Mr. Richard Nixon and Miss Agnes Doiph were wedded last night at the Church of the Epiphany: in the presence of a large number of people. Dr. Geisy performed the service, and Mr. James Alll- son, of Kentucky, supported the m. The bridal dress was ‘a superb gown of stand-alone White moire, with a square train four yards long. ‘The bodice was low, and the short sleeves were of pointe duchesse lace. ‘The front of the skirt was cunning! araped with pointe duchesse, and the veil of Uulle fell to the edge of the court train, She da prayer book bound in white moire, from. ‘the service Was read that made her Mrs. Nixon. ‘The dress, with its sumptuous train, was very rich and attracted much notice and ‘com- ment. The bridesmaids were Miss Floyd-Jones, Miss Failing, Miss Scranton, Miss Kelly, Miss Means, and Miss Koberts, and’ Miss Odeneal acted as maid of honor. They wore short dresses of white tulle and pointe a’esprit, with bodices of moire antique lace, low and sleeveless and gar- hished with bows of moire ribbon. They wore short veils of tulle. ‘The ushers were Mr. ; Brainerd, Mr. Baxter, Mr. Ruff, Dr. Crawford, Mr. | Northro and Lieut. Morrill, ‘he groomsmen were Mr. Jules Boenfue, Mr. Harry Reynolds, Mr. Zachary, Mr. Haywood, Mr. J. D. Livingstone, and Mr. Chester Dolph. The men preceded the brides- mids, in couples, and the bride, upon the arm of Senator Dolph, brought up the line. They made a very effective ‘chancel grouping, and the service Was an impressive one. Mrs. Dolph, who was at the church, wore an elegant combination of black yelvet and black and white striped satin, the lat- ter forming the train. The front was laid in plisses of white lace, and the bodice was cut V- shaped back and front, ‘The reception at the rest- dence of Senator Dolph was an elaborate affair, ‘The rooms were profusely decorated with vases of flowers. Mrs. Dolph received the guests inside the drawing-room door, and Mr, and Mrs, Nixon re- celved the greettt Irfends in another portion of the room. ‘The 1,500 cards of invitation sent out were surely all accepted. ‘The church was crowded, and the house late in the eve was impassable.

THE RIFLE MATCH AT THE ARSENAL. —— Scenes at Camp Washington—The Rain and the Finances—Companies Return- ing Home—Recreations of Camp Life, kee —— When the soldier boys at Camp George Wash- Ington turned out to answer the roll-call this morning they were delighted to find a warm, bright sun and an absolutely cloudless sky togreet them. But far more cheering to them was the re- freshing breeze which rustled through the trees and made the flags on their staffs wave proudly above the tents, Before 9 o'clock the sun had destroyed nearly all evidences of the rain-fall last evening, and things about the camp resumed their normal aspect, Preparations were early begun for the competitive drills, the com- antes who were to compete spending the morning hours in cleaning their uniforms and arms. On all sides there was bustle and activity, the pretty ginis” began to come, tn; the peanut Vendors, and “ee cold lemonade” ‘men on the outskirts of the camp Wheeled their stocks of eat. ables and drinkables into positiow_ and displayed them to the already thirsty crowds; and wagons loaded down with food for the ever hungry soldiers jolted over the roads into camp. Everthing gave fair promise that the fourth day of the National Drill would be one of interest and pleasure to all concerned. GENERAL ORDERS. ‘The following orders have been issued: GENERAL ORDERS, No. 12. Commands desiring to offer escort to the Grand Army of the Republic on Decoration day, Monday, May'30, Will notify these headquarters "before 12 m, to-morrow.

The men will be formed tn one squad and put througa arigid drill and “drilled down,” ‘That Js, as errors are inarked against the men they will De dropped out from the Hine, and the list nan lett will take the prize. ‘The drill 1s conducted something on the principle of a spelling maten, WHY THRY LEFT. ‘The Richmond Greys, who left the camp of the Virginia brigade for home to-day, did so according toan understanding their captain had with Gen, Anderson when he brouzht his company here, The mpany 1s made up largely of workingmen, who uid not afford to remain away from their work for a Week, and It Was und return hothe atter they had drilled.

CAMP KECREATIONS. When the soldier boys resurned to Camp George Washington after their long and tedious parade yesterday afternoon they took things easy. ‘The heavy and uncomfortable full dress uniform coats were replaced by fatigue uniforms, and some were satistied to go In their shirt sleeves. Many could be seen siting in groups under the beautiful shade trees, reading the papers or letters, some es- corting Ledies about camp, and others stretched out at (uli length on the grass enjoying a fragrant pipe, or endeavoring to obtaln a little rest by a comfortable snooze, ‘The latter dificult to accomplish, and none tried 4¢ for any length of Ume, for Uhere was too much going on, Hundreds of visitors were wandering ‘through’ camp, and there Was a continual babel of voices. Soine of the boys, ready for fun, got hold,of a big plece of A BLANKET-TOSST! canvas, and the time honored camp frolic of tossing in the blanket was inaugurated, ‘The crowd Soon found out what was going on, and swarmed to the vicinity, ‘The tossers were not at all particular as to Whoin they tossed. Anybody: that looked like a good subject was Suddenly rabbed and pitched headiong into the blanket. Most of the soldiers who were tossed were old hands at the business, and enjoyed the sensation a5 much as the blanket-holders did. Occastonally one would show thavhe had never been there before, and would vainly cluteh the air ashe turned somer- Sault after somersault, ‘The erowd become very enthuslastic. Half-grown colored boys tossed the dest, and they caused the most amusement. With eyes showing nearly double the amonut of ‘white, they looked as if they thought each toss would end life. Every time they struck the blanket they would vainly ‘endeavor to clutch tt, only to find themselves Once imore shooting through the air, destined to land again in another shape. ‘The Infantry Company Drills. To-day, from 10 o'clock to 2, was set apart for the second series of company drills. Eight com- panies were tohave drilled on Tuesday, but the failure of the Grand Rapids Company to put in an appearance reduced the number to seven. The second eight companies who drew the correspond- ing numbers by lot went through the required maneuvers with commendable promptness to-day. ‘The muste of the day was rendered by the Eldora band, of Towa. At 10 ovclock quite a number of Spectators were Seated in the grand stand, when THE GOVERNOR'S GUARD, OF RALEIGH, N. Cy filed up and stacked their arms in front ot it. ‘Their appearance was unusually attractive, as their uniform was handsome without being gaudy. ‘The dark blue trousers had broad white stripes, and the frock coats, of, the same shade of blue, were well set off by'gilt bands across the ch nd small gilt epaulettes. The men wore plain white helmets, which were becoming, and gave them a very Lusiness-like appearance. "This 1s the Youngest organization competing, having been armed but eight months, and, ‘under the cireum- stances; thelr work was highly creditable, Some of the movements were gone through with the accuracy of veterans, but, of cout ‘the made occasional breaks, whteli faiiitaced, agalnce them. The work was fully up to the average, however. ‘Their ‘Was first-class, although they showed mark uiltarity ‘in their galt, moving witha. cortaln swing that was ‘NOt apparent in the other companies peted, The three judges followed the troops around, ‘as on Tuesday, carefully watching each movement and noting thé result in the record books, which ‘they: nin thelr hands.
