CHRISTY - CAMPBELL.

  An exceedingly pretty autumn wedding was solemnized on Wednesday 
evening at the residence of the late Mr. Cornelius Campbell, 1214 
Eighth avenue, when his youngest daughter - Miss Elizabeth Seabrook 
Campbell - became the wife of Mr. James Hewitt Christy, of 
Hollidaysburg, Pa.  The ceremony was performed by Rev. Henry Howard 
Stiles, of the Second Presbyterian church.  The maid of honor was Miss 
Humes, of Altoona, and the best man, Mr. S. Royer Dibert, of 
Hollidaysburg.  The house was prettily decorated with palms, pink and 
white chrysanthemums. 
  The bride wore a gown of heavy white satin, trimmed with lace and 
orange blossoms, and carried white chrysanthemums.  Miss Humes was 
gowned in a dainty white organdie and valencienes over pink satin, 
carrying a bouquet of pink chrysanthemums, tied with long, flowing pink 
ribbons.
  The bridal party entered the drawing room to the strains of the 
bridal chorus from Lohengrin.
  Following the ceremony the young couple received the congratulations 
and kindly wishes of a large number of friends and after a wedding 
supper left on a late train on their wedding journey.
