 tle following account of the Morris
 Clark nuptials:
 In woodland bower into which the
 rod of Midas had transformed the in
 terior of St. Thomas church there
 took place this afternoon the wedding
 of Miss Katherine Staufier Clark, a
 daughter of former United States
 Senator Clark, and Dr. Lewis Ruther-
 ford Morris.
 In the splendor of it's appointments,
 the lavish floral display and the mu-
 niticence of the gifts this wedding
 was one of the most notable which
 New York has ever seen. More than coco invitations had been issued. Per sonal and political friends of the Mon tana copper king had crossed the con
 tinent by scores in order to be present at the nuptlals of his daughter
 When the long line of private carria- ges had gone, after the wedding cere- mony, at 3:30 o'clock, there passed be- fore the church scores of cabs which had been hastily pressed into service by the guests who had been in railroad trains for days.
 Among the costly gifts, displayed in room of the apartment from which the bride had gone to her wedding, were presents from scores of Montana children, dollies, table linen and em- broideries, toiled over by youngsters thousands of miles away. More than half Of the wedding invitations went to Montana and Fifth avenue had Us Montana day. So great was the legion from the West that those who were not expected almost filled the church.
 Around the brOwnstOae edlhce at Fifth avenue and Fifty-third street there pressed and crowded throng such as forms the following of all great weddings, curious, Opened-eyed and filled with desire to not miss a single detail. The police with ditli- culty kept the street clear and main tlined passageway on the sidewalks. Women fashionably gowned. and some who were lar from being so, elbowed each other in their endeavor to get a glimpse of the waiting party and guests. Detachments of the host of sightSeers arrived two hours before the hour set for the ceremony. Both sides of the avenue were lined with the eagerly curious. Along the side of the church women passed up and down seeking an opp0rtuninty for ingress thorough lightly guarded doors.
 Among the guests were those of the world of society, members of the polit- ical world ard those who are known to che world of commerce. Members of old New York families, former govern orS, millionaires mine owners, mer- chant princes and politicians followed each other into the vestibule.
 St. Thomas church has been the scene of notable weddings, and cer- tainly the interior of the editice was never more elaborately decorated. From the eight stone pillars hung masses of pink roses, lilies, hydran- geas and apple blossoms. On either side of the chancel the seats of the choir were concealed by bowers of floral arches.
 Upon the delicately chiselled out lines of the white altar fell flood of light. About was the dark green of Ironded palm. At the top of the chan eel steps stood two pillars, laurel crowned and covered with garlands, at the entrance to the land of flowers.
 At the ends of the pews were clus- terS of pink and white flowers, bound with ribbons. Over it all was the mellow radiance from electric bulbs. The two central aisles looked like a rare garden, marked by boundaries of white ribbons.
 At $50 o'clock march by Jensen was played. Then the never to be for gotten strains of ''Lohengrin sounded. ! There was a turning of heads. The | wedding party had entered the central l aisle. First came the ushers, in black ! and gray, walking two and two They were .Dr. Everett NJ. M.Culyer, Dr, Chas T. Parker, NewbOld Morris, Wirt Howe. William A. Clark. Jr., and G. Frank | lyn Lawrence.
