How queer to my sight aro the fair promenad-
ors,
When bright afternoons bring Thorn out to my
view!
The ribbons, tho founces. the tangled-up
dresses,
The bnlmoral stockings, the heel-1ifted shoel
The high. towering chignon the pot lid htched
to it,
The back hair turned up where the waterfall
fell;
The cotton deyce-those things I'll not men
And cen the plump panier! the flip -fappy
paner
The cx-bu: tie panier. that makes such swell!

There was n wedding In Grace Church
the other night, and the bride and
groom were warmly congratulated. It
Is said that the bride, O beautiful young
lady Of this city, had two ardent lovers,
both Of whom were equally confident.
One of the lovers lives in st. Louis, and, ,
as the story goes, was to have been
married to the young lady this evening,
every arrangement having been made
for the wedding; but the other lover
came forward, ardentlypleaded his suit,
and carried off the prize, at the very
time the lover over in st. Louis was pre-
pairing to start for Louisville to claim
his bride. He Is expected to arrive this
morning-"counted out"

THE COURTHOUSE DOME


Naturally enough, every action Of the
rioion, and AZ soon A. II was announced that
the Donrd had determined to lot Comfy
Architect EoAx build tie Court House domo by
tlay Labor manifold theories were suggested
whereby tho ring intended this arrangement
to contribute to their own advantage. Ono
reason assigned for 1t was, that the Hing
would not consent that tho work should be
done except BY ono Of their pot contractors,
like WALKER or SEx1oN, aud still did not
dare to ignore lowor responsible bids In order
TO give the contract 10 ono OF their own men.
Another was, that, by building the dome by
day-labos, tho King could extend their
patronage and drag out tho work indefinitely.
This Is what Mr.. KaAx has 10 say about tho
matter:
