OCIE T Y has
adopted one of
its b u s i est,
brightest,
most worldly
moods. The
gaieties of the
past se v e n
days have been numerous, the
different social functions varying
in magnitude. The cotillion given
Wednesday evening by the Bachelors
at the residence of Mrs. S. L.
Downs, was the private dance on
the programme of the week. The
management of the affair was superb,
the hostess being assisted by
a number of young gentlemen
versed in the requisites of polite
society. Guests were received
with cordiality; dancing followed,
and soon the scene was one of
whirling beauty and grace. The
spacious pavilion, which was devoted
to this pleasure, is finished
with light colorings, has hangings
of cool, shear drapery and furnished
with low divans. Here there
was a sweep of brilliancy from the
electric lights shimmering through
the crystal globes, while the rotary
motion of innumerable electrie
fans added to the pleasure of
the participants, who for several
hours continned the joyous revelry.
Refreshing ices were served
as an interlude to the valse, while
the Renick Brothers furnished acceptable
music for the mirth of
the occasion. The surrounding
lawn is specially suitable for a
summer fete, and proved quite a
popular resort, but just how
many gallants here tempted fate,
Hymen may not reveal. Among
those entertained were Miss Me
Lendon and Mr. Moon, Miss Birdie
Higginson and Mr. J. Weille, Miss
Ora Higginson and Mr. Searcy,
Miss Goodman and Mr. Sanford,
Miss Mistrot and Mr. Plunkett,
Miss P. Burk and Mr. Duncan,
Miss Brusard and Mr. Park, Miss
Sears and Mr. Caruthers, Miss
Johnston and Mr. Nolin, Miss
Goodrich and Mr. Tibbs, Miss
Marshall and Mr. Burnham, Miss
Dickey and Mr. Hawkins, Miss
Olive and Mr. A. Weille, Miss
Pace and Mr. Parrott, Miss Mattie
Jones and Mr. Sears, Miss A.
Burk and Mr. Brown, Miss Trice
and Mr. Wood,Miss White and Mr,
Marshall, Miss Rosa B. Jones and
Mr. Curry, Miss McCulloch and
Mr. Gregg, Miss Whittinghill and
Mr. Cornish, Miss Lacy and Mr.

The engagement of Mr. Charles
Sanger and Miss Flora Livingston
had been tacitly accepted as a fact
among their intimate friends for
some weeks before the wedding.
The rites solemnized at high noon
Thursday at the Temple Rodef
Sholem, were witnessed by a fashionable
assembly. The personnel
of the audieuce and the prominence
of the contracting parties
rendering the occasion notable.
The Jewish ceremony, properly
surrounded by customs distinctive
from those belonging to any other,
was performed by Rabbi E. Meyers.
The wedding was ideal in its
setting and might have been borrowed
from chivalrous song or
story or taken from the canvass
of a great old master. The bridal
party occupied a position beneath
the magnificent arch of
ferns and roses, and from the center
of this was suspended the
floral initials S. L. and a basket
lavishly filled with snow white
flowers. Palms were grouped effectively
at the base of the arch
and completed an exquisite piece
de resistance. Miss Emma Beer
presided at the organ. Misses
Womack and Weslow,Mr. Bowden
Hays and Prof. Pollock rendered
Lohrngren’s enchanting bridal
chorus. Messrs. Ashe /''Sanger,
Ike Sanger, W. W. Sanger, Max
Emanuel, relatives of the groom,
were the ushers and preceded the
bridal party, who entered in the
following order: Mr. Sam Sanger,
father of the groom, and Mrs. R.
Livingston, mother of the bride.
The groom with Mrs. Sam Sanger,
and the bride with her father, Mr.
R. Livingston. The bride’s going
away gown was of wood colored
cloth, with raised valours irridescent
dots and was fashioned after
the latest mode with crinolined
skirt and emphasized by the suggestion
of silk in harmonizing
tones, which was shirred into a
soft girdle and finished the bodice.
The hat was of French chip with
innumerable wheat sheaves. A
bridal bouquet completed a toilet
chaste and simple. Miss Livingston’s
unaffected manner attracted
highly favorable comment. She
is not only fair in the mould and
tissue of beauty, but equally in the
gentle quality of her lineage. She
was reared in Bloomington, Illinois,
and her ancestors are noted
for their wealth and prominence.
Mr. Sanger is highly respected by
those who known him in a business
and social way. And he has
hundreds of friends in Waco who
wish them a bright and happy career
in the future that follows the
consumation of their nuptials.
The Sanger mansion on Columbus
street is handsome in arrangement,
decorations and furnishing
and the suite of beautiful rooms
with the charming effects in light
colors and delicate draperies was
a lovely place for the brief informal
wedding reception. Mr.
and Mrs. Sanger will be absent in
Eastern cities and Northern resorts
during the months of May
and June.
