THE WORLD OF SOCIETY The Wedding Today of Miss Sherman and Mr. McCallum. The Weddings and Entertainments Which Interested the Gay World Yesterday—Personal Notes, The marriage of Miss Mary Stewart Sher- man, daughter of Senator and Mrs. Sher- man, to Mr. James Ives McCallum of this ¢ity took place today at 12 o'clock at the Sherman residence in the presence of a company of relatives and personal friends of the couple. There were quantities of palms set around the fine hall, which is the great feature of the white marble mansion. In the mein drawing room, where the ceremony took place, palms and white blooming bushes were grouped in the wide square bay window to form a bower, under which the couple stood to se married. Excepting that the marriage took place in such a spacious house and In the presence of a company most of whose fam- ily names are familiar to the whole coun- try, the event was very simple and entirely without ostentatious display. Just at noon the bridal party entered the drawing room, the bride escorted by Sen- ator Sherman, and preceded by her two cousins as attendants, Miss Miles, daugh- ter of General and Mrs. Nelson Miles, and Miss Hoyt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Hoyt of New York city. Mr. Newell of Boston supported the groom as best man. The procession as it passed down the broad staircase and through the hall to the front drawing room made a fine effect. The ceremony was perform- ed by Rev. Randolph McKim, rector of Epiphany Church. The bride was gowned in white satin duchess made very simply, with a short train, and high-necked bodice, trimmed with chiffon and duchess lace. A scarf of chiffon fell from the waist line at the left side and was caught near the hem of the dress by a rosette. A veil of tulle enveloped her slight figure and was caught to her hair by diamond ornaments and a wreath of orange blossoms. Her bridesmaids wore stylish gowns of white corded silk and antique lace and carried bouquets of La France roses. Mrs. Sher- man received the guests in a superb gown of gray satin and lace. The ushers were Mr. Walter Davidge and Mr. Lee Philips. After the ceremony the guests partook of breakfast, the table in the dining room being prettily decked in white and green. In the family group witnessing the cere- mony was Senator Sherman's only sister, Mrs. Reese of Lancaster, Ohio, who is eighty-three years old, with Mr. and Mrs. Wiborg of Cincinnati, Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt ot New York, Mr. John Hoyt, jr, Mra. Probasco of Glendale, Ohio, Miss Lizzie Sherman, Mr. William Tecumseh Sherman and Mrs. Thackara of Philadelphia, who are the guests of Senator and Mrs. Sher- man. The groom's relatives, his mother and his sisters, the Misses McCallum and Mrs. Dr. Robbins, were also present. Dur- ing the afternoon Mr. and Mrs. McCallum started off for their wedding trip, but only intend to make a short stay in New York eity. Upon their return they will go to hcusekeeping in the house next door to the present residence of Senator Sherman, on K street, which the family formerly occu- pied themselves. While a large number of those prominent in senatorial circles and the diplomatic corps were present the guests were all invited by the bride herself and censequently there were more young than old people, although the assemblage included some of the justices of the Su- preme Court and their families, the officials of the court and their familles. Representative Claude A, Swanson of Virginia and Miss Lizzie Lyors, daughter of Mrs, Addie Deane Lyons of Richmond, were married last night at the residence of the latter, 1315 N street, in the presence of a gathering of relatives id a few in- timate friends. The front drawing room, where the ceremony tock place, was car- peted in white and made a floral bower with palms and plants. The mantels in all the rooms were banked in pink carnations, and this flower had the lead through all the decorations. A snowy white priedieu, “with pillars on either side, surmounted by silver candelabra, the gift of the Virginia congressional delegation, was in front of the palm bower arranged in the bay win- dow. The young cousins of the bride, daughters of Mr. and Mrs, Herbert Ander- son of Baltimore, held the ribbons forming an aisle, down which the bridal cortege passed to the presence of the officiating clergyman, Rev. Mr. Woods of St. John’s Church, Col. Haskins of Richmond, Mr. Patrick of Richmond and Mr. Belt of Dan- ville, Va., were the groomsmen, and Mr. William Swanson of Danville was best man for his brother. Miss Lyons was maid of honor and Miss Page and Miss Talbot of Richmond bridesmaids. They were gowned alike in white silk mull, and carried pink carnations. Miss Grace An- derson, another little niece of the bride, walked in advance of her to carry her flowers. The bride was escorted by her uncle and guardian, Mr. Douglass Deane of Atlanta. Her wedding gown was of white duchess satin, trimmed with point lace, and a diamond star held her veil. A supper fol- lowed the ceremony and congratulations, and later in the evening Representative and Mrs. Swanson started for a trip to Florida, They will reside at 1315 N street this winter. Mrs. Lycns was assisted in receiving the company by her two sisters, Mrs. H, L. Anderson of Baltimore and Mrs. Anna Carr of Richmond, and her daughter, Mrs. Bohmer of Richmond. Among the suests present outside of the family circle were Mrs, James F. Barbour, Miss Bar- bour, Mr. and Mrs, Bushrod Robinson, Mr. *. A. Richardson, Dr. William Sprigg, Mrs. Witmer, Mrs, James Lyens, Mrs. William Stone and Miss Payne. The bride’s pres- ents were superb. President and Mrs. Cleveland expected to move In from their country place today, but were probably deterred by the bad weather. They will move within a day or two, however, Mr. Crosby 8.

Her home, which has not been opened for festive occasions for some time past, was thronged yesterday by their friends, who naturally included a very large representation of the army families, The debutante was gowned in white and carried a bunch of the flowers sent her. There were quantities of other flowers round the room which were sent to the young lady. Mrs. Sheridan had the as- sistance of the Misses Rucker, Miss Gwynn, Miss Patten, Miss Ruggles, Miss Ewing and Miss McCammon in entertaining.

The annual meeting of the Presbyterian Alliance was held last evening in the chapel of the Church of the Covenant. This or- ganization Is composed of those connected with the various Presbyterian churches in the city, and its object ts to aid new churches, to secure property for church purposes in desirable localities, and in other ways help on the work of church ex- tension. Mr. Charles Lyman presided, and the secretary, John B. Wight, made a re- port, in which the question was raised as to whether, in view of the apparent lack of interest on the part of the members, the alliance had better not disband. The his- tory of the alliance was reviewed, and it was stated that only one church site had been secured through the efforts of this organization, namely, the ground on which the Eastern Presbyterian Church is lo- cated. More could have been accomplished, it was stated, if there had been available funds, and if there had been the proper interest shown in the objects of the alli- ance by the members. It was pointed out, in the secretary’s report, that an important work was to be done in securing desirable church sites in the suburbs. The report of the treasurer showed a bal- ance of $108.19. The committee appointed to nominate officers for the ensuing year reported the following list a officers and directors, and the report way adopted: President, John W. Foste?; vice prest- dents, Justice William Strong, William Bal- jantyne and Charles Lyman; secretary, Rev. Adolos Allen; treasurer, Mr. Charles Bailey; directors, Rev. B. H. Bittinger,Rev. George O.

H. Merriwether and Rev. W. C. Alexander. Addresses on the work of the alliance were made by Rev. Howard Wilbur Ennis, pastor of the Western Presbyterian Church, and Rev. Dr. Luccock of the Metropolitan: Church. —_-—-_——. Marriage Licenses. Marriage licenses have been issued by the clerk of the court to William Jiles and Mary E. Morris; John F.

From a reliable source it is learned that Mr. Henry Walters has, since his father’s death, told an intimate frierd that arrange- ments had practically been made whereby the equal share in the art collection which was, by the terms of the late Mr. Walters’ will, bequeathed to Mrs. Warren Delano, woufi be purchased by Mr. Henry Walters, making him the sole owner of the collection. Such an arrangement ts in accordance with Mr. William T. Walters’ will, he having authorized his two children to agree upon money valuation of the collection, and then sell the interest of one to the other at such valuation. ee The delegates to the convention of the Federation of Labor spent yesterday in sight-seeing.
