# THE BUTTE MINER, SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 10, 1904. ## Column 1 # BRILLIANT CHURCH WEDDING One of the most brilliant nuptial events of the winter season occurring in New York city and of especial interest to all Montana was the elaborate wedding yesterday afternoon in St. Thomas church at 4 o'clock, when Miss Gertrude Morris, one of the most charming daughters of Dr. and Mrs. Lewis Rutherford Morris of New York city and granddaughter of Senator W. A. Clark was given in marriage to Mr. Henry Hall Jr., of Boston. The wedding in all the marvelous beauty of exquisite appointments will go down in the social world as one of the winter season's most gorgeous nuptial events. Miss Morris wore a gown of soft white satin and net. About the train was most handsome and was worn on her mother's wedding gown. In the modish creation with a long court train and enveloped in the dainty white tulle veil, a wreath of white orange blossoms, the bride was a picture of rare girlish beauty. Mrs. Rodney Williams, the bride's maid, was richly gowned and carried an exquisite gown of soft lavender chiffon shaded to silver. The bridesmaids were Miss Ethel Clark, Miss Kathryn Clark, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Clark, and Miss Gertrude Collins, Miss Clara Workum, Miss Isabella Wood and Miss Gertrude Ogden, all of New York and classmates of the bride at Miss Spence's school in New York. They wore gowns of shimmery chiffon shading to silver and their hats were of ecrus yellow tulle. Mrs. Morris wore an elegant gown of soft grey satin and georgette, embroidered in silver and carried a bouquet of grey tulle. Mr. Hall's best man was Mr. Henry Hall, Jr., of Boston, a classmate at Harvard. His ushers were Mr. Archie W. A. Clark III, of Los Angeles, Mr. John Thacher of New York, Mr. William Travers Jerome Jr., of Yale, Mr. Van Duner Burton of Philadelphia, Mr. Philip Miller of New York City, Mr. Russell Codman, Jr., of Boston and Mr. William Varker of Philadelphia. Following the ceremony a beautiful service was read by Rev. Dr. Ernest M. Stires and Bishop Henry Cadman New, Bishop Nelson, the presiding bishop of the diocese officiating, and the Rev. Dr. Percy Silver of New York. The inspiring nuptial music began at the procession with the beautiful creation of Mr. Noble, the organist of St. Thomas. A full choir added to the solemnity of the beautiful service. The reception at the palatial home of Senator and Mrs. W. A. Clark followed the wedding ceremony and the wedding party included Mr. and Mrs. Rodney Williams, Mrs. William Andrews Clark and Dr. and Mrs. Lewis Rutherford Morris. x x x ## Spring Colors. True harbingers of spring are to be found in ribbon show cases, where the advent of the new season is heralded by a riot of color that bids farewell to their new names. Any color that pretends to be in the fashionable world demands a new title every season, something interesting, something a bit different. A Polynesian brown turns to bright nasturtium; the fascinating orange is now listed as Tokyo on the color card, undoubtedly a Japanese alliance. You will find among color tables and minerals listed on the card — marimba red, cardinal, Chinese and blackest blue to tenderest pink. Among royal personages also are honored in having their names bestowed upon various colors in the dye pots, and even political excitements. In harmony with its arbitrary spirit, race the labels of temperature reds, golds and greens in their confusion. There is a Cleopatra blue, deep and brilliant; there is a dazzling lavender named Eugenia, a Kate blue-green and a vivid shade called Nile. One of the most edible of the new colors is the appealing banana shade, intensified to almost the coolness of America's favorite breakfast fruit, banana green. These appear in the early exclusive hats with grosgrain ribbon in every shade, with its own narrow sloping brim. Also green in narrow moire ribbons is being chosen for ties and sashes on soft and frilled gowns and Paris heads among the favored. x x x ## From Roundup. Mrs. E. J.

Bruce in N. Y. Commercial took over, as volunteers in addition to their regular work, that duty of service either to individuals or to their community. As broad as the business world itself — that is the field that is the individual banking business. The day of arguing the pros and cons of women working in any department of business life is past. As a matter of fact, it is rather difficult to understand just why such a day should ever have been. The cause of the entrance of women into the labor world is so simple, so natural and so inevitable an evolutionary process, that it is no more on occasion for surprise that in the joining of the man being from childhood to adulthood, there should be a change in activities. What is interesting is that a very great many of the women themselves are only now finding that they are not doing anything so very different, considering all, in a large way, from what they always have done. If you had always heard a great deal about how much more effectively and if equal emphasis and understanding were turned upon the work of homemakers, there would be a clearer public understanding of why the bank is a field for women. What concerns the position of the women at business in the modern world today, is the lack of just such a realization that has placed in a position so very often women in business in the midst of a poorly known, and so beautifully conceived group of thinkers. Just as it is the lack of just such a realization that has placed so in positions often women in business in the minds of some shallow thinkers in a position which has led some to say that the glances are of not all on the grateful. We stand now thinking of not the objectives upon the ground we have covered in the last quarter century in thinking how far ahead we are of where we were. And as all of us and fact in the face: and we are not advancing because of the impetus of sentiment alone. **Stands Is Now Professional.** Broadly speaking, the supreme difference between what women are doing today in what was described in the standard study — women are being placed on a professional basis, and entering on a vocation with the same social responsibilities that woman formerly [continued] ings and home economics are closely bound up together and the logical foundation of the partnership between the two is a woman. ## Fashioned of Ribbons. Evening creations of gauze flowers are fashioned from Creamy velvet ribbon, that delicate pink orchid shade, astonishingly natural looking in their lovely, single petal simplicity. There is a black velvet ribbon inlaid on its satin reverse side with stripes of resaque red, where wide bands and hat bands and streamers, and wonderful big bows. Place-day bows on, with one side fringed, is the trimming on a smart new afternoon. For lingerie bowls and rosettes, the favorites are Canary blue, Navarese Royal green and Tullerose bias. There are a group of ribbon bands destined to be buckled around fashion-ably small fall and winter hats this spring. The black satin ribbon — black, with its lighter companion colors — plays a good part here. Other interesting and musical names in the dashing collection of ribbons to grace the feminine spring wardrobe in succession of their ranges from the right are Yu Chi green, Navaho orange, Louis blue and orchid, a true Inca gold, Cinder gray, Colossea bone, Biche brown, Puma clay and Casino red. Among the small black hats for day wear, there is a perching little tricorne, or that resolves itself into a scart to wind around the neck and cascade down below the waist. A very smart streamlined small hat is of black velvet ribbon, the satin side inlaid with Navaho orange stripes. Considerable pride is being avowed in exhibiting the National Cordray Machinery Commissioner J. W. Barger, where the company first machine ever completed in Australia is being exhibited. All the parts grouped are needs and the American Cordray Electric and Cording Machinery & Manufacturing company, with the first machine ever was machinery which has been installed. It will seek to provide for the consumer's demands and later extend its market to India and South Australia. --- ## Column 6 **When you wash children's hair** be careful what you use. Many soaps prepared for washing hair contain too much alkali, which is very harmful, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo. It is perfectly and entirely granulated. It is inexpensive and beats anything else at all places. Two or three teaspoonfuls is all that is needed. It makes the hair clean with water and rub it in. It makes a thick, rich lather cleanses the hair which cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to manage. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dandruff and leaves the scalp sweet, fresh and healthy. You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at any drug store, and a few ounces will last for months—Adv. --- # WOMEN!
