1T is on the side alternately of the
pleated or gathered back of course. pleats
for wool goods, gathers for silk, cotton. etc,
and in my judgment the bolero jacket is
going to descend upon us like a swarm of
seven-year locusts. OF course this is the APP
pointed time for early spring tailor modes
and 1t sends a cold shiver" through my
pocketbook to see that light-toned clothes
trimmed with white are going to be in the
very forefront of smartness. The only
refuge for the economically inclined woman
is khaki brown cloth and you know that is
not always becoming.
% THE sweetest harbinger of spring I
saw this very afternoon and made for a
Washington woman to wear at the PaunCe-
fote wedding. 1t was a cloth having a high
surface finish and of the tone known as
Ia blut. IL DdlltIh was DllIttSSt WIFI
very narrow box pleats laid far apart and
running from the bust down well over the
hips in front. Heaviest cream tinted but
ton hole twist was used TO stitch fiat the
edges of the pleats and in the rear these
folds extended from shoulder blades we'll
upon the skirt. A yoke filled in the top of
tha waist, n yoke of blue overlaid with
the heaviest cream Russian lace, and back
from it rolled upon bust and shoulders one
round continuous kerchief rever, its border
stitched like the pleats. A little TO the left
side this delectable garment fastened with
n bow made of Il fringed cream liberty satin
scarf, assisted by a trio of white buttons
enameled in blue.
''Of course, when | was for a moment left
alone with that dress | did what any woman
under a similar temptation would have done,
l examined it infinitely and then on a leaf
of my address book ! took down a sketch of
It, and hurried away to the woman who does
for me and ordered it's replica in Florentinc
cloth of "A good sturdy khaki brown, since
mine must be a gown fer more than mere
house occasions. The cream bow knots in
the reproduction arc to be replaced by one of

aside from the interest which. centered in
the bride.
For Miss Lee Qui Noun, after all, was
the attraction.
When the bridal party reached the altar
Rev. DR.. Eckels stood ready to receive them.
In a few preliminary remarks he addressed
the audience in explanation of the unique
event, He told once more the story of Wong
johns wooing, how correspondence and
photographs had been exchanged, how Wong
Johns Sunday school teacher and the Golden
Gate mission school had been concerned.
The rites of the Presbyterian church were
performed, and when the couple walked up
the church aisle a more outspoken apprecia-
tion than before could scarcely be sup
pressed. 2
In the lecture room of the church a recep-
tion was held Immediately following the
ceremonies. Here Wong John and his hand
sctne, ~blushing wife received congratula-
tions, Beautiful decorations abounded. the
Chinese colors mingling with those of the
United States. The wedding repast was un
eXcelled. The reception continued for
several hours. When it was all over Mr.. and
Mrs. Wong John drove to their South street
home, where the first Christianized Chinese
couple in the city will reside.
Omaha daily bee., 1900-02-11

nounced the benediction, when Wong John
ard Miss Lee Qui Noun were one, not a
single guest Of the thousand who we're pres
ent in the Arch Street Presbyterian church
dissented from the opinion that a more
graceful bride never stepped before the altar.
The marriage of Wong John and his San
Francisco bride was set for s O'Clock. But
when the squad OF police arrived. detailed
to keep traffic open on the street, the side
walks were already filled with curious spec
tators. Captain of Detectives Miller was
conspicuous on the upper steps Of the
church, and solidly the guests filed into the
edihce. Whenever a purple piece of paste
board was displayed the holder gained en-
trance. without this open sesame there
was no admittance.
But It was within the structure, a church
which has seen scores OF fashionable we'd
dingS in its time, that real interest centered,
after all. A more brilliant assemblage
seldom graced a wedding ceremony. Re
srlcndent in it's electric illumination the
famous old church seemed to feel that the
event about to transpire was not an ordi-
nary one.
The makeup of the audience, unques-
t~ionably, was unique as few have been.
Orientalism and customs of the Occident
commingled in a manner to speak el~oquently
for themselves. The extensive fam
lily of the Wongs, cousins and
uncles and further removed, were
assigned special pews, where a good
view of the ceremonies might be obtained.
However, even the Chinese circle was at
variance as to dress and appearance. Young
men, faultlessly attired in evening dress,
but with the Mongolian cast of countenance,
rubbed plbDNS with those nf thpir nwn rapa
who as yet held to the odd, but picturesque,
garments of the land of Ii Hung Chang.
Some had the proverbial queue very much
III evidence. Others had employed this fea-
ture otherwise and curled it gracefully
around the head.
Then the women of the race. True, but
a few of the Chinese ladies were in attend
ance, but what they lacked in number was
made up, in picturesqueness.
The organ now pealed forth its melody.
The augmented choir of the church, under
the direction of Mr.. MacGibboney, filled the
structure with song. A hush settled over
tho assemblage. 1t was realized that tho
mcmentous hour had arrived.
II was now that the unexpected happened.
Gracefully entering the southern doorway.
a dainty little woman in modern dress and
leaning on the arm of another walked up
the aisle. The magnificent bunch of white
roses nesting against her corsage made a
striking contrast to the brown colored tailor
made gown. Her hat was a picture of the
milliner's art. 1t vas Miss Lee Qui Noun,
not arrayed in silks and satins of the Orient,
but quietly, tastefully dressed in the fashion
o. the day.
And the groom? Immediately following
Miss Qui and her companion came Wong
Jonn, not perturbed by the scrutinizing
glances, and conscious to the full that he
had a serious part to perform. More than
ordinarily good-looking, Wong John might
well consider himself the conspicuous object,

"Will you be able to convince the neigh
