This morning, Henry Aalbers and Miss Catherine Lugering were united in marriage at St. Francis church. The holy ceremony was solemnized at 8 o'clock, and was followed by celebration of the mass.

The bride was attractively attired in a gown of white silk, which was trimmed with real lace and chiffon. Her long, flowing silk veil was caught in her hair with a beautiful sunburst, a gift from the groom. She carried no flowers, but held in her hand a white prayer book.

The bridal couple was attended by Miss Mary Lugering, a sister of the bride; and Benjamin Aalbers, a twin brother of the groom. The bridesmaid wore a gown of Persian lawn, trimmed with lace; and a large picture hat. She carried a bouquet of cream colored roses. Little Hilda Grawe, a niece of the bride, acquitted herself creditably of her duties as flower girl, carrying roses.

After the wedding, the bridal party returned to the home of the bride at 2134 State street, where a bountiful wedding breakfast was served. During the afternoon and evening, a large reception will be tendered the many friends of the young couple.

One hundred invitations have been sent out, and, with few exceptions, all the guests are or will be present. After the wedding supper this evening, the young people will spend several hours in dancing. For the older folks, and those who do not care to dance, cards and other pastimes have been provided, so that everyone may have every possible opportunity of enjoying a very pleasant evening.

Mr. and Mrs. Aalbers have decided not to take a wedding trip, but will settle down and go to housekeeping at once, in their tastefully furnished, cozy home, at 831 North Sixteenth street.

The bride is a charming and refined young lady, of whom her husband has just reason to be proud. Sincere and amiable, she has made friends of all her acquaintances.

The groom is a blacksmith by trade, and at present, is employed at the Electric Wheel Works. He has many excellent qualities, and is a worthy companion to the charming young lady who gave him her heart and hand.

Among the guests from out of the city were Mrs. Gilling of Milwaukee, an aunt of the groom; and George Lugering, of Fort Madison, Iowa, a cousin of the bride.
