Granddaughter of Quesn Viotoria Married to Prinoo Aribert of Anhalt, CEREMONY PERFORMED AT WINDSOR CHAP Most Brilliant ent Since the Wed- ding of the Late Duke of Alb.ny ~Distinguished People in Attendance Lownoy, July 6.—Princess Loufse, second daughter of the Prince and Princess Christian of Schleswig-Holst 1 grand daughter of the queen of England, was married today to Prince Aribert of Anhalt. 'The ceremony took place in the historic chapel of Windscr castle amid a scona of splendor and with the most imposing ceremonies, As tbe hour fixed for tho coremony—4 o'clock in the afternoon —drow near, Windsor castle and its neighborhood was fairly alive with people. Not since the marriage of the late duko of Albany has the chahel been crowded with so many distinguished people, and not since that cvent has the chapel been 50 crowded with members of royal families. The routa followed by the procession was the castle hill and was lined on both sides with troops. All the castle guards of bonor were mounted on every available voint. The royal standard of Great Britain from the highest tower of the castle floated proudley over the whole. Down Castle hill Eton boys on the sward on the left ran with the carriages containing the bridegroom'’s family, composiug the tirst scction of the pro- cession, The second section consisted of the state ages, which conveyed tho emperor aud empress of Germany and the imperial party with tho prince and princess of Wales, tho duke and duchess of Edinburg, tho duke and duchess of Connaught, Prince Heary of Bat- tenberg and his wife, the Princess Beatrice, the Princess Louise and the duchess of Fife. The prince of Anhalt, the bridegroom weariug a German uniform, with his attend- ants formed the third section of the proces- sion. The queen of England n the most claborate of all carriages, surrounded by life guardsmen, formed the fourth of this bewil- dering, attractive panorama. ‘The queen was greeted overwhelmingly with the wildest acclaim of loyalty. 3 The bride, accompanied by her father, Priuce Christian of Schlewig-Holstein and by ber brother, had already driven from Cumberluna lodge, their residence, to Wind- sor castle, and as the queen started for St. George's chapel the bride and her two male relatives followed. As each and every mem ber of the imperial or royal families reached the chapel royal their arrival was heralded by a resounding blast from the bugles of tho state trumpeters. At the chupel doors the wedding guests were received by the Lord Chamberlain, the Earl of Lutham, who ushored them with much ceremony to their places about the altar. In frout of the altar @ dais was orected and covered with a blue velyot carpet, with the order of the garter aud the royal arms handsomely interwoven 1 its center. Upon this royal carpet wero velvet and gold seats for the members of the imperial and royal families. The banners of the Knights of the Garter, all renewed for the occasion, overhung the'scats of the other important glests. Besides plants and flow- ers there were no other decorations. The prince of Wales entered the chapel having upon his arm the empress of Germany, who wore & green moire autique. They were followed by the em- peror of Gormany, escorting the princess of Wales, who was ' sparkling with German orders and who wore a most splendid parure of diamonds. Tho emperor and princess were followed by the queen of England, who wore asimple black dress, plainly though gracefully made. Upon her' head the queen wore a beautiful diamond_cornet, but with this exception there was little orno orua- mentation about the queen’s attire. After Queen Victoria had been escorted by the lord chamberlain to the seat of honor the bridegroom, in company with his two brothers, appeared and was led to the altar by the lord chamberlain, About ten minutes later the bride arrived, supported by her fathor and brother. The briae's dress was of ¢ whito satin of most exquisite texture. It was bordered witn orange blos- soms und the skirt was draped with honiton duchesse lace, which was designed by the late prince consort for the queen and which was afterwards worn by tho bride’s mother, Princess Christian, just twenty-five years ago. U'he train hung gracefully from under the basque in plain straight folds, its border of white buds and groen giving ita very effective appearance. The bodice was of white satin with sleeves of honiton laco similar to that on the skirt. girdlo of orange blossoms and myrtlo s hanging down in two long ends hid the juncture of the bodice and tho skirt and foll graccfully over tho satin train. As jow- elry the bride wore a necklace of diamonds and pearls, the gift of her parents. The wodding veil was the one worn by Princess Christian upon the occasion of her marriage. The_ bridesmaids were Ladies Emily Cado- gan, Eathward, Mabel Egerton, Esther Gore and'Beatrice Bridgeman. They wore hand- some white satmdressos, draped with —deli- cate white crepe fie chine, and caught up, The bows were of frosted silver. All wore ostrich plumes in their hair and had silver girdies around their waists. ‘Tho bri dal bo- quets were composed of marechal niel roses, The archbishop of Canterbury performed the marriage service, which was most simple, and made only a brief exhortation. The bridegroom’s résponses were given in a firm voice, but those of the bride were indistinet. The 'brido was given away by her father, Prince Christian After the service Mendelssohn's * Wedding March” was played and the ceremony was concluded. Tho marriage register wus later on signed in Windsor castle. A fter luncheon at the castlo the bride and bridegroom left for Cliveden. After the benediction the queen advanced and kissed tho bride. The emperor nsisted upou the same privilege and theu the brido was kissed by all the princesses. The pro- cession was then reformed and returued to the castle, the queen preceding by a privtae carriage 50 85 to be in readiness to receive the couple. Here there was a protty scouo in the grand drawlug room. Al assompled to sign tho reg- ister, the queen's signuture following those of the emperor and empress. On the route to Chivdea, the duke of Westminister's residence, where'the couple will spend the honeymoon, the bride was greeted with the usual showers of rice, satin slippers and flowers. A great banquet at the castle closed the day. ln the evening the queen drove through Windsor to see the decorations. The emperor and empress meanwhile walked to Frogmore louse. A Venetian fote and a dis- play of fireworks were given on the Thames tonight, which was witnessed by the royal guests. MOVEMEN OF THE EMPEROR He Visity ¥ on School and Talks to e Boys.

Avuiasce, O., July 6.—Tho norriblo wreck at Ravenna, O., on Friday morning is still the topic of conversation every yhere. T'he inquest was resumed by Coroner Shorman, but nothing important was learned.

Conductor Boynton is firmly of the opinion that others wero entirely consumed in the tire, and his son, who was the negligent tiagman supposed to have been the cause of the wreck, was ono of the vie- tims, Tbe iuquest may develop some sensa- tional facts in the matter, Those who visited the wreck on Friday morning noticed pieces of burned flesh lying about the ruins too small 1o bo identifiod as belonging to any part of a buman body. The bodies have all beeu taken away excopt that of the nurse girl, who was killed in the sleeper. Her name was Miss Mamie Ken- nan, in the employ of Iguatiud Kugel of Cin- cinnati.
