The father of the bride, a native of Sherman, Conn, for year or two at Yale, academical department, leaving college on account of impaired health and has for about twenty-five years been a prominent and influential citizen of Kansas City, The Times says: "One of the most beautiful, as well as one of the most important we'd dings yet celebrated in Kansas City, Kan, was that of Miss Lulu Edna Hoag, eldest daughter of Judge and
 Mrs. David D. Hoag,and George Moore, son of MT. and Mrs. B. F. Moore of Fond du Lac, Wis, which occurred last Tuesday evening in the Presbyterian
 church, which was thronged by the friends of the young people from the two Kansas Citys, and large number of out of town guests. The wedding was distinguished as a Spring flower" occasion and was replete with delight | full features. A noticeable feature at | the church was the attendance of the J. | S. K K. club, of which the bride is a
 member, in a body, and attired in even- l ing dress.
 | The ushers were Captain Fred B. Buchan, Maurice Alden, Gouvenier Hall and Thornton Green, who led the way | to the palm embowered altar where the first strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding
 March" had been sounded by Prof. Fisk
 at the organ. The four bridesmaids,
 Miss Gertrude Nofsinger, Miss Myrtle
 Titus, Miss Marie Kirk, and Miss Car
 rie Titus, all simply attired in airy
 white organdie gowns and carrying
 spring flowers" entered singly. Then |
 Hoag, in an exquisite gown of pink
 liberty silk, carrying pink roses, and
 she being of the decided brunette type,
 was in marked contrast to the blonde
 beauty of the bride, who was the last | to enter on the arm of her father, they | being met at the altar by the groom
 and his best man, George E. Kent.

 most impressively performed the beau- tiful Episcopal ceremony.
 Upon leaving the church more than
 a hundred guests were driven to the
 Hoag home in Edgerton place, where
 congratulations were received, the wed- ding party receiving in the first draw | ing room. A scheme of "springfower''
 decoration was most effectively carried
 out in all the rooms. lilacs and apple
 blossoms being the chosen flowers, and
 in the library a slight reminder of the
 war which hangs over our country was 1 felt as the trapped banners and flags
 greeted the eye.
 | Zimmerschields orchestra dispensed | the most beautiful music throughout
 the evening, the notes of Lohengrin' s | Bridal Chorus being recognized at l intervals.
 The bride, always attractive had
 new charm and grace in her elegant,
 but simple gown of white duchess satin
 made en train with elaborate accessions
 of real lace, and wearing a veil which l fell to the feet.
