Last evening. the wedding night OF
Miss Ethel Bryant and MIR. Il. J. MY

ceeding golden October day. Out OF
one each on his golden throne fol.
lowed by the moon, who over all "her
silver mantle threw" Then all was
light, u peerless quiyering radiance
which shimmered on road and river
and played In the treetops and over
the hills. So fair a night for bride
10 choose. The Animas valley was
never loveler.
Lights shone out from the windows
OF the Chapman ranch, now the home
Of MIR and Mrs. w II. bryant, lhe

assembled immediate relatives and
friends. to rejoice with these two in
the contamination of the most import,

there. throughout the rooms the sunny
October days We're symbollzed in the
gold and white of chrysanthemums

Mary Bryant. began to play the Bridal
Chorus from Lohengrin, and to the
spirited strains. the contracting par
Ties. Ethel Frank Bryant. and Elrnci
James Myers, took their places for the
all-important ceremony. As Rev. Ben.
nett commenced the solemn words Of
the marriage service. Miss Marie Sen

people will not forget each other aud
their love is an evergreen, when Il Is

were violet blossoms. Miss Bryant
served. assisted by Misses Edith -
Trask. The bride cut her cake for
good luck but the groom refused to la
Dor in any such way. so that duty was
delegated TO some one else.
After refreshments. there was music
and general good time. The groom's
