Beautiful and impressive was the
wedding of Mr.. Robert Latham George
and Miss Annie Haley, which was
sulemnized at st. Matthew'S cathedral
last night at 1880 o'clock in the pres.
enCe of a c|oncourse of friends which
taxed the capacity of the spacious edi
flee. The stately church proved an
admirable setting for the artistic dec,
orations, which were in harmony with
the holiday season. Masses of ;rag,
rant evergreen were effectively arrans-
ed throughout the assembly room. and
these furnished the background for
the color scheme in red and green,
which IA developed cleverly in holly
and wide satin ribbons of richest red.
The graceful nuptial arch which span
ned the chancel was also of
and the wedding bell glowed as the
heart of love.
Miss Laura Lee presided at the Or
gan and rendered most acceptably a
program of melodious selections as the
audience assembled. The gentlemen
who ofiiciated as ushers We're DR.. Ham
ilton and Messrs. Harry George, Cor,
lett Downey and Arthur Smith.
The ceremony was performed by
Dean Bode, and promptly at the ap
pointed hour the strains of the magnif-
icient wedding march from Lohengrin
announced the approach of the bride,
Mir. George and his best man, Mr.James
Fenwick, having previously taken
their position before the officiating
clergyman, Miss Haley was led to the
altar by her father, Mr.. Ora Haley. her
bridesmaids being Miss Martha Haley
and Miss Maude Hum o. Denver, and
the wedding procession presented a
spectacle both beautiful and brilliant.
At the chancel Mr.. Haley gave his
daughter to her chosen husband, and
the impressive ritual of the full Epis-
copal ring service was used by Dean
Bode in uniting these two for time and
all eternity. At the close of the cere-
mony.- the fortunate couple led the
wedding party down the aisle while
the triumphant notes of Memberships
wedding march sang through all the
cathedral arches.
The wedding reception was held at
the palatial Haley residence, and the
house was filed from s O'Clock until
IL with parties of friends, who called
"a different hours to extend cOngratu
,~lations and good wishes. The decora
tive effects in the spacious apartments
were. if possible. more beautiful than
lose at the church. The reception

was very attractive, and on the stair
way and in the upper rooms were plac-
ed great masses of spicy carnations,
whose fragrance perfumed the air.
The wedding party received in the
drawing room. and here the floral work
was simply superb, the red and green
OF holiday occasions furnishing the
color scheme. Plumy ferns and state
" palms and rubber plants were effec-
lively massed, while the nantes were
banked with glorious poinsettias. The
library was also in red and green, but
the dining room was cleverly wrought
in a charming contrast, white being
there combined with the green. The
snowy table was artistically strewn
with ferns, and in its center was placed
ard adorable basket of brides roses.
combined with asparagus plumosa.
The handle of this superb creation
bore a lovers knot of bridal tulle. In
all the rooms the electrollers and drap-

10 ng, graceful wreaths of the aspara
gus fern.
