A Notable Wedding.
The wedding of James Smith and Miss Anna McCarthy at the Catholic church Wednesday morning by the Rev. Father Watry was one of the occasions that will long be remembered. Mr. Smith is one of the most popular conductors of the Northern Pacific, the bride being a young lady of high standing and a general favorite among her friends. The event took place at 9 o'clock amidst a large audience which assembled at the church edifice to witness the ceremony. The church was profusely decorated with evergreens and pond lilies, a large arch with a belt suspended from it being erected in front of the altar and was uniiquely constructed. The bridal party was conveyed to the church in closed carriages, and as they ascended the carpeted steps and entered the eifice all eyes were turned toward them. The bride was tastily [sic] dressed in a cream satin and orange blossoms. After the ceremony was over the party was driven to the residence of the bride's parents at the corner of Fifth and Forsyth street and at which place a reception was given in the evening to the friends of the contracting parties. An elegant wedding supper was served and a very pleasant time enjoyed, nothing occurring to mar the pleasure of the occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Smith left on the morning train for a trip east and will be absent a month or six weeks visiting at Ypsilanti, Michigan, and other places of interest, after which they will return to Brainerd which will be their future residence.
Their friends remembered them in a very substantial manner as will be seen by the following list of presents:
