A Romance and Marriage.
washington star.I


Last evening the neat little Grace
Episcopal Church, South Washington,
was filed TO overlooking TO witness the
wedding Of Peter McCalmon, of the
province of Manitoba, and Miss Lizzie
A. Gabriel, of this city. There is little
romance connected with these parties.
The groom lives in Manitoba, where the
bride has married sister living.
Through the sister he, about four years
ago, heard OF Miss Gabriel and cores
pondence was commenced, during which,
Notwithstanding they had never seen
each other, their feelings toward each
other became more than simply friendly.
Portraits were exchanged and minute
descriptions were given OF each other.
The result was that q few months ago
they became engaged to be married on
condition that there was no change
of feeling after personal inter
view. The time for the nuptials was
fixed for September or October. The
young lady in the mean time made prep.
arations to take leave OF absence. The
groom about the first Of the month ar
rived here, being desirous of seeing the
lady. He wrote note to her, which
she failed to receive until Monday of
last week, when she promptly sent him
the directions TO find her place of resi-
dence on Missouri avenue, and he called
that evening. The chains Of love were
more firmly rivcted at this meeting. The
young lady's friends were highly pleased
with the gentleman. The result was
that they concluded that it vas useless
to wait longer, and preparations were at
once made for the wedding, which took
place last evening. The bride did not
forget her late associates, for she invited
nearly all the employees Of the Bureau OF
Engraving and Printing.

An Essay on Eyes.
IDurtlottc In Argonaut.l

"The eye" says Button, sis the great
exponent OF character" Button Is cor
rect. When a blue eye is encircled hall
way down tho cheeks with q ring oi
ebon hue, pulled up like new-laid muf-
fin, It is an Indication that the character
OF the man who owns that eye, and who
would give ten dollars II he could see
with 1t, is no purer than the eye. And
whom the eyes arered as to dropping lids,
and prolific in Unconditional tears, and
have general Observation-Disclosures
preston, II is q sign that they see
through glass lightly about once every
fifteen minutes, and that they keep open
as long as the mans mouth does. To
sec both eyes shut and the mouth wide
open, is sign that life's short dream is
snore. When mans eyes try to look
at each other over the top Of his nose,
IL is sign that he has to have his
spectacles cut bias. Dancing eyes
are, of course, indications of eye
balls. A fondness for greens is
Indicated by browse. A cross eye lens
an Xtra expression Of benevolence TO the
/, thus giving II Blk appearance. Cy
Spectacles have miraculous power, en-
abling man to see with his mica, or
eyes In glass, as you please. "A nigh
for an eye" was probably written OF near
sighted men. A blind man is apt to be
magnanimous. as he always hits man
Of his eyes. The eye appears to be one
solid globe, but it is built in tears. But
you bet it has the nerve.
