HAMLIN OFFICIATES The Bridal Gown, the Shower of Gifts and the Honeymoon, OTHER WEDDINGS AND EVENTS In the drawing room of the Blaine man- sion, made more attractive and fragrant with the sight and perfumes of the flowers the bride loves most, and in the presence of 4 gathering of lifelong friends of the couple themselves, and of political associates and admirers of the late James G. Blaine, his youngest daughter, Miss Harriet S. Blaine, became the wife, at 1 o'clock today,of Trux- ton Beale, son of the late Gen. E. F. Beale. The ceremony united two families whose names are widely known ail over the coun- try, and who have resided as neighbors in this city for many years. Since the first rumor of their engagement, three years ago, it seemed such a likely event to occur in the natural order of things that when the official announcement was made, a month or two ago, it occasioned no surprise what- ever. The wedding day was hastened not so much perhaps as not to have it occur in the month of May, as not to wait for June, the month so popular in this city for nup- tial events. From the first it was intended that the wedding should be a quiet one, that those who should witness it would be limited to the relatives and a few friends Miss Blaine. just as interested, but fate ordained other- wise, and while there were no formai invi- | tations, the verbal ones extended brought | together a company as large as any gather-_ THE SOCIAL WORLD The Marriage of Miss Blaine and ed hitherto for a festive occasion in the Blaine household.

The lace flounces on the wedding dress were the gift of Miss Abagail Dodge. Among the other gifts were more lace flounces, cases of silver spoons and quantities of silver ornaments and dishes. ‘The wedding cate was a superb structure garlanded with roses. There were souvenir boxes of it for the guests to carry away. Mrs. Blaine laid aside her mourning ard wore an elegant gown of ivory white satin trimmed with chantilly lace. Mrs. Blaine and Mrs. Damrosch were also in light toilets. In the family group looking at the cere- mony were the young sons of Col.

The general tint of the room is a creamy white. The pillars, the doorways and the picture cords were twined with aspargus vines. A new blossom for decorating, the old-fashioned bloom of the bouganvalli bush, which has delicate mauve pink flowers and foliage like the lilac, was extensively used in deck- ing the room. Great branches of it filled tall vases in the four corners of the room. The space near the firepiace at the north end of the apartment was reserved for the ceremony. A white ribbon was stretched from the library doors to the window. The mantel and the fireplace under it were im- bedded in maiden-hair fern and lilacs. An arch of ferns outlined the mirror, and with this rich background an artistic blending of white lilacs, some roses and pink orchids made a garland of beauty. In green vines trailed along the mantel edges. In the dining room, where a collation was spread, there were more flowers placed about in vases, but no set decoration.

Later in’ the afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Beale started for New York, and will spend the first weeks of their married life on the Hudson, at the country seat of Mr. William Walter Phelps.

He had moldings made of some of the inscriptions on the hall of Xerxes, the first ever brought to the western world, and which are now in the National Museum. When he returned he brought with him a number of the fat-tatled sheep, from which the famous Persian wool is produced, and he is now raising sheep on the Tejon ranch, in California,very successfully, the climate being especially favorable.

Teunis Hamlin, pastor of the Church of the Covenant, stepped in- to the ribboned inclosure from the library and awaited the coming of the twain whom >! he was to make one While Mr. Walter Damrosch was pouring out his soul in the pleasing melody of an improvised wedding march at the grand piano, the groom and his best man, Mr. Edwin A. Woolston of New York, and the bride, escorted by her brother, Jas. G. Blaine, came in the draw- ing room from the library. The ceremony was impressive although short, and ‘mme- diately after it the couple turned their smiling faces to the company to receive the kisses of their relatives and the hearty congratulations of their friends. The bride in her wedding finery lookea very attractive. The white dress had a shapely cut, and was becoming to her tall figure. The material in it—heavy corded silk—needed no trimming. On the skirt there was none save a flounce of lace, festooned down each side of the front width and caught with little clusters of orange blos- soms. The high-necked waist had a yoke of plaited chiffon, a crush collar of the silk, a bertha effect formed of the exquisite Duchess lar. the ends of which crossed in front at the waist line, and were fastened by a rosette on one side and orange blos- soms on the other. Her tulle veil was held to her hair by a spray of orange biossoms. The bouquet she carried was of lilies of the valley and pink orchids. The men of the bridal party and family wore boutonnieres of the same flowers. In a front chamber on the third floor were displayed the wedding presents. They are marvelously beautiful. The groom’s gift Was a diamond spray; two diamond stars, one from Mrs. Beale, the groom’s mother, another from Mr. John R.
