Not a fairer picture m California is there than this family, mother, father and the sevgn ren, each a dis- tinet type of beauty. At Del Monte, when the Parrotts ap- pear with thelr entouragp of servants and governesses, it i§ distinctly an event. S A Simplicity was the characterizing note of Miss Marie Bull's marriage to Dr. Wal- ter C. Chidester last Wednesday evering, the ceremony taking placé at the home of the bride’s brother, Alpheus Bull, on Jackson street. Miss Kathleen Bull and Dr. Albert Truby, U. 8. A., were the only attendants save two little ribbon bearers, children of Alpheus Bull. Dr. and Mrs. Chidester made only a brief trip from town, as they sailed on yesterday's transport for tbe Philippines. . e The wedding of Miss Beatrice Brom- fleld and Arthur Judd Ryan of New York embraced many beautiful sur- roundings, although the tendency was toward simplicity. The ceremony, which took place in the white and gold room of the sri Francis, was performed by Rev. Mr. Galwcy of S8an Mateo's Epis- copal church. Thre color scheme of pink and white was carried in hydrangeas and greens, the bridesmaids wearing irides- THREE STUNNING YOUNG BRIDES W RIED AN ARMY OFFICER.

A beautiful lace robe.over silk was worn by the bride, the pattern being extremely simple. Mr. and Mrs. Ryan will spend a short time in this State before going to their home in New York. * e e Miss Sarah Cunningham was formal- ly presented at a large tea yesterday afternoon, given by her mother, Mrs. James Cunningham. Several hundred callers greeted the young debutante, who is already a great favorite among the younger set. . s . The wedding of MIss Nana Elizabeth Mighell and Adrian Warren Splivalo | took place quietly last Wednesday at the bride's home in Berkeley, the date having been unannounced until nearly the last moment. Mr. and Mrs. Splivalo went immedi- ately to their own house, near Belmont. the dwelling having been just com- pleted and is beautifully appointed in every detail. Mr. Splivalo {s a well-known devotee of athletic sports and in addition™ to holding medals for many feats was the initial spirit in the introduction of fox hunting at San Mateo. . s The wedding of Miss Jullet Garber and Frank Stringham was a home affair, tak- ing place last Thursday evening at the resldence of the bride's parents, Judge and Mrs. John Garber, in Berkeley. Two hundred guests from both the bay cities witnessed the ceremony performed at 8 o'clock by Rev. Mr. Parsons of the Berkeley First Episcopal Church.) The house was literally filled with flowers— luxuriant in variety and quantity, the controlling motif being pink, which was most harmoniously emphasized by a set- ting of autumn coloring. The bride, in white messaline and em- broidered tulle, wore a long tulle veil and carried an artistic bouquet of orange blossoms and lilies of the valley. The maid of honor, Miss Julita Canavan, was gowned in pink. Three little folks, Miss Helen, John and James Palache, were members of the bridal train, George ‘Whipple standing with the groom. Even with so large a guest list, the affair was most homelike and the recep- tion following was of delightful infor- mality. Mrs. and Mrs. Stringham will spend several weeks out of town, upon their return to reside in Berkeley, s . The wedding of Miss Edith Downing and Captain Benjamin Jones Edger on Tuesday evening was fully surrounded by the military atmosphere, the ceremony taking place in Grace Church. ¥} Attended by a bridal suite of ' ten, the wedding party was quite imposing. The bride, leaning upon her father's "arm, looked very pretty in her soft robe —— | of chiffon satin, made Watteau fashion, with a long veil flowing to the hem. Miss Bonnie Downing in pale green | chiffon satin gave the only .touch of color, each other attendant being clad in simple white. . From the nave, almost reaching to the altar, was hung a beautiful flag. With this accent of other military features, the wedding proclaimed its status, all the groom’s support having been chosen from among his brother officers. Captain and Mrs. Edger were greeted by a small gatheging of friends after the ceremony at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Orrien Down- ing, on Green street. . . . Mrs. Josiah Rowland Howell enter- tained thirty-six luncheon guests at the Marie Antoinette last Thursday, the af- fair being extremely enjoyable and gathering a congenial group. This is the first large affair given by Mrs. intent is to hostess several smaller af- fairs through the season. . . . Mrs. Frederick Palmer’s bridge party on Thursday was a delightful affair. En- tertaining for two brides-elect—Miss Alice Treanor and Miss Emily Chickering—the afternoon was one bringing much con- genlal pleasure to all.’ | Mrs. Palmer has a choice collection of curios gathered during her residence in India, and from this store she presented prizes—beautiful and unique—causing much admiration. * s . The engagement of Miss Coralie Selby and Thomas Olney, both of Oakland, is @ pleasant piece of news to this city as weil, the young people having acquaint- ance on this side also. Miss Selby is the daughter of the late Prentiss Selby, and well known in Oakland society. Mr. Ol- ney is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Warren Oiney of Prospect avenue, Mr. having been a former Mayor of Oakland. The wedding date s not far away, but has not been definitely named. s s e One of the most elaborate affairs of the week was the bridge party on Tuesday given by Mrs. Willilam J. Dutton and Miss Molile Dutton at the Palace Hotel. friends have offered welcome to Mrs. and Miss Dutton, but Tuesday's list included many whose first oportunity it was to greet the home-comers. The apartments, rich in floral adorn- ment, were filled with bridge players, among whom the winners were lavishly rewarded. Those taking part in the game were: Mus. Ira Pierce, Mrs. Maurice Casey, Mrs. A, 8. Baldwin, Mrs. Emma Butler, Mrs. Emory Winship, Mrs. Henry Foster Dut- ton, mrs.

Last Monday's tea bore appropriate signia as decoration; mingied with lov n- Iy flowers were army i navy flags, while from a chandelier hung cupid above a minjature battleship afloat on a sea of blue gauze. Miss Ursula Stone was the honored guest of the day, but she divided atten- tion with her hostess when the all-tmpor- tant announcement was made. . s w The week opened auspiciously with Mrs. Ernest Albert second large tea in honor of M ys Clark of New York, whose winsome manner is fast increasing her list of friends.
