JOHN'S Arrangements for the Marriage of Miss Blaine. MRS. SARTORIS’ VISIT HOME. >—_— St. John’s Church was the scene today at noon of a wedding ceremony on which a large concourse of friends looked with pleasure. Miss Eugenia Hill, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hill, was married to Mr. George Benney of Pittsburg by Rev. Mackay-Smith. The chancel was elaborately set with palms and the altar decked with roses and lilies. The ushers were Mr. Lee Phillips, Mr. McKnight and Messrs. Phil- lips and Brown Hill, brothers of the bride. ‘The audience which they assisted in seating represented the old families of the West End, and had many a friendly smile and nod to bestow upon one another. When the bridal party came into church the ushers led the procession, followed by the maid of honor, Miss Edith Davidge, who was pret- tily gowned in light green moire antique, a dainty hat to match, trimmed with roses, and carrying a bouquet of La France roses. The bride came in with her father, and was met at the chancel rail by the groom and his best man, who was his brother, Mr. James Benney of Pittsburg. The bridal toilet was of white satin, lightened with chiffon, the bodice being high-necked, and having large puffed sleeves. Her tulle veil was held by a diamond star, the gift of her mother. She carried a white-bound prayer book and a bouquet of lilies of the valley. After the ceremony a wedding breakfast followed at the residence of the bride's grandmother, Mrs. Phillips, on H street, ich was attended bya e circle of the intimate friends of the family. The rooms were handsomely decorated, and the bay window in which th ple stood to re- ceive congratulations w: bower of green. The bride received upward of two hundred presents, and the display of jewelry in the collection was simply dazzling. Among the guests at the breakfast were Mrs. Living- ston of New York, Mrs. Walter Carrington and Miss Carrington, aunt and cousin of the bride, from Baltimore; Mr. and Mrs. Cropper, Miss Cropper, Countess Esterhazy, Mrs. and the Misses Emory, Mr. and Mrs. Emmons, Lieut. and Mrs, Mulligan, Mrs. Ogsden, the Misses Davidge, Mr. and Mrs. Howland, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Riggs, Mr. and Mrs. James Johnston, Mrs. Alex. Ma- gruder, Mrs. Nicholson, Mrs. Pitt Cooke, Miss Phoenix, Mr. and Mrs. Morton Mitch- ell, Mr. and Mrs. Ben Hellen, the Misses Stout, Admiral Franklin, Mrs. Audenreid, Senator and Mrs. Wolcott, Mrs. and the Misses Kinney and Mrs. Henry Reynolds. Mr. and Mrs. Benney left on a late afternoon train for a short journey, and will go later to their home in Pittsburg, where an ele- gant new residence awaits their coming. The bride is the granddaughter of the dis- tinguished jurist, the late Judge Phillips, and a grandniece of the late W. W. Cor- coran. The groom is a popular young man of Pittsburg and one of the promising iron manufacturers of that city. Mr. and Mrs, William Walter Pheips have offered their country place on the Hudson to Mr. Truxton Beale and Miss Blaine for the first weeks cf their married life, and the couple will go there the day of their marriage for a stay before going out to California. Mr. and Mrs. Phelps’ pres- ent to the bride-elect is a set of eight solid silver candelabra, made after a most elaborate antique pattern. Mr. and Mrs. Howland have given her a silver-mounted traveling bag, and from Mr. Coolidge of Boston she has received a diamond butter- fly of great value. The wedding next Mon- day will bring together all the intimate friends of the bride and groom and their families. Everything seems to be transpir- ing to make the event one of the happiest which has ever taken place in the house- hold of the bride. She has received almost as many presents as are usually showered on royalty, and of quite as elaborate a character. She has received presents from people she has never seen herself, but who were friends and admirers of her father. Among the glittering collection there are several simple gifts from old neighbors of the family in Augusta, and all are equally treasured. The wedding dress has come from New York. It is rather simply and girlishly made, of heavy white corded silk. The bodice is high-necked, and has a soft collar of silk. A bertha effect of deep Duchess lace, with the ends crossing in front, below the waist line, has one side caught with a rosette of chiffon, and the other by a bunch of orange blossoms. Down the sides of the skirt are festooned flounces of the lace. These superb Duchess flounces are the gift of the bride's aunt, Miss Abagail Dodge. The wedding will be just as simple and as devoid of display as it 1s possible to make it. The bride will have no attenda although the babies of the family, Mr. and Mrs. Wi ter Damrosch’s two-year-old daughter, Mrs.Emmons Blaine’s four-year-old son,and the two Coppinger boys, willadd a_pictur- esque touch to the family gathering. All the family will lay aside their mourning for the occasion, and the bride will practically lay off hers entirely, as her going-away gown and the other gowns in her trousseau are in mauves, grays and whites. Mrs. Blaine will close her house here shortly after the wedding and return to Augusta, Maine, where she will spend most of the summer, Miss Blaine has had charge all winter of a branch of charity work among the most forlorn of those who needed help. She has just therefore become thor- cughly famillarized with the needs of the poor, and In her present happiness has not forgotten to make substantial provision for her charges. Wealthy friends have shower- ed the finest gems on her, but it is doubtful if their good wishes could be as heartfelt as those which have come from some poor girls she has helped along in their struggle for a lvelthood. The invitations to the wedding ceremony are entirely verbal, Miss Blaine asking her particular friends as :he meets them from day to day, and the groom doing the same with his. Mrs. Nelly Grant Sartoris has been invited by Mrs. Blaine, with a few other especially distinguished people, and chiefly among those who came to the house during the lifetime of Mr. Blaine. On the wedding day the drawing room, where the ceremony will take place, well be decked with white lilac, because it is the favorite spring flower of the bride, and roses, because no bridal scene could be complete without them. Mrs. Nelly Grant Sartoris, who ts spend- ing a month in this city, will remain here until the real warm weather comes. She is giving some attention to the selection of a house, but does not at this time intend to buy, but to rent, for a year, a furnished residence. Her ambitions, too, are rather modest, for she does not care to be burden- ed with a large house, so that she is con- fining her search entirely among the avail- able dwellings of the average size that will not require a legion of servants to run the domestic machinery. Her eldest son, who now about seventeen, will remain in Enj land, with occasional vacation trips to this country until he finishes his education at Oxford, which is carrying out the wishes of his English grandfather. He will, how- ever, come to America to celebrate his ma- jority and will then become an American citizen. His mother wishes him to take a course of law in this country after his English education is finished and then go to work and carve out a career for himself. As Mrs. Sartoris naively says, the fortune left him by his grandfather will always pro- vide his bread, but that he must work if he expects to enjoy any “jam.” Young Sartoris is thoroughly American in his tastes. His mother says that she wants her boy to earn his own living either at a profession, if he continues in his chosen desire to study law, or else go into some business, but he will never have her per- mission to speculate with any of his for- tune. She says that the attempts to make any money in this way resulted in sad failures for her family and in the Sartoris family precisely the same. Mrs. Sartoris says that she has never in years enjoyed such genuine happiness as she does now in her sensations in being back again among the friends and scenes of her child- hood. Mrs. Gresham took her to the White House yesterday to call upon Mrs. Cleveland and she is the special guest at an entertainment of some sort almost every day. When her son and eldest daughter leave school, in a month or so, they will come from England to spend the summer with their mother and younger sister and the family will be altogether again until the fall. Mrs. Sartoris is looking very young and pretty now that she has laid her mourning aside and her manner plain- ly shows the enjoyment she is having tn re- newing the associations of her girlhood days in Washington. Mrs. Charles Gibson will go today to ap26 Newark, Ohio, to be present there on Sat- i@| Commander and Mrs. Reisinger and Miss King of that city. The —— have been engaged for some time, but not expect to get married just yet. The prospect of living at such an extreme distance from each other was too much, however, and so they very wisely determined to be married at once. Lieut. Holliday has been ordered to Puget Sound, for which point he will start immediately after his marriage, and the newly married couple will make their home there at the navy yard. Mrs. Gibson is delighted with the happy ending of the en- gagement and started on her trip today to give her blessing to the in the happiest possible frame of mind. She will be back here by Sunday night and intends to leave town again on Wednesday next af yecdigereig — down at Easton, and urn here again for an: stay during the present session.

Bath the bride's and bridegroom's grand- mothers were great granddaughters of Martha Washington. There was present at the ceremony Mrs. Kennon, widow of Com- modore Kennon and great-granddaughter of Martha Washington, who is eighty years oid. Mrs. Williams, mother of the bride, has resided at the Fifth Avenue Hotel for the last twelve years, and her suite of twenty-one rooms was decorated in honor of the occasion. It was a “pink and white” wedding, and the decorations followed this color scheme. The ceremony took place under a fioral canopy from which hung pendant three im- mense bells of choice roses and flowers and surrounded by a wilderness of daisies. The bride, a pretty and attractive blonde, wore a gown of heavy white satia, gar- nished with a profusion of rare point lace. Her veil of the same webby material was a family heirloom. A tiara of diamonds, the gift of her aunt, Mrs. May. A pendant of pearls and diamonds were also worn, the gift of the bridegroom. Miss Agnes Peter, a sister of the bridegroom, was the maid of honor. She wore white crepe and pink bows. Mr. Walter Peter, brother of the bridegroom, was the best man. There were no ushers.’ The ceremony was performed by ‘the Rev. Dr. H. H.

Va., took place last evening at the residence of the bride, on R street. 17 ceremony was performed assisted by Rev. Fathers Maynadier, Foley and Byrnes. The entrance and paroirs, which were beautifully decorated with palms, asparagus vines and La France roses, presented a charming scene, and were a fitting frame to the wedding party as they advanced from the rear parlor to the bay window, where the bishop stood. The monogram of the bride and groom in red and white carnations formed the cen- terplece of the floral decorations. At & o'clock the strains of the wedding march announced the coming of the bridal part and the ushers, Mr. J. A. Cauldwell and Mr. Robt. Allen, stretched the white rib- bons down the center of the room. Mir. Louis B. Gleeson and Mr. Charles L.

Commissioners today concerning the bill authorizing the extension of the Columbia| railway, say: “In making report on House] bill 6724—authorizing the extension of + bia, we would most respectfully and urgent-| ly ask your careful attention to the third! and urgently sought closer communi- cation with the city; and will hail with joy brought render a sufficient nor acceptable service, being so far on the outskirts of the popula- jon. “The natufal and most convenient termi- | mation, and one that would give general | satisfaction and greatest accommodation for the present, would be a on the Benning road to point of intersection by Central avenue. Then the outflow from. three roads would be accommodated end convenient terminal facilities obteined with- out interfering with any other class of travel. Therefore, we pray you most earn- estly to consider the needs of the people in the proposed extension, and recommend in your report such iurthet extension as prayed for.” Notes. A. W. Whitlark has called the attention of the Commissioners to the poor surface | sewerage at the corner of Kenesaw avenue | and 16th street extended, and suggests that | the gutters be cleaned and sufficient grade given to allow the water to flow along 16th Street.

From the St. Joseph Herald. “Some girls are too cute for anything, remarked a Boston drummer, with his left arm off at the elbow. “As to how?” inquired the hotel clerk, who was a connoisseur. “In yarious ways,” continued the drum- mer, “but in one particular way which re- cently became a part of my experience.” “For instance?” suggested the clerk. “It happened out in Missourl,” said the drummer. “I stopped over Sunday in a little town where one of my customers had @ rather pretty daughter, and to while away the time I asked her to go buggy rid- ing with me, which she consented to do very readily.’ As were about to get in she hesitated a moment. * ‘What is it?
