the Heights. The chimes of St. AIMS
rang wedding melodies while the
throng was moving into church. The
church was in gay dress. Siiken stand
ards, banners and gonfalons, painted
and gilded, hung from the gallaries.
The Christmas greens remained about
the altar, and the pillars were trim
med with fresh cut flowers and the
fragrance of a flower garden filed the
interior of the building. A SON Of
Senator Pendleton was one Of the
ushers. The wI.ite-rob 4 bishops.
Doane of Albany. and Littleiohn, of
Brooklyn, and the assistant pastor of
st. Ann'sappeared in the chancel and
took seats. The wedding party enter
ed the church just as the bells in the
tower struck noon. True to the Eng>
lish style Of wedding now popular
among EplscOpalians, the groom was
not with the bridal party. but he
stepped out of the rector's room lust
as the bridesmaids white boDnets
appeared at the door. Walking for

groomsman, Horatio Seymour. Jr.. he
met his bride as she neared the altar.
"
They We're dressed in white. in uni
form style. wearing white lace trim
med bonnets and each carrying a red
rose. AS the organ played the wed-
ding music from "LOhengrin." the
maidens, first getting the proper step,
moved forward III a beautiful process
sion through the aisle. They were
preceded by the four ushers Then
followed the Rev. Noah Hunt Schenck
and his daughter. the bride. She was
dressed in white brOcade satin, over
which hung from the sparkling dia-
mOnd tiara on her head down to her
sBtin slippers a tulle veil. fastened
With diamonds and orange flowers.
At the altar the bridesmaids were
grooped on one side and the grooms-
men gathered about near the bride
groom. Mr.. Corning, stepping for
ward, took his bride by the hand and
both knelt by the altar. Bishop
Doane conducted the ceremy. Bishop
Littlejohn uttering the devotions.

Exclusive Use Of Mineral Ma

enthusiastic advocates of this fer. .il,zer
recommended it as so much better

The Horld, a society" paper, edi-
ted OF Edmund Yates, the novelist.
publishes the following item
THE Prince of Wales and DR..
Lyon Ilayfalr were standing near
caldron containing lead which WA
boiling at white heat. Has your
Royal Hlghne6s any faith in science =
sald the Doctor. Certainly replied
the Prince. VIII YOU, then, place
your hand IN the boiling metal and
ladle cut a portion Of it: DO you
tell me ID do this asked the Prince.
i do, replied the Doctor. The Prince
then lafied out some Of the boiling
lead with his hand, without sustaining
any INJURY. Ii Is a well known scien-
tito fact that that the human hand
may be placed unlnJured in lead boil
ing at white heat. being protected
from any harm by the moisture of the
SKIN. Should the lead be at a percent
IDLY lower temperature the effecs need
not be described. After this let no
one underrate the courage II the
Prince Of w aies.'
As ii matter Of fact the Prince
courage has been found on fnany &C
caslons, and notably when during a
great fite he, at the peril of his own
life, saved the lives Of several other
persons. Gov. Letcher told me that
the Prince impressed him as " a kind
hearted young man." and this Is ex-
actly what be Is. He Is neither a fool
nor a roue, but a man of easy tenper,
fon of a Joke. and disposed to look
on the bright side Of life. 1t Is rather
more difficult for Princes TO be always
cheerful in these days than IL used to
be. There are 50 many arduous pub

How BOggs Ran for Office.

Bogas was as p~eaceable a mar az
ever lived.
He was sober, honest and respected.
He had never pounded his vile.
Never took any interest in a dog
fight.
Had mover been known to pawn
somebody else's watch.
And never had attempted TO steal
a saw~mill.
Bogg's character was above re-
proacll.
lie was a shining light in society.
All Bcggsville looked up to and
honored him.
But a change came, a fearful, dire
full change.
In an cyl hour Bogg accepted the
romination for Constable OF his
native village.
Al 5. Poor Boggs.
Little Gid he understand the deceit
and ~treachery of the wicked world.
His eyes were soon opened, how>
ever.
In less then a week after he was
nominated the opposition had fully
and conclusively established the fol-
lowing damaging charges against his
character:
l. That he was a free lover and an
infdel,
,. That he had fed his neighbor's
hens on poisoned corn.
;. That he bad broken his mother
in-law's jaw with an iron boot jack.
f.. That he had on occasion gave
a whole wagon load Of green water
m Ions to an orphan asylum.
) That he had served a term in the
State prison for horse stealing.
g.. That he had set fire to his neigh
boris barn. merely because he refused
to lend him hoe.
:. That because he found a button
off his shirt. he tied his wife to the
bed-post, and mashed In three of her
ribs with the stove poker.
s.. That his chief Sunday amusements
were cock fighting and card playing.
8. That be sold his vote every year
regularly to the highest bidder.
10. That he wasn't fit for the place
anyhow.
These charges. although without the
81 ghtest foundation, We're religiouSly
believed by the majority of the voters
Of B~oggsvi'le.
And Bogss' political goose was
cooked.

not worth three cents OF the dollar.
When Boggs passed along the street
his neighbors looked at him with Sis
picion aud crossed over Oh the other
side
Boggs was a miserable beng.
The Gay of tom meeting came at
last, AMI Boggs' opponent scooped in
the Constableship by a two-thirds
vote.
The anti Boges party swept their
candidate into office 90 the tidal wave
Of popularity. and poor Boggs was
left perched higd up N the spike
mounted picket fence of despair.
BoggS will never III Tor office
again, not even for President.
He says it is too great a strain on
the character.
If he can regain the esteem of his
neighbors by grumbiing along in the
old way he intends TO do it. and leave
office seeking to people of cast iron
reputation.
Boggs is just coming to his senses.
