After Forty Years COurtship.

From the Lewiston One } Journal, June Z.
The history OF the troubles of a couple who
were married last week in village near Lewis
ton, has something in it which most emphati-
caly illustrates the truth of the old adage that
the course of true love never runs smooth. The
bride was lady Of sixty-foury years, whose hair
is silver, and the groom few years her senior.
Their cOurtship has extended over a period of
forty-siX years. A Lewiston gentleman who
is acquainted with the bride says that when
she was eighteen years old she fell in love with
her present husband, and made her prepare
tions to marry her nineteenth birthday.
Her father had died when She was a little girl,
leaving an invalid mother, with no one 10 de-
When the old lady heard OF the intended mar
riage she put her foot right down upon the
matter, and said she should not Wed Her
mother was firm in her purpose and all efforts
10 bring about reconciliation were unavaii-
ing. Time wore on, and the two lovers kept
up secret correspondence with each other.
Neither of them married. Not many months
ago the mother died, and now the wedding
bells are ringing and the couple are enjoying
honeymoon which has been deferred for nearly
half century.

Gentiles on Normons,

HOW THE LATTER DAY SAINTS ARE LIKELY TO
RECEIVE THE EDMUNDs LAW.
telegram to the New York Herald from
Salt Lake City, Utah, juno Is, says: The
only doubt that leading gentiles have as to the
efficacy of the Edmunds bill as amended by the
House committee is in regard to the test oath
clause, the text of which has not reached here.
Ii that be sufficient, they state it will settle the
question. The MOrmons will have to give up
political control and the territory be placed in
accord with the rest of the country in a legal
sense; while the gentiles count upon having an
enlightened government, having the officials
and police who will protect the life and pro-
perty of all citizens; having Tree schools and
other Improvements necessary to the interests
Oh the territory. They believe it will still be a
long and tedious process to get the Mormon
p puGp'e free 20 oroush into line with
the fact that the masses are foreign
ers unacquafnted with the English language or
Literature ana stepped in the superstition OF the
church, besides others of mature years, who
have never been out of the territory and under
stand as little of republican Institutions as do
the foreigners. Those prosecuted for poIyIsamy
are regarded as martyrs. and they believe God
will eventually interfere for their triumph.
THE RESULT OF THE LAW.
When power is taken away from the leaders
wave ofinidelity will probably sweep over
the territory. The faith OF the people will have
received severe blow, and n reaction will set
In. They Will realize the TACT that this is Il free
country, and that they will be freed from the
OnercuS sovereignty OF the church. There NAV
be some acts of Violence but the general belief
Is that Their attitude will be that OF the sullen
aspect of a conquered province. They viii
have to be treated with the utmost patience
generosity and fairness, until the rising gene
ration grows up and adopts the tree methods of
civilizng government. Hope is ex.
pressed that Senator Blair's bill for a
female industrial institution will pass
as 1t would make a refuge for poiyg-
amOus wives and give young girls a chance Tor
necessary education. The gentiIes claim that
they are governed solely by feeling of COM
ridden race, who can never rise to the full dig
NIFTY OF American citizenship until the pending
legislation Is enacted and goes into force.

The Food the Fathers Ate.


The people Of the last generation, DIR. Hodges
says; "knew nothing of luxury; they had the
reg lar and solid meals at noOntime, which are
said to be the foundation of the stability of
character. and they enjoyed at least nine hours
of sleep every day." How happy, indeed, are
the men and women who are able to look back
upon such a state of life, and how unhappy by
contrast are those who remember q different
state OF things as the practice OF the older gen.
eratiOns and suffer in their own lives its effects!
To these uniOrtunates the tables of their
fathers and mothers appear in their recollcc-
ton burdened with unwholeSome and
scarcely nOurishing dishes. The chief dish
there is one of sailed pork whose contents have
been shriveled i'll the greasy frying pan into
indigestlble scraps. There are potatoes, most
frequently fried in the same grease as the pork
or else boiled their starchy substance is ex-
pected TO be the chief feature OF the meal
There Is not bread, made OF q poor quality of
wheat flour, which has been carefully deprived
in the milling OF its most nutritious properties
There is butter, which is generally good. There
are fried appies-not nourishing. There is tea,
which has boiled long and long, its stewed
leaves surging round and round in the teapot
preparatory to being poured out in black masses
into cups for drinking. And, to crown the
feast, there is dried apple pie! This is the reg
ular meal that some mature people remember
though at intervals, to be sure, its monotony
Is varied with excellent brown bread made Of
Indian corn, with innOcuOus baked beans, and
with glutinous "hapjacks" and griddle cakes

ave want to be married for three years" said
man who headed party of Poles that yester-
day entered the office of Clerk Robinson of the
Jersey City police board, who is also justice of
the peace.
Leaning on the mans arm was well-dressed
young woman, who smiled cheeriully and
nodded assent to the expressed wish.
"Why, can't do that" said the squire, "it's
against regulations"
"Well, make it five years, then," pleaded the
man.
The young woman, easy to please, again
nodded acquiescence.
"Can't do that either" said the justice. "All
marriages in New Jersey are for life, unlimited,
and for better or worse"
The man seemed greatly disappointed. There
was consultation in which ali the party took
part. The young woman made no objection to
any OF the plans proposed, save that of aban-
doning the project OF getting married at all.
The man seemed inclined to that rather than
marriage without limitation, but he finally
consented to the only contract which the Jus
tice would ratify, and the marriage ceremony
was performed.
The bridegroom gave his name as John Bud
ronch, and the young woman said she was Kate
White. Both said they resided at 4O3 Hender-
son street.
