Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Warren Celebrate Their Silver Wedding Anniversary At Their Oklahoma Home. Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Warren were married in Rensselaer June 10, 1885. Last Friday they celebrated their silver wedding anniversary at their present home in Oklahoma City. The Oklahoma City Times has the following account of the event: Conspicuous among the brilliant social events which characterized the earlx summer was the reception with which Mr. and Mrs. John Franklin Warren celebrated the twenty-fifth return of their wedding day at their handsome residence on W. Fourteenth street. The entire house, beautifully decorated and lighted, was thrown open to friends between the hours of 8 and 11, and while the guest list was necessarily limited to more intimate friends, nearly three hundred people called and offered congratulations during that time. Mr. Warren’s prominence in financial and church circles and Mrs. Warren’s wide influence in club, church and society affairs, making their acquaintanceship large and friendly. The house decorations were lavish, the reception hall being artistically treated with a large screen of palms in silvered urps, extending from the piano and veiling a raised dais upon which a string orchestra was seated, which played a varied program during the evening, a couple of vocal solos by Miss Phillips and a whistling solo by Miss Wilcox, giving charming variety. The stair rail was entwined with flowers' and vines, bound with silver cord,, and the window nook on the stair platform was banked with blooms. Mr. and Mrs. Warren received their guests in the drawing room and here only yellow roses were used, a great basket of crystal and gold filled to overflowing with fragrant yellow blossoms, being dependent from the central chandelier and the fire-place and mantel massed,, while curtains of smilax covered the entrances. In the dining room the flower effect was most graceful, silver baskets filled with sweet peas being looped at intervals with silver cord and vines entwined, beneath the plate rail, which was piled with more sweet peas, as was the sideboard and crystal cabinet. The baskets dependent above windows and doors and the dining table, the polished surface bare save for cluny lace pieces, held a great vase of cut crystal, filled with glorious roses. The front and side verandas were canvassed and likewise decorated, furnishing an attractive nook for a punch table, which seemed placed in a rose bower, itself rose-piled.

MANY FRIENDS ENTERTAINED BY FORMER RESIDENTS.

Mr. and Mrs. Warren were assisted in receiving by their daughters, Mrs. Lorenzo M. Farnum and Mrs. Charles H. Phelps, and Mr. Farnum and Mr. Phelps. Mrs. Warren made a charming bride’ of twenty-five years past, being gowned in a most appropriately bride-like gown, all filmy lace and sheer whiteness. Her lovely, snowy hair was piled high in soft "'puffs, dressed with roses and carnations. Mrs. Farnum wore a handsome yellow peau de solre dress, most becoming to her brunette prettiness, and Mrs. Phelps was gowned in a white linen drawn work creation, also most becoming. Assisting in the drawing room were Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Thorne and Mr. and Mrs. 0. F. Wilson and Miss Minnie Punteny; in the hall were Mrs. Rebecca Beatty, Mr. and Mrs. James Chenoweth and Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Henley.

One exquisite offering,

PRETTY WEDDING FOR POPULAR ROCHESTER COUPLE.

Dr. F. P. Bitters and Miss Ira Cones United in Marriage at Informal Reception Wednesday. There was a lovely little wedding at the home of Mrs. C. A. Roberts Wednesday afternoon at three o’clock. The contracting parties were Dr. F. P. Bitters and Mrs.- Ida Cones, of Rochester. A number of old friends of the Doctor had been invited to meet him at that hour. The wedding was quite a surprise, for the supposition was that the Doctor and Mrs. Cones would be married before their arrival here. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. C. Parrett in a very beautiful and impressive manner. The bride is a very charming little woman and Doctor Bitters has made no mistake in selecting her for his life companion. There were about fifty guests present at the reception to congratulate the Doctor and his brjde, who expressed their appreciation of the manner in which they had been entertained. Elegant refreshments were served at the wedding. The house and commodious porch were decorated for the occasion and the gathering was a happy one. The Doctor’s popularity while he was located here many years ago has not waned and he starts out in this new journey with the congratulations and well wishes of his friends for the future. The hostesses at the reception were Mrs. C. A. Roberts, Mrs. C. W. Duvall and Mrs. N. S. Bates. Dr. and Mrs. Bitters remained here over night, leaving for Rochester today. Dr. Bitters has not been practicing medicine for some time, but expects to enter the profession again, and will probably locate in Indianapolis.

The body of Miss Mary Riddle, whose death in Chicago was mentioned yesterday, arrived here on the late train last night. Miss Riddle left Pueblo, Colo., Monday evening in company with her brother Chris, who had been sent there to bring her home. Miss Riddle had been very low for three or four weeks and it was considered doubtful if she would be able to stand the long journey. She was taken to the train in Pueblo in an ambulance, and seemed to stand the trip to Chicago fairly well. The train was late in reaching that city and it was decided to take Miss Riddle to a hospital for a rest until time for the departure of the noon train. Her death took place in an ambulance while being removed to the hospital. Her age was 31 years. The funeral will take place at the Catholic church tomorrow, interment taking place at the Catholic cemetery. For a mild, easy action of the bowels, a single dose of Doan's Regulets is enough.

a coffee-pot, creamer and sugar in silver, came from the young men of the Farmers* National bank, of which Mr. Warren is not alone the president, but the personal friend and adviser of every employe. The gifts were so many and beautiful as to preclude mention, but each and every one was a true token of sincere cordiality, won by Mr. and Mrs. Warren by kindness in the past and many hopes were expressedthat their golden wedding anniversary might be celebrated together.
