There was not a vacant seat last night at All Souls’ Church when the bridal proces- sion of Miss Mary Grant Saxton and Mr. Edward Clarkson Seward of New York en- tered. A pyramid of palms and white blooming plants made an effective back- ground behind the reading desk, and the scene, as the ceremony progressed, was a mest pleasing one. An innovation in the arrangements was the service performed by four little girls-Hannah Berliner, Verna Ricketts, Marjorie Chittenden and Harriet Young. They entered the church with long rose garlands strung on their arms. As they passed up the atsle they looped them around the ends of the pews and then stood sentinels back of the pews where the family party was seated. They were pret- tily gowned in white. dotted muslin and white ribbon. The eight ushers, followed by the eight bridesmaids, made a striking group, ranged on either side of the couple during the ceremony. Mr. Clayton Rockhill of New York was best man, and Miss Louise Grant Saxton was the maid of honor. The bride came into church with her father, Mr. 8S. Willard Saxton, and Rev. Rush R. Shippen performed the ceremony. The bride was gowned in white satin, the high-necked bodice prettily trimmed with chiffon and orange blossoms. A diamond and pearl ornament held her tulle veil in place. Her bouquet was of bride roses. The bridesmaids, the Misses Elizabeth Brown, Mattie Bartlett, Louise Carr, Grace Garriott, Mary Draney, Agnes Carruthers, Josephine Nairn and Sarah Rathbone, were dressed in white organdie,the blouse bodices trimmed with frills of point d’esprit and bows of white taffeta ribbon. They car- red bouquets of pink sweet peas. The maid of honor was in pink striped gauze over pink silk, with bows of pink taffeta ribbon. She carried a large bouquet of pink roses. The ushers were Mr. Forrest Brackett of Nashua, N. H.; Mr. Edward Mosely of Hartford; Dr. Lee L. Harban, Mr. J. P. Spindle, Mr. Harry Reed, Mr. Harry Willard, Mr. Henry E. Cooper and Mr. Fenton Bradford. The reception which followed at the resi- dence ef Mr. and Mrs. Saxton, Kenesaw avenue, Mount Pleasant, was a joyous ter- mination of the event. The guests included the intimate friends, as well as the large bridal party and relatives. The house was fragrantly decked with flowers, and in the dining room the wedding cake was the central ornament of the well-appointed table. Mr. and Mrs. Seward left ater for 4 wedding trip north, and will spend most of the summer in the Adirondacks, return- ing to their home, at Montclair, N. J., in the autumn. The bride's presents were nu- merous and valuabie. Her traveling dress was of dark blue broadcloth. . The marriage of Miss Pattie Hardaway, daughter of Col. Edwin James Harvie, to Rev.

The Benning Citizers’ Association was called to order last evening by Vice Prest- dent Mewshaw, and after minutes of last meeting were read and approved the com- mittee on Benning roads reported that re- pairs had been completed by the new power house, and that the road had been resur- faced as far out as 19th street. The re- port was accepted, and then the railroad committee reported matters in good shape. Mr. France of the hall committee said he had eagaged the new town hall for use of the association for one year, and on motion the report was accepted and the committee discharged. The president of the association then ap- pointed Mr. S. R. Heipsley to fill the va- cancy on the railroad committee. It being deemed advisable to increase the number of members on the entertainment commit- tee so as to insure a working membership of at least seven, it was on motion decided to appoint three new members to said com- mittee, provided J. S. Mewshaw should be one of the three. The chair then named Messrs. P. F. Meaney and S. R. Hipsley to complete the committee. It being reported that the only sidewalk in Benning was sadly in need of repair, the committee on sidewalks was instructed to have same repaired. After quite a little discussion it was de- cided to leave the matter of sale and dis- tribution of tickets to the entertainment committee, after which the meeting ad- journed. Immediately after the Citizens’ Associa- tion adjourned the committee on enter- tainment held a meeting and decided to dedicate.the new town hall on the evening of June 25. Complete atrangements for the same were completed before the committee adjourned. ——_. Minnchoha Lodge.

The Work of Construction Expected to Be Shortly Begun—A Prosperous and Progressive Congregation. The majority of the 800 members of the Washington Street Southern Methodist Church, Alexandria, Va. Rev. James T. Williams, pastor, have determined that they want a new church of modern style of architecture to take the place of the building where tae congregation has wor- shiped since 1851, and a meeting of the committee which is to superintend the erec- tion of the new edifice was held last night at the parsonage on King street. The com- mittee is composed of Rev. J. T. Williams, chairman; Messrs. George R. Hill, Henry K. Field, W. H. May, R. B. Graham, J. F. Pollard, George W. Keys, J. C. Smoot and Samuel S. Lindsay. The pastor, who, with Messrs. Hill and Fields, yesterday inspect- ed a number of churches in Washington with a view of building the rew church lke one of them, so far as may be appll- cable to the necds of the Alexandria con- sregation, made a report, and Mr. Will- jams was requested to act as a committee of one for the purpose of ascertaining the relative cost from Baltimore builders of a white marble fron: structure and one made out of pressed brick. It has not been fully determined how ex- pensive a church shall be bullt, some of the members wishing to have an edifice costing not less than $30,000, in which case, if carried out, the structure when com- pleted will be one of the finest in the Bal- timore conference. It is expected that the work of demolishing the old church will be begun in about a month, and that con- struction of the new ed:fice will be far enough advanced to admit of the occu- Fancy of the building befcre cold weather sets in. History of the Congregation. The congregation was organized in 1851 by 200 members of the Methodist Episcopal Church North, whose place of worship fs directly opposite that of the Southern Methodists, and was caused by, local ques- tions, and with no reference to the issues then being discussed betwéen the north and the south. Of the first board of trus- tees Messrs. J. H. Devaughan and William E. Atwell, the latter of whom is now a resi- dent of Washington,are the only survivors. Mr. Devaughan is still actively engaged in business, and is believed to be the oldest Odd Fellow in the state of Virginia. Rev. James Duncan was the first pastor of the new congregation, ministering to them until shortly before they had a home of their own, when he wus succeeded by the great Dr. Leonidas Rosser, who died a few years since, and who during his minis- try of more than half a century was one of ong foremost Methodist preachers of the south. Soon after the outbreak of the war the church was taken possession of by the gov- ernment, the congregation dispossessed and the building used for four years partly as a hospital and partly as a stable. When the congregation retired in 1861 they left be- hind them a very beautiful white marble pulpit, but when they regained ownership in 1865 the pulpit was missing, nor has it been seen by any Alexandrian since, so far as is known. Connected with the church ts a _prosper- ous Sunday school, Mr. James E. Alex- ander, superintendent, with a fine corps of between thirty and forty officers and teachers and a scholarship of 400. > Acting Chief of Engineers. Gen. Craighill has gone to Baltimore and Col.
