Parents at MilIen.

Mr.. Charles L. Wilcox. of Savannah,
and Miss Mae Daniel were married at
noon yesterday at the residence of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. H. G.
Daniel, of Millen. The ceremony was
a quiet one, but beautiful in it's sweet
simplicity.
Only the relatives and close friends
of the parties were present. The at
tendants and other guests from Savan-
nah left on the CentraTs 9:45 train in
the morning. reaching Millen an hour
before the ceremony.
The parlors of the Daniel residence
were deliberately decorated, the color
scheme being green, pink and white.
SmilaX was twined in graceful festoons
about the walls and pink tulle and
white lilies of the valley completed an
effect at once simple and artistic.
The bridal party entered the parlors
to the strains of Mendelssohn's We'd
ding March, and as the ceremony was
in progress Hearts and Flowers" was
softly played. The groomsmen, Mr..
Robert G. Fleming and Mr.. Clarence
G.. Anderson, Jr., entered first and to-
gether. Then came the little flower
girl Miss Pauline Daniel, and follow
Wilcox, the groom's sister. The bride
entered with her maid of honor, Miss
Julia Daniel. The groom and his best
man, Mr.. Frank Viewer, Joined the par
ty in the center of the parlors, where
the ceremony was performed by Rev.
T. ]. Holmes.
The bride wore a costume of white
embroidered chiffon over taffeta silk,
trimmed with old lace. Her veil was
will 10 ha
gift of the groom. Miss Julia Daniel,
the maid of honor. wore pink chiffon
over pink taffeta, and the bridesmaid,
Miss Myra Wilcox, white crepe de
chine over white taffeta. The little
flower girl wore dainty gown of pink

An elaborate wedding breakfast was
served after the ceremony. The young
couple were the recipients of many
handsome and elaborate presents. In
the evening they came to Savannah
and left at midnight over the Southern

No. SOB Whitaker street.
Mr.. WILCOX is the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles H. Wilcox. He is CASH

and we'll known in Savannah. His
bride has been the belle of Millen,
where her beauty and accomplishments
and her many graces of character and
manner have won her hosts of friends.
The gay party of young people who
attended the ceremony at Millen did
not fail to amuse themselves at the
expense of the bride and groom. None
of the old customs that long observ-
ance has rendered venerable were for
gotten. The trunks that went into the
baggage car at Millen were elaborate
ly decorated with bows of white rib
bon AMI such old shoes as could be
found about the house. If luck fol-
lows those who carry away old shoes.
Mr. and Mrs Wilcox ought to be pro-
vided with enough good fortune to last
a long lifetime. Various tender mot
toes ornamented the broad ends of the
silken bows.

WANTS TO CLOSE STREET.
Council Asked TO Approve Shutting
Up Center Street.

Miss Anna Brown of Mystic, Conn,
through her counsel, Beckett & Beck
EFT, has petitioned City Council to
close up Center street. The petition
was read and referred to the Commit
tee on Opening Streets.
Miss Brown represents that she owns
five lots in Demere ward, and that Cen
ter street is useless as a street She
shows that Thirty-seventh and Thirty
eighth streets have been extended
through the property in question, and
that Center street only mars the beauty
OF the city's plan. She contends that
the street has absolutely no value. and
that 1t makes it impossible to arrange
suitable building lots on her land. thus
greatly reducing its value.
Miss Brown contends that the clos
ing of the street would greatly increase
the taxable value OF her property. and
that I'm this manner the city would be
benefited financially, and at the same
time have a more beautiful locality
Council is asked TO request the Legis-
lature, through Chatham county's rep
resentatives. to pass a bill providing
for the closing OF the street. and the
sale OF the land TO the petitioner
