 The wedding ceremony was most 1m-

 one of unusual beauty, the palm-laden
 chancel forming a tropical background for
 the beautiful gowns of the bride and her
 maids.

Among the presents was a chest Of superD silver from the congregation Of Temple Emanuel and a handsome leather chalr | from the children of the Sunday school. The gifts included quantities of cut glass l and silver, and other beautiful treasures, l which entirely filled the long diningrooms at the brides home and in addition to | these tangible evidences of the universal | esteem in which the rabbi and Miss ull- | man were held, are the social congratula- | tions and good wishes that came to them last night from hundreds or frlends | throughout the city.
 The bride is one of the most charming and gifted of women. She is great favor- ite in society, and in the charities Of the city she is none the less conspicuous. She is of the most patrician type of the Jewish woman both in beauty and manner and character and she possesses all the attr1- butes to make the ideal wife of minister. Dr. Newfield is distinguished for his ripe scholarship He is an exceptionally learned man and in this respect few rabbis or Christian ministers in the United States arc his equal perhaps. Certainly few have had adn advantages He born at Homonna, in Hungary, and at an early age matriculated at the gymnasium at Buda-Pesth, where he graduated with hon. ors He then took a two years course Tn the university at Buda-Pesth and also a course at the rabbinical school in that city. Leaving Buda-Pesth the young student went to Germany, where he took short courses in the Heidelberg University and in the University of Berlin.
 | In 1891. at the age of P, he came to this | country and entered the Hebrew omon | College at Cincinnati, over which the late Dr. Wise presided, and took a course a, | the same time in the Cincinnati University | He was a teacher in Cincinnati In 1S9i-9' and in September, 1885, accepted the cal | to Temple Emanuel this being his firs | and only charge as rabbi, he having beer reelected each successive year.
 Cultured persons of Birmingham wht have listened to the rabbi's discourses al Temple Emanuel on Friday evenings ant his public addresses outside of the Temple have remarked his liberal spirit, his choice | diction, and the poetic and philosophic cast | of his mind. But an intimate friend oi Dr. Newfield said yesterday whilst hi: l scholarship is conspicuous, after all the | finest qualities of the rabbi are his higl l character combined with great goodness O. | heart. He is at once just, wise and fear l less These traits make him leader H. | is also modest, gentle and unselfsh. an( | these traits make him loved. Leaving ou l the question of his extraordinary learning | Dr. Newfield is a gentleman who would | adorn the most cultured society of any | community and cause him to stand in ths | front rank of noble citizenship.
