Terrors tho Marriage Ceremony Has for
Travelling Salesman.
A very nervous couple called at the City
Hall In Jersey City, and tried the doors of
all the offices. The rear door of the Mayors
Office they found open, and they anxiously
inquired of a young man inside where the
Mayor or the City Clerk could be found
The young man said both officials were out
of town. A disappointed look spread over
the features of the nervous couple, and they
left the building.
The young man followed them ont and
questioned them. They told him confiden-
TALLY that they wanted to be married. The
young man got his hat and took them to
Justice Weeds Office, in Gregory street.
Their nervousness increased there. The
Judge treasured them, ard then made out
the regular marriage form. The man
signed his name Israel Williamson; home,
80 Vernon street, Boston; business, CON-
woman's turn to sign her hand shook SO
she couldn't hold the pen. Her companion
signed for her. Matilda Greensboro, home
st. Joseph's avenue, Rochester.
The ceremony was quickly performed,
and the couple went direct to the ferry and
came to this city. The young man who took
them to the Justices Office says MIR. VIII
hanson explained that that he had met the
Young woman only week before. and he
would rather sell twenty bills OF goods than
20 through the marriage ceremony again.
The bride WIS of medium height and was
pretty. She said she was % years old, bul
she didn't look it. The groom was about hel
height, He gave his age at 26.-N. Y. Sun

ton is solid, and of dark color, and
adaptable to being glued to the wood. Inc
other is white, and of softer texture, that
will taEe chalk, and that can be shaped as
desired. No, they are not sent from the
shops ready for use unless ordered so. Inc
tip is usually of much greater diameter
than is the end of the cue, and this extra
leather is rubbed off with sand-paper.
What is the proper length of cue 7?
The old style was feet long, but hnally
they were reduced to 4feet inches, butex-
perts use shorter than that-abOut feet
inches"
What are the advantages of the shorter
ones?''
well, in the first place, there is too much
lumber to handle. No matter how far one
may want to reach, there are several inches
at each end that are not in use. Then the
long ones spring at the wrong pace-near
the hand-while the spring in the short,
slender ones is very near the tip. Inc
weight is another important feature. AN
ordinary player will use any cue from IA 10
"a ounces in weight, but about is ounces is
the favorite weight Of experts. Ladies use
much lighter-say from 10 to Is ounces.
What kind of wood is mostly used?"
'Oh. ash, hickory and maple are used for
the ordinary cue; but for something fancy,
ebony, walnut, rosewood, cocobolo, anna
rynth or mahogany come into play. Now,
take this cue, made expressly for myself.
The butt is of solid ebony and the smaller
end OF ash, but some are made with pieces
of different woods laid in, and often they are
carved. A fancy cue is to a billard-pIayer
what nice bow is to violnist, and you
would be surprised at the prices paid Tor
some. The cheapest are "a dozen, but
real nice inlad, jointed one is worth $50.
YOU can get anything of intermediate value
you want. Most experts and lovers OF
the game have cues made to order and
jointed so that they may be taken along on
journey. "A great many Cincinnati men

dreds of miles every summer to see it and
the number is increasing every year. The
advent of railroads, making travel into this
section easier and speedier, will materially
increase the number of visitors going
thither, and before another summer rolls
around the Burlington and Missouri road
and the Elkhorn branch of the Chicago and
Northwestern will pass within the shadow
of this obelisk.
Miss Kent is net the first one to conceive
the idea Of filing on this land. Others have
attempted to accomplish the same thing,
but have abandoned their purpose because
of the strong opposition met with, and no
. one ever went so far as to attempt to prove
up on it. Miss Kent is a native of Lam
caShire, and is about 10 years old. She
came 10 America in 1887, and has resided
with her nephew, who is an extensive
stock-grower and the owner of several hun
dred acres of land in Crook County, ever
since, except few months in 1898,
when she returned to England on
a visit Their ranch is reputed to
be one of the finest in the State
of Wyoming, and is famed for its hospi-
tally, chiefly among the cattle and horse
men of that vicinity, many of whom are
English. Miss Kent is woman of consid-
cradle culture and refinement. She has
Travelled extensively in Europe and the Holy
Land. During the past winter she deliv-
cred series of lectures throughout the
Black Hills on her travels across the desert
of Arabia. The proceeds of the lectures
were given to the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union, of which she is an enthu-
siastic member.
Now that this matter is before the public,
1t is probable that strong effort will be
made to have Congress set apart tract of
land, including that on which Devils
Tower stands, as a national park, similar
to that ON the Yellowstone. The question
has been talked of before, and some emf
nent men have approved of the idea. An
area two miles in width by five miles in
length would include Bear Lodge and the
Twin Buttes, on the Little Missouri River,
and would form natural park of grandeur
and beauty hardly to be surpassed.
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1890-08-31

would be more than three colors required
at any one time, and so no other color than
the three mentioned was provided; but the
white flag must be used by all Rear-Admirals
below the second in seniority when more
than two are present in one port in COM
mand. As the Chicago is not within sight
or signal distance of any of the other flag
ships it might be supposed that the blue
flag could without any improperly be flown,
but strict Interpretation of naval etiquette
is in favor of Admiral Walkers flag being
changed, inasmuch as his squadron is with
in the limit of the senior flag officers COM
mand. Such being the case, the appropriate
insignia of rank would have to be white
flag.
The interesting feature of the situation,
says the New York Herald, lies in the fact
that such gathering of kindred chieftains
of the deep has never before been known

Their rival scarfs of mixed embroidery
Their various arms that glitter in the air.
