wedding breakfasts are no~ often
arranged ON the plan OF a tall supper,
with several hound tables and a long
buffet, where the majority OF the
company take their lunch standing,
the tables being appropriated to the
relatives OF the bridegroom and the |
principal guests. Frequently, how
ever, the old custom of sitting down
breakfast is adhered to, and If 1T is,
the wedding cake is placed i" the
centre of the table and the bride and
bridegroom take their places oppo-
site to it. In the former plan the
cake is placed in the centre of the
buffet. When the breakfast is an
nounced the bride and bridegroom
lead the way to the dining-room,
the brides father follows with the
bridsgroom's mother, and seats him
self next to his daughter; the BRIDE
groola's father comes next with the
brides mother and places her beside
the bridegroom. Very frequently
the bridesmaids all sit opposite to
the bride accompanied by the gen.
tlemen who have beon desired by the |
hostess to take them down; the best
man invariable taking the chief |
bridesmaid. Speeches are now con-
tined-when there are any at all
to the health OF the bridegroom, pro- |
posed in few words-the fewer the |
better-by the gentlemen of the high |
est rank present. The bridegroom
IN returning thanks sometimes pro-
poses the health OF the bridesmaids,
for whom the best man briefly re-
spends. There should be no other
toasts, and even these may we'll be
dispensed with. The bride puts the

A silk Strike-Pugnacious Women.

There was great excitement among
the silk factory hands at Patterson, New
Jersey, Wednesday. Five or six hundred
of them are on a strike. The Hamilton
mill has shut down, and several mills
are without hands. AT meeting of the
strikers in Military Hall that day, Gus
tave Heinrichs favored returning to
work. The women attacked him and
tore his coat. One woman threw salt
and pepper in his eyes. He drew an
empty revolver, but was chased out of
the hall and pursued half mile, hun
dreds of persons joining in the chase, it
having been reported that he had shot
woman. He was captured, taken before
Justice Hudson, and discharged. He
made complaint against the woman
who assaulted him with salt and pepper,
and she was arrested and held to bail in
$500. The operatives are determined to
stand firm and so are the employees.

Robbed and Deserted.

Frank Whittemore, a painter, met
Miss Alice Carter, wealthy young
heiress, IN New York a year ago, and
they became betrothed. They eloped
and went to live in West Hoboken.
Several weeks ago Mrs. Whlttemore
gave birth to a child, and the father of
the young wife relented, and sent check
for 81 600 to his daughter to fit up her
household. On Monday week young
Whittemore procured the mony on the
check and quit home. The forsaken
wife told the story of her husbands
abandonment to her father, and hewent
to Hoboken. On Tuesday she packed
up her furniture and started for New

A Terrible Fire.

a dispatch received late on Wednesday
night last says thata terribly destructive
fire is now raging in st. John, New
Brunswick. A telegram received early
on Thursday morning states that all the
public buildings, three principal hotels
and all newspaper offices are burned.
About three-fourths of the city is de-
stroyed. The fire is still raging, and is
beyond control.
The Western Union Telegraph office
only saved their instruments and books.
Several schooners and larger vessels
were burnt to the waters edge. Rats
laden with goods and household wares
readily caught the flames and were con-
sumed.
The fierce wind drove the flames to
the south and east and destroyed every
thing till they reached the water's edge.
Fivemen and two infants are now known

to have lost their lives and many are
missing. The loss is estimated at from
$1O,OOO,OOO to $40, 900 900, and the insur-
ance will not, 1t is thought, exceed S0,-
100000. Thousands of people wander
the streets, homeless and in despair.
The destruction of provisions of all
kind seems to point to famine, and relief
must come in speedily or many must
perish from want. Few saved even their
clothes. The fire is still raging, and no
hope is entertained of extinguishing 1t
until 1t has exhausted itself for want of
material to keep 1t alive. The wind has
died down but the fire still burns fiercely.
The gas-works are destroyed and the
remainder of the city is in darkness.
The area burned is nearly two hundred
acres.

ordered the girl to deliver the money
and other valuables on pain of DEATH

up stairs and get the money. This he
permitted, but she procured Mr.. Den
nison's revolver instead, and when her
visitor showed no inclination to obey
her commands to leave the house she
fired, and the rufiian fell. The other
tramps Immediately appeared and car
ried Off their groaning comrade, and no
trace of them has yet been found.

A Sensible Judge.

Judge Rhone, of Luzerne county, has
has called for the vouchers for the items
termed funeral expenses in recent case
heard in theorphans' court. The amount
of the decedent's personal estate was
1851. .S2, while the expenses of burial were
returned by the administrator at S139.75.
On the subject of eXtravagant funerals
Judge Rhone says cit is not necessary
to have pompous procession in great
length, in which figure conspicuously
waving plumes - the prancing livery
steed, harnessed to finely upholstered
vehicles-and a glistening silver plated
caslet in which is placed the cold clay,
clothed with raiment as costly as the
richest he wore when living. Neitheris
pile of carved marble with poetic in
scriptions set over the tomb in con-
spicuous corner lot in the city of the
dead, necessary for a Christian burial
Have the terms grave coffin and shroud,
been forgotten by everybody? Such
parades as are called fine funerals may
crafty the vanity of the living, but no
respect for the dead demands them, and
where decedent's estate is limited and
his debts are not paid or where he leaves
family of helpless children, the ex-
penses of such burials will not be allow
ed out of his estate. Those who con-
tract for and enjoy such luxuries must
pay for them themselves"
