Washington, May THE wedding at
the White House late this afternoon,
when Miss Eleanor Randolph Wilson.
youngest daughter Of the president.
will be married to William Gibbs Nc
Adoo, secretary of the treasury, will
bring together many handsome gowns
and toilettes of the bridal party and
the limited number of guests who are
to attend, chiefly the wives of the vice
president and cabinet officers.
While it has been known for some
time that the arrangements for the
wedding were to be simple, and In con-
trast with some of the brilliant func-
tons Of the past. yet this has not at
fected the desire of the limited few
who had reason to believe they would
witness the event from making early
preparations for gowns suitable to a
function of this character One trouble
some question has been the hour OF the
ceremony, o'clock-midway between
the usual requirements Of an afternoon
or an evening gown. and also raising
the question Of whether a hat was
suitable to be worn at a 6 o'clock we'd

But these details have now been

irons and maids who are to witness the
marriage. Nearly all of them will wear
gowns not seen here before this sea-
son, and taffetas in light shades with
cream and white laces, have been the

Mrs. Marshall. wife of the vice pres

and lace, made in the prevailing ruff
ned style. the skirt partly draped. with
broad embroidered fiounces of net, and
narrower ones with lace edges. The
bodice has the lace and net in q soft
kimono blouse effect.
Mrs. Bryan, wife Of the secretary of
state, will wear very modish gown of
taupe taffeta, which has large flow
cred pattern of roses in deep shades
all over it, The draped skirt shows a
petticoat in front OF embroidered old
rose chiffon. The chiffon is also in
serted in the softly draped waist but a
line Of nearly white and very fine lace,
edged the V-shapd neck opening. Mrs
Bryan selected one of her small toques
to wear with this dress-a becoming
model in black tulle and Jet
Mrs. Houston. wife of the secretary
of agriculture. will wear white-a very
pretty model in lace. with touches Of
jet and made over white. The sash
and girdle are of old gold satin.
Mrs Lane, wife of the secretary of
the interior. has chosen from among
her new frocks. a stylish but simply
made one of black lowered tissue over
lavender chiffon. Both these gauzy
