FINE HOME FOR PRESENT

POSSIBLY the prettieSt quiet wedding or
the year was that which took place last
night at 1880 North Market street, when
Rev. Mr.. Ritchey. of st. Johns Episcopal
church, in the fun robes of his sacred
Office, pronounced Mr.. A B. Anderson
wife. The ceremony took place in tie
parror of what is probably the prettiest
cottage in Wichita, the present of the
brides father, John W. Shuts. to his
daughter. The ceremony was the full
ceremony of the Episcopal church and
Mr.. Ritchey made it very impressive.
1t was given out that the bride and
groom would leave on the Santa Fee last
night to spend their honeymoon in Kan
sas City, but they did not, to the great
disappointment of Col. L. r. Delaney,
who had large party of railroad friends
at the depot to give the groom and bride
a shower of rice. Col. Delaney made
great preparations for the OCCASION going
so far as engaging band. The bride
carried out the little deception of going
to Kansas City so cleverly that even the
nearest friends thought they took a car
riage at the house and departed. Instead
of that they remained In the home
Mr.. Anderson, the groom, is "a 'years of
age and a young man Of fine character
and great promise. He is connected with
the traffic department of the Santa Fe
road In this city and has advanced rap
idly since coming here. He has a bright
frr haf0 ~ h,
the managing forces and, in fact, with
everybody In his department who know
him.
The bride is % years of age and the
only daughter of Dr. John W. Shuts,
president of the board of health. She was
educated in Mt. Carmel academy Of this
city. formerly All Hallows, and in all
that cultivation can add to naturally
bright mind she is we'll provided. In art
and music she is especially accomplished
But, after all, nature did more for her
than any academy could. 1t endowed
her with a remarkably sweet disposition,
made her one of the most popular and
charming girls in Wichita, as 1t will make
her one of the most ideal wives and
women.
One of the most touching things about
her life is the wonderful mutual affection
existing between herself and her father
Those who have known of it are the
warm admirers of both. 1t is an affection
SO beautiful that their friends call it
holy. To the doctor she is still the girl
of two years old to be kissed and petted
and played with. 1t is inspiring to I'M
derstand how they regard one another.
The present of DR.. Shuts to the bride
is house and furniture that must have
cost at least six thousand dollars. The
house itself is a model cottage of six
rooms, built without regard to expense
and finished in the most artistic manner.
The floors are all of polished hard wood,
inlaid with woods of different coiors, and
every room is finished with different
wood-different in texture, hardness,
grain and color The house is thoroughly
lighted with electricity and heated from
an up-to-date furnace. The furniture
Is superb and matches the finish of each
room. Nothing needed for housekeeping
is lacking and the result is a credit to
the doctors taste. as he picked it all out.
Even the pictures and statuary were
selected by him. The few guests who
were present last night were astonished
at the extraordinary completeness of the
home and its appointments.
They have started out in married life
under the most promising auspices and
Il is the hope of everybody who knows
them that their union will enjoy all the
blessings promised them in the words OF
the clergyman who made them husband
and wife.
