The Best Swimmer at Long Branch

An hour after she had been driven
away in her carriage I went to battle.
Sporting in the water was a young girl,
the picture of health and maidenly hap
piness. Her face and arms were brown
as a berry, and she sported in the break
ers like a mermaid. She could swim a
better stroke than any OF the young
men surrounding her. Her graceful
antics in the water attracted the atten-
ton not only of the bathers but of ev-
cry looker-on from the splendid bath
houses of the Hollywood cottages. She
could dive and turn q somersault in the
water as gracefully as a swan and her
plain but neatly fitting bathing suit ad-
ded charm to her movements, without
retarding them. She must have been
in the water a half hour or more-the
very picture of a water nymph. Inev-
er saw a female swimmer who could
match her either in agility or graceful
ness. Every n was inquiring her
name, and just as she walked out of
the water, a perfect picture of symme-
try and becoming modesty, some one
said: why, that is Jennie Kenney.
of Philadelphia. She is the most noted
swimmer along the coast"
This was apparent from what I had
seen. I believe this young lady is the
daughter of Mr.. II. +. Kenney, tho
superintendent of the Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad.
But be that as it may, she carries off
the palm among all the female bathers
of this place. As | saw her emerge
from her bath-honse a half hour after
she left the water, dressed in q neatly
fitting suit, I could not help but think
how much rscher she was than the old
lady with her twelve millions. The
one young. healthy. and attractive with
herlife all before her; the other old and
alone. with life spent and burden
some millions to give away to those
who will appreciate the ggiver only as /
