NO SUMMER SIGH IX THIS.
ADMIRAL PORTSR'3 daughter fi
nally MARRIED.
The Wedding’ a Swell Affair in a Fash
ionable Church, But No Member of
Her Family Present—A Gentleman
Friend Gave Her Away—The Invita
tions in Her Mother-In-Law's Name.
Washington, Doc. 13.—The Church of
the Ascension was thronced at $ o'clock to
night upon the occasion of the raarri;e of
Miss Elena Porter, youngest daughter of
Admiral David Porter, U. S. N., to Charles
H. Campbell. Cards of admission were re
quired to be presented a: the door, but this
did not prevent a crowd from collecting on
the sidewalk outside the church, as this
marriage u the happy culmination of an
engagement of ten or twelve years, in the
course of which the fate of the lovers had
been far from enviable.
A CRUSTY PARENT.
The fact is an open secret that the
admiral, until within a few months since,
has been so violently opposed to tae match
that Mr. Campbell finally, in seif-respect,
was obliged to discontinue his visits to the
house, ai.d met his tia .ca every afternoon
at the residence of his mother, from
which they would go for a long
walk or in the season would make
the round of calls together. Last summer,
upon Admiral Porter’s convalescence from
his severe illness, he called his daughter to
him and announced the fact that he than
ar.d there formally withdrew all opposition
to her pros; ective marriage.
BOWED TO MAMMON.
That Mr. Campbell a short while pre
vious inherited a small fortune from his
uncle was donbtleas a powerful lever to
waid the removal of that opposition from
the admiral, who did not hesitate to say he
considered Mr.—Campbell’s salary as
a clerk in the state department insuf
ficient 10 properly support hisd aughter.
Mr. Campbell hastened home from Connec
ticut and immediately began preparations
tor the wedding. When the question of
raaikng out a list of guests was brought up
for discussion, Mrs. Porter, who heretofore
had warmly espoused her daughter’s cause,
suddenly, without the slightest apparent
reason, refused to allow her name or that of
the admiral to appear on the invitations.
ISSUED IN MRS. CAMPBELL’S NAME.
As the subject had by this time been very
generally talked over in society, and the
date of the marriage announced in various
local papers, the matter ended by
the invitations being issued in the
name of Mr. Campbell's mother,
Mr. Archibald Campbell It was then
further decided that the ceremony, instead
of taking place in Bt. John’s church, of
which b-th bride and groom are members,
should be performed at the Ascension,
because of the grea er seating capacity of
the latter church. The interior, w hich has
been newly decorated, presented a very
brilliant appearance to-night as the many
lig its shone down over |th elegantly
dres ed throng of guests and upon the
palms and flowers within the chancel.
ENTERING THE CHURCH.
As the organ sounded the wedding march,
all eyes turned to the doorway, which
opened wide to admit the woddiug party,
for which Kev. Dr. Douglass of St. John’s,
who performed tho ceremony with Rev. Dr.
Elliott, stood waiting at the chancel rßils.
H,£e ushers, who advanced first, were Maj.
and Col. Kellogg, U. S. A., Lieu
Sefridge, Lieut. Cowles and Ensign
Sliddell Rodgers. U. S JJ., Mr. W
bury Lowry, Mr. Clifford Richardsou, Mr.
Hugh Leisure, Mr. Arthur Addison, Mr.
Gaillaril Hunt and Mr. Charles Mac Cally.
These were followed by the bridesmaids,
Miss Nellie Hunt, Miss Elsa McKeek -r, Miss
Lube Soff, Miss Lydia Biddle, Miss Florence
Audenread. Miss Teresa Stoughton, Miss
Jennie Sherill and Miss Kate dyer. The
bridesmaids’ gowns were of white mile,
with low neck bodices of satin,
four of the number wearing pink
sashes and wreaths, and the other
four blue wreaths and sashes. The bride
sto and with Mr. Campbell, la an elegant
gown of ivory while satin with court train,
low neck and short sleeve bodice. The front
drapery of tulle was caught with sprays of
orange blossoms, a cluster of which also
held in place the long tulle veil. The decol
lete bodice was finished with silver passe
menteries and orange blossoms. Lieut.
Archibald Campbell, cousin of the groom,
as nest man.
NONE OK HER FAMILY PRESENT.
Maj. Turnbull, a life-long friend of the
bride and groom, stepped forward at the
appropriate time and gave the hand of the
bride in marriage, there being no member
k j fttruil y present at the ceremony. The
brtae and briiiesmain met at the residence
™ Miss Kate Myer, and together drove
uom there to the church. No reception
loliowed the ceremony, as Mr. Campbell,
sftcr changing hi* dres suit at his
"wn residence, drove to Admiral Porter’s,
where Lis bride in her traveling dress,
ready awaited him. Mr. and Mrs. Camp
■ eli left for the north on a late train, to re
main away until Christmas eve, when they
I'eturn and make their future home
Mrs. Archibald Campbell on Desals
The bride received a large number
j or ver V ©legant presents.

BARROOM BCLI IN COLUM3U3.
Nearly All the New Alderman Keepers
r t t aloone.
Columbus. Ga., Dec. 15 —To-night the
city council convened in regula. svss.on a.d
disposed of its usuai business. The most in
teresting object of the meeting was the
sweeting in of new councilman. All the
newly elected board were ailow.-d to take
their seats for the incoming year except R
8. Grier, formerly of Brunswick, but
recently of tuis city. Mr. Grier had
been elected by the low license
faction over Hon. W. W. Curtis, who
has been councilman for tiio past fifteen
years. The claims brought against Mr.
Grier were that he was a citizen of B uns
w.ck and had not registered for the las: mu
ni-ipal election. Mr. Grier denied ever
having registered in Brunswick, and said
that he had always claimed Columbus
as his h me. Several affidavits were
produced to the effect that he had voted
in Brunswick at all the local ad national
elections. At the suggestion of Alderman
Foley. Mr. Grier made his statement and
seemed to be overwhelmingly em arra s?d.
He sad that he was altogether unacquainted
with tie new city corn er until this after
noon, aa d that he would not contest t. e
r eo ion, and lav all claims to lbs office aside.
At tins juncture Mayor Dozier stated that
-ur. Curtis was the iegal councilman, aud
called upon him to take the oath of office,
whereupon Mr. Curtis resigned, and an
other election was ordered for a councilman
in the Fifth ward. The new aider
men, with one or two excep
tions, ere all owners of barroctm.
This leavei the city to the control of tie
anti-prohibitionists for the next two years.
Ttie whisky men are jubilant over their
success, ad sty that they wi i
make tho l.quor license within
reach of all. Mr. Curtis is a
member of a well kuown wholesale shoe
firm of this c.ty and enjoys the reputation
of having served Columbus faithfully as
one of us ciiy officers. No candidates have
been name.i for toe coming election, but it
can be safely said that the barkeepers will
do all In their power to elect one of their
own men.
