A GENUINE ROMANCE.
A Spanish Grandee Weds . Bsautifr
Polish Peasant Girl.

Spanish Grandee Weds . Beautiful
Polish Peasant Girl.
A very interesting wedding, which
can not be aptly described as q marriage
q la mode, or love match, or even q
mere mesalliance, but partakes In the
nature Of all three, has lately taken
place in an obscure Polish village, SAYS
a st. Petersburg correspondents the
bridegroom being no less a personaee
than Spanish grandee, the Governor
of the Philippine Islands, and the bride
charming, artless Polish peasant girl.
The match was brought about In this
way: A year ago the Spanish dignitary
obtained leave of absence and paid Q
visit to Paris tor the sole purpose Of
seeking for a suitable life partner in
that international matrimonial mart.
The qualifications required in the bride
were few, but Important; she should
profess the Roman Catholic faith, and
should have something more valuable
than her face fer her fortune.
His vigilant eyes soon fell upon .
beautiful Polish maiden, who, though .
peasant, could boast of great worldly
wealth, and was blessed with good looks,
tions. The Spaniard cultivated the co.,
quaintanoe of this Slavonic maiden,
talked with her father, proposed and
was accepted. Shortly before the mar,
riage Polish Prince, the owner of the
village Of Sandomir, was induced to
confer by adoption upon the young lady
the title Of Princess. After this the
Governor Of the Philippine Islands.
journeyed to Russia Poland, to the Gov
ernment of Kelets, where a few days
ago he was united in wedlock to the
lady of his-heart The marriage cere-
mony was performed by the Bishop of
Sandomir in the rural church Of an OBJ
scure village, according to The rites Of
tho Roman Catholic Church. The little
chapel was filled with peasants Of every
age, among whom were many Of the
former playmates of the blushing bride.

mchInIey's Gracious Act.

II yield the gentleman from Pennsl
vania fifteen minutes of my time"
Itwas one of the most dramatic scenes
ever enacted in the House Of Repre-
sentatives. The sick, feeble and fail
ing gentleman from Pennsylvania, re-
spected and honored by all men of
both parties, Hon Sam j. Randall. was
asking fifteen minutes' extension Of his
time, In order that he might deliver the
concluding portion of his tariff speech,
which was against the policy OF his
party Mr.. Mills, Of Texas, the leader
OF his party, hurried down the aisle and
shouted, Il object" and that one obiec-
ton prevented the Unanimous consent"
which was asked by Mr. Randall. The
ex-speaker did not turn his hnad to look
at the objector, nor appeal for consider
alton at his hands; but quietly sank into
his seat, humiliated. but uncomplain-
ing The next speaker on the list for
that day was Hon. William Mckinley,
Of Ohio. He Immediately arose, and
said In clear ringing voice: 'sMr
Speaker, yield to the gentleman from
Pennsylvania, fifteen minutes of my
time" Immediately there broke forth
storm of applause from all over the
House. both on the floor and in the gal
leries. ItRas one OF the most gracious
deeds Of McKinley's life. Mr.. Randall
proceeded with his speech and finished

appreciation of the courtesy OF the

''You would be amazed" said q cfty
missionary to . San Francisco Examiner
reporter, "if you knew the kind of peo-
pie who go to Chinese physicians for
treatment. To my knowledge they have
many respectable white people among
their patients-people who pass for in
telligent men and women.
"I am acquainted with one man who
for years has been engaged in business
in somewhat large way in this CITY
and who quit the white physicians and
went to Hing Wo Hop for advice.
He found himself growing tat and
was probably too indolent to take the
exercise which had been recommended.
What troubled him most was the in
creasing size of his waist You see, with
middle age his viscera had begun to set
tie down.
"Dr. Hing listened to his complaints
with grave interest, and without hestta-
ton promised to cure him. The first
prescription was dose Of dried alliQa-
tors blood and powdered tigers tails to
strengthen him.
1.-TWO days later DR.. Hing called at
the mans house, shaved his head and
put fy-blister on it. Then he told
him to stand up in corner for as long a
time as he could bear 1t, and the blister
would draw the intestines up into their
old quarters
This is fact, and it is a fact, too.

tainly well-to-do and respectable white
man submitted to the treatment. But

approached Drane with a grim de-
termination to make sure of him writ
ten all over his usually benign coun-
tenance. Drane lifted up his head and
looked straight at the glittering gold
rims of the glasses. He felt certain
that he should not fail of an acquittal IT
once he was properly inspected.
But Rev. Mr.. Knowles made an error
which is alarmingly common in cases
where personal identity is at issue. He
fixed his gaze rigidly on the one thing
which had previously misled him-the
necktie-and to all intents and pur-
poses his scrutiny went no further. And
oh, how he did identify that necktie.
How he reached in and pulled its secret
out! How dead certain, how immovabIy,
unutterably positive he was, when he
raised his eyes from it and pushed up
his glasses again, that that was the YER
table necktie with which he had for
ever united the fate of Miss Nellie
Blake. Then he glanced at Drane's
face with his unassisted eyes; saw
simply physiognomy with the GUS
tomary number of features on it, and
was convinced.

am at a loss to understand your con-
duct"
1t takes really good man to be fixed
in error; but doubt is the eternal por-
ton of the unregenerate. The Rev. Mr..
Knowles was more certain that he had
married Drane, than Drane was that be
hadn't.
Why" continued Mr.. Knowles, ''if
it was your intention to cast this woman
off did you bring her here where your
iniquity was almost certain to trans
pire?"
II didn't bring her here" said Drane,
despondingly, "she brought me-"

man, and the Rev. Mr.. Knowles frowned
in great disapprobation, but now that
/ you are here let me exhort you to do
| your whole duty. What reason you have
for denying your wife do not know.
Have you any thing to say against her

Heaven forbid" said Drane, hastily.
That Is subject on which I never say
any thing"
You have the instincts of gentle
man." the old clergyman said, slowly.

able tramp who personated me on that

emphasis, land regret that his Repu-
tation should suffer during my tempo

cheerfully; lets have no more hard

dismay, wondering wiz the woman's OBJ
iect was and how far she wC,'Id allow
the ridiculous game to proceed.
| Meanwhile Rev. Mr.. Knowles had
shifted his spectacles from hi fereteAd
to the end of his nose, and he beamed
more beniguly over them than under
them if possible.

ward, the one direction in which the
good mans sight had never failed him.
"I entFeat you, my son, be man." he
continued, ''and leave this strange and
evil course for the better way"
Drane was torn by many conflicting
emotions The old clergyman's manner
was so kind that Drane could have
kissed his venerable hand, and his
error was so annoying that Drane
longed to break his venerable neck.
''My dear =" he was going to say
''my dear SIR" but Mr.. Knowles let him
get no further than the adjective. he
spread his hands over the pair, in the
familiar attitude, and Nellie. taking
the hint, fell upon Drane's neck. His
utter inability to struggle against cir
cumstances led him absolutely to tears;
and the Rev Mr.. Knowles, taking out g
} large handkerchief, cried softly in
unison.
They were all so much occupied that

corners of his eyes, and he tried hastily

When rills from icy prisons race,
Like children out to play,
When meads with mantles green rep.sca
Their sleeping gowns OF gray,
When tassels deck the forest tents
In wizard silence spun,
And plant earth no more resents
The fondness OF the sun,
What joy along the breezes bland
At morn and eve TO hear
The music of the plumed band
That halls the Weakening yearl
winged voice is everywhere,
The sunbeams singing shine,
And every breath Of tuneful air
Is light as beaded wine.
Unworn the ancient carols pour
From throat OF living bird,
The very strains that DER and DER,
In vernal gladness heard;
The turtles cooed In fir and pine,
And mid the myrtles sung
The nightingales Of Palestine,
When Solomon was young.
AS dulcet fine, as crystal pure,
AS tender, and as free,
The bluebird's warbled overture
Wakes in our homestead tree;
And the song-sparrow, April's pet,
Salutes his fellows small,
And trills his tremulouS canZonet
On every garden wall
The yeliow-hammers pipe and beat
Among the fragrant glades;
The redbreast flutes his solo sweet
And laughs his glad roulades;
The peewee from the courthouse thatch
Repeats his name all day;
And the brown n-thrasher trolls his catch
High on the hickory spray.
The wren song like a shower Of sparks,
Out flashes, and is still
Far peal the notes of meadow larks;
And farther, on the hill,
With cry Of jay bird and chewink,
And oall Of soaring crow,
The deeper tones Of nature link
In quaint solfeggio.
The more, as greener foliage grows,
The chimes of spring rejoice;
The orchard gladder buds and blows
To hear the kingbird's voice;
The dun fly-catcher perching filings
His puny plash Of cheer;
And the green hummer's happy wings
Purr at the tulips ear.
The martens chirrup as they wheel;
The orioles whistle gay;
hear beyond the alders steal
The blackbird's gurgling lay;
And bobolink, Mays last delight,
The breezy fields along
Comes scattering In his sidelong flight
A trail OF tinktng song.
Then on each wave Of Joy that sweeps
Across the open land
Float echoes from the forest deeps
That charm me where l stand.
Thro' shaded aisles runs silvery soft
The black throat's limpid tune,
And vireos in the murmuring loft
Enchant the vernal noon,
Where the bright tanager recites
His clear mockrobin hymn,
And yellow warblers' notes like lights
Thro' sylvan shadow swim,
And the saint wood thrush. bird devout,
The sweetest of the choir,
His golden Angelus rings out
AS from some temple spire.
