MVY WALL" A
SMALL PARADISE

Friends of Adolphus Busch know
that he plans to make his gardens at
Pasadena among the finest private
gardens in the world. The st. Louisan
never does things by halves, as may
be noted when it is understood that
he has spent $4,000 so far this season
for outdoor improvements and expects
to spend 100000 before the end of the
year.
There are fifty acres, acquired main
ly after Mr.. Busch purchased the
Craven home and rebuilt it, There
are sunken gardens, in which all the
arts of the landscape gardener have
been applied. Fountains. flower beds
walks. lakes. trees of strange species
and hundreds of special designs on
landscaping will be introduced as soon
as the handiwork of man and the art
of nature can bring about results.
The view from the Busch mansion,
Ivy Wall, is exceedingly beautiful.
Hills and valleys, greensward and
gardens and the homes of the rich all
make a wondrous panorama at Pasa-
dena. A turn in the highway makes all
this accessible to pedestrians and We
hicle occupants, and the public is adj
mitted by card, too, at intervals.

in the Magnus family and the Busch
family the wedding was not attended
by all the sisters and brothers. One
sister of the bride, Mrs. Won Gontard,
is in Europe. When the bridal pair
reaches st. Louis there will be a gem
eral reunion of the family. Her older
brother, Augustus, with his family is
there, as is her sister, Mrs. Edward
Faust. Her older brother and brother
in-law have the active management OF
the Anheuser- brewing interests,
and it is probable Lieut. Scharrer will
be added to make it triumvirate or
advisory board.
However, the Magnuses of Chicago.
Busches of Washington, Mo-, and others
OF the family awaited the bridal party
in the front row. The guests in re-
spectful silence noted the decorations
quietly and approvingly and listened to
Organist Wilde. who drew from the
organ it's sweetest strains.
There was no straining of eyes, no
craning of necks and no excitement
when, with slow step, the bride entered
with her father.
There was a smile Of content on her
interesting face, and the answering
smile beamed on the face of the stall
wart soldier who awaited her as he
stood beside her mother at the railing.

COL. RAYMOND Is
HELD UP BY POLICE

Colonel Walter Raymond, proprietor
of the Raymond hotel at Pasadena. a
hostelry of worldwide fame, was en-
barrassed for a time by an act of for
getfulness. He had forgotten his card
of invitation.
In their handsome equipage Colonel
and Mrs. Raymond drove into the
grounds and two bebadged policemen
stopped the coachman to take note of
the tickets. Colonel Raymond searched
his pockets and. growing red. began
to realize that he had forgotten the
coveted pasteboard.
"Orders are ORDERS" said the police
firmly. and though they regretted it
there was but one thing to do-to turn

NATIVE CITY SENDS
GREETINGS TO BRIDE

One of the latest guests to arrive was
Horatio n. Davis of st. Louis, mem
ber of the city council, school board
and several financial institutions there.
Mr.. Davis is on several boards of di-
rectors with Adolphus Busch, and was
invited to the wedding. With him
were Mrs. Davis, Miss Ada Davis and
Miss Rosa Junkin of Philadelphia,
their guest.
"Mr. Busch's civic patriotism and
public-spiritedness has made for him a
large following in st. Louis" said Mr.
Davis, "and the whole city extends it's
good wishes to her daughter who is be-
ing married today. 1t was pretty
romance and congratulations from all
over the world are being received by
the Busches by mail, wire and cable.
Pasadena Is a beautiful spot, and
this church is like a bit of fairyland
transposed."
The Davises will go to Coronado
Beach today to spend a short time.

Never were lilies more plentifully

from Easter lilies sell at 81 apiece. In
the Garvanza church they We're ranged

them. They dropped from altar rail
and arches, swung from the lectern

waved from the stained glass windows
Their snowy petals cleaned in the
mi-darkness with peaceful whiteness
along the pews. In silent array they
prepared the onlooker for the entrance
of the white-robed maiden whom
Cupid led to fair Pasadena.
Where lilies failed, white carnations,

in generous fashion. Thousands of the

was one bower of blossoms. The walls

work of smilax, into the meshes ot
which thousands of lilies were inter
woven.

Only about sixty guests were re-

Under a Canopy
The dining room, in which the bridal
party was served with refreshments,
was canopied with white satin ribbons
and white lilies and tulle were used
in the table decoration.
In Mr.. Busch's den, where more
tables were arranged, the same color
scheme prevailed and the conservatory
was q charming spot with it's quanti-
ties of tropical plants and ferns and
delicately shaded lights.
During the reception hours, which
were from to 8 o'clock, an elaborate
wedding supper was served in the
truly hospitable style of the German
host and hostess.
Mrs. Busch wore IL handsome Paris
gown of white lace trimmed with en-
broidered crepe de chine, deep fringe
and heavy embroidery.
The brides sister, Mrs Magnus. wore
simple black imported gown and
the dresses of all the women were very
handsome.

Glves Daughter Away
Mr.. Busch gave his daughter away,
and his voice trembled as he uttered
the words II do" that gave away his
last child. Only this once did he show
any signs of what the parting is to
him, for Miss Wilhelmina has been
his constant companion.
The company was startled when
Lieutenant Scharrer said IT do" for
the words rang through the little
church and the volume Of tone from
the stalwart German was something
of a surprise, Miss Wilhelmina
showed the true American spirit In
her answers, and when the last word
was said and the choir began the
beautiful strains of the bridal chorus
from "Lohengrin' she marched down
the aisle bowling to right and left of
her with smile that was genuine.
"Good-by, Mrs. scharrer
"Geed bye, Mrs, Scharrer," said the
brides father as he handed her into
the carriage, and the next minute the
lieutenant and his bride were dashing
away to the Busch residence in Pasa-
dena to receive their guests.
The home on Orange Grove avenue

More than five hundred people vis-

view of the decorations or perhaps see
ing the members of the family.
Many of them were disappointed,
but some persevered and pretended to
be looking at the Busch gardens while
they kept close watch On the win
dows of the home.
Finally the front door of the resi-
dence opened and the lieutenant came
forth and seated himself in one of the
great porch chairs.
He had just assumed a comfortable
position and was gazing out over the
Pasadena hills when young woman
with big kodak caught sight of him
and, with a little cry of delight. she
started across the lawn, pointing the
instrument as she ran.
But Scharrer saw her coming and

the couple will stop at the st. Francis
hotel. From there they will go to Salt
Lake, Cheyenne and Denver and then
go to st. Louis, where they will visit
in Busch place for several weeks.
Arriving in New York, they will take
steamer for the Mediterranean, visiting
several ports before landing at Genoa,
Italy. At Genoa Lieut.. Scharrer's big
gest and fastest automobile will be in

land to Germany and proceed to Stutt-
gart. This trip will occupy at least
two months and possibly more.

At the Alexandria
Lieut.. Scharrer and his bride arrived
at the Hotel Alexandria about o'clock
last evening and occupied apartments
5 to on the third floor, which embrace
one-half of the Spring street front of
the new hostelry.
AS the newly married couple entered
the hotel there was brief moment of
excitement among those in the lobbies.
All eyes were upon the handsome Prus-
sian soldier and the heiress. The latter
was dressed in her travelling gown of
gray.
Shortly after their arrival they or
dered a dainty wedding supper and left
word that they would not receive re-
porters or visitors. The management
of the hotel assured them that they
would be permitted to rest in all
security from the outside world.
The supper which was served in per-
son by Joseph Reichl, assistant general
manager of the Alexandria, was the
daintiest and most carefully prepared.
The Scharrer apartments are the
most elaborate in the hotel and were
designed for the use of the most eX-
elusive parties. They have been re-
served for Lieut. and Mrs. Scharrer for
a week.
