Tie Young Eager Marriage
Was a Unique Social
Event.
BRIDAL-ROBE RAPTU RE.
A Queer Story Of a Widows Loye---
Doings of Society People,

Little has been discussed in social cir
Giles this week but the Young Eager we'd
ding, and the thousand or more people
who Witnessed thave had plenty to dom
talking it over. 1t was without doubt
the grandest wedding that has taken
place in Jersey City for many years, and
it is doubtful if such brilliant display
mas. ever before characterized social
event. To say It was pretty wedding
gives but q vague idea Of the complete
ness and brilliancy which marked the
event. have never seen q more beauti-
full bride or one richly and tastefuily
attired than Miss Eager.
PRODUCTION OF nEDFERN.
Her dress was an importation OF Red
fern and was an exquisite production.
The front of the gown was of Roman
pearls and Rhine stones which had q
brilliant finish at the waist of girdie of
brilliants. This was of remarkable
beauty The favors which the bride
and dainty. being bracelets of forget-me-
nots, from which hung gold daisy set
with diamonds. The house decorations
Were exquisite and Dortieres OF roses and
banks of bright blossoms shed their per-
fume throughout the rooms. AT
five hundred guests present
and the brilliancy Of the gathering seemed
like a glimpse of fairyland. There are
probably no two young people in society
mere who have been more popular than
Mi. and Mrs. Young and their marriage
seemed 70 create unusual interest in the
circles which they have adorned. That
the marriage was agreeable to both fanai-
lies there is no doubt. and it is predicted
that Mrs. Edward L. Young will in due
time succeed to the brilliant leadership Of
society at present enjoyed by Mrs. E. Z. G.
Young.
WEEK OF WEDDINGS.
This has been great week for mar
riages and each day has seen the celebra-
ton OF one or more. But except the
Young Eager wedding they have all been
quiet affairs. and it seems that the brill
liant ones have all been arranged for the
coming week. There is little time now
for any small affair such as young peo-
pies dances or card parties, 50 much time
have the weddings required. Many of
our society girls have been very busy
working for Christ Hospital Fair, which
has been held all this week, and have
found the week a pretty busy one.
ALL FOR THE WIDOW.
There is young Scion OF society in this
city who is trying hard TO discover
whether he is the most happy or the most
miserable of mOrtals. 1t seems that this
attentions to a widow, or rather, q
widow whose husband has not left this
terrestrial sphere and who is many years
his senior. These attentions have been
conducted in a wonderfully secret man
her and it was some time before
they reached the ears of the
father. A tempestuous interview
but mildly describes the scene
between father and son, and when the
latter was told TO choose between the
widow and his home he gallantiy took
the widow and departed from his par
entail roof in high indignation. But
rumor says that the heat of his indigna-
lion coois of as the sum in his pockets
rapidly diminishes, but whether he re-
gfets the choice ne made or not is not yet
known AT least, the true inwardness'
= of his thoughts he keeps most
jealousy to himself and when
his friends remind him that a
home and liberal allowance await him il
he will forsake the widow he smiles
griinly and reiterates his first choice.
just what the sequel of this interesting
episode will be many are specializing.
