Cannon at the Methodist Church can say that never has a fairer sight been looked upon, nor a happier scene presented than mrked this event in the two young livu-. It was a beautiful and Impressive ceremony performed by Rev. C. W. Creightcn, assisted by Rev. A. Jackson Bowers. The immense crowd that gathered In the sacred edifice showed in what estimation the popular young Couple is held. At half after eight o'clock the famil iar strains of the Wedding March, with Mrs. S. 13. Jones at the organ, an nounced the arrival of the contracting parties and their attendants. The decorations were arranged in a tasteful and attractive manner-the trailing vines and graceful ferns formed a perfect bower, and made a setting for the pure white beauty of the numerous roe that adorned the chancel. The brilliant lights shining amidst the ilowers enh.mced the beauty of the The bridal party entered in the fol lowing order: The little ribbon girls, Misses Sara Housoal and Mary Day Wright came first, followed by the ushers, Messrs. F. L. Bynunm and iR. A. Carlisle. Immediately after camne Misses Morlat Martin and D)aisy Can non dlowni the left aIsle, Messrs. Has kell Wrigh t. and J1. C.

Mayes. The maid of honor, Miss Mamie Wright ent.ered at the left aisle, followed by the bride with her brother, Mr. Z. F. Wright, while the groom with the best man, Mr. WN. 0. Mayos, came down the right aisle. The grouping of the bri dlal p)arty ariounid the altar was quite picturesque and unique. The bridesmaids were gowned alter nately in green and white organdies and carried shower bouquets of Paul neron roses. The maid of honor was clad in pure white organdy and her bouquet was of white roses. The brlde's costume was of heavy white tatfeta, marked by it,s elegance and simlplicit.y; her veil was gracefully caught back with a spray of orange blossoms.

MYSTERED INTO BERVIOE. The Newberry Boys Mustered Into Regular Servioe-Oompani B First Regiment SouthGaro linaVolunteers U. S. A. The Newberry Guards have succeeded In recruiting their company to the re quired number and on Wednesday evening wore mustered into the regular service of the United States Ainy. The company is composed of 82 men and the official roll will be published in Tuesday's paper. The following complimentary notice of the Newberry boys is taken from the Columbia Register of yesterday: "When the Newberry company wai drawn up in the pine grove that sur rounds Col. Alston's tent last afternoon to take the obligation, it was seen that nearly every man was on the sunny side of thirty, and a finer body of young fellows never faced a mustering ollicer. In the ranks were represented all the avocations of life-excBpt that one of peace-the ministry. These men have made many sacrifices to the call of duty, and their patriotism must go vn questioned. They have left pleasant homes and relatives for the precarioue living of the tented fields, caresoos for hard knocks and possibly worse. Cap tain Langford and his oflicers have worked earnestly to furnish the gov ernment an entire company. Thoir original command was rent almost in twain by the-rigid medical examina tions. Undismayed these young gon tlemon went to work with redoubled interest; obstacles only served to in crease their zeal, and as a result of un tiring effort, directed by intelligence, one of the commands that suffered most had the honor of being the second mus tered into the service of the United States. "The mustering was done by Captain Ezra Fuller of the Seventh United States Cavalry. The roll was verified by the actual presence of the men. The two lines of recruits ware counted and Qaptain Fuller rtipped uut in front, removed his hat and gave final In struction. Then this voteran-who had possibly seen thousands of men sworn into the regular service-in a voice that sounded strangely sole nn in comparison to his usual cheery tones, administered the oaths to the men who stood uncovered with their right hands raiBed to God. The scene was impressive and instructive, every by-stander forgot curiosity for the mo ment and lifted their hats also. "The company was then marched back to quarters and there recei ved the cheers and congratulations of those who are now their comrades in arms, and those who soon expect to be. While this reception-if it might so be called --was in progress it occurred to some of the men that a few speeches might not be out of order. Accordingly they began calling for favorities. Mr. Cole Blease, Capt Langford and Gen. J, Gary Watts eacb responded in happy style to the call of the men." A Narrow Escape. Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada E. Hart, of Groton, 8.

A boy 13 or 1.i yeers of age cane to the rescue of his younger brothers and sisters with a stick and boldly defeided thenm. The dog turned his attention to the boy and sav agesl attacked hit.

Those who had looked forward with pleasure to the coniing of the Mission aries, Rev. and Airs. Scherer, were not dis pointed. At the 4 o'clock service the church was full and Airs. Scherer carried her hearers on the wings of imagination to that far oft land of the rising sun, and its customs andt habits and i' peculiar people who adapt themselves so easily to our western civilization, but who do not accept our religion. She told of the work there, its many disadvantages and its pleasures and the Sowing now and the reaping which shall conie by and by, for the Master has pronised that his word shall not return unto Itim void. Mrs. Scherer captivated her audience and mnanly forgot the hardships of the mis sionay's life under the cli. of her voice and the story of love for human souls that fell so eloquently from her lips. At the night service over which Miss L,illian I,uther presided the church was full and listened with rapt attention to Rev.
