(JrrMt Cnunmrir n Church Npcclnl HIiiIn ICenderPd Hciriitlon mid l'rccnl. When tho hour arrived for tho niarriago of Dr. Charles 13. Cooper and Miss Kate 0. McGrow yestor day ovouing, St. Andrew's Catho. dral was crowded to its utmost re cesses not reserved for ecclesiastic ctil offices. ScoroB of people had to stand and a throng almost en circled the ediGco on the outside, while many of 'hn invited gueste wore constrained to watch tho sccno from afar in their carriages. Tho Bulletin as a rulo oscbews the dangerous ground of suporla tives, but truth compels it to say that, in its existence of fifteen years, it has not had to record quite bo yrent popular interest in a wedding as was displayed on this occasion. Decorations of the chancel and tho front of the uavo wore of re fined tasto and rare beauty, cofi sibling o palm fionda, diversified forns and vines, flowers in bou quota ami masses and insertions, and potted plants, all disposed with effective art. Miss Emily Hnlstead was tho decorative artist in charge of tho work. While tho usbors wore gallantly striving to find seals for many times the number of gucstB there was room for, Wray Taylor, the cathedral' organist, played a wed ding march of Best, a gavotte of his own and an intermezzo of Mas cogni. Punctual in a startling degree for a, Honolulu wedding, the bridal procession appeared at (lie main entrance. It moved up the aisle accompanied by the sing, ing of tho hymn, "How Woloomo Was tho Call," by tho choir of ladies and gontlemen. Tho ushers were in tho van, being Dr. H. V. Murray, Marshal A. M. Brown, Major J. W. Jones and Major Geo. O. Potter. Then carao tho brides maids Misses Adole Widdifield, Pauabi Judd, May Damon and Emily Halstoad. The maid of honor, Miss Qay of Kauai, preceded the bride, who wns supported by her father,Dr. John S. McGrew. As tho procession reached' tho chancel rail, tho well-timed hymn ceased. Dr. Coopor with his best man, Dr. J. H. ltaymond, was in waiting. Mrs. McGrow, mothor of tho bride, sat in tho front pow to the right. Tho more intimate friends of the family had tho two front pews ou oithei sido reserved for them, and the desks of theso pews were clothed with banks of vor duro and variegated bloom. As tho service proceeded, tho organist played a Bweet, low re frain that was taken up, from be hind tho altar, by B. L. Marx on tho violin. Rev. Alex. Mackintosh, maHtorly interpreter of ritual as ho b, never rendered tho loving rito more impressively than now. His heart had especial roason to bo iu tho beautiful sorvico this time, for the brido had boon ono of the most talented mombors of tho choir assist ing in his stated ministrations. "Blessed are nil they that fear tho .Lord" Psalm 128 wos sung by the choir for the progress of the bridal pajty to tho altar. Tho minister concluded his offices with a brief address of congratulation, tho organist meau while softly play ing Sohumon's " Traumeroi." Thou tho parly moved out blow ly to tho vestry for tho signing of tho register, whilo tho choir and organ performed a wedding march and hymn by Warneford a beautiful composition reserved for tho marriages of members of tho choir. Upon roturniug to the body'of the church, tho happily united couplo led tho way down the nislo, followed by tho bridal rotinuo, and the vast congregation molted away liko snow boforo tho breath of spring. Mondolssohn's wedding march saluted tho retir ing stops of thq procession. It was a haudsomo couple, be-1 youd tho conventional acceptation of the term, which tlniB emorged from tho scone of tboir exchange I of sacred vows, to have and to hold, to love and to cherish, till death do them part. The bride I was the cynosure of a thoimnd admiring oyes, smiling happily as . she gaily tripped out, leaning ' unon tho arm of her lifo nnrtnnr. Her dress waB of whito silk piuia over satin on train, trimmed with point d'Alencon, with violet wreath and tulle veil thorefrom to tho ground. Sho carried a bouquot of white carnations. Tho maid of honor was attired in whito organdie trimmed with yellow ribbons, and she carried a basket of coroopsis blossoms. Tho bridesf maida were also iu whito organdie, tho dresses of Missos Widdifield and Judd being trimmod with pink, and thoso of MisseB Damon aud Halstoad with bluo ribbons, all carrying flowerB in harmony. Immediately aftor the ceremony tho bridal party and guests pro ceeded to tho homo of Dr. aud Mrs. McGrow, in Hotel street, whoro a reception was hold. The spacious grounds wore grandly illuminated with row of colored lantorus, mostly with star spangled banner dosigns, festooned from tree to treo and along tho walls of tho mansion, whilo an aic lamp in front and one over tho baud stand iu rear turned night iulo day. Thoro was music from tho Government baud throughout tho reception. A reception bower cburmiugly novel had beou constructed in the rear lanni. It was composed o screons of netting interwoven with peppor treo brandies, decorated with festoonB of white carnations depondiug from the eaves, aud an endless varioty of flowers was arranged on tho Bides. Stephauo tis vinee in bloom adorned tho 'pillars, and palms woll disposed lent grace to tho bower. Within this vory boautiful structure the newly wedded oouple stood, with tho ladies and gentle men of tho bridal party on. either sido. Tho hundreds of guests pressed forward to offer the felici tations of genuino love, friendship and esteem to tho happy pair. It was more than an hour before all presont could mako tho required circuit. For a timo it was a per fect crush. As tho peoplo retired from tho point of reception thoy moved into tho library to view tho wedding presents. Theso formed a truly gorgeoiiH array both iu number and richness. In cut glass alone there was more tbau tho complement of a princely homo. Utensils of silver plato were spread out ou all sides. Oil paintings, handsomo books, ex pensive crockery, household liuon, calabashes of Hawaiian woods, art pottery, etc., were luLLly in oi denco. Docorationa of tho parlor, tho open stairway, tho vostjbulo and tho window openings would for description almost exhaust a florist'B catalogue. Thoy simply presonted to tho oyo an idyll of ono of Honolulu's chief glories its distinction as a city of floral boauly. Among thu articles of adornment in honor of tho brido was a maguificeut Hawaiian flag of silk, with a gold laco fringe and tassels, sent for tho occasion by Hon. John A. Cummins. It was draped at tho end of tho passage leading lb tho library. Among thoso presont wore mem bers of tho Government aud the Judiciary, about all of tho foreign diplomatic and consular repre sentatives, and n vory full ropro seutaliou of the eutiro sorious and social lifo of tho city, togothor with many visitors from tho other islands and abroad. Thoro was nothing stiff or conBtraiuod about tho assembly. Everybody mot many friends thero, and Dr. and Mrs. McGrew, as often boforo, gave most thorough proofs of tho real genius of hospitality. In tho hack neyed phrase, which can hardly bo bettered, "thoy made everybody fool at ho.no." Light refreshments were served throughout tho even ing, tho viands being of tho choic est. t Continued on Jilh Pwje. NATIONAL GUARD ARMORY :oi.()ni.l I'isiii.-rt in in r.woK Ol' IIA1IM1 (INK IIIIII.T. Muni Nut Ciixt I.o I him Tuvntj-lltt- or Thirty llinuvuid Iollar Tin (Vil.ini'I liifrvlcui-il. Hearing that some of thooflicors of tho National Guard had under consideration tbo project of build ing a handsome armory for the uso of tho National Guard a represen tative ot tho Bulletin interview ed him on the matter. "It is perfectly true," said tho Colonel. "Tho matter has ofton been talkod of in tho legimout, both among officer and men, but until lately nothing haB been dono. I will toll you how I fool on the matter and what I proposo to do.. I am going to agitato tho matter of a Nntionnl Guard Armory and keep ou agitating it until wo get it, and I wan't a good ono while wo ore about it, ono that will coBt any way frotn 825,000 to 50,000 aud be a credit to the city. You may think theso figures high but I am certain wo can raise that amount by going at it iu tho right way. Now let mo give you a few facts. "Thoro aro six companies iu the National Guard 1 speak only of the volunteers who give up fifty two ovouings a year for drill and moetings' besides parading ou holidays aud wbonovor called on for battalion drills aud exhibitions. Thoy got nothing for their services beyond $50 per month for oach company, which is a moro nothing compared with their legitimate ox ponses. There is not a company iu tho.wholosix that does not havn to ascoas its members occasionally. it is true tho mon do get a suit of clothes once in a while, which means onco iu three or four years. But they get nothing at all beyond this. Thoy get no privileges or favor from the government in the way of appoiutmcuts to cloikships or work in tho dopartments which aro not shared by tbeSharpshooters or Citizens Guard, and many of tho men claim thoy do uot ovon ro ceive tho sumo conBidoration. But of that I do uot know. What I want to mako plain is that tho Govern tnont is getting tho ser vices of tho volunteor portion of its National Guard at an oxtromo ly low cost, a moro bagatelle, and that tho mombors get compara tively nothing in returu for thoir sorvices. "You reporters know, if tho public does not, of tho difficulty tho captains of tho volunteer companies havo in keeping up thoir membership nud attendance at drills aud meetings. I have mado a study of the mattor and I beliovo tho principal difficulty lies in tho want of,Buitablo surround ings and quarters. You know what the drill ehed is, how leaky ond full of draughts, how baro and dimly lighted it appears even at its best. Now you can't oxpect a man to spend sixty evenings a year iu a place whoro tho Bur roundingB aro not congenial aud ploasaut, and what is more thoy won't do it, and I havo corns to the conclusion that to keep up tho National Guard to its presont standard something must bo dono. Wo cannot allow it to rotrogrado, for tho next Legislature is moro than likoly to out down the mili tary appropriations to such au extent that wo may not bo ablo to maiutain ouo rogular company, let alouo two. I say this is moro than likely because thero are largo numbora of taxpay ers who consider that tho timo has gono by aud tho neces sity has ceased to oxist for regu lar soldiers. Henco, wo should bo moro caroful than ever to koop up our volunteer force. "My proposition is to form tho nucleus of a fund to bo applied to tho erection of a building to bo for tho boIo uso and benefit of tho National Guard of Hawaii. I don't care if this nucleus is only SSOOor $1000, lot us got it started and invested so that it will bo drawing a little intorest. Wo may form this nucleus by inviting don ations from tho community out side of tho National Guard. For tho volunteers thomselvos; I will answer that they will mako a good showing on any subscription that may bo started for tho purpose, j aud X will head such a list at auy time with S100 to start with. Hav ing obtained say tbo first two or three thousand dollars in this way I would havo ouch of the compauies get up a scries of en tertainments aud dances once a month for tho benefit of thu build ing fund. I am sure quite a sum could bo raisod iu this way, for each company would vio with tho other in raising tho most money. Then tho whole regimeut could combine and givo a big ball and raiso another thousand or two, and tho ladies could givo us an othor calico ball and help us out. Thoro aro lots of ways of raising money when you havo threo or four hundred men all working for tho common good, and I am sure all tho men in tho regiment would work like beavers to holp the building along. If wo had ou ly Btarted tbo thing in 18U3 it would havo been a success by this timo." "Why don't you ask tho Govern ment for assistance, Colonel?" asked tho reporter. "Well, that will como aftor ward. Lot us first show tho Gov eminent that wo meau business and intend to raiso tho money. It is part of my plau to ask tho government to set apart a suita ble lot for the building undor conditions similar to thoso on which tho Cbineeo Hospital has boon built that the budding rovert to tho government if it ceasos to bo used for tho purpose specified. Tho govorumeut owns somo lots on Miller street ueur Beietaniu whiob would bo just tho thing, being handy to tho parado ground and drill shed besides being central." "What-sort of a building would you put up." "I would havo it of Hawaiiau stone or stone and briok, of two stories and at least 75x125 feot in sizo. This would givo us room enough on thu lower floor for au armory for ench company, besides lockors for clothing, lavatories, oto. The uppor floor I would divide into a goneral assembly room, library, readiug room, chess, card and billiard rooms. I would also liko to seo u plunge bath about tho building as it would bo vory popu lar with tbo men. I would have ovorytbing about tho building that would servo to attract tbo boys to it and keep tbom away from saloons. I would muko it a sort of club whoro ovorvouo would bo on tho same footing and eaeh euually interested iu its wolfaro. With such a building aud such surroundiugs wo should havo tho very bast young men in town in tho National Guard aud iustoad of having hard work to koop up tho momborship of tho companies wo should havo our pick of num erous applicants and in that way raise the standard of membership, physically, morally aud intellectu ally. "Such a building,' concludod tho Colonol, "could bo put up for an amonut say auywhoro botwoou $25,000 and $-10,000. Being raised by voluntary contributions it would bo under tho direct control of tho government through tho successivo officers of tho National Guard. I am going to try aud havo such a building erected aud shall keop at it if it takos mo tho next ten years. I beliovo tbo boys will all stand in with mo and do thoir Bharo. If they do tho thing may bo considered accomplished." m l'relly WrdtlliiK tUke, Tho wodding cako at tho Coopor McGrew euppor was mado by Horn's bakery.
