Sha “THE DEPENDABLE STORE.” The city is wild over this shoe sale. } Washington has never before known the like of it. News never traveled so rapidly as the news of the great values we're of- fering has traveled since we announced it Saturday and Sunday. With one or two possible exceptions, there isn’t a shoe store in town that ever made such a purchase. Five thousand pairs—think of it! Enough to stock an immense shoe store. The values are $3.50, $4, $5 and $6.00 ones. Such shoes cannot be had for less. And better shoes are not made, for Krip- pendori, Dittman & Co. of Cincinnati are the acknowledged lead- efs. The immense lot consists of chrome and vici kid shoes and a lot of ladies’ vici kid bicycle boots. The former are hand-sewed, hand-welted and hand-turned, are in all sizes and all widths; some have tips of same and of patent leather, some have light and some have double extension soles, with low, medium and high heels; but- ton and lace styles. The bicycle boots are made with kid and cloth tops, in black, brown and tan; some have corrugated soles and all are the most stylish effects shown this season. And $2 19 ° of these $3.50, $4, $5 and $6 values you get the choice To sell more linens in a day for Tomorrow than we have ever sold before. we shall make some really extraordinary values. With no exception this is the largest stock of worthy linens in town, and we come very near doing the largest linen business.

Cupid’s work is beginning to show itself in the numerous wed- dings which are taking place. We can say that we have sup- plied the necessary trousseau footwear of nearly all the swell weddings of the season. That we can serve the requirements of future brides in this matter more satisfactorily and with less trouble than the swell shoe shops of New York is very gratifying, We carry in stock nearly every shade in satin slippers—and from them can match almost every color gown. When some partic- ular shade is desired we can have them made to order from any sample which you will give us. We also have the most stylish novelties in bronze, suede, patent feather and kid. The kind of footwear that is distinctively different from any you see elsewhere is the kind we keep. It excels all others in styl- ishness—and exclusiveness—the city’s leading people wear it. It’s made for the swellest trade— that’s why you find it here. We are showing all the “nov- elties” for carriage, street, recep- tion, evening and dress wear. You won’t find them elsewhere in Washington—only here. New York city hasn't a monopoly on these exclusive styles any longer. Ladies thank us every day for our enterprise. The best and largest stock of men’s shoes—by far—is shown here. Hundreds of swell styles for particular men—enough and more to meet every taste. Scores of styles—in Enamel—Patent Leather — Cordovan —in wine color, green, oxblood, black and russct—as well as Russia Calf in every fashionable shade—many of which are calf lined—New style Box Calf—which requires no blacking—and Oil Grain Calf, in black and tan—the waterproof sort. The best in Bicycle Footwear is found at Rich’s—every one wil! tell you that. Not only the largest stock—but the most exclusive— for every new style is shown, just as soon as designed. B.

Both were home events, and at each was gathered intimate friends of the couples and their families. At the residence of General and Mra. Parke, 16 Lafayette square, a distinguished company, including members of residential families, witnessed the marriage of Miss Emily Blight Parke to Mr. Gracie King Richards of New York. The officiating clergyman was Rev. Elbert Lioyd Jones, jr., rector of St. Mary’s Church, Cold Spring, N. Y., assisted by Rev. Dr. McKim. Mr. Alexander B. Legare and Mr. Arthur T. Goldsborough were ushers, and Mr. i gar Richards, brother of the groom, was bes. man. The bride’s only attendant was Miss Sophia Milligan of Baltimore. The house was elaborately decked with plants— palms, foliage plants and vines. Tne hand Tai! on the staircase was hidden under galax leaves and asparagus vines and dot- ted with white blossoms. The whole ef- fect of so much green was exceedingly tasteful. The decorations of the dining rcom were in keeping. The bride was gowned in a superb white satin and lace, and carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley. Against the white of the dress of the m: of honor the large cluster of American beauty roses, tied with ribbons of the same shade that she cur- ried, was very effective. Mr. and Mrs. Richards left this afternoon for a honey- moon trip, and will reside in this city upon their return. At the same hour a family party wit- nessed at the residence of Major and Mrs. Carson, Vermont avenue, the marriage of their daughter, Miss Adelaide Virginia Car- son, to Dr. Thonias Leslie Macdonald. The large drawing room in which the ceremony took place, the hall adjoining and the din- ing room were handsomely adorned with palms, foliage plants, trailing asparagus vines and white chrysanthemums. The mantels were banked in maidenhair ferns starred with clusters of the chrysanthe- mums. Tne bay window was converted in- to a bower, being filled with palms, and had draperies of asparagus vines looped back with white chrysanthemums. A stringed orchestra played softly during the ceremony. The bride came in with her father, her only attendant being her little niece. Margaret Carson, daughter of Lieut. and Mrs. Carson. The little girl was dressed in white mus- lin. The bride wore white satin, made without trimming, save on the bodice, where lace and chiffon ve the finishing tovenes.

The bride received a numbe' elegant gifts, which, however, were not on exhibition.

The bride wore a tailor-made traveling dress of cadet blue cloth with hat to match. A reception followed at the residence ot Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Auguster- fer, 806 E street northeast, for the relatives of the couple, and later in the day Mr. and Mrs. Colburn started for a wedding trip.
