State Dinners at the White House.

AT state dinners and other ceremoni-
Gus occasions here there is the strict
est observance of the rules of official
etiquette as regards the order of prec-
edence. The Secretary of State and
his wife rank next the President and
his wife when the Vice-President is I'M
married. As Vice-President Wheeler
is widower, the two ladies of highest
rank among the guests at the dinner
table on the Goth were the wife of the
Secretary of State and the wife of the
senior Justice OF the United States SUI
preme Court; so these two ladies sat on
either side of the President, the most
honorable position at the table for
ladies. The two gentlemen of highest
rank were the Vice-President and Sec
rotary Evarts; so the former sat on Mrs.
Hayes right and the latter on her left
She went to the table with the former
To avoid confusion small envelope
is handed every gentleman when he
enters the cloak-room before dinner
on these occasions. In this are two
cards. One has diagram of the table,
with his own name and that of the lady
he will escort to dinner, written oppo-
site the numbers of the seats they are
to occupy. On the other card is the
name Of the lady he is to escort. .-
There is always little excitement
about opening these envelopes, of the
same description as the tremor of eX-
pectation which seizes one on opening
a prize-package. And well there may
be, for three hours is the usual duration
of White House state dinner, and to
be bored for three hours is no joke, and

THE FUTURE LIFE.


BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.
How shall know thee in the sphere which keeps
The disembodied spirits of the dead,
When all of thee that time could wither sleeps
And perishes among the dust we tread.
For shall feel the sting of ceaseless pain
IL there | meet thy gentle presence not;
Nor hear the voice l love, nor read again
In thy serenest eyes the tender thought.
Will not thy own meek heart demand me there?
That heart whose fondest throbs to me were
given?
MY maine on earth was ever in thy prayer,
Shall it be banished from thy tongue in
Heaven?
In meadows famed by Heavens life-breathing
wind
In the resplendence of that glorious sphere,
And larger movements of the unfettered mind,
Wilt thou forget the love that Joined us here?
The love that lived through all the stormy past
And meekly with my harsher nature bore,
And deeper grew and tenderer to the last,
Shall it expire with life and be no more!
A happier lot than mine. and larger light.
Await thee there; for thou hast bowed thy will
In cheerful homage to the rule of right,
And lowest all, and renderest good for i'll.
For me, the sordid cares in which dwell
Shrink and consume my heart, as heat the
scroll:
And wrath hath left its scar-that fire of hell
Has left its frightful scar upon my soul.
Yet. though thou wear st the glory of the sky,
Wilt thou not keep the same beloved name.
The same fair. thoughtful brow, and gentle eye,
Loyelier in Heavens sweet cline and yet the
same!
Shalt thou not teach me, in that calmer home,
The wisdom that learned so ill in this
The wisdom which is love-till become
Thy fit companion in that land of bliss?

Japanese Miracle Workers.

Among the arrivals yesterday on the
steamship City of Peking were two
priests from the interior of Japan,
claiming to be endowed with miracu-
lous power. They are on their way to
the Paris Exposition with a party of
their countrymen, conducted by two
English gentlemen who have for sever
al years resided in Japan. A reporter
interviewed these gentlemen last even
ing. They told him that the priests are
religious enthusiasts, who profess,
through the power of faith and by the
medium of prayer, to be enabled to do
the most remarkable things-such as
are recorded in the Christian Gospels
as in the power of the followers of
Jesus-referring to those passages
which speak of their being able to re-
move mountains and to swallow deadly
poisons without harm. One of the mi
raculous things that these priests are
able to do is to walk with naked feet
over the edges of swords ground to the
keenness of razor, and also over q
bed of live Goals. They never attempt
this without formal and fervent APP
peal to their divinity for protection,
and they assert most positively that it
would be impossible for them to per-
form the works they do Without divine
interference in their behalf. They in
tend to exhibit their remarkable pow
ers in Paris during their stay, and will
challenge the devotees Of the Christian
or any other faith to do the things that
they do. In answer to an inquiry
whether they would exhibit their pow
ers in this country, the gentlemen said
that such was not their intention. San
Francisco Post.

GRIPS GARRETT DAY.

Grip was having dismal-a very
dismal-time of it. Grip was eleven, it
was his birthday, and Grip was in dis
grace-in garnet.
WASH it dreadful?
1t happened thus: Grips father was
a shoemaker. The bench where he
worked and the little bit of shop, about
eight feet every way, in which he
worked, stood on a street leading down
to the town dock, and the name of the
town we will say was Barkhampstead,
on Cape Cod Bay.
Now and then-that is, once or twice
in the year-a whaling vessel set sail
from the dock, and sometimes, not al
ways, the same vessels returned to the
dock.
The going and the coming of a
"whaler' made Grips father, Mr..
John Allen, glad. 1t was his busy sea-
son, for when the seamen went they al
ways wanted stout new boots and shoes,
and when they came they always needed
new coverings on their feet to 90 home
in.
Two years before this dismal time
that Grip was having, the ship "Sweet
Home went away, and it had not been
spoken or signaled or heard from in any
way, since four months from the time
it left the dock at Barkhampstead
The fathers and mothers and wives
and little children of the men who went
in the "Sweet Home" kept on hoping,
and fearing, and feeling terribly bad
about everybody on board whom they
loved, when, without any warning
whatever, right in the midst of a raging
snow-storm, the 'Sweet Home" all
covered in ice from masthead to prov,
sailed, stiff and cold, into Barkhamp-
stead harbor.
Oh, wasn't there great gladness over
all the old town then! They rang the
Westinghouse bell 1t was a hoarse,
creaking old bell, but there was music
in it that time, as it throbbed against
the falling snow, and made most de-
licious concert of JOY and gratitude in
every house within mile and more of
| the dock
Mr. John Allen rushed down to the
"Sweet Home" as soon as ever it came
in. He hadn't anybody on board to
he did rub his hands together as he
went, letting the snow gather fast on
his long beard, as he thought of the
thirty or forty pairs of feet that must
have shoes!
Grip, you know, was to be eleven the
next day, and his mother, in the big
red house next door to the little shop,
had made him a cake for the day, and
besides, plum-pudding was to be fol
dinner.
Before Grips father had gone down
to the dock he had said to Grip: "Now
you must stay right here in the shop
and not go near the dock until | come
back" and Grip had said Eyes, SIR
although every bit of his throbbing boy
body wanted to take itself off to the
"Sweet Home.''
The snow kept on falling, and it be
gan to grow dark in the little shop
Grip had just lighted candle, wher
the shop-door opened, and boy mo-
much bigger than Grip himself came il
and shut the door behind him.
Grip jumped up from the bench anC
said
What -"
"You don't know me, Grip Allen?'
said the boy.
"Who be you?" questioned Grip.
"Don't wonder" said the other, $50
we've all come out of the jaws of ic
and death. I'm 10 JAY"
"Jo Jay-looking sor' said Grip.

A God Example of 'sCheek. :"

Cheek! Why, that's no name for it.
He was IN itinerant yender of lamp
burners, his one, and he generally
gained his end wherever he was per-
mitted to enter house. Yesterday,
while traveing about the city, he wan
dered into ahOuse in the southern part
oftown, whe'e sorrow evidently reigned.
The lamp nan, finding the door open,
walked rightin, and there found poor
woman in tears, with friend or two
trying to console her for the loss of her
husband, who lay dead in the same room.
Can sell YOU my new patent lamp
burner, ma amE' said the vender.
"No, sir" replied the woman, be-
tween her sobs. | don't wish anything
of the kind" . -. -

can't keep back these tears. Oh, ma am,
if you only knew what a great consola-
ton these patent lamp-burners of mine
are, on such occasions as these, you
would not be without one a single min
ute. Why, ma am, put one of these in
his hand and it would light him through
all the darknesses he has to pass through
without any trouble, and when you come
to die he could hold the lamp for you
when you go to ascend the golden
stairs"
And that precious scoundrel kept on
in that strain until he had sold half q
dozen to every female in the room.

recently lost his wife, was asked at II
dinner-table by guest unaware of the
fact: doctor, did you bring your

the doctor, unwilling to embarrass his
