 SCHANTZ - BRINKER
 Brilliant Wedding at the Central Presbyterian Church Last Evening
 One of the largest attended weddings ever celebrated in Rochester was that of Albert L. SCHANTZ, of No. 71 Chestnut street, to Josephine A., only daughter of General and Mrs. Henry BRINKER, at the Central Presbyterian church at 6:30 o'clock last evening. Over 600 invitations had been issued and notwithstanding the rain nearly all of the invited guests were present. Long before the hour at which the ceremony was to be held the entrance and vestibules of the church were crowded. After the sitting reserved for the invited guests had been filled the doors were thrown open for the admittance of all, and at 6 o'clock the entire auditorium and portions of the gallery were crowded. At the chosen hour the bride on the arm of her father and preceded by the ushers, bridesmaids and maids of honor in the order named entered and were met at the alter by the groom and his best man where the ceremony was performed by the pastor. Rev. H. H. STEBBINS, D. D. The programme of selections as rendered by the church organist, Frank MANDEVILLE, was as follows: Overture, "Merry Wives of Windsor," by Nicolai; Serenade, by Jensen; Scene, "Cavelleris Rusticana,: by Muscagni; waltz movement, "Flirtation," by Steck; Elizabeth's Aria, "Tannhauser," by Wagner.
 After the consummation of the nuptials the bridal party was driven to the beautiful home of the bride on Brinker Park, where a wedding feast was in readiness for 250 guests. Meyering's orchestra was in attendance and furnished music for dancing which was indulged in to a late hour.
 The bride's dress was of white moire antique trimmed with duchess lace. She carried white roses and wore as an ornament a diamond brooch, the gift of the groom. The maid of honor, Miss May BARBER of Syracuse, was attired in white francaise and white duchess lace, and carried a bouquet of yellow roses. The bridesmaids were Miss Emma STEHLER, Miss Emma LESTER, Miss Mary STRANCHEN, and Miss JUlia HAHN, all of this city. They wore gowns of white silk trimmed with point lace and carried pink roses. The best man was George BRINKER, brother of the bride, and the ushers were Messrs. W. S. BERRY, C. B. HOWARD, Dwight SMITH, and Harry EDGERTON, all of this city. Among the number of wedding gifts was a check for $500 from Messrs. William D. GEORGE, and Lewis BRUNN, uncles of the bride. The guests from out of town Mr. and Mrs. William BRUNN, Mr. and Mrs. William LIGHT, and Miss Martha MAHUCKEN of New York, Mr. and Mrs. T. M. BARBER and daughters of Syracuse, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. MYERS and Albert BALTZELL of Lyons, and Mr. and Mrs. Jonas LEVI of Cincinnati, O.
