RLUTuENpHAb KAUFMAN Y The Bluthen thal-K Kaufman wedding, one of the handsomest of the season, was celebrated this afternoon Ut four o'clock at the Jewish Temple, corner Third avenue and Laurel street.
 The Temple was made beautiful for the occasion by an artistic ar- engagement of growing plants, tall palms aud dainty ferns, whicL were placed around the altar and made an effective background for the bridal party, which formed a tableau that drew forth many expressions of admiration, as did also the beautiful bride, Miss B!uthenthal, as she passed slowly into the house of worship leaning on her fathers arm.
 Miss Barbara Connolly presided at the organ and was efficiently ac- companied on the violin by Miss Bertie Weller.
 Messrs. sam Solmson and Moe Levine, the first two ushers, led the way, followed by the other ushers, Messrs. Geo. Kaufman, Henry Ber- nath, Henry Weller, of Galena, Kan. and Simon Strauss, entering in pairs. Thep came Mrs. Bluthen- thal, mother Of the bride. She was accompanied by MT. Sol Kaufman Next in order came the groom ac- companied by Mrs. Sol Kaufman The march of the bridal party was con pleted by the bride aud her fathe,, who entered last.
 The bride wore a castor embroid: cred broad cloth robe, with tomato pink trimmings. She carried a white satin bible.
 In few well-chosen words Rev. J. s. Kornfeld made the happy COuptC OECs
 After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Kaufman left on the afternoon Iron Noun tain train for St. Louis, where they will visit MT. Kaufman's rela- tiyes for few weeks.
 The bride, Miss Rosa Bluthenthal, is the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dave Bluthen thal. She was born and reared in this city. For a number of years she has been a leader in Jewish society and by her Amiable disposition, he has gained a host of admiring friends.
 Mr. Will Kaufman has been ia the employ of MT. Isaac Dre7fus for the past several years. He is too well known to need a4y word of ours, and it is enough to say that there are few young men more liked and respected than he is today in our city.
 To the newly welded pair the Graphic extends its heartiest con- gratulations and best wishes, and may health, happiness and prosper ity be tbeir lot through life.
