Details of the Brilliant Wedding In Classic Boston—The Bridal Gown of the Happy Girl Who Married an Untitled American. Boston, June 11.—A wedding cere— mony, the character of which placed it in rank as the grandest this city has ever seen, was that wher- by Mr. Larz Anderson, until very. rfiutly member of the United States diplomatic corps at Rome, and Miss Isabelle Perkins of this city, heiress to $17,000,000, became husband and wife. The bride is the daughter of Captain George Hamilton Perkins, U. S. N., re- tired, and a granddaughter of the late William F. Weld of this city, whose millions she inherits together with her cousin, Mrs. Charles F. Sprague, the wife of Congressman Sprague of Massa— chusetts. well known Washington family, the head of which, General Nicholas Ander- son, died abroad a few years ago. He is a. Harvard graduate, and was asso- IVIRS. LARZ ANDERSON. elated with Hon. Robert T. Lincoln in the United States embassy at London and later was first secretary of the le— gation in Italy under Hon. Wayne Mac- Veagh. . The ceremony was performed by Rev. John Cuckson in the Arlington street church at noon, and among those who were present as the guests were some of the most wealthy and prominent members of society in nearly every large city of the United States. The historic auditorium, with its an- cient pillars and box pews, under the skilled hands of florists and designers of highest repute, presented a most beautiful appearance. Potted plants, majestic ferns and massive banks of cut flowers of every description were used in profusion. The Great Bridal Bell. The bridal bell was one of the largest, if not the largest, ever constructed in Boston. It was composed of hundreds of bride roses, fringed with lilies of the valley and small white buds. It was suspended from the ceiling by strands of broad white satin sash rib- bon. wound with asparagus and bomousa vine, and great ropes of long stemmed roses, trained on asparagus vines, were suspended between the pillars and across the altar in endless profusion and with great heaps of roses made the front of the church resemble a dense garden. When the hour for the performance of the ceremony arrived, the organ broke into strains of Mendelssohn’sWed- ding March, and the bridal party enter- ed. Preceded by ushers and brides- maids and the maid of horror, Miss Elizabeth Anderson, sister of the groom, Miss Perkins proceeded to the altar, leaning upon the arm of her father. Two lads dressed as sixteenth century pages followed the bride as train bearers. As the bride neared the head of the broad center aisle, Mr. Anderson, who was ac- companied by Charles Francis Adams second as best man, advanced and meet- ing Miss Perkins beneath the floral belt, they stood together before the clergy— man. The Wedding Breakfast. Immediately after the ceremony the bridal party proceeded to the Perkins home, on Commonwealth avenue, where the wedding breakfast was served upon a. temporary balcony which has been built in the rear of the mansion. If the decorations in the church were beautiful, those at the house were sur- passingly so. All that could be accom- plished with flowersharranged by most artistic taste, seerried to have been done. The bay windows were banked and garlanded with growing plants and festoons of pink and white roses. Around the rooms were draped beau- tiful tapestries from corner to corner, and their folds were filled with roses thrown with all the seeming careless- ness of art and left as they had chanced to fall. From the center of the walls of the main rooms ropes of long stem- med roses attached to asparagus vines radiated to the ceilings. The candelabra supported pendent pouc‘hes of white silk filled with bridal roses till the ef- fect of bursting was produced. The banisters and balustrades were inter- twined with white ribbons and strings of roses and lilies of the valley, and the reception rooms up stairs were equally embowered. The Bridal Gown. In the great drawing room were the tables holding the great number of presents. The breakfast tables in point of floral decorations were most simple. Tall, slender vases fashioned like aGreek lecythis held long stemmed roses, and lilies of the valley were heaped in shal- low vessels. After the breakfast the couple de- parted for New York en route for Eu- rope and the far east. The brides— maids were Miss Eleanor Gray, Miss Susan Dalton, Miss Theodore Knight and Miss Bessie Seabury. The gowns of the bride and the bridesmaids were the exquisite creations of Worth, Dou- cet and Faxon. The bride’s gown was composed of heavy cream satin lined throughout with taffeta silk. The seams were optlined from waist to hem with orange blossoms and the corsage had a surplice effect, with fluffy trim- mings of tulle. One very important feature of the i. marriage that will serve to keep it fresh in the minds of all Americans is the fact that the young bride is a thorough American herself and is not marrying a foreigner.

One that stays a while with you. It woa’t leave even after you have abused it to your heart’s content. You have to eject it, break it up. or scatter it; Goose grease freely rubbed in has been known to do the trick. Well, after you have gotten it there is no reason why you should not contract a second in a month or perhaps in a year. Frail humanity is no more cold—proof than buttel proof. It is so with other ailments of the body. Take the kidneys. They go wrong and raise an internal row. They often right themselves like the liver, without using any medicine, but as a rule kidney troubles stay awhile. Then linger on and recur semi-annually or periodically and as the victim ages he is crippled in the back—twisted and contorted out of shape and is a regular hotbed of pains and aches. If you have anything wrong with your kidneysfollowthe planadopted by G. S. Partrick of 127 Main street, Notary Public, who says: “ Mrs. Par- trick had a severe attack of backache. Just at the time we both noticed an an— nouncement about Doan’s Kidney Pills and came to the conclusion if they only carried out half what they promised, they would remove the trouble. My wife got a box at Glendenning’s drug store and took them. They gave her relief. We can recommend the prep- aration. 7’ Dean’s Kidney Pills are for sale by all dealers. price 50 cents per box, 6 boxes for $2.50. Sent by mail 011 receipt of price. Foster-Milburn (30., Buffalo, N.

H., June 11.—A serious freight wreck occurred on the western division of the Boston and Maine rail- road near here. Train No. 600, known as the Portland and Bcszon through night freight, ran into- a washout at Fernald’s culvert. The locomotive and seven cars were demolished, and three men were killed. They were: Charles lankin, engineer; A. C. Young, brake- man, and Albert Chandler, brakeman, all of Portland. Daniel King, the fireman, was badly burned and was otherwise injured in the wreck. He will probably. recover. The train was a heavy one, consisting of 20 cars, and was about half an-hour behind time. It was speeding along at a. good rate, and the engineer apparent- ly had no warning of the washout ahead. , The locomotive left the rails, which for a distance of 20 feet had been un- dermined by the swollen stream be- neath the culvert, and with seven heav- ily laden freight cars went over a 40 foot embankment. The engine and cars and contents of the latter were practi- cally ruined. The engineer and the two brakcmen, who were on the front por- tion of the train, were dead when found some time later. They had no chance to jump, and were caught in the wreck- age. The fireman, Daniel King, went down nearly the entire distance with the engine, and was badly burned and scalded. GENERAL COX DECLINES. He Is Unwilling to Assume the Respon- sibilities of the Spanish Mission. Cincinnati, June 11.—A Commercial Tribune reporter saw General Jacob D. Cox and asked him, “Are you going to accept the offer of appointment as minister from the United States to Spain?” General Cox answered promptly, “I am not." He said that he had received no official notice of this offer, but had been semioflicially informed that it would be made if he desired the place. Through this intermediary he had thanked President McKinley for the compliment and given his reasons for declining. His principal reasons are that he has for several years been engaged in lit- erary work that will take some years to complete, and he cannot afford to abandon it. Furthermore, the position offered imposes great responsibilities and labor at this time. General Cox has been offered a professorship in the law department of Cincinnati univer— sity, which he will decline for the same reasons. Bodies of Two Students Recovered. Newton, Pa., June 1].—The bodies of John Fox and Alfred TVatson, the two students of George‘s school, near here, who were drowned in Neshaminy creek, were recovered.
