A Change in the Cast.

A curious piece of gossip, which is well
authenticated, comes here from Newport
in regard to recent marriage in high
life" at that aristocratic resort. The facts
are, according to those in position to
know, that the groom who was to have
served, when the wedding-day was fixed
and the bridesmaids invited to otficlate,
was almost at the last moment replaced
by another gentleman, the bride having
made up her mind just before it was too
late that she loved the naval officer,
whom she met in Europe while on a tour
around the world about two years before,
better than the Washington gentleman,
whom she met in California while near
ing the conclusion of the same journey.
The latter was on his way to Newport to
terminate in marriage an engagement
which had lasted a year or more, and every
preparation was rapidly progressing for
the wedding, when suddenly the naval
officer appeared and accidentally renew
ed the acquaintance with the bride-el
She reconsidered her pledges to the other
and accepted the naval gentleman's de-
caration Of love, avowing that her heart
had only then betrayed its true inclina
tons. The wedding took place on the day
originally fixed and exactly as at first
arranged in all respects save substitute
for the groom first selected took the lead
ing masculine role on the occasion. The
rejected bridegroom received telegram
en- rcutc of the change in the cast, and re
turned to California without the lady he
had hoped to place at the head of the es-
Adjustment he had made ready tor his
bride. 1t is soothing, while glancing at his
side of" the romance in real life, ITO re-
member Shakespeare consolatory words:

The following thrilling story we fine
in the San Bernardino Gal Semi Iropi.
Of recent issue: Last week J. w. Wilson
prospecting on the headwaters of the
White Water, some sixty miles from
here, for grass or stock-feed. He discov-
cred narrow valley, through which ran
a small stream. The valley was only
s. practicable of entrance by one path, that
by which he entered AS he rode along
he was delighted with the abundance of
rich, nutritious grass, which stood three
feet high, and meditated driving a herd
OF stock there soon, when he was rudely
called back to think of the present by a
start and snort from his 'burro" or
donkey. Looking back, he discovered,
to his horror, that some person had set
she grass on fire, and the flames were
pursuing him with fearful rapidity
Hastily spurrng to the stream, he
hsmounted, stripped the saddle from
he donkey and turned it loose. AS for
himself, he sprang into the creek, searched
nut the deepest place he could find in the
ew seconds that elapsed before the fire
vas upon him, and lay down. Unfortu-
ately the water was but a few inches in
epth, not nearly enough to cover him,
ut it was the only chance, and so he lay,
oping to escape, but fearing the worst.
\ / much less time than it takes to mar
tie this the fire was upon him. First
lrge flakes fell thick and fast around

alter to keep both sides wet But when
Ne fire was roaring and raging above

Scess. The fire scorched off all his hair

Mastery Letter on the
Question of Finance From
the Great RefOrmer.

CHARLES MCLEAN, President OF the State
Central Committee of the Independent
Greenback party:
DEAR SIR: The question of finance
seems to me one of the two or three
vital questions of the day. The solu-
ton of it means bread for the hungry
and safety for the capitalists. 1t is
with great difficulty that the work
ing class defends itself against the in
evitable greed and injustice of our
own capitalists, but when Europe
joins New York to rob labor and in
crease the heavy burdens of taxation,
the joint power becomes almost ire
sistible. Careless of everything but
their own gain and success, they sit
easy and content,
WHILE THOUSANDS sTARyE.
Blind and obstinate. as conservatism
has always shown itself, they push
their heartless policy so far and so re-
morselessly as to put in danger the
supremacy of law and the safety of
capital. Since. when driven to the
wall and crushed beyond endurance,
brute force always rises to dasa %
pieces IN its angry defence the foun-
datlon of civilization itself. 1t is a
sad and rash hour when, the Centen-
NAL boast. just ended. in one of the
largest. busiest. and richest of the
