The reception which followed the mar
riage of General William G. Heppen-
heimer, Speaker of the House of Assem-
bly,, to Miss Blanche Miller, daughter OF
Charles Miller, Esq, of New York, and a
niece of Jay Gould, was most brilliant
affair. As stated in The JERSEY CRY

rectory of st. Leo's Roman. Catholic
Church, New York, and was witnessed by
the members of the TWO families only.
Immediately after the reception the
bridal party drove to the home of the
bride, No. IA East Forty-fourth street,
where the reception was held. General
Heppenheimer and his bride took their
positions under floral canopy in the
front drawing room. This had been
transformed into a bower of tropical
plants, various species of palms and mag
nolia trees formed the back ground, and
two large columns of roses relieved by
lilies supported the canopy OF rare flowers
under which the bride and groom re-
ceived their friends. The mantels were
banked with roses, hydrangeas, mar.
guerites and orchids. Smilax and ivy en-
twined the chandeliers and the balus-
trades of the stairway.
