in this county the ceremony of immer>

that church by wellknown Baptist
minister of this city. When he had en-.

that somebody should sing an appropri>

out thinking, struck up the familiar
hymn, "Pull for the shore" The hymn
proved to be so suggestive that neither
the minister nor congregation could res

time, and the ceremony had to be post.

Mrs. Hicks, whose marriage with

of display and notoriety, and rather
popular In certain class of societ v.
Her husband, Mr.. Henry Hicks, was Il
Now York merchant, but his identity
was apparently lost after his marriage,
as he was generally spoken OF AZ Mrs.

that the public are apt to allude to the
better half OF some popular actress. For
some years previous to the death ef

religion. She occasionally returned to
her native country and burst
like a meteor upon the gay world
of Saratoga, a summer resort which
she preferred to Newport as being more
suited to her tastes. Mrs. Hicks was
never in what is called the best society
of New York ; but as she always APP
peared to have a good deal of money
and entertained very handsomely
there were always plenty OF guests
to respond to her invitations. In
Europe Mrs. Hicks made q far great.
er sensation than she ever did In New
York, as the liberal manner In which
she lavished her money brought Aer
into notoriety, and being foreigner
her receptions were always well at

While living in London she was sever.

time Lord Henry LenOx was named

Dame Rumor coupled her name
with that Of ex.Minister Schenck. In
London Mrs. Hicks generally occupied
the handsomest suites OF apartments
at Claridge's hotel, and there she ems

during her stay at Claridge's that the
story was told about the proprietor
calling upon her one day, and asking
her if she would have any objection to

short time, M he expected the queen
of Holland, and that her royal high

occupy them AZ her guest she would be
very happy to entertain her.

Marrying for Love.

Paris correspondent of the'New York
Times Another American is about to
be united to prominent Frenchman.
The Marriage Of Miss Polk to NJ. de
Charette has been announced here and
the ceremony is to take place in the
private chapel of the Papal Nuncio.
Only the family Of the bride and bride
groom are to be present. The future
baroness has entered the Catholic church
at the request of her future husband.
There is one detail connected with this
marriage that may be interesting. De
Charette is poor, and had great need
of wife with money. Several rich
marriages were proposed. But he is
fond of Miss Polk, and is going to make
her his wife, although her fortune is
very small. The first wife of De ChaN
rette was a daughter of the duke of Fitz.
James, by which he had two children.
