anil Mrs. John l.iud?a.v. to witness (lit1
marriage of .thoiy eldest daughter, ,l<au,
to Mr. II. K. Mai lot I of Itoston, M?ss,
It was aii occasion of d<vp interest -to.
ever.*' one present. not only op lu'emint
of thi? popularity of Mr.u ml Mpi, Lind
say, who uiv held ill Mii-h high esteem
iii their community, but hccuuso of the
heartfelt interest each and everyono felt
in the welfare their ciuirmiiig daugh
ter who holds such a high place in the
affections of th*? people of Camden. She
hod the gift of making ami keeping
friends in a high degree, and was also
possessed iu a marked degree of that
indetiuable quality "charm" which iiu
mediately? drew people to her, so her
friends and admirers were many, not
only In her o\yn home town, hut in
Columbia where she spent her college
day* and iu neighboring towns. In the
tourist colony of Camden, nIic had many
friend* and admirer*.
Although she I Mi* married a man from
north of "Mason and Dixon Line", she
will fortunately still make her home in
Caindcu. as Mr. llallett cast his lot
amongst us some time ago, us manager
of the Wuteree Cotton Mill. They will
occupy a charming bungalow >>n an
elevation near the mill village, which
has been most attractively furnished
for them by the groom's parepts.
1'ivccding I lie wedding ceremony, (here
were delightful selections rendered .on
the otftan by Miss Alberta Team, nnd
the audience was charmed by the singing
of "Beloved it is Marti" by Mrs. Ernest
Zemp.
, The Church was Decoralcd in green
and white, ,, lilies bedecking choir stall,
pulpit and tJ>e arch, under which the
bride and groom stood and it made a
lovely picture, as the bride ami her four
attractive tnaidH and maid of, honor, were
grouped in front of this green and white
background. The brides gown wan of
Duchess satin with an imported luce
overdress of rose point-lace. A court
train fell from the shoulders and the
lfrng veil was caught by a coronet of
orunge blossoms, % -
The dress worn by the maid of honor,
Miss Naucy Lindsay, was of mist green
tulle over sliver cloth with silver laee
trimming. Flowers Killarney roses. The
brides maids- were Mioses Bland Williams,
Rhctta DeLoaebe. Kthel Yates and Vir
ginia Taylor. They were gowned in white
tulto over satin and carried Killarney
roses, tied with pink inaliue.
The ushers were Messrs. Tom Ancrum,
Nettles Lindsay, John de Loach, of Cam
den and Marvin Riddle of New Jersey. |
The best man was Mr. Bverett of Bos
ton. Mass. The grooms gifts to the
best man and ushers were belts, with
silver monogrammed buckles. The bride
presented her maids with orescent pins.
The wadding ceremony was performed
by I)r. William Lindsay, an uncle of
the bride, of Charlotte, N, C.
The reception at the Lindsay's hand
some home, was largely attended and
it was most attractive in its gala decor
ation of Southern smllnx and the flowers
that bloom in -June. Each room had
its color scheme and nothing could have
exceeded, the daiuty simplicity, of the
decoration of the dinig room and brides
table which had a handsome lace cover,
and was draped from the chandelier with
ftjniy_tnlic. - In. the center was a great
silver urn, tilled with long-stemmed
Hhaster daisies, wreath of the same, en
circling each law* mat, on which were
placed 'the beailtifully iced cakes. The
crowning artistic touch of this table
was the brides cake, so elaborately and
exquisitely- embossed that it. could not
have been excelled by the most skilled
chef. It was the handiwork of one of
the bride's friends, and proved her to
be yh artist, in 'the line.
One room was devoted to the display
of the bridal presents and they were be
wildering in variety and beauty. In its
store the bftd? will, find no lack of any
thing ornamental or useful to lit up
her. new home. ?
The. punch bow-Is were presided over
by Mrs. Ira B. Jones, of Lancaster;
Mrs; Stroecker #f Charleston ; Miss

1 fks time Saturday afternoon at d :Hd.
Tho punctuality of the natural phe
nomenon caused wome astonishment .
It. sceqps that the impression. was
abroad that the octtpae like trains and
clivuaea -would ho late about starting.
Incidentally the ro?p<K>t for the math
ematicians who calculated the occur
rence has been greatly increased by
the promptness of the moon In getting
a Mace in tho Aun. The shadow grad
ually lncroalilicd , til 7:30 \tfbeu the ;
greatest ainottnt* of the sun's surface
was covered. While It was hardly as
"dark as many expected, electric lights ?
had to bo turned on to aid Old Sol In
most of the stores. About 7 :30 the
shadow gradually diminished till about
X :.*tO when tho sun was again allowed
to reign supreme.
Gil every street corner crowds col
ic* -t?Hl to watch tfte event. Tbe ecltpso
of .Saturday called to mlud the famous '
"?lark day" of May 2li, 1000, when
chickens weal to roos ami the stars

Otjhers thought It a highly interesting
One little negro after peer

? As it gradually grow darker many
IM'ople from out <rf town, forgetting the ?
