THE BRIDE AND THE PREMIER.
The bridegroom. attended by his ''best
man." Lord Darlington, arrived in the
church at halfpast eleven and few
minutes later the audience rose as the
bride entered, leaning on the arm of
Benjamin Disraeli. Earl Beaconsfield and
Premier Of England. His Lordship looked
haggard and anxious as he advanced over
the carpet Of odorous primroses down the
aisle, dreaming. maybe, Of the latest move
on the Eastern chessboard with the Greek
pawn, or perhaps reverting mentally to
the passages in 'Coningsby" referring to
the power and influence Of the Hebrew
race-"the other and more terrestrial con-
siderations that made Sidonia proud of his
| origin and confident in the future Of his
kind" Disraeli was nm Earl, but he was
/ going back to the time he wrote that ian
! unmixed race of first rate organization are
from the ancient faith and now was leading
Hebrew maiden to the altar that would
separate her and her descendants from the
ancient race, but he must have pondered over
the children of Israel and "those mixed
races who presume to prosecute them, but
who periodically disappear, while their VIC
Tins still flourish in all the primeval vigor of
the Asian breed" All this was penned nearly
forty long years ago, when the author had
dreams and ambitions but little more.
Time has changed his standpoint, and in
the almost reverent admiration with which
he is greeted as he walks slowly toward the
communion rail he has his compensations.
There, waiting for the beauteous girl lean
ing lightly upon his arm, stands an Earl to
whom he might almost apply what he wrote
for his ideal Jew, Sidonia.

orange blossoms alternating with hounces,

white swansdown, of the period of George
III. Each bore white bouquet
