The Wedding Tour practices

The closing of the Centennial early
in the fall has fastened, many we'd
ding this year A large proportion
of the accounts of marriages in the
press have been winding up with the
information that "the happy couple,
after receiving the congratulation OF
their friends, left for the Centennial"
Noticing this, and the number of daz-
zling brides seen at Philadelphia, the
eastern papers have set in on a dis
cussion of the good and bad features
of the wedding tour habit of our good
Americans. The Philadelphia Times
gravely takes up the side of opposi-
ton to it. 1t concludes that it does
not take very philosophical mind to
see that they do these things better
abroad. The relation of the sexes be-
fore marriage in America and all 9TH
er parts Of the world are widely diff
ferent. Here an engaged man sees
his finance as often and as much as lie
pleases, and usually without the en-
barrassing presence of other people
in fact, common usage seems to die.
tate that if third person be left by
chance in the presence of betrothed
couple he shall consider himself an
trop, and withdraw if possible, even
if there seems to be no other reason
for his leaving them alone. In other
civilized countries the young girl is
to be guarded against the companion
ship or society of her betrothed hus
band as carefully as against associa-
ton with an utter stranger, and a
man sees his future wife alone but
seldom. Once married the same scru-
pulous care is taken to secure com.
plete privacy for the newly welded
couple. They go either to their own
house or some quiet retreat, where
they see as little company as possible,
and they do not take wedding tour
until they have become somewhat &C
customed to their new relations.
We have no intention of interfering
with the time honored customs OF
coartship and marriage in vogue in
American society but we wish to point
out some of the evils of the American
system of wedding tours. Marriage
is the great event of girls existence.
1t changes at once all her relations in
life. 1t transfers her allegiance from
parents to husband it removes her
from home where she has been kept
and watched over, to Z new home,
for whose creation and maintenance
she is to assume joint responsibility.
Everything is new to her. That she
may be properly fitted, mentally and
physically, to assume those burdens,
she should be in perfect health. She
should have no work to exhaust her
vitality, no excitement or care to
strain her nervous system Instead
of this, what is the act? Instead Of
Quiet there is hustle and noise; in
stead Of rest there is unceasing labor.
The bride spends the weeks preced-

Grass Widows


hlnueTHoOk fNOuRH Nobes.i
The term grass widow" is said
to be corruption of grace widow"
the former expression being merely
q barbarism. 'Grace widow" is the
term applied to one who becomes
widow by grace or favor, not of me-
cess,ty, as by death, and originated
in The early ages of European civiliz-
alton, when divorces were granted
but seldom and wholly by the Cath
Ollie church. When such decree was
granted to woman in the Papal re-
ceipt stated "Viduca de gratia,
which interpreted is "widow OF
grace" In the law of the French it
would read, "Veuve de grace" or
"grace wild W. veuve being trans
lated as widow.

ing her marriage closeted with dress
makers and bending over the needle.
Callers are more numerous, and to
every question Of preparation she
must give heed, for she is the sole ar
bitter. The morning of the day finds
her nervous and weary. Then comes
the excitement of dressing, the cere.
mony and receipt on, and hard after it
the long railway journey, of itself
enough to exhaust woman of not
ordinary strength Then comes the
days OF sight seeing, up in the morn
ing and away, on their feet all day,
with a hasty lunch at noon and sup
per at night when too tired to eat it.
It is enough To weary the strongest
man; what wonder that women fall
un Ter it? The nervous system will
carry them through great deal, but
even that may be strained until it
snaps, and it is surprising that the eff
fects of this foolish and reckless abuse
Of the human frame is not productive
of permanent injury.
The principal excuse for percipitat.
ing a wedding tour upon the wedding
ceremony is the feeling that off |
don't now never shall This is no
excuse whatever. Why not go away
quietly to some out-of-the-way place,
and postpone the journey, if only for
three days-three weeks would be
better the excitement and wor-
ry of the day has passed away. until
mind and body are invigorated by
rest and freedom from excitement
They would stand much better
chance of settling down in health and
peace, the happy inmates of fools

Stealing President Lincoln's Bones.

On election night an attempt was
made to steal the bones and ashes OF
Abraham Lincoln, from their rests
ing place at Springfield. H. How
the custodian, Mr.. j. G. Power, came
to suspect that crime of this char
acter was meditated is not known ;
but such was the case, and he COM
municated his suspicious to Robert
Lincoln and Leonard SWEET, who
employed Detective Tyrrell to look
about the town, and keep lookout
for suspicious character. Tuesday
afternoon Mr.. Power informed Tyr
rell that two hard-looking cases had
been out to the cemetery, looking
around in the vicinity OF the monu-
ment. They probably had nothing
to do with the attempted robbery
which occurred later; but it suggest
ed to TyrraIl to keep close watch /;
and luckily, on the train that
after Elmer Washburn, ex Chief
of the y. S. Secret Service arrived.
About p. M, Washburn, Tyrrell
and three other men, secreted them
selves in Memorial Hall. After
waiting three hours they heard q
grating sound, and afterward ham,
mering. The secreted men were
gliding from their places Of conceal
ment, when one of the pistols acct
denta'ly discharged while cooking it.
This frightened the ghouls, and be
fore the watchmen could reach the
place the dastardly villains had fled
into the grove surrounding the
monument. TIE other men follow
ed, and while lodging among The
trees. two Of them fired at each
other, mistaking the other for one OF
the fugatives, the bullets whistling
close to the ears of both Not being
able to find the wculd-b3 burglars,
the watchmen returned To the cata-
comb. The body of tho martyred
President, it may be remembered, is
enclosed in q lead casket. This is
surrounded by a cedar case, and the
receptacle of these is marble sarco-
phagus. The latter had double lid,
the upper one not as large a. the
other. Both had been pried off with
chisel or an ak, and somewhat
Clipped IN the operation. The
under lid was laid crosswise on the
the casket, the head-piece on the
floor, and the upper lid standing
against tho wall The casket itself
was pulled cu5 about foot from the
body of the sarcophagus, and a small
piece had been taken out
on the floor, where was an ak with
the edge full of marble-dust, COM
mon chisel, and pair of nipp9rs.
The other tools had evidently been
taken away, since the lock on the
iron.grated door had been sawed off.
The only motive for the deed that
can be imagined is, that these de-
spoilers of the grave hoped for re-
ward for the restoration Cf the re-
mains. 1t is supposed to have oeen
their intention to cut open the casket
and gather up the bones and dust of
the martyr President in bag and
carry them off. A slight clue TO the
identity of the Williams remains, and
they may yet be captured.

A Davenport Forger Burns the Evil
dence Against Him in the Court
Room.

Robert Temple, an accomplished
forger, was en- trial in Davenport, on
Monday, when the following scene
occurred Judge Kaufman stepped
out of court, leaving the checks, the
Conformation" and other papers con-
nected with the case, on the desk,
as is usual when proceedings are be-
gun in court. There were present,
Chief Martens, officers Tilebein, Pur-
cell and others, who were engaged
so that they were not particularly
noting the actions of the prisoner,
who at this stage of affairs walked
up to the desk, grabbed the two
checks, and before any one had
really noticed what he was about or
had time TO interfere, threw them
into the stove and burnt them up.
Just at this moment the Judge re-
turne !, not having been absent more
that three minutes. Officer Tilebein,
who saw the fellow throw something
into the stove, seemed to have rev.
citation all at once, asked the Judge
if he had the checks. The Judge
answered "no" and TiIebein said, Il
believe Temple has just burnt them
up." The Justice ran to the stove,
and was just in time to see the
checks in a blaze, but too late to
rescue them. He took look at
Temple, who set unconcerned, and
evidently ohuckIing over the trl>
umph of his coup d etat. The JUS
tice ordered the fellow to be taken
back to Jail, and granted the charge
of venue to Jnstice Viele. On the
way to jail Temple was chuckling
over the sharp trick he had played,
told the officer that they would find
it hard work 10 convict him now, as
the evidence was destroyed. 1t is
one of the Dol lest tricks we ever
heard of prisoner playing in this
State, to destroy the evidence of his
own guilt. But he over-reached the
mark, for the fact Of the existance OF
the forged checks aud that he, Tenn
pie. made them, can be proven, and
the further fact Of bis thus publicly
destroying them, will only be matter
for an additi )na indictment, and
have the effect Of sending him up for
an additional number of years.

Last year | raised lot of man.
Colds and carrots The mangolds
were gathered first and put into the
cellar; afterwsrd the carrots were
gathered and corded up on top of
them, so that when | began to teed
them to my cows, the carrots came
first. The COW gave about her usual
abundance of milk, except the usual
shrinkage on account of cold weather
and being put on dry fodder Fear
ing the beats would not keep as we'll
as the carrots, and also thinking
they possessed better milk.producing
qualities, | was anxious TO get at
them. Accordingly removed part
of the carrots and commenced feed
ing beets, when, to my surprise, my
COW began to fail of her milk until
the deficiency reached to about one
third. Wishing to tost the matter
still further, | changed back again to
