HESTER CLYMER.

In st, Paula Talk With q "GlObe" Re-
porter-Mr. Clymer Thinks the Pennsyl-
vania Democrats Made Mistake In Ig-
noring the Unit Rule-Departure for
Washington Tonight.
The st. Louis Republican of the 9th con-
tains the following:
The engagement of Mrs. Mimi Clemens nee
Won Schrader, of this city, to the Hon. Hiester
Clymer, member of Congress from Pennsyl-
vania, has been announced repeatedly in the
local and Eastern papers within the last six
weeks, exciting no little interest in high cir
cles by reason of the family connections and
wealth of the bride and the political and social
position of the groom. Speculation eliminated
in certainty yesterday afternoon, at least to the
fortunate ones bidden to the wedding cere'
monies at the house of the brides mother, Mrs.
Won Schrader, on Garrison avenue, corner OF
Thomas street.
The marriage service, performed according
to the rites Of the Catholic church, by the Rev.
Father Brantner, occurred at o'clock in the
presence of large representation of the fam
lilies of both parties and few intimate friends.
Among them were: Mrs. Alexander Kayser, of
Germany, and Mrs. Henry Ksyser and family; :;
Mr.. Will Clemens, Mrs. Edgar Lakeland and
Miss Mary Lakeland, Miss Mary Boyer, Miss
Lizzie Eustice Gen. and Mrs Henderson,
Lieut.. and Mrs. Hodgson, nee Julie Won Schrad-
er; Miss Pinney Won Schrader, Miss Annie Won
Schrader, Mr.. Fritz Won Schrader and Mrs.
Won Schrader, the immediate family of
the bride; Mr.. Edward Olymer, of Read
ing, Pa, and Mr.. and Mrs. George
Brooke and Mrs. Edward Brooke, of Birdstown,
Pa, of the family of the groom; Commander
Reed and Mr.. Millikin, of Philadelphia, inti-
mate friends of the groom, and few others.
No bridemaids or groomsmen swelled the
suite, and there was an absence OF all floral
emblems or studied decorations in the large
double parlors, but profusion of rare tiowere
in jardinieres, vases and graceful baskets, all
gifts to the bride, filed the measure of lowell
ness to the eye and distributed their perfume
throughout the house.
THE BRIDE
looked every inch bride in her robe of deli
cate pearl-gray gros-grain of magnificent tex
ture, whose beauty had witcnery that by con-
trast made white insipid. A soft tint of
warmth seemed to blush in the rich fabric
where it lay in thick folds as they swept forth
in the long and ample court train about whose
edges riffs of fine lace lay like rime, but ere
you could define the gleam of q tint twas gone,
and the pale pearl of the petticoat fecked and
shadowed by deep falls of superb duchesse
in pattern of oak-leaves and roses
alternating with scantily shirred puffs
of the pearl tinted silk was simply and
ed in front with short pointed paniers closely
drawn and edged all around with the exquisite
duchesse lace. Above the lace lay wide
passementerie of cut crystal beads, Empid as
dew, patterned in phantom fret work of
acorns and leaves, which impaired simmer
ing, fairy-like beauty to this lovely robe.
About the square cut corsage and elbow sleeves
these frosty encrustations of leaves and scorns
overlay the drifts of snowy lace
that shadowed the same chaste
patterns mingled with roses, on
the underlying ruches of tulle. just where
the corsage came together superb diamond
pin sparkled, and the solitaires in the ear
rings matched its brilliant water. From 3
o'clock until 5
A BRILLIANT RECEPTION
was held, and the invited guests, including
many of the most prominent citizens, came to
offer their congratulations.
The collation., served on very long table,
handsomely decorated with cut glass, fine
china and beautiful flowers, consisted mostly
of ices of every variety, elegant cakes and the
very finest brands of champagne.
The presents to the bride are said to have
been remarkable for costliness and beauty,
but were not exhibited even to a select few
outside of her family. By half-past five all
the guests had dispersed, and little later the
bride, attired in her travelling dress of soft
fawn-tinted chuddah.cloth, with petticoat and
trimmings of satin of same shade, and bonnet
to match, left with her newly-married husband
for the depot, where they were joined by their
relatives and friends from Pennsylvania, who
completed the bridal party, and in special
car the cortage left for Milwaukee, and from
thence they proceed to Reading, Pa, the home
of the groom.
