THE BEST MAN.
How Young Van Bibber Assisted
Boston Lochinvar.

Young Van Bibber came back to town
from Newport the other day to see his
lawyer about the disposal of some prop
erty that needed his sanction. He found
the city very hot and dreary and empty.
He had to wait over for an afternoon
train, and as he was downtown he de-
cided to lunch at French restaurant
near Washington square, where some
one told him you could get particular
things particularly well-cooked. The
tables were set on terrace with plants
and flowers about them and covered
with tri-colored awning. There were
no jangling horse-car bells nor dust to
disturb him, and almost all the other
tables were unoccupied. The walters
leaned against these tables and chatted
in a French argot. and cool breeze
blew through the plants and billowed
the awning, so that on the whole Van
Bibber was glad he had come.
When he had given his order he
leaned back and surveyed the other
diners. There was an old Frenchman
scolding over his late breakfast, two
young artists with Van Dyke boards,
who ordered the most remarkable things
IN the same French argot that the wait
ers spoke, and a young lady and young
gentleman at the table next to his own.

some names. 1t doesn't matter much
whether they happen to know the high
contracting parties or not but they
must be names that every body knows.
Whoever is in town will be lunching at
Delmonico's and the men will be at the
club" So he just went to the big res
taurant, where, as good luck would
have it, he found Mrs. "Regy'' Van
Amt and Mrs. Jack Parrish and the
Misses Brookline, who were just off the
yacht Minerva, of the Boston Yacht
Club, and he swore them to secrecy and
told them about it
At the club he pressed four men into
service who knew everybody and whom
everybody knew. and when they pro-
tested that they had not been properly
invited and that they knew only the
bride and groom by sight, he told them
that made no difference, as it was their
names only he wanted. Then he sent =
messenger-boy to get the biggest suite
of rooms on the Fall River boat and
another one for flowers, and then he put
Mrs. Regy Van Arnt into cab and sent
her after the bride, and, as best man, he
got into another cab and carried off the
groom.
"I have acted as best man or usher
.forty-two times now," said Van Bibber,
as they drove to the church, land this

Mrs. ''Regy" and Miss Cambridge
wept great deal on the way uptown,
but the bride was all smiles and bushes
when she walked up the aisle to meet
her prospective husband. They all
shook hands after it was over, and the

The mans back was toward him, and ne
could see only the girl when the youth
moved to one side. She was very young
and very pretty, and she seemed in q
most excited state Of mind from the tip
OF her wide-brimmed, pointed French
hat to the points of her patent-leather
ties. She was strikingly well-bred in
appearance, and Van Bibber wondered
why she should be dining alone with so
young a man.
"It wasn't my fault" said the youth,
earnestly; 'T'd no idea he would be out
Of town, and, anyway, 1t really doesn't
matter. There are other clergymen in
the city besides your cousin"
''Of course" said the girl, almost tear
fully; "but they're not my cousin and
he is, and that would have made it so
much-oh, so very much different Pm

He bent his head over an entree, but
he could not help hearing what fol-

he ratified his knife and fork in q most
vulgar manner, they did not hear him

make out list and drive around in a

''Oh, we'll, that's all right" exclaimed

CHICAGO, juno 30.-An attempt 10

sheehan and his wife, Nora, were the
victims. In tho afternoon they hired a
boat at Jackson Park, and in company
with two young men, James Gregory
and Michael Kelly, started for a row.
Sheehan had the oars, and when about
a mile out in the lake became tired Of
rowing, and Kelly volunteered to take
his place. In changing seats the two
men capsized the boat, and all four were
thrown into the water. Kelly and Gre
cory, who arc good swimmers, succeeded
in righ,ing the boat and in getting Mrs.
Sheehan into 1t. Hardly had they done
so when Sheehan, who was making Il
desperate effort to save his life, seized
one side Of the boat violently and again
capsized 1t. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Sheehan
were drowned in spite OF the efforts Of
their companions to save them. Kelly
and Gregory held onto the boat until

DEBATE on THE ELECTION BILL.

lfonk, of Tsnnessec, Makes n Strong Point
in It's Favor-A Republican Ktchcr.
WAsulSaToN, June 30.-The debate
on the Federal election bill was re.
sumed, Mr.. Herbert, Alabama, being &C.
corded the floor.
He referred to the reconstruction laws
and said that by them the negro had
been taught to distrust the Southern
white man. The negro was now learn
ing that it was not for his interest to
array himself solidly against the white
man, and the white man was doing
everything in his power to teach the
negro this lesson.
H0uK STRIKES THE NAIL on THE HEAD.
Mr.. Houk, OF Tennessee, said that his
advocacy OF national election law did
not grow out OF any supposed emergency
or necessity, notwithstanding thai there
were a variety Of reasons now that the
power OF the Government should be u.s.
serted. What harm would Il Federal
election law do? What harm would re-
suit from an honest election? Had the
Democrats from the South practiced dis.
honest elections 10 long that it would
break their hearts to have to stop theul?
1t was said that the bill would reviye
race prejudice. He undertook to say
that there was no race prejudice iuvolv-
ed in this bill. This was not race prtju-
dice that the Democrats were combating.
1t was political prejudice. The objec.
ton was not that the Colored man was
black, but that he voted the Republican
ticket. He wanted this Government 10
be so strong that it could reacn out it's
hand and punish every crime against
the rights OF the nation.
Mr.. coLEMAN's OPPOSITION.
Mr.. Coleman, OF Louisiana, announced
himself MS Republican both from con-
viction and from principle, and South
ern man by birth, education and assoca-
tion, but he was opposed to the enact.
ment OF n federal law at this time, and,
notwithstanding the fact that the pro.
moters of this measure aimed TO secure
the great desideratum OF free ballot
and fair count, he did not think this was
the proper timeto make this political
experiment. lie opposed any legisla.
lation calculated to create trouble and
friction between the races. He wanted
peace, progress and prosperity. He
wanted to see the industrial develop
ment in the South continued. A federal
election law would be an. expensive po-
litical biunder. Pass federal election
law, and tho men now ready to separate
from the Democratic party would get
back into what they were told was the
white man's party, rather than risk ne.
gro supremacy. %
The debate was further continued by
Messrs. Finley, Of Kentucky, Waddeli,
Of Virginia. aud Hopkins aud Burrows, If
Michigan. in favor Of the bill, aud Messrs.
Turner, Of Georgia, Tracey, OF New
York, and Outhwaite, OF Ohio, in oppo.
sition to it.
At the evening session several Rep.
resentatives spoke in opposition to til.
bill.
