Married In the Surf.

The Philadelphia Times says The
novel.reader Of the period readily can
understand why some young people
seek all sorts OF odd places in which to
get married. one ingenious writer of
fiction places his hero and heroine in
an old tower and let's them make love
to their hearts content another SCAT
tiers four Romeos among four Juliets
in an uulighted dungeon Of Il castle in
spain, while a third casts his most
in eresting characters upon raft at
sea, that they may take tie bitter
with the sweet Of their cOurtship, with
no one to modest them. II is no won
der that some susceptible lads and
lasSes get to be- sentimental in practice,
and, to come to the point of this para
graph, it is not unreasonable that Miss
Wiley and Mr. Barr should have decid-
ed to have their nupital ceremony per
formed in the surf at Ocean City These
lovers, both Of whom hail from St.
Louis, made up their minds that they
would be married thus, and SO Oh
Thursday they marched into the sea
together, standing in water TO the depth
Of I,. brides shoulders. The bathers
had withdrawn, ana the bridal party
had the beach to themselves.
a few friends stood at the edge Of the
white sand when the clergyman stepped
in and did his best to tie the knot in
Jack Tar style. The sky was bright,
TIE breeze was grateful and the waves
were just trisky enoLgh to lend zest to
this undertaking.. Indeed, the whole
occasion was pleasant, and nothing
narrpd it, save when Neptune, seeking
to kiss the bride, ducked her i'll as
bouncing a biIow as ever butieted a
mermaid. Perhaps the bride shed a
tear at the thought that she never
would have real rich wedding-dress
STOW away in calnphor, but, if so, the
pearly drop must have been counter
balanced by the laugh that ancaway
from her father boots when ht reflect
ed that he would have no miliiner''
bill 10 pay.

Our Natural city Park.

\ gentleman Oh Sunday Il week ago,
took a little stroll up the Brand y
wine about four o'clock in the after
moor, and his notice being attracted to
the large number Of people passing up
and down the race to the grove, re.
solved to sit down and count all who
passed by in fifteen minutes. Accord
ingly he took a seat on the Shute at Van
Buren, street, and with paper and PEN
ell, commenced to count. He counted
OF tor fifteen minutes and finding the
occupation pleasant as well as amusing,
counted on for fifteen minutes more.
a. the end of that time he footed up
his count, and was surprised to find
that in that half hour three hundred
and six persons passed, some up, some
down, not counting babies in coaches.
This only included those who passed
one given point.
If all others who visited the grove by
way Of Harrison, Franklin, Broome,
Rodney and Clayton street, had been
counted, the number would nc
doubt have been doubled. The gentle
man alluded to very sensibly argued
from this, that from NanBuren street up
to the new railroad is where the city
park should be located, Tie peo-
pie IA park is in ended H. benefit could
without much trouble reach that park
who you'd never think Of going all the
way out to park al MI Salem Church.
We heart y agree with the gentleman,
and though we favored the securing OF
the land offered gratui'ouSIy by TIE
MrsSrs. bancroft and which offer We
nov Understand has fallen through, we
can see Lo good reason why the park
commissioners should not enter INTO ar
Arrangement by which ihiS beautiful
| grove, alrtatya natural ptrk AMI which
modern Improvements could sea c"lI
improve, shall Nr secured fora pablo

The Man with the Ladder.

The Man with the Ladder.
The above Is the caption of an article
IN the New York Tribune warning the
Democracy against the willy trick cf
The man with the ladder. 1t inters
that no matter where the Democratic
Convention meets the man with the
ladder on his back ana who crept In
through a window and captured the
Worcester nomination for Governor
OF Massachusetts, is the most to be
feared. The Con vention might be- held
in indianapolis without any fear of
being captured by Mr.. Mcdonald, or
Hendricks or in Cincinnati, without
being carried off by Judge Hoady.
Senator Pendlcton or Ex-senator
Thurman or it might be held in Chi
cago without being kidnapped by John
NJ. Palmer, or Lyman Trumbull or in
Tammany Hall without being gobbled
up by Mr.. Tilden or John Kelly; or
in Independence Hall, Philadelphia,
without being pocketed by Samuel j..
Randall, William A. Wallace or Gov
ernor Pattison, OF if held in Whining
ton we do not believe that Senator
Bayard, Henry G. Turner or Judge
Cummins would make pocket piece
of it, but if held in either OF thesf
it is in danger of capture by the man
with the ladder.
This man. says the Tribune, scales
third story windows in the dead o
night he takes possession Of Conven
ton halls he is found in occupation
at the hour of meeting, and the frs
thing the party knows he sails ava,
with the nomination under his arm
In so quiet and law abiding State az
Massachusetts and in the very heart O
the commonwealth, he has done us
that thing within the past few years
He wanted the nomination for Cover
nor and he simply got a ladder an,
climbed into third-Story window OF
the Hall where the convention was Il
be held, between the hours Of three
and four in the morning, and took il
He was no. elected that year, hui
h.l hal M, ~ u
zion the party handed it over to him
without Il word, and he is now Cover
nor of Massachusetts. There is nc
doubt whatever that this man is a
candidate for the Democratic noinina
ton for the Presidency and though h,
may not be saying much aboutit now
he keeps the ladder handy and if thu
National Democratic Committee want
to hold convention unmoiesred b,
him they had better guard every ap
proach to the hall several days befor,
the convention meets.
1t would not be ami>s to have tn,
window-shutters iron plated, for Futile
means business when he goes for
nomination. He always carries :
ladder on his shoulder ard he has beer
making friends at a rapid rate, b,
mingling with the people of MaSsa
chusetts upon every fitting opportuni y
only turning around suddenly every
few minutes to see il anybody i
laughing at him. In affecting 10 de>pis
,his nan the Democracy should no
forget that he carries a ladder and h
will use il too whenever he can max
anything by it. Wherever the CONVEX
ton is held, it should he firmly tortiIie'
: against the man with the ladder, for i
would be exceedingly painful 10 see Nj

THE CONTRACTORS for building the
new railroad bridge over the Brandy
wine are having trouble with their
drillers and quarrymen. Yesterday
these workmen quit work because the
contractors refused to give Sl.75 a day
to lrillers and 81 5Oa day to quarry
men, but today its said they will return
to work at Sl.5O for drillers and Sl.25
for quarrymen. Our home Brandy
wine drillers and quarrymen who are
well acquainted with the nature OF the
Brandywine rock say that the contrac'
tors cannot stand it even ut the latter
figures. They pay their dril'ers two
cents an inch for every inch drilled
They can make fair wages at this price
without working very hard, and the
work done in day far eNcells the
amount of labor done by the day.

The shooting Of lDfOrn.er Carey

LONDON, August 1.-James Carey
was shot at o'clock on Sunday after
noon. The steamer Melro,e, on which
the shooting occurred, arrived at Port
Elizabeth at 2 O'clock on Monday after
noon. These facts seem to show that
lO'Donneli was outside of Colonial juris-
diction when he committed the crime,
and must be tried in England
The Press Association reports that
o. Donnell, before embarking for Africa,
boasted thai he had followed Mrs Carey
from Dublin.
Mr.. Parnell, speaking in London to-
day with reference to the shooting OF
Carey, said that the Irish should re-
ioice that the Justice denied by the
Government had at last been accom-
plished. 49,
PokT ELIZABETH, August 1.-The
Examination of ODunnell for the muir
der Of James Carey was resumed
to day. The eldest son Of Carey
deposed thai his father aud O'Donneil
had been on friendly terms throughout
the voyage, and that they had oft II
played cards.
The case was reman'led to enable tn"
prisoner To call the steward Of til
steamer MerOse AS a witness.
Mrs. Carey says that there was an
lrishman named EelIy, from Wexford,
on board the steamer kintaun's Castle,
and that her husband was suspicious Of
him
LONDON, Angus 1.-The steamer

are Michael KavanIgh, Joseph Han.an,

other men connected with the Irish
murder conspiracy, has arrived at

NEW YORK, August IA party OF
men, headed by band of music,

the young man who first tastes wine ct
such times may be thereby sent to a

spicable to offer fellow man beer or
WHISKY. Make 1t questionable to enter a
saloon, and we have the remedy. But are
we to stop altogether with moral suasion:
l answer certainly not. Itshould be taken
into the Les islation of our country. 1t Is
the duty Of the law to step in and arrest
these evils of intemperance.
We are told that law never produces vir-
tue. That may be true, but it maintains it.
When public opinion has been manu-
featured it sustains and fosters it.
The speaker spoke at length in favor of
the passage of an auxiliary law which
should assist temperance agitators to
frame public sentiment against the evils
of the traffic. He argued in favor of high
license rather than prohibition, although
he said he had not word to offer in OPP
position to prohibition, but invited
the prohibitionists to unite with
him upon the high license plat
form, make $500 the minimum price
of Hcense-$1, 900 would be better. 1t
would reduce the saloons more than one
half. He enumerated the laws upon the
statute books controlling the traffic, which
are daily violated by the saloon keepers,
and argued that public sentiment should
be wrought up as to see these laws strictly
enforced.

The Complimentary Resolution to KeIeI
Obtained Gy q Trick.

WASHINGTON, March II. = Keifer was
greatly concerned the last day or two of
the session because he learned that an effort
would be made to prevent the passage of
the customary resolution of compliment to
the speaker. He was as chagrined as q
man of his blunted sensibilities can be
when similar resolution failed last sum
mer, and he was determined not to quit the
speakers chair without this empty compIi-
'ment. Knowing the extreme good nature
of Blackburn, and relying upon some spe-
cial favors that he had done Blackburn,
Keifer asked the Kentucky statesman to
help him out, and Blackburn agreed
to do so. They cooked up the plan
which, aided by Blackburns arbitrary rul-
ing, passed the resolution. AS it was known
that Keifer's friends would be able to find
a Democrat somewhere in the house to Of
fer the complimentary resolution, it had
been resolved to meet it boldly on the
floor with a statement which would compel
Democrats either to oppose it or to be in
consistent. Gen. w. R. Cox, of North Car
DINA, was prepared to lead the opposition.
He had in his desk copy of the Record of
last session, and had turned down the leaf
of the page where stands recorded the pro-
test filed by 100 stalwarts against Keifer's
ruling when the change of rules was pro-
posed to break the deadlock on the election
cases. This protest declared Keifer's rul-
ing to be unjust, arbitrary
and revolutionary. 1t was well
known at the time that it was seri-
ously proposed to offer resolution of CEN
sure. When, on the last day of the session,
the complimentary resolution was offered,
Gen. Cox intended to oppose it and to have
the protest of last summer read. Then he
would have asked the 100 Demo-
Gratis how. in the face of that protest, they
could support a resolution complimenting
Keifer when they have denounced him and
placed their denunciation on record. Gen.
G X would have had plenty of support, and
the complimentary resolution would have
been tabled.
Thanks to the help of Blackburn and the
support of Randall the plan miscarried.
Usually just before the close of the session
the speaker leaves the chair for a few mo-
ments, calling to it member
of the minority. The resolution is
then offered, the speaker resumes the
chair, delivers his valedictory, and ad-
journs the house. This time, however,
early in the morning. session, at an hour
when very few Democrats were present, to
the surprise of all Keifer left the chair,
Blackburn took it, and Randall offered the
resolution. Blanchard objected, and his
objection was good, but Blackburn ruled
him off his feet. Blackburn afterward
confessed that it was an arbitrary ruling.
Randall said that the rule was restrained
by courtesy, and so the resolution went
through. Gen. Cox, who had gone to his
hotel after the all-night session for an
hours rest and breakfast, returned to find
that the opponents of the resolution were
outwitted. Keifer got his resolution only
by trick. Randall's friends claim that
his action is due to the fact that he
did not wish precedent of that kind es-
tablished.
