Among the invited guests * were relatives, friends, Rivingtonians, Columbians. and Barnardese.Most of them had sent gifts of jewelry, house furnishings, or flowers. Among the larger gifts received was one of $10,000— the brother said—from the bride’s father, a house on East 12.‘d Street and complete furnishings from the mother. $5,000 from the bride’s brother, a $000 piano and a diamond brooch and bracelet from the iridegroom.I'ntiring labor on Abe part of the traffic policemen dispersed the pushcarts from Jiivington Street at 0 o’clock yesterday evening, just as the streets were filling more and more with the home-coming tide of office and shop workers. Then, while the fishmep and button dealers and pushcart haberdaShers deserted their stalls and crowded around, the -wedding procession filed Interminably out of the Karp house, into the waiting carriages and taxicabs, whence they wrere nresentlv whirled to the synagogue, w’hile Rivington Street, unused to so much of Broadway, gaped and gaped.At the synagogue, which w\as brilliantly draped with American flags and red. white and blue bunting, were some thousand guests. Three clergvmen officiated at the wedding—Rabbis Israel Kannowitz. Abraham Orenstein, and Zallc-l Rosen. The ci-reinonv was performed under a brilliant velvet canopv called the ” chuppa ” or “ heaven,” which the bride and her maids had decorated several days before with lili*s and smilax. with a white dove hovering above it. Under this entered from one side the bridegroom, wearing a high silk hat, followed bv bis best man. the bride’s brother, and his family, while from the other side came the bride, her maids, and her family.
