A MIXED SOCIETY ROMANCE.

A Former Morristown Coachman and
Andrew Carnegie's Niece Married.
A story that has all the elements
of romance came to light Wednesday
through the simple announcement Of
the arrival from Europe of Mr.. and
Mrs. James Hever and their infant
daughter The bride Mr. and Mrs. He
yer we're married less then a year ago,
and were spending their honeymoon
across the water-was formerly Miss
Nancy Carnegie, one of the most prom
inent society girls of Pittsburg, New
York, and Dungeness, Fernandina,
Fla, while the grom comes from the
humber walks Of life, and was, for a
time, her mothers coachman.
Previous to removing to Pittsburg
the groom resided in Morristown and
was for number of years the coach
man for Mrs. Julius Catlin. He and
his children are we'll known here.
The bride is the youngest child of
Mrs. Lucy Coleman and the late
Thomas M. Carnegie, and niece of
Andrew Carnegie. The groom was a
widower with two children, one Of
whom, a little girl, was being reared in
a convent. She has now been taken
from the convent by her father, how
ever and is a member of the family
again.
Although the marriage took place
in New York almost a year ago, 1t was
not made public at the time, and the
secret has been so well kept that none
but members of the brides family and
very few OF their closest relatives and
friends had any inkling of the true
state of affairs. Some months ago
rumors Of an elopement from Fernan-
dina were current, but denial was
made, and since then nothing has been
known. Now, however, the story is
make public. The young people have
been received by the brides family,
and they are being entertained at the
palatial home of the brides uncle and
aunt-Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Carnegie,
in New York.
