Miss Elizabeth Barnard Becomes Bride
of John Wesley Fleming.
-------
          Two of the city's most widely known young people were united in marriage Saturday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, when  Miss Elizabeth Barnard, daughter of  Dr. and Mrs. R. F. Barnard,  became the bride of  John Wesley Fleming,  son of  Mr. and Mrs. G. R. Fleming,  of 334 west Mechanic street.  The ceremony took place at the home of the bride's parents, 37 west Mechanic street.
          The single ring service was read by Dr. J. W. McFall, pastor of the First M. E. church, before the fireplace, which was banked with ferns and palms.  The mantle was decorated with pompom chrysanthemums, snapdragons and carnations, all in white.   Two seven-branch candelabras, each decorated at the front with a bonquet of white flowers and ferns, were also used in the decorations.
          As the bridal procession came down the stairs, Miss Ellen Stewart, pianist, played Lohengrin's wedding march.  Preceding the ceremony she played "Oh, Promise Me,"  "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice"  and  "Liebestraum."  During the service she played "I Love You Truly" and following the wedding she played Mendelssohn's wedding march.
          The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, wore a floor-length dress of pale blue velvet with long sleeves shirred at the cuffs.  Shirring at the front of the waist was held by bands of velvet.  She wore matching satin sandals.  At the neck of the dress she wore a pair of rhinestone clips.  Her bouquet was of white snapdragons, gardenias and pompom chrysanthemums.  She carried a white lace handkerchief that was carried by  Mrs. Louis Spolyar,  of Indianapolis, at her wedding.
          Mrs. J. Paul Barnard, of this city, was matron of honor and wore a floor-length princess style gown of cyclamen faille, with a bolero jacket.  A row of velvet-covered buttons, a darker shade than the gown, extended the full length of the dress, and buttons also trimmed the sleeves of the jacket.  Her satin slippers matched the dress.  She wore a single string of pearls and carried a bouquet of cyclamen pompom chrysanthemums.  Both the bride and her attendant wore matching flowers in their hair.
          J. Paul Barnard, brother of the bride, was the best man.
          Mrs. Barnard,  mother of the bride, wore a black velvet gown trimmed at the neck with white lace, and  Mrs. Fleming,  mother of the bridegroom, wore a part wine crepe skirt with shirred turquoise blouse.
          Approximately fifty guests attended the wedding.  Following the ceremony a reception was held.
          After the reception Mr. and Mrs. Fleming left for a two weeks trip to Miami, Fla.  Mrs. Fleming's traveling outfit was a gold wool ensemble with black accessories.  When they return they will be at home at 215 west Franklin street.
          Mrs. Fleming was graduated from Shelbyville high school and attended DePauw university, where she was a member of the local chapter of Tri Kappa sorority, and is employed as secretary at the Inlow Clinic here.
          Mr. Fleming was graduated from Arsenal Technical high school, Indianapolis, and attended Purdue university.  He is a member of Phi Epsilon fraternity and is employed at Sandman Bros, in this city.
          Out-of-town guests at the wedding were  Dr. and Mrs. Louis W. Spolyar,  Mrs. and Mrs. Otto Cross  and Mr. and Mrs. Roger Sneden,  all of Indianapolis.

==================================
          Cullen, Martin & Megee will make a motion for a new trial for  Theodore Skotski, sentenced for two years at New Castle for aiding Reinheimer to escape.  They will base their motion on exceptions to Judge Barnard's rulings and instructions to the jury.  They are confident of a new trial.  If they fail to get one the case will be appealed to the Supreme court, where, they are confident, Judge Barnard's ruling will not be sustained. -- Rushville Jacksonian.
