An odd Bird THAT Likes Fishing.

Away up on the mountain side
where the numerous streams find their
way through deep, dark canons down
to the pulse-beat of old ocean, is the
natural summer home of the water
ousel, the strangest Of all strange birds
You seldom see more than one Of them
at time. They are of dark blue
color, and are easily recognized by a
peculiar. quick, jerking motion, which
they never seem to tire of. And, as
they fit from rock to rock. they are
continually bobbing up and down,
performing such polite little courtesy
as would cause you to smile to see it.
Owing to their peculiar habits and
the isolated spots they select to build
their nests, no one but the most ardent
sportsmen and naturalists succeed in
finding them. Hence a water ousel's 8
nest with two of their eggs in it has a
commercial value among nest collec
tors Of $25. They always build their
nest just back Of some waterfall or
under some overhanging bank. where
they have to 60 through or under the
water to get to it.
Another strange habit ofthis bird is
the deliberate manner in which they
appear to commit suicide. They will
start slowly very slowly, to wade right
down into the water until they disap.
pear from view, but if the wateris clear
and you have q sharp eye you can see
their little dark forms clinging to the
bottom in search of their morning re
past, which consists of periwinkles.

Not The Brides Fault.

A curious incident happened at .
church wedding in this city the other
evening. It was y society affair. and
at 8 o'clock, the hour appointed for
the ceremony, the church was crowded
with guests. The minister who was
to oficiate was there, also the bride
groom ushers and bridesmaids but the
bride was not. Ten minutes after g.
twenty after 8, still no bride appeared.
The people in the church were growing
impatient. Half past 8 and still no
bride! The groom was very anxious.
Had her courage failed her at the last
moment? Had she ceased to love him
and enloped with another man :? Had
her house burned and she perished in
the flames? Had the carriage broken
down and injured her?
These were some of the questions
that ran through his mind, leaving
their impress on bis face. Eight
thirty.fve The bridesmaids bit
their lips, tugged nervously at their
ribbons, and unconsciously despoiled
their bouquets. Was she not coming?
Vague runors ran through the au-
dience, and the minister himself, used
to all sorts of curious things at we'd
dings, began to wonder.
A council of war was held, and it
was decided to send another carriage
after her posthaste. Another! +! When
the facts became known no carriage at
all had been sent for her. During
all this time the drivers supposed that
the ceremony had ieen in progre 8.
In the excitement the principal actor
had been forgotten. 1t is needless to
say that no time was lost in transport
ing the bride to the alter, and at 8.45,
three'quarters of an hour late, the nup-
tiaI knot was tied, and the belated
bride and the happy groom went on
their way.

A Russian Romance.

WalterBesant, the English novelist,
in a note received from him recently
says: "Here is a true story which
does not belong to my correspondence
but | think 1t is very interesting. 1
give it as was told me. A certain
young Russian, of a good family, fell
in love with a village girl, whom he
wished to marry. His father objected
on the ground of social disparity, made
arrangements by which the girl was
betrothed to young peasant of her
own class.
g "Now it is the custom in some parts
of Russia for the bridegroom and his
friends to begin drinking early on the
day Of the marriage, 30 that when the
time comes for the church ceremony
the groom has often to be led to the
altar and supported by friend on
eitier hand. This happened on the
morning of the marriage ofthe girl.
The bridegroom was led to the altar
and supported by two men. Of whom
one was the young gentleman hinI-
self.
"Now mark his craft and subtlety.
When the time came forjoining hands
he put cut bis own hand, the groom,
being too far gone to notice anything,
and so was joined in matrimony to the
girl. The certificate of the marriage
had already been written in the register
before the ceremony, precaution OBJ
yiously necessary.
"The wedding over. the young no.
BILE took the girl from her people at
the church door, drove her away, and
took her to Paris, where they lived to-
gether in amity for several years.
"Then the farther died, and it be-
came necessary to return to Russia.
and. if possible, for the sake of the
children, to get marriage duly &C
tnowledged.
"This business was intrusted to q
lawyer, who visited the village and
saw the register. He returned, stating
that it was impossible, because the
marriage was entered in the books as
between the rustic and the girl. Being
however assured that something must
be done, he returned, got possession Of
| the register, and clumsilY erased the
name Of the rustic bridegroom. This
done, heat this point you ask
what he did, and everybody says,
Filled in the other name No he
didn't; he wrote again over the era
sure the name of the village swain
He did not, therefore, forge the record
but if his noble client afterward found
it desirable to assert that some one
had done so, the fact of the erasnre
would be apparent. ."-Philadelphi 9
