BARNABEE's HAPPY HIr.-Barnabee
the unsurpassed humorist of the Boston
Ideal Company, seems to be particularly
favored in his efforts TO entertain his
friends on all occasions. Last evening
when he was singing one of Bunthorne's
gems in "Patence," the piping voice of
an infant child was heard just about the
time when he was reaching the lines of his
part-"This is little thing of my own"
The interruption by the child created a
little audible ripple of amusement which
rapidly increased to the widest uproar of
merrment, when the quick witted Barnabec
skipped the lines before the words men
toned, and with comical expression and
gesture peculiar to himself, he waved his
hand gracefully to the cherub in the gallery
and said: That is a little thing of my
own" 1t was several moments before the
audience was Quieted, and at intervals
ladies and gentlemen burst into n hearty
laugh which became general again as
soon as Barnabee added the lines of the
part-"but won't publish it, Nothing
funnier has ever occurred in the opera
house, and many laughed until they
suffered The father, mother and child
looked inquringly about. not having heard
the words of Bunthorne, and they had no
idea of the fact that they invountarily
assisted in making a very pat hit for Mr..
Barnabce. .-Utica Observer.

How RUSSIAN GIRLS ARE CoURTED.--
Love is the same the world over, but
"courting" is managed very differently in
different countries. Russian courtIng,
among the middle classes, is peculiar.
The first Whitsunday after the young girl
is acknowledged by her mother to be of
marriageable years, she IS taken to the Pc
tersburg summer garden to .iointhe "brldal
promenade" This consists of the daugh.
ters of the russian tradesmen walking in
procession, followed by their parents. Up
and down they 60, pretending to chat
with each other and to take no notice of
the young men-the tradesmen's sons
dressed in their best clothes-who walk
in another procession on the other side.
However, every now and then some young
fellow slips out of his proper rank and
adds himself to the line Of girls on the
other side, speaking to one particularly.
The pal ents of the girl join in the conver-
sation in 4 few moments, and soon they
leave the promenade and are joined by
the parents of the young man. Generally,
the old folks have talked it well over before,
but on this occasion every one pretends to
be surprised. On the next day female
contidantc calls on the girls parents and
requests her hand This granted, all the
relation on both sides meet and argue
about the portion to be given with the
girl If this is not satisfactory, all is at
an end; if it is what is expected, the
betrothal takes place.
The bride and bridegroom kneel down
upon great fur mat, and the bride takes
a ring from her finger and gives it to the
bridegroom. who returns the gift by
another The brides mother meanwhile
crumbles a piece of bread over her daugh-
ter's head. and her father folds the image
of his daughters patron saint over his
future son in laws well brushed locks.
AS they arise the bridesmaids sing we'd
ding song. The guests each bring forward
Il present of some sort. Wine is handed
about, and some one says it is bitter and
needs sweetenng. Upon this the bride
groom kisses the bride-thc sweetness
being supposed to be provided by this
kiss-salutes the company and takes his
leave, on which the bridesmaids sing
song with chorus something like this ::

running mate he could drive we'll actioned
trotter IN 2.04 or less. Robert Bonner said
these performances Of horses to a running
mate really proved nothing as to their actual
speed. Their time simply depends on the
speed OF the running mate. They are 81
hitched up by bands that they are carried
along in spite Of the ---, and If they
were put to d locomotive in the same way
they would keep up with It.
