SuperstltiOnS About Marriage.

That MAY. with us, is not month for
marrying, may easily be seen any year
grom the list Of weddings in the Times
newspaper, the proper belief being sum
med M in the familiar proverb, Marry
in MAY aud you will rue the day Some
of the numerous reasons assigned for the
ill.luck attaching to this month are the
following. That women dlsobeyng the
mile would be childless; o., if they had
children, that the first,born would be an
ijiot or have some physical deformliy;
ny that the married couple would not
live happily together in their new life,
hrt sOou become weary OF each other
society-superstitions which still retain
thair hold throughout the country. In
snite. however, of this absurd prejudice,
Il seems that, in days gone by, May was
Lopored in feudal England as the month
of all months especially congenial to
lovers.

Not Down In the Bills.

There was little scene at the Casino.
in New York, TO the Rochnmbeaus and
Won Steubens, that was not down on the
bills, and which has given no end of
food for gossip. The committee of ar
rangements had picked out certain lQ.
dies prominent in New York society to
accompany the foreign guests to the sup
per-room. After manner of gentlemen at
balls, the foreigners fitted about from
lady to lady. staying longest with
those they found most agreeable.
1t so happened, Just at supper time,
General Won Steuben was engaged in
animated conversation with one of the
best known ladies III New York. As she
spoke German almost as well as he did,
he felt very much Mt ease i'll her society,
and vowed that he had never met a more
entertaining woman. He offered her his
arm and escorted her to the supper-room.
When he reached the door, and was in
the very act of conducting his partner to
the table, what was his astonlshment to
see the foOr-manager making violent
gesticuIatiOns ut the lady on his arm.
The baron stared, and the lady smiled
and went on with her chat still advancing,
The committee. then stepped up,
and told her in choice English that she
was not the lady selected to accompany
the baron to the supper-room, and that
she must retire in favor of the rightful
one. With eyes flashing and in indig
nant tones, she told the baron in Ger
man that she was being ordered out of
the room, and that the committee had
selected some other lady for the honor
OF his arm. Dunder and Bitten Here
was an insult. Baron Steuben's right
hand instinctively clutched his sword
hilt. Was not this lady the wife of an
ex'minister to Germany and to France?
and to whom more rightly did his at
tentlon belong? All his gallantry and
patriotism rose. Strengthening himself
up to his full height, drawing her arm
more firmly through his, he turned his
back on the supper-room and N the ball.
II such thing had happened in Ger.
many, he said to friend, he would have
drawn his sword and run the otlicious
floor. manager through.
