 The marriage of Miss Helen Smith, eldest daughter of MT. and Mrs Oscar E. Smith to Mir Lewis B. Woodruff of New York, son of MT. and Mrs. Charles II. Woodruff, took place yesterday at high noon at the residence of the brides par ents 2244 Sycamore street. The cere- mony was performed by the Rev. Dr. A. c. Davidson. pastor of the southside Bap- list church and was witnessed by only the immediate family, all the plans for the wedding having been abandoned on account of the continued illness of the bride.
 Despite her long illness Miss Smith looked very lovely in a setting of white roses, and the ring ceremony WAS most impressive. There were no attendants and the wedding trip has been abandoned as the bride is not sufficiently strong to undertake a journey. The original plans were to go abroad and to pass a part of the summer at Carlsbad, where it was thought Mrs Woodruff would convaiesce more rapidly.
 The bride is one of the most beautiful young women in southern society and by her brightness and unusual beauty has been a recognized belle both in the south and in New York.
 Mir Woodruff is a we'll known New Yorker and Is a representative of an old and influential family.
 The wedding gifts were very handsome and included some exquisite silver and cut glass, and several heirlooms. Many congratulatory telegrams were received from friends in the north and south.
