Husband and Wife.

strains OF the immortal "Lohengrin"
wedding march, and took its station
under an arch Of mingled ferns,
smilax and Gala lilies.
The bride made a beautiful picture
in her gown of crepe de Paris, trimmed
with silk embroidered lace. Her long
veil was tasted with circlet Of orange
blossoms. and she carried boquet of
BRIDES roses. Miss Grace Cauthorn,

them man and wife had been spoken,
the assembled friends crowded about
the young couple and offered their
hearty Fluctuations.
A delicious luncheon was served at
the close Of the ceremony, and at 2

relatives and friends in that state for
about a month before returning to

Portland yesterday that the Oregon
Electric Company will begin tomorrow
actual construction on the first Of 2S3
