 Occasions.

New York.-Liying in a prominent hotel i'll this city preparatory to mar rying a young millionaire whose life she saved two years ago in the Le- nigh Valley river, at Allentown, Pa, Is Miss Jennie Clausen," who, when she met the man she is to marry, worked as a mill-hand at eight dollars d week in the Pennsylvania town.
 That she might be fitted for the life and social position to which her husbands fortune would call her, the young woman for two years lived in home on Fifth avenue, owned by the young millionaire. She had $250000 year, and with a retinue of servants placed at her disposal lived the life of a social queen. It is said that she has taken such good care of the money that she has doubled it.
 By reading, association. observation and education the former mill hand fitted herself for her future life, and is ready to take her place at her husbands side, his social and intellectual equal. The man whose name is withheld until the mar riage, which is expected to occur this month is a member of one of New York s wealthiest and most exclusive families.
 Joseph Mack, one of the largest employers in the city of Allentown and interested in both the silk and the automobile business, is one of the men who know all about the TO, nance of the factory girl and the mil Honaire New Yorker With the oth CTS he respects her wishes for secrecy regarding her identity and plans.

 The meeting between the factory girl and the young millionaire was the result of a chain of accidents On his way to take part in a polo game in another city, the young man was halted by a wreck near Allen town. On the banks of the Lehigh river he watched at play a score of factory girls led by Miss Clausen, and in his interest in the game he made a misstep With cry he fell into the river, and would have drowned had not Jennie Clausen pulled him out.
