How Oscar Got Married.

A4OiliO 4iulu-I
Nellie went to see Oscar Wilde's wedding,
and was immensely amused, on arriving at
the church est. James's Sussex gardeus,, to
find that the bridegroom had given orders
that none should be admitted unless they
had his card. OF course, it was quite right
that a certain portion of the church should
be set apart at weddings for the friends of
the bride and bridegroom; but for a man to
issue commands as to who shall, and who
shall not. be admitted to a public place of
worship is a little too ridiculous. Nellie got
in, however, Notwithstanding her being uu.
provided with Mr.. Oscar Wilde's visiting
card. She says the brides dress was pretty,
chiefly on account of its perfect simplicity.
Her veil was peculiar, being of gauze OF
open-meshed spun silk, or something unusual.
Tho bridesmaids harmonies OF terra-cotta
and primrose were spoiled by white hats and
feathers. Nellie says it was the funniest
thing in the world to see the contracting par
ties and the best man posing in studied atti-
tudes during the ceremony. Fancy n man
being married with his head on one side, like
q "tired" lily, his hand on his hip, and his
legs disposed according to a preconcerted ar.
rangement. The bridesmaids carried lovely
lilies. Lady Wilde "snatched" her new daugh-
ter to ber heart with some ~effusion, and tue
bridegroom kissed the bride with much
calmth and coolth in the presence of a some

cincinnati Enquirer.l
Most amusement enterprises in the past
few years have at least one good story-writer
connected with them. Before the season
opens he writes up half a dozen or more
startling items OF a nature to interest The
general public, and of various lengths, al
ways taking care to mention the name of
the show several times in the course of tho
article. In the case of a theatrical troupe he
will describe n robbery of jewels, the pun
ishment of a dude who has insulted one Of
the lady members, etc, or II the concern to
be advertised is a circus, a lion will escape
and be recaptured after extraordinary exer-
tions; a canvas man turns out to be a British
nobleman in disguise, or the elephants will
fight, as in a clipping before us.
When these articles are written up they
are carried to any printing office and printed
on soft paper in the general style of u news
paper column. A column OF market reports
is printed on the back OF this slip, and when
its edges are scissored in a careless, zig-zag
style, the finished work has oil the appear
ance of n truthful article clipped from a
legitimate newspaper. Every printing office
in the city has done more or less OF this work.
Tn advance agent Of the show Is well sup
piled with these bogus clippings, aud takes
care to leave one of them with every amuSe-
ment editor in the town which he is work
ing. The consequence is the article is widely
copied; that sort of matter is eagerly read,
and the readers flock to the show, in order to
see the lion that escaped, the pugnacious ele-
plants, or the insulted leading lady.

The Original Pat maIIoy.

Pat MalIoy, the man who drove the first
spike on the Louisville & Nashville railroad,
along in the early SOS, was found dead in
his bed at his home on Eleventh
street. near Maple, and until recently
he was not recognized as the historic Pat
Malloy, OF which the world has heard so
much. Mr.. Malloy came from Ireland and
arrived in Louisville by steamer in 1850, and
made his living by hard labor. He was the
first maj to stick a spade into the big hill
where the corners of Ninth and Broadway
now are, and it is known that he was the
first man to AIRY n guage on the construc-
ton of what is now one of the greatest rail-
roads in the world.
His disposition was one OF the most jovial
kind; and he was always ready with an end
less variety of wit, consequently his popu-
larity was unlimited. He gloried in being an
lrishinan all over, and was never known to
grurt about his work. Following close upon
tho war Col. Rowland ordered that Pat
Malloy be brought in Off the hot road bed
and located ut an easier and more COM
Portable place in the freight-handling depart
'nent, and this place he has held uninterrup
tedly since then. Charley Ward, the late
lamented song-writer and composer, some
years ago made n humorous Irish song
entitled "Pat Malloy,S in honor of this man,
and everybody knows what an unqualified
success it was. Deceased having died sud.
denly, Coroner Miller was called, and found
that death was caused by apoplexy. The
funeral was attended by about 1900 of our
best Irish citizens and innumerable citizens
of other nntionalitins-

want. to See Him by Daylight.

IDVoNOH LhUN ct NI5sIsI
A society belle, who usually goes TO the
North Shore for the summer, but this year
takes a holder flight, remarked the other
evening to her confidential friend: Il am
glad Mr.. Y. is to be at Mount Desert where
we are this summer. Do you know, I've
been acquainted with him for three years,
and never saw him by daylight. He used
to come over from the hotel evenings, and
then in the city / met him at parties, and
called in the evening, and positively I've
known him pretty well for all that time, and
never saw him except by gaslight. / must
see him in the daytime, for I've about made
up my mind to marry him, and it is best to
examine him in all lights" However absurd
this may seem on the face of 1t, it is a matter
of fact strictly true, both the lady and the
gentleman being pretty well known in
fashionable circles in the city.

SEA BATHING IN SEASON.
h CHIEF Source of administrations
to the Delicate.
[Dr. Coon in Harper's Weekly


[Dr. Coon in Harper's weekly.l
Sea bathing is not a cure-all, yet there are
few classes OF people to whom it may not
bring some benefit For delicate constitu-
lions and for many of the complaints of de.
bility, sea bathing is q powerful tonic; it Is
medicinal for many invalids. OF the many
persons who are in need of a tonic and
strengthening treatment, there are but few
who will not derive benefit from sea bathing,
provided only that they will make haste
slowly and bear in mind the necessary pre-
cautions.
The question of the sea temperature is an
important one for a safe beginning. The
water must be warm enough. A chief
source OF benefit in sea or river bathing Is
indeed the GOODNESS of the temperature and
the consequent healthy glow of warmth
caused by the rushing of blood to the skin
on leaving the water, and the stimulating in
fuence upon the yieisera. But all this is too
active treatment for the invalid at the begin
ming. One must be educated up to the toler-
ance Of the cold bath
At some of the French seaside resorts, and
recently at some of our own, as at Marble
head, the excellent plan is followed of giving
preparatory baths OF warm sea water in
doors. It is a good beginning for some very
delicate women, who find even the summer
heat Of the Mediterranean as degrees to 50
degrees F~ahrenheip too cool at the outset
But whenever this initiation is prncticed it
should not DO a long one. The artificial
warmth of the bath should be lessened day
by day, until after a moderate timo it is re-
duced nearly to that of the sea, and the pa
tient is proven strong enough to cultivate u
more intimate and invigorating acquaint-
ance with old ocean himself.
For this purpose a calm, warm, and sunny
day should be chosen; n windy day should be
particularly avoided, for the evaporation
from the clothes and the boiy is then so rapid
as to chill the bather both ON entering and
leaving the water. Never go into a cold bath
when you feel cold. This well applies to all
bathers, whether strong or delicate. To
make it effective, it is desirable TO lose no
time, after beginning to undress, in getting
into the water. The best time of the day is
two or three hours after eating, and pro-
ferably in the afternoon. 1t may be borne
in mind that the beach and the waves them
selves are generally cleaner during the ebb
tide than during the flood, and it is desirable
that the air should be warm as well as the
sea. Tho sun being well out, the first bath
from the beach may be taken, and it should
be a very brief one, lasting no longer than is
necessary to wet the body from head to foot
On leaving the water the bather should strip
and be rubbed dry, and this Immediately.
INDECENT bathers run more risk by lingering
and shivering in their wet clothes than from
any amount of swimming.

AS TO TARIFF.
Knowing full well, however, that legis-
lation affecting the erruptions of the peo-
pie should be cautious and conservative in
method, not in advance of public opinion
but responsive to its demands, the Demo
cratic party is pledged to revise the tariff
in a spirit of fairness to all interests. But
in making reduction in taxes it is not pro-
posed to injure any domestic industries,
but rather promote their healthy growth.
From the
FOUNDATION OF THIS GOVERNMENT,
taxes collected at the Custom House have
been the chief source of Federal revenue;
such they must continue to be. More
over, many industries have come to rely
upon legislation for successful continuance,
so that any change of law must be at
every step regardful of the labor and
capital thus involved. The process of re-
form must be subject in the execution to
this plain dictate of Justice. All taxation
shall be limited to the requirements of
economical government. The necessary
reduction in taxation can and must be
effected without depriving Americas
labor of the ability to compete successfully
with foreign labor, and without imposing
lower rates of duty than will be ample to
cover any increased cost of production
which may exist in consequence of the
higher rate Of wages prevailing in this
country.
SUFFICIENT REVENUE TO PAY
ali expenses of the Federal government
economically administered, including pen
sions, interest and principal of the public
debt, can be got under our present sys-
TEN Of taxation from custom house taxes
on fewer imported articles, bearing
heaviest on articles of luxury and
bearing lightest on articles of necessity.
We, therefore, denounce the abuses of
the existing tariff and, subject to the pre-
ceding limitations, we demand that Fed
eral taxation shall be exclusively for pub.
lie purposes and shall not exceed the
needs of the government economically ad-
ministered.
INTERNAL REVENUE TAXES.
The system of direct taxation, known
as the internal revenue" is n wal tax,
and so long as the law continues the
money derived theretrom should be sa-
credly devoted t the relief of the people
from the remaining burdens of the war,
and be made a fnnd to defray the ex-
pense Of the care aud comfort of worthy
