A Beautiful Ceremony at Brown
Street Churcli, Baltimore.
Vice President llobart and the Mem
ber of the Cabinet Among the
Distinguished Guests.
The most interesting social event In Ca bl
uet circles since the beginning of the pres
ent Administration was the marriage of
Mibs Ida Cathaiine Gary to Mr. Francis
Edward Pygram, which took place yester
day at noon at the Drown Memorial Church,
Baltimore.
The bride is the fifth daughter of Po?t
master General Gary, and the fourth to
wed The other married daughters are
Mrs. Henry James, Mrs. Harold liandolph
and Mis. Eugene Levering, jr. There are
three unmarried daughters, all of whom
were bridesmaids.
The biide is one of the most beautiful
young women in Baltimoie, and Is noted
for her pcisonal charm and the attractive
mannerb that distinguish the Gary family.
Mr. Pegramis a young .solicitor of Balti
more, the sou of Mr. William Pegram, and
a member of the old Virginia family of
that name. He is well known in society
and a member of the Bachelors' Cotillion
Club.
No one was admitted to the church with
out cards of invitation, and all confusion
and crowding was prevented by two men
servants or the Gary household, who stood
at each side of the canopy and received
the cards. Within the church, at the en
trance to the center ai3le, the ushers
asked the names of the guests and es
corted them to the pews, which had been
assigned to them, and which were
numbered and listed. The middle aisle
Avas entirely leserved for the guests, who
were bidden to the breakfast.
Thee hurch was most beautifully decorated
with toweriugpulms, masses of acacia and
graceful clusters of tall annunciation lilies.
While the assemblage was being beated
a musical program was rendered on the
great organ.
The distinguishing feature of the wed
ding was its quiet elegance and absence
of confusion and crowding that so fre
quently obtains in churches. Promptly
at the appointed hour the bridal party
entered the church, preceded by
the Jx ushers, who were Mr. George
P. Tiffany, Mr. Charles E. Dallam, of
Henderson, Ky.; Br. WUUnm Ballzcll, Br.
Jlidge way Trimble, Mr. Frank Trick and
Mr Samuel Llppincott The eight brides
maids, Who walked two and two, were
headed by Miss Liliun Gary and Miss
Madeline Gary, who wore the daintiest of
white taffeta gowns, trimmed with cream
colored n.ousselaine de soie, and broad
sashes of cream-colored satiu ribbon. They
wore Gaiusboiough hats of fancy otaidand
of a pale violet tint, trimmed with white
lilacs and violets and loops of cream-saliu
ribbons. Their bpuquets were of jonquils.
Miss Jessie Gary, aud Mi&5 Florence Bjs
shor, Miss Clara Brown, a cousin or the
groom: Miss Mary Basshor. Miss Maude
Thompson and Miss Keua Trust, the other
bridesmaids, wore gowus of the same ma
terials as those worn by the first two,
but the style or each two was different,
though all were decidedly chic.
The bride, who catered leaning upon the
arm or her father, was gowned in a superb
Parislau creation of heavy white satin,
embroidered with seed pearls and ornament
ed with rare old Brussels lace. The
skirt wjik made with a lull court train,
and the bodice was high necked and had
moHsquetaire sleeves. Brussels lace was
used in trimming the bodice and skirt, ou
which It fell in graceful pauels She also
wore a tulle veil that extended to the
edge of the train and was fastened with a
spray of orange blossoms. Her bouquet
was of half blown- Bride roes, and her
only jewels were the diamonds given her
by her father. As she turned to leave the
altar her -veil was thrown back from her
face.
The bride has always been considered
a strikingly handsome girl, but never
appeared so beautiful as upon this occa
siou. Her tulle veil was caught to the
beautifully arranged coiffure with orange
blossoms, and her bouquet was of lilies or
the valley.
The groom, . with his best man,
Mr. Rodger Brooke Hopkins, awaited
the bride at the altar, where she was con
signed to his keeping. After the impres
sive marriage service had bceu read, and
the nuptial knot tied, the wedding
party passed out of the church to the
strains of the Lohengrin bridal chorus
They Were driven at once to the home of
the Postmaster General, where an ele
gant weddiug breakfast was served to the
distinguished guests Later Mr and Mrs.

which was personally superintended by
Mrs. Gary.

bridal gown of Mrs. Pegram was also worn
by her mother, when she, too, was a bride,
and it has also graced the bridal gowns of
the three other daughters. Mrs. Eugene
Levering, Mrs. Harold rtiulolph, and Mrs.
Henry James, all or whom were present at

JIBS. MeT-KAN" LOST II Kit CAPE.
Hut Slio Haw Ilei'ii Mndo Happy by
JtN Itetiirii.
There was one very happy lady yester
day afternoon at the handsome resilience
of lion. John I McLean on I street. It
was Mrs. McLean, and the cause or her
Cepecial joy was the letuin or her $1,0Q0
cape, which she lost the day before.
Tuesday afternoon Mrs. McLean was out
calling, and one of her visits was made at
the Hotel Niiriuiuidte It was there that
the h:indome garment was lost, but it
was not "missed until .Mrs McLean reached
home, and it was supposed that the cape
tiad fallen from her carriage. A care
ful search aud inquiry over the route she
had taken, failed to discover the missing
wrap, and the loss was reported to In
spector Hollinberger, and ho was in
structed to offer a mwaid or $20 for
Its return.
The garment xvas, however, in snre and
honest hands, even though it had been
worth ten times a thousand dollars. The
engineer at the Normaudie had found it at
the hotel, aud, after making diligent In
quiry as toits owner and finding no claim
ant, concluded to hold it until the proper
person should come forward.
The loss was quite extensively adver
tised, for Mrs McLean prized the cape
very highly, and yesterday morning the
engineer took the imich-sought-for wrap
to police headquarters, and received the
proffered cash It is also said that Mr--.
McLean paid him an additional reward
when she secured the cape.
It was purchased in Germany by its
owner when she was recently abroad, and
was a very expensive garment.
1'OSTMASTEH VVILLKTTVS TERM.
Hi; "Will Probably Be Allowed to
Stay to the End.
There is little likelihood that Post
master Willett, of the Washington post
office, will bo disturbed by the present
Administration till the conclusion of his
term, December 11, 1S!3. This gives him
still a year and a half to serve.
The officials at the department with
whom The Times man talked jesterday,
and who ought to know all aliout the case,
think well or Mr. Willett as postmaster,
and say that his conduct or the office
has been above criticism, and that there
is no disposition to make a change of post
master till the expiration or Mr. Willctt's
term.

"Chinnnie Fadtlen" comes back to Wash
ington next week, at Lhe National Theater,
after having sincelts last appearance here
.been presented in -all the larger cities of
the country, with, It is said, more than
ordinary success. Charles Hopper, who
created the title role, will again be seen
as the ingenious aud agile (Jhimmie. On
his former visit lie left a strong and agree
able impression, and will no doubt bo
warmly welcomed again in Washington.
He is supported by the same company that
was with him on his previous visit, and
all the .special scenery and elfects which
were shown hero will again be exhibited.
Those of our theatergoers who saw this
excellent organization and this clever play
will be glad to know that it Is to repeat
ts visit here. Mr. Hoppur's supporting
company still includes those sterling art
ists, Mario Bates, Fanny Deiiham-Kouse,
Beth Frauklyn, Bcrnice Wheeler, Irene
Viaucourt, George Nash, John Flood, Will

aud Barney Reynolds.
"The Prisoner or Zenda," which was the
theatrical sensation herelast season, when
pcrsenled for the rirst time at the National
Theater, returns to this city with honors
well won durlngthe recent tour of thecoun
try, and will be presented next Monday at
the Columbia. The story of the play,
which is familiar to the many admirers of
Anthony Hope, is of the most absorbing
interest, replete with romantic situations,
through which runs a vein of brilliant
comedy. The dramatization presents intact
the charming tale of love, hate and in
trigue which the genius ot Hope has given,
made doubly attractive by the animated
pictures made possible by the talented
cotnpauy, characteristic of -Mr .Daniel Froh
uiaii, whose standard It bears. Thccastis
headed by Isabel Irving and Howard Gould,
and Includes many of the original Lyceum
Compnuy, besides John Flndlay, a great

Sousa comes fpr a single concert at the
Lafayette next -Jiunduy night. It is a
pleasure to be able, to announce that the
general desire to hear as many or Sousa's
own popular marches as possible at his con
certs here will again be gratified. Sousa's
success and popularity are doubtless as
much due to his musical compositions as to
his ability as a leader aud musician. He
is as widely known in this country through
his I rrcsistlblo -marches as for his magne
tism as a leader. -And Sousa leads one of
the finest bands in the world. Mr.
Sousa claims that every occupant of a
seat in his organization Is a musician or
uncommon skill, aud thoroughly worthy
or the company he Is in, which adds to
the pleasure of enjoying such delightful
music. All Sousa's men are models of de
votion to and admiration for their leader.
Next week brings to the Academy Hoyt's
famous comedy. "A Texas Steer," which
will be presented by what is promised as
the best company ever seen In the play.
"A Texas Steer" was played nearly four
hundred nights In New York city, and the
ovation it received at the last per
formance must have been very flatter
ing to the great plnyrlght. There were
wagon loads of flowers, and Mr. Hoyt
was forced to make a speech, in which
he stated that the clever satire on pres
ent day politics had proven the greatest
of any of the many pieces he had writ
ten. Summer prices are prevailing at the
house and the patrons are apppreciative.
"Jim, the Penman" will be the attraction
at the Grand Opera House next week. It
has been said by the press in all cities
whcrethefnmousdrnma,"Jim,thePenmnn"
has been presented this season on its tour
of revival, that the play Is identically
thesame that won over respect andstamped
itself indelibly on our minds, and the com
pany presenting' it in every respect equal
to the original. It includes Harrison J.
Wolfe, and Marie Edith Rice, Mr. Wolfe
Is well known to the Washington theater
goers; Miss Bice is a newcomer, but her
debut iii Washington promises to cieate
a sensation, as she Is beyond question
one of the cleverest artists before the
public, and with a face as fair as the cloud
less sky.
Miss Flora Staniford and her company
come to the Bijou next week, presenting
"A Soldier's Sweetheart," written by
Miss Stanlrord. The play will bo well
rendered by a good company, while the
work of Miss Staniford and Mr. Hollings
hcad is spoken of as particularly elective.
Mr. McDonald jasj Teddy O'Mally, and
Miss Emma Myrklg, the charming little
comedienne, in,, her catchy songs, will
delight the audience. The specialties in
troduced by Miss.Myrkle and Mr Harder,
by air. McDonald and other members, are
very cleer, and, are everywhere received
with evidence 'of well-merited apprecia
tion. , j
An old fnvorte organization, ;he Rentz
Santlcy Burlesque 'Company, replete with
new features ofjnt,crest. comes to the Ly

Two years ago, R. J. Warren, a druggist

supply ot Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
He sums up the Tesult as follows: "At
that time the goods were unknown in this

Rev. A. T), Smith, the head of the
Christian Alliance, which has met In con
vention at the Eastern I'rejjhyterjan Churcli,
corner of Sixth and C streets northeast,
for tlio pas.t two days, addressed tjiu tes-
slon yesterday afternoon.
Dr. Simpson took as his text "The Cap
turoof the Jcbusltes bythe Jews," and com
pared that to the taking of the soul by,
the Holy Ghost.
lie was followed by Rev. Dr. Gabelein,
who was formerly a Methodist pastor, but
who gave up Ills pulpit to devote himself
to the conversion ot the Jews. Dr. Gabe
lein said tliat all the signs or the times
point to the second coming of the Messiah
in the near future. Before nisiulvenc, how
ever, the speaker continued, the Jews will
recognize him, and will again lead the
nations of the world to Him.
In the evening session Dr. Simpson
again addressed the convention. Rev. Dean
Peck followed him with a spirited appeal
for funds to carry on the work of evange
lization in foreiga fields. A collection was
then taken which resulted in a subscription
of over $1,000, to be paid during the en
suing year.
The Christian Alliance Evangelists leave
for Baltimore, where they are to conduct
another convention, tomorrow morning, but
they will return to this city next Wednes
day, to form a branch of the Alliance here.

People Witnessed the Gnme.
The first regular day's play of the
Washington Golf Club commenced yes
terday morning ou the links at Arling
ton Heights.
Notwithstanding the occasional show
ers, the weather conditions were con
ducive to good play. There was little if
any wind, and the "Scotch mist" which
prevailed, was accounted just the thing
by the experts, as it enabled them to
Judge distances much better. The links
were in splendid condition, and the put
ing greens were about as near perfect usit
is possible to get them. The consolation
matches which were played during the
morning, furnished some excellent sport,
but the threatening weather prevented
the attendance of many spectators.
The interest with which society regards
golf was fully evidenced by the number of
spectator on thelinksduringthcuftcruoDn.
A large number of ladles were present,
and their gay attire, combined with the
scarlet coats of the golfers rurnislied plenty
of color aud animation to the scenes on the
links.
The playing throughout the day was of
the very highest order, especially among
the eight who qualified in the trials of
Tuesday.
A feature of preculiar Interest was the
playing of the BIddle brothers, of Phila
delphia, against eauh other They are
both experts, and in the drawings they
were unfortunate enough to be pitted
against each other which necessarily
threw out the loser for a chance in the
finals.
The surprise of the day wa the brilliant
play of George Dunn, who defeated Henry
May, the president or the club, by 1 up.
President May was picked as a likely man
Tor the finals, and his dereat by Dunn was
unexpected. May was unfortunate in be
ing stvmed no less than four times during
the match.
A .1. I"arcns played bis uual brilllan

gin of 5 up and 4 to play.
J. W. Lockett earned a most creditable
victory over his opponent, IT. Wylie, de
feating him by the score of 2 up and 1

opponent.
In the first round of the consolation,
Mitchell dereatcd McKee: L. Beach de

man, and installed by Mr. Bissell Into the
office made vacant by the reduction of Mr.
Fowler, has been himself reduced by Gen.
Heath to a $1,400 clerkship, but has not
as yet been assigned to any division.
Mr. Fowler, who ia a Marylander, was
appointed chief clerk in tl.e office of the
First Assistant Postmaster-General on
August 24, 1889, and continued in that
position till May 25, 1894, when he was
reduced to a nine hundred dollar clerk
ship in the division of salaries and al
lowances. One month after his transfer
he was promoted to a $1,000 clerk
ship in the same division. Mr. Fowler,
previous to his appointment as chief clerk,
has held the offices of principal clerk to
the chief clerk ot the First Assistant, and
of chief ot the appointment division.
The change wasnotbroughtaboutbyany
political persuasion. Gen. Heath used to
haunt the department when he was only
a newspaper correspondent. In that way
he came to know Mr. Fowler, wjio has
al ways been the friend of the news worker.
When Heath grew great and came to the
department as the second officer in its
administration he looked for Fowler.
Then he learned the story or his reduction,
and promptly restored him to the old place.
A bunch of roses from the clerks in the
department bloomed yesterday on the desk
of Chief Clerk Fowler.
The salary of. chief clerk is $2,000.

CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATION.
A Patriotic Xeeture by Archbishop
Keane Delivered In Rome.
A Rome letter to the Baltimore Sun
gives an account of a recent lecture in
that city by Archbishop Keane, before a
distinguished audience in the Palestrina
hall. The archbishop talked for over an
hour on the very attractive subject of
Christian civilization.
The chair was occupied, by the Hon. and
JUpHt R,ev. MqiiHJgnor Stqner, archbishop
titular of TrebizQnd. On tho jilatform
jwere teveraj archbishops and prelates,
among them being Motuilgnor Ccsan; Sam-jjut-etti,
archblgljop of Corinth; Monsig
uor Stanley; Monsignor D. J. O'Coimell,
domestic prelate of Wa holiness, late
rector of the American College; Very Rev.
Dr. W II. O'Coimell, present rector of
the same, and several others.
The lecture of Archbishop Keane was
-so wide in its reach, so attractive In the
examples quoted, so convincing iq the as
sertion of the principles underlying the
structure ot real civilization that it was
a great intellectual delight to hear and
grasp.
In respect of what had preceded its
composition it had a certain resemblance
to the great work of Austin Caxton, which
BulwerLytton describes in hlsnovelof "The
Cnxlons." Its design was 0 immense, and
toward its execution a learning so vast and
various had administered that it appeared
as opening new vistas of thought and
imagination for Its hearers to contemplate.
Beginning with that splendid example ot
early civilization, presented by Greece five
ceuturies before the Christian era, the
lecturer drew a brilliant picture or that
halcyon time, when literature, poetry and
the arts all flourished iu a degree and
with a perfection such as has never been
attained in any nation before or since.
It was with evident knowledge and with
keen sympathy with what was meritorious
In this civilization that Archbishop Keane
dwelt on it lovingly. But he did not hesi
tate to point out the weaknesses and the
enors whioh it had within It, and which
were dinned Into the ears of the Athe
nians by Socrates until, in their indigna
tion and impatience of his reproaches,
they doomed him to death in older to bi
lence him. making him a martyr to pa
triotism and the well-being of his country.
But it was In his exposition ot the prin
ciples of Christian civilization that his ad
mirable method was displayed. Regarding
as the basis of this new message to thena
tions. the Christian principles ot love of
God and Jove or one's neighbor, he traced
the several attempts or men to make these
principles the rule of conduct, and the more
numerous attempts to wrench these prin
ciples to personal aggrandizement in its
variousonus and under its many pleas.
In reviewing the excesses and limita
tions committed by men, especially by
practical application ot principles differ
ent from those of the Christian dispensa
tion, the archbishop was led to make a
rapid review of the prominent evils of so
ciety, flowing from the excesses or ambi
tions Of rulers.
Coming down to the present day, he
showed in a masterly analysis the aims
ot Leo XIH. in his encyclical letters, to
restore the balance of justness and right
between the governed and the governors,
between the employers and the employed,
between capital and labor.
Finding striking examples of tyranny on
the one hand, of liberty degenerating into
license on the other, in the history ot the
various nations of Europe, he came to the
consideration of the principles and alms of
the Constitution of the United-States.
Then, in. a burst ot patriotic eloquence,
he depicted the safeguards that the wisdom
ot the ancients of the nation prepared for
for the due and Just relationships of the
Government and the people, one to the oth
er. He, iu brief but scathing terms terms,
told how when Caesarism sought to estab
lish itself there, the people rose in their
might and said to it: "Caesarism, you go
home!" And, again, when excels of liberal
ism seemed to rush into anarchy, the wis
dom of the nation pulled it up short, and
saved the people from the results of ex
cess. Tho great safeguards made with a view
to maintain the balance of individual right
aud national freedom had made of the
United States a nation founded on princi
ples that come ucarestto the basis of Chris
tian civilization.

HARE IN A DOUBLE BILL.
"A Pnir of Spectacles" nnd a One-i
Act Piece Last Night
John Hare has but three bills in his
repertoire this season. The last ot them
he disclosed to a large audience at tho
Lafayette last night, and the balance ot
the week the repertoire will be repeated.
The program consisted ot "A Tair ot
Spectacles," and "When George Fourth
Was King" precneding It.
The latter was the novelty of the even
ing. It is a one-act play by Francis W.
Moore. The idea is very pretty. Two
weather-beaten old mariners, bachelors
both, loved the same girl, but she married
another before they had the courage to
propose. A little girl, the early-orphaned
otfsprlngot this union, becomes their ward.
But on her twentieth birthday they tell
her she is free to marry, and set them
selves to choosing a husband for her But
like daughter, like mother, she made her
own choice, while they fussed. Mr Moore
who is a London merchant, hasn't mado
anything ot an acting piece. His lines are,
however, good literature, and In the talk
of the two old seadogs he sustains tho
marine figures of speech with a pleasant;
humor.
Gilbert Hare made up well as Joshua,
an 1 Charles Groves read distinctly the lines
ot William. Frank Glllmore was a fine pic
ture as the young lover. Otherwise, the
personations were rather conventional Miss
Oram looked as lackadaisical and acted
with all the sentimentality ot a Maria
Edgeworf h romance. Thesettlngprcsented
a pretty picture.
Of "A Pair of Spectacles'' nothing mora
need be said. It is a cheerful, wholesome
comedy, that one is tetter for having
seen. Mr. Hare plays Benjamin Goldfinch
with appreciation or nil the humor of the
parts, in Mich a way that one is inclined
to look upon it as his best, at least his
most pleasing, performance. "Caste" will
be repeated tonight
