point duchesse
lace, high in the throat and with long
sleeves, and the vail of duchesse lace was
fastened with large crescent of dia-
monds-the gift of the groom. She car
ried an ivory prayer book and no bouquet.
Mrs. Leonora Dixon Guerin, her mother.
gave her away Mrs Guerin's dress was
of black lace over white silk. One of the
effective arrangements was the kneeling
bench for the bride and groom, which
was of white satin, decorated with lilies
and satin ribbons. Mr.. and Mrs. Yerkes
received their congratulations in a beau
tiful bower of smilax and white flowers,
with background of palms, which was
most becoming to the regal bride, whose
beauty was emphasized by her surround
ings A fine wedding breakfast was serv-
ed after which the bride and groom start
ed on their wedding journey. On their re-
turn they will reside in New York. The
presents were innumerable; cases of
silver, with spoons. knives and forks,
and larger sets for fruit, silver bowls,
plates, bonbon dishes, books, cut glass,
clocks, in fact everything which bride
might most desire. One of the most de-
sirable among them was an original pic
ture by Thos. Mast, which he had done
especially for the bride. Among the
many present were: Mr.. and Mrs.
Witte; Mr.. and Mrs. Hayes of Madison,
DR.. and Mrs. Hughes, Mrs Robert Porter
and her sister, Mrs Crawford, and Mr..
and Mrs. Andrew Reasoner.

Il eavy weight militia COMPANY

Considerable interest centers in the
militia company which it is understood
is to be organized by our well known and
patriotic citizen Harry Davis. After
consultation with Messrs. John r. Burr
and Thomas Malley, SO the story goes, it
has been decided to open recruiting
station at Mr.. Davis establishment on
Morris street, where, if the muster roll
is not on hand now, it will be within a
day or SO. It is understood that one
requisite for this new company is a
weight of at least 200 pounds, although
the organizers will probably consider
later in the day few lighter weights
sjust to fill in the chinks,o as Mr.. Davis
puts it.
