It was Mr. Knlston wbo ou ono occasion challenged Ir.

I'enroso to swim from Philadelphia to Chester, a. dis-tauceof fillceu miles, whieb ho did in live hours and fivo minutes. Although the now fashioned long frock coats are very trying the ushers made a distinguished-looking group and were in every way creditable to Philadelphia. The ceremony was performed hy Rev. Dr.

W. S. Ralntflnrd, who wore tho purple hand of his English university degree. Alter the ceremony there was a small breakfast nt the residence of the bride mother, Mrs. Joseph Drexel, on Madison avenue, to which only the Jelatives and a very few intimate friends were invited.

Tne presents "were particularly handsome and included many jewels and larsro amount of plate. Ir. and Mrs. Penrose, after their bridal tour, will reside iu Philadelphia. Ifitbe true tbat "happy is the bride the sun shines on," Miss Drexel must have tho promlso of exceptional felicity.

It was an ideal Indian summer day, with a blue sky flecked with light clouds overhead and a balmy air and brilliant sunshine nliich grad ually dissipated the soft buzeof tbemorning. It is not the custom of tho members of the Drexel family to make auy special display on such occasions and no effort was made to have the wedding "grand "or magnificent." fin the contrary, the apparent intention was to make it as simple and unostentatious as possible. Nevertheless, with such interests represented and with the social elements or two cities concerned, this union of New York wealth and beauty with Philadelphia intelligence and manhood could not be otherwise than a notable Incident. It brought together some of the greatest beauties and leaders of fashion and influential men of the two great neighboring cities of New York and Philadelphia.
