Astoria society has been agog for weeks over the anticipated wedding of Misi Lola Dora Foard, one of the most popular of the younger Astor- iciines, the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Foard, and Mr. William Campbell Smith, of the Northern Pacific Railway service of Tacoma; and last night the last and plcasantcst anticiption in this regard was achieved. The lovely young bride is known far and wide in this community where here whole life has been spent, and her hosts of friends, and those of her family, left nothing undone that might contribute to the joy and charming detail of this, the drowning event of that life. Her young friends and as sociates have literally deluged her with showers of various sorts for the past few weeks , and each of these dainty events has led gracefully up to the happy climax in which the whole concourse of friends and kinsmen had gracious part. As the hour of 8 o'clock struck last evening the wedding party entered the portals of Grace Church, and to the strains of the beautiful "Swedish Wedding March," splendidly rendered by Miss Carrie Short, as crjanist, swept to the chancel rails where they were met by Rev. William Seymour Short, rector of the parish, who, in the inspiring and impressive terms of the ritual of that faith, made them ! man and wife. Lona before they appeared the old church was crowded to its utter limit by the wealth and fashion of Astoria, and the superb gowning of the ladies lent additional charm to the exquisite decorations of the edifice; only the aisles were kept clear, every available inch of space being given over to ,,. hunlanitv The church was - beautifully adorned with ' .

S Brown and W. T. Logan. At the close of the ceremony the bridal party was driven directly to the handsome and spacious home of Mr. and Mrs. Foard, on the crest ot Seventeenth street, and were quickly followed by the hundreds that had thronged the church, beside those who had waited to pay their respects at the reception. The reception was in almost in stant progress and was the medium for the expression of the devoted in terest which possessed every friend of the popular family in Astoria, and was one of the happiest affairs ever noted here. The decorations at the Foard home were extremely beautiful and artistic. The reception rooms were a mass of pink and white roses with the dining room in yellow. An orchestra hid den behind a flower screen discoursed sweet music during the progress of the reception. In the receiving line stood the bride and groom, Mr. and Mrs, Joseph Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Martin Foard and Miss Mildrfed Smith. The bride's gown was an ex quisite creation of white marquisette "in traine" with trimmings of Duch ess lace. The veil was held in place with a wreath of orange blossoms. Zht rnrri-) an arm boUOUCt of bride roses, with maiden hair fern. The maid of honor, Miss Freda Foard was in pink and carried pink carnations. The brides maids, . Miss Martha Foard, Miss Meta Peterson of San Francisco; Miss Jones of Ta coma and Miss Hulbcrt of Seattle, were in white over blue and car ried white carnations. The flower girl little Miss Helen Virginia Hous ton was in pink. Fully 300 guests thronged the home, all joining in con gratulations and well wishes for the happy young couple. The presents were displayed in two upper rooms and they were filled to overflowing.

MISS HARPER'S "MAGDA." hi- r 1 1 1 Clever Actress at Astoria Theatre Pleases Audience in an In teresting Play. Those who saw Miss Georgia Har per's "Magda" at the Astoria last night left the theatre with the con viction that they had seen a clever woman in a fine part. Miss Harper's "Magda" is artistic arid polished. Her work in the third act is master ful. She is so easily in command of the strong scene, when it rises to its climax, the action does not find her blindlv after it, but in full nnwer of everv word and action. The role of Magda demands emotionalism of the right sort and Miss Harper has it. When it is said that she is a suc ress in this olav the full story has been told and elaboration there upon adds nothing. Aside from her ability to act she knows how to dress, and gowns that caused admiration were shown as the play progressed. J. j. Harper, as the father of Magda, was good and his several scenes with Magda were handled in an artistic manner. The quite, gentle and for trivinflr nastor became a hero in the hands of Mr. Detrick and the part of Herr Von Keller was played with good judgment by Melvin Mayo, ill he nresented aizain to night, this will be the last opportunity to see it. as the bill will be changed to "Oh, What a Night," Thursday evening.
