A unique wedding celebration has

Of HAT Carr Lane, and DIR. Otto Kohl
base, United States navy, stationed at
Mares Island navy yards, San Fran
cisco, who will be married at $3.50
o'clock this morning.
Invitations sent out were for IAN
army and navy wedding and every
thing possible had been done by the
brides parents to fulfil this promise.
The bride-to-be is the widow of the late
LIEUT.. Edward Taylor, who was killed
by q train at Manila, p. l., where he
was stationed during the Spanish Amer
lean war. She is g daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Balmer, and is well
connected in this, her native city.
DR.. Kohlhase met Mrs. Taylor at the
home of her parents about three years
ago. Although stationed half way
across the continent from the home OF
her fnancee, DR.. Kohlhase found an
opportunity to visit her several times
during the courtship. ~
The residence of Mrs. Taylor's par
ents has been most elaborately and
appropriately decorated for the we'd
ding. The most novel feature of the
decorations is the arrangement of the
respective emblems Of the two branches
of the military-the army and navysr
The same idea will be carried ont in
the wedding breakfast, which will be
served Immediately after the couple are
pronounced one. Rev. William w.
Newell, pastor of Compton Hill Con-
gregational church, will officiate atlthe
ceremony. There will be no attendants
either side, as only the near relatives
and friends Of the principals will be
present. Mrs. T. P. Estes, a sister of
the bride-to-be, and her husband, who
reside at Pierre, s. d., arrived in TIE
city yesterday to attend the wedding.
They will probably accompany the
bride and groom on their honeymoon.
The couple will leave st. Louis for
Washington, ID. c., on a noon train,
and will remain during the winter in
Washington, where they have taken
apartments in the Ebbitt house, the
favorite resort for officers ashore.
The above is taken from the st. Louis
Globe-D Democrat OF Sept. 10 and refers
to a young gentleman raised in this
county, o of Conard Kohlhase, and
who is well and savorably known here.
