A society girl's letter of this week gives
nn accurate description of the premier ovent
of the week, tho .Myers-Nash wedding:
"OMAHA, February Twenty-flrat. Kleanor
Dear: 1 liavo Just returned from tlio Myers
Nash wedding, nnd knowlnft your great love
for gorgeous occasion, I decided to glvo
you tho full benefit of my knowledge whllo
It la fre3h In mind and whllo my spirits nro
bubbling over wljh cnthusliwm; for It was
onu of the most bountiful and elaborate core
mem lc of tho season.
"To start with, you must know Miss Nash
In ono of tho lcant-spolled girls In eoclcty
In Hp I to of tho fact that she has been a
great favorlto ever since her Introduction
into tho social world. The groom was one
of thu typical kind that you read of In
boolt), you know, but oeldom sec. Tall,
with a lino physique, and dark hair with a
sprinkling of gray; now Isn't that romantic?
When I get married tho man must havo
gray hair, even If ho powders It for tho
occasion. It gives a young man a kind
of mysterious air, you know, Just as If ho
luul a history that was worth delvlug into.
"And now that tho preliminaries arc
settled, Imagine tbl.i charming society girl
In her gorgoous wedding robes.
"Long beforo tho appointed time, St.
John's church was thronged with tho beauty
nnd fashion of upper tendom. it was n
-whlto and gold wedding and tho sun shonu
through tho Etalncd glass windows with a
golden Hood of light which was In perfect
harmony with tho Interior colorings of the
edldco (mighty kind of dear old Sol, wasn't
It?). Tho altar was a perfect bower of
Murcchal Nlol roses, while tho myriads of
whlto candies glowed with yellow lights.
Tall palniK with thin, broad, sword-llko
leaves formed a beautiful background for
tho decorations.
"Tho organist played tho softest, Bwcot
rat music, whllo tho ladles In beautiful
reception totlots chatted of their friend who
was bo soon to loavo them. Soon tho
strains of "Faithful und Truo" announced
tho bridal cortege.
"First came tho ushers, Mcsnr8. H. For
tiott, Frank Coatcs, I). Myers of Dubuque,
James Edwards of Notro Dame, Tom Crelgh,
Henry Allen, Fred Nash, Jr., nnd Louis
Nash. (Nobody paid any attention to 'them,
of course, becauso men don't count fit a
wedding.) Then tho four littlo llowcr girls
dainty In frocks of whlto with sashes of
yellow, picture hatx of yellow and great
bunches of Marpch.il NIel roscu. Tho six
bridesmaids followed, looking llko em
bryo brides In soft whlto cllnglug gowns
and short Illusion vcIIh, held In placo by
Jaunty bows of white. They wore no
ornaments nnd carried no ilowers. Then
came Oh, but I forgot tho bridesmaids'
names. They wero: Mm. Joseph Darker
I supposo she was rcully tho matron of
honor Miss Helen Peck, Miss Crclghton,
Miss Myers of Dubuquo, Mlas Doylo of De
troit and Miss Danncmlller of Canton. Tho
maid of honor, Miss Kmlly Myers, followed,
a perfect plcturo in yellow crepo do china.
Ths long, clinging hklrt, trimmed In tho
softest roso plcatlngs of lisso of tho samo
hue. Her Jaunty hut wan a Pariu creation
of yellow, which brought out tho most
ravishing tints of her hair and complexion.
Sho carried an Immense bouquet of yellow
roses.
"Then came the cynosuro of all eyes, tho
brlilo herself, In thn heaviest cream satin.
Tho nklrt fell In a triple boxpleat from tho
waist to tho edgo of tho long, sweoping
train. Tho peplum was bordered with point
laco. Tho bodlco of satin had a yoko effeot
of mil laco, whllo over all fell a magnill
cont veil of point laco which caused a thrill
of admiration through tho wholo audience.
"Tho wedding servlco "was particularly
Interesting becauso of tho distinct responses,
and then It was tho nuptial solemn high
ma&e, which calls for tho most elaborate
musical servlco and nny number of priests
and bishops, assistant priests and candle
bearers.
After tho -wedding ceremony, which lastod
nn hour and n half ; by tho way, that's
tho way to havo a wedding; wo Protestants
havo tho knot tied so quickly that It is no
wonder It comes loose, and tlit'ii wo don't
havo time to catch but n fleeting glimpse of
thn gowns that take so many hours to plan.
Wall, after tho ceremony the bridal party
repaired to tho Nash mansion, which wus
claborato in colorings of yellow and whlto,
whero n banquet was served, "and they
lived happily over after."
If this "llrBt edition" was not alroady
beyond tho prescribed length, Including
postscripts, I would tell you of all the other
happenings of the week, which nro so
numerous that ono would think the wholo
society world expected novcr to come out
of sackcloth and ash,es, and consequently
wero bound to havo all tho fun possibly
' boforo their demise.
Hut Lent will be here In threo days, tUon
I Bhall bo good for forty days. No moro
partloa, no moro theaters, no more dances,
no more eating of tho stuff that dreams are
made of. No moro of anything but Jack.
13vor your loving, MADOK."
