C. Nichols and Mr. Baron William Riley, only surviving son of William Riley esq., of Leamington Spa, England, Tuesday at high noon at the resi- denco of the bride 3012 Mason street. Although the wedding was a very quiet one, ouly the relatives of the family and a few intmate friends being present, ou t of consideration for the iliness of the bride’s grandmother, Mrs. De Pui, still it wasan exceedingly sweet and prett y ceremony, one that will bo remembered for its delightful charm ana its freedom from over elaboration. The day was perfect—an ideal spring day— the breezy biue sky, the warm sunshine and the big white sails now and then drifting across the blue making it as one fair young woman said, “genuine bride’s weather, such as 1 want when I follow in the footsteps of tho bride of today.” The cosy home of the bride's parents was utifully decorated with flowers, the man- being banded with hycinths, roses, of the valloy, while in’the southwest coruer of the drawing-room a bower of green was erected, ornamented with myriad Eastor lilios, whicll gave forth & perfamo that al- most’ seemed audible, F'rom the ceiling of the window ropes of smilax were deftly sus- te! lilies pended, forming a canopy shadowing the friodieu, which was restiug on a large far rug. At noon, just as the clocks were striking the midday hour, the soft music from several mandolins stationed in the hallway, behinga a screen of \mlms, playiug the wedding march, sunounced the approach of the bridal proces- sion. Two phetty young flrln, Miss Bertha Sloan and Miss Grace Nichols, as maids of honor, led the procession, drawing broad ribbons of white silk botween the guests and the princi- pal participants in the coremony. Foilowing ht young ladies came the bride, leaning on the “arm of ner fatber, Mr. M. C. Nichols, then the groom and his best man. Mr. J. A, Vopp, and the ofticiating eclergyman, Rev, C. M. Gardner, dean of Trinity cathedral. After the ceremony, which was beautiful'y yead by the dean, and before the gues were privileged to tender their congratu- Jations, the bride and groom, with the ofticiating clergyman repaired to the room oc- cupied by Mrs. De Pui, who was wo ill to bo rosont at the ceremonies proper, and the nal benediction was there pronounced, the grandmother being the first to tender her con- gratulatious. @ return of the newly united couple to the drawing room was the signal for a host of well-wishes from the guests in attendance. Refroshments were served later in the dining-room aud library, the bride and groom presiding lu the former room. The bride, who is a very pretty blonde, tite and vivacious, wore a handsome travel- ng costume of heavy vieuna oloth, simply. made, the coat Louis XIV style and a close fitting hat covered with violets, "The maids of honor, Miss Sloan and Miss Nichols, both brunettes, wore gowns of white 11][& challie trimmed with white ribbons and ace. Mr. and Mrs, Riley left at 4:30 for a visit to New York, Washington, Baltimore, Philadel- phia, and before returning will visit relutives of the bride 1 New York and Penusysvan ia. The wedding journey will occupy about three weeks, after which {vlr. and Mrs. Riley will reside with the bride's parents at 3012 Mason street until autumn, when they will visit the ancestral home of the groom at Lemington Spa, Engluna, a short ride from London, The presents recelved were many and bandsome, including rare china, cut glass aud silver, Before leaving the house the bride ascended the stalrway, and having gatherod all her un- mwarried girl friends who were present, below her, throw her wedding bouquet into the vy of young women, which was captured 7, by Miss Tda Sharp, who, to preserve the old legend, must marry within the yoar. GOODSON AND LEWIS, Whilo vaguely intimated thata wodding wos to take place among the teachers of the nigh school at an carly day, the knowing ones confidently thought that Mr. Homer P. Lewis the principal of tho school and Miss ulizabeth Portia Goodson, one of the bright teachiers in the department would not be united in marriage until the close of the term. But the wiseacres were confounded on Mon- day by the ceremony which_unived the for- tunes of Miss Goodson and Mr. Lowis, the wedding taking place at? 0 at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. W. S. Curtis, 2214 Chicago stroet. Rev. Mr. Munn of Unity church officiated, tho relatives of the contracting parties, which included Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lewis of Lincoln, Mr. and Mrs, Frank Leiwis, Mi Bello Lewls of Omaha, Mr. aud Mrs. J. B. Goodson of St. Louis, father and mother of the bride and Mrs. Bacon sister of tho bride being present.

They will be at home to their friends at 116 north Twen- ty-sixth street, Tho bride is an excoedingly bright and lovely woman, and one of the ablest teachers in the west, but rumor says that after the c10so of the present term stie will resign her position to devote all her timeto the cares of the household, making for Mr, Lewis, what be has long wanted, an ideal homo.
