the Governor and about hundred mo-
blemen and invited guests. The BRIDE
groom. young man about twenty years
OF age, elegantly attired in silk gar

"By the timo we Foreigners were

mure-looking matrons, composed princi-
pally OF aged or married women, all ele-
gantly attired = entered and slowly
marched toward the Governor.
'sThe bride was not particularly in
teresting as regards personal charmsi
she was young, however, and dressed
richly and in good taste. Besides her
silk dress she wore . gold-embroidered
scarf upon her shoulders; also gold rings
upon her fingers, bracelets upon her
wrists and armlets above the elbows.
The bride took up her position near
the bridegroom, both sitting upon the
floor, but not looking toward each other;
In fact, throughout tho entire ccremony
they both were perfectly impassive and

AssyR,AN SCULPTURE.


| Group Ilustrating the Fertilization OF
tho DAte-Palm.
In one OF the lectures he is delivering
at Aberdeen, under the Clifford bequest.
DR.. z. d. Tylor offered most interest
ing suggestion the other day as to the
meaning of a well-known but puzzling
Assyrian sculptured group. This group
consists Of two four-winged figures, with
bodies OF men and heads OF eagles,
standing opposite tree-like formation,
which is easily recognized as q collec-
tion Of date-palms, or conventional
lied representation Of o palm-grove.
Each of the two figures carries In the
left hand bucket or BASKET, In the
right a body which each seems u. be
presenting to the palm-tree. What
is this body? 1t is usually de-
scribed as fr-cpne, but some
have regarded 1t as bunch of
grapes, Others as pineapple. DR.. Tay-
lor suggests that 1t should be connected
with the most obvious point Of interest
for which the date-palm has been fam
GUS among naturalists since antiquity
namely, its need Of artificial fertiliza-
tion in order 10 produce crop OF edible
dates. This process in its simplest form
consists in shaking the pollen from the
infiorescence Of the male date. palm over
tho iniiorescence OF the female. The
practice is mentioned by Theophrastus
and Pliny, and in modern times in such
works as Shaw's Travels In Barbary."
: DIR. Taylor exhibited a drawing OF the
male palm inforescence, and said 1t
