Bennett Sullivan.

On the evening Of the twenty.eightb

James A. Horton, at the beautiful
aome, coax Ridge. of Mr.. and Mrs.
William A. Coursen, uniting in the
Aoly bonds of matrimony, their daugh-
Ter. Lillian Clark Bennett, to Mr.. John
Graham Sullivan.
As the strains of the wedding march,
rendered by Wurm's orchestra, foated
out on the evening air, the folding
DOORS slowly opened and disclosed the
bridal party, gracefully grouped before
large curtain of magnolia leaves in
the library.
The attendants were:
Miss Bertha Bennett, maid of honor.
and sister of the bride; Miss Vivian
Strong, bridesmaid; Mr.. William r.
sullivan, best man, and brother of the
groom, and Mr.. Fletcher Reynolds.
After the solemn words of the service
had been repeated, the young couple
knelt to receive the blessing, and arose
with radiant faces to welcome the low
ing congratulations OF the relatives
and few friends who witnessed the
ceremony.
A most delicious buffet supper was
then served, consisting of several
courses. after this, while waiting the
arrival of the other guests to the large
reception, the bridal party were placed
under an exquisite arch formed of
magnolia branches and creamy buds,
with the marriage bell, consisting of
"cochet" roses, pink and white, sweet
peas and lilies, suspended from the
center, and flash-light taken Of them.
The house was beautifully decorated,
pink and white being the color scheme.
The brides table in the dining-room
was particularly effective. 1t was dec

somely embossed brides cake, sur
rounded by pink and white cochet
roses, delicate streamers of pink and
white tulle, suspended from the chan
de1ier and carried to the corners, plates
Of cake, daintily sliced, being placed
at intervals as a border around the
table, interspersed with salted almonds
and bon-bons.
Punch was served both in the din
ing-room and out on the lawn. The
spacious grounds were beautifully IL
Illuminated with lanterns, numerous
Iseats placed among the trees, made it
especially attractive to the younger
guests.
Mr.. Sullivan holds most response
bic position as travelling auditor with
the Atlantic Compress Co., and is one
of the most progressive young business
men in the State. An universal favor
lite, of singularly attractive personality,
ne numbers his friends by the score.

Lillian Bennett, has lived the greater
norton of her life in Marietta. Beau

Authorities Watch Immigrants.

New York, Oct. 13.-The health
authorities of every city and town
in the United States where immi-
grants coming from infected dis
tricts of Russia and Italy take up
their residence, will be asked by the
federal immigration authorities to as
sist in preventing cholera from gain:
ing a foothold in this country. This
decision was reached at a conference
to-day between the Ellis Island au'
thorities and a representative of Dr.
Walter Wyman, surgeon general OF
the marine hospital service.
Every immigrant and steerage pas
senger coming from the countries
where cholera is epidemic who is al
lowed to enter will be followed to his
point of destination by report from
Ellis Island to the local board OF
health. The boards will be expected
to keep a watch on all such arrivals
and isolate them at the first indlca'
tion of suspicious disease.
The plan is regarded as an extreme
of precautionary measures and it will
necessitate the sending out of ar
average Of 10000 notices every week
to health officers throughout the
country.

BIG THINGS OF THE WORLD.
Those That are Highest, Deepest,
Longest or Costliest.

The tallest monument is the Wash
ington obelisk, 555 feet high; but the
largest monolith is in Karnak, Egypt,
being 100 feet high. The highest
chimney, measuring Ala feet, is in
Glasgow.
The largest aqueduct in use is the
| Croton, of New York, which is -thir-
ty-eight miles long, but the longest
ever built is in Perue, 260 miles.
The deepest coal mine is near Lam
bert, Belgium, $500 feet deep; the
biggest dock is at Cardiff, Wales, and
the strongest electric light is at the
Sydney lighthouse, Australia; while
the largest lighthouse is at Cape Hen
ry Virginia, being 165 feet high.
The greatest bank, says Harper's
Weekly, is the Bank of England, in
London; the oldest college is Univer-
sity college, Oxford, founded in 1850;
the largest library, the National in
Paris, containing nearly 100000

The largest theatre is the Paris
Opera house, covering three acres;

ing the oldest city.
The most costly book in the world
| is Hebrew Bible, owred by the Ger
man government, which few years
ago, refused the Pcpe's offer OF
s125,OOO Tor it. The most costly
| medicine few years ago was
metallic gallium, sold for $780,
900 a pound; but radium is now
the priceless gem of the mineral
world, selling for more than that
price per ounce.
Though orchids frequently bring
prices that make the poor man stag
ger, the highest price for a single
flower was given for tulip in Am
sterdam by an enthusiast, who paid
s25O,000 for it. The Rothschilds
