Franey Wilson Toney, the en- tire delightful! affair being a burlesouc promoted as popular entertainment boy the Boosters club of the Y. M. c. A., under the leadership and direction of Frank Hayes, with many promi- nent citizens taking roles. The iden- tlty of each is disclosed in the second name of the actors
 Beforestha hour of the ceremony an elaborate musical program was ren- dered by some of the "best talent" in the city, accompanied by Miss Winnie Clegg (Prof. McNeiD on the piano. The following musical numbers were gwen:
 70 Promise Me-" Miss L. Hines Broadstreet.
 My Rosary" Miss E. Yordy Schloss.
 Solo, Miss Joe Gartman Ferguson.
 Il Love You Truly" Mrs. J. Garner Core.
 As a quartet the four performers several selections, and these were followed by
 Quartet-Miss V. Reeves Harrel, Miss Yordy, Miss Broadstreet.
 Solo, Mme Robinson Lydia
 Violin Solo, Somewhere Voice is Calling" Sylvester Farrar.
 Each number was quite character lstic of the performer, and the ap preciative audience was entertained to the fullest. A special feature of the occasion was Mme. Robinson Lydia's selection, an artist who has beauti- ful "lyric soprano" voice.
 The wedding ceremony was per- formed by "Rev. T. M. Hooker,' the beautiful ring service being used. For the occasion the spacious tabernacle was tastefully decorated in various spring flowers, Easter lilies, and stately palms. Hyacinths and ever greens were effectively used on the platform.
 Just before the ceremony the lief ferson home guards, who had been used to suppress undue hilarity on the part of the crowd, took position on the platform.
 At 9 o'clock "Miss Clegg' sent forth the first sweet strains of Men delssohns' wedding march, to which the bridal party entered. The brides family, composed of MT and Mrs. J. Isaac Nitengale, with their two chil- dren, Emily Caroline Fox and Samuel Dowdy, entered just before the bridal party.
 The bride entered on the arm of ''her" father, and was met at the plat form steps by the groom, with his best man, Garland Brewster.
 The stately "Miss Nitengale" was becomingly attired in gown of duchess satin and lace, with spangle trimmings. It was a gorgeous crea- ton, made hustle effect, and Turkish trousers. The magnificent court train was carried by the cunning lit tie train bearers, Frankie Hays and Louine Emmaline Dassett. The bride wore veil of tulle, fastened with a cand of orange blossoms, and caught high in the back.
 After the "ceremony,' the bridal party left the tabernacle to the strains of Lohengrin's professional.
 Programs containing pictures of the 'bride" were sold, and eagerly snatch ed up at 50 cents each. The receipts go to the Red Cross.
 The personnel of the bridal party included popular and widely known people. The cast was published yes terday.
