Yours for business. Married Five Year, and Kept the Secret fur That Time. New York, Oct. 27.—The papers here have printed a wedding notice which annonneed that in 1888 Eugene Van Schaick had become the husband of Miss Sarah Howland Pyne. Eugene Van Schnick comes of un old nnd rich Knickerbocker furaily, but Mrs. Van Schaick does not. That and the Indy’s youth made it seem best five years ago to keep the secret of each nn eventful | thing as a marriage. It was a romance, that courting of the Jersey girl by this Knickerbm scion. Miss Pyiie wns tile daughter of James Walter Pyne of Newark, near which ptneo lie owned quite an estate. Miss Pyne hail a pretty face and a lithe form, mid Hje-nt a great deul of time in New York with relatives while she at tended school. When they met, Mr. Van Schnick wns 28 years old. There was trouble in the Van Schnick house hold. Tne match was not exactly liked over in Jersey. The young lady’s father wished her to finish her education. The young man's father wanted him to fin ish his. So the yonng people ostensibly deferred to the objections. Sir. and Mrs. F. C. Buddon, friends of the bride, were let into the secret. The little company went over to Wiliiams- bnrg and called upon the Rev. Strodach to perform the ceremony. The good man made no searching inquiries re garding identity. He tied the knot and presumably got his fee. and then, just as in hundreds of similar cases, after registering the ceremony, forgot all about it. Mr. Von Scliaik and his bride parted company that evening, one going to her Jersey home and later returning to school. Time rolled on and Mr. Pyne died. Sir. Van Schaick took his father. Henry Van Schaick, into his confidence. Troubles were smoothed over all around, and Mr. and Mrs. Van Schaick began married life by taking apartments at the Gerlach some time ago. Little bits of gossip began to float around. Sir. Von Hchaik's intimates were let into the open secret. Bat it wns apparent that a regular public announcement would straighten matters out. It wns made. The "God bless yon, ray children," be came a reality. Feminine opposition in the Van Sbhaick household was re laxed and now ail the family unite in saying that it just pleases them beyond expression. Though rich and handsome Mr. Vun Schaick has had an aversion to society for the last few years. It can now be' explained to mochers of marriageable daughters. He has been a leading official of the Munnattan Athletic clnb in various capacities. He was the first president of the Knicker- brocker Fencing club. Lust year he went to Europe as captain and manager of the Cnerry Diamond athletic team. He is a member of the Union club.
