the Neglect Of the Groom
lBoston Journal


A person about to be married has sent
in complaint for public consideration
against the constant neglect which the
bridegroom receives from the press, from
the friends of the contracting parties
and often from their immediate families
All interest centers in the bride, whose
dress is described in voluminous detail
whose bouquet is not considered beneath
mention, and whose face, blushing be.
meath her veil, is the most pleasing at.
traction of the wedding.
The bridesmaids, lovely girls, futter.
ing in dainty colors, are worth more
than passing notice. The ushers, the
guests, and even the organist, are spoken
of in an appreciatiye manner. Some
times there is consideration shown to tn,
sexton of the church. But where is tn,
groom? There are columns of descrip
tons of weddings in the daily press, ant
in these columns the personality of tn,
groom is passed over without gimme
Of apology.
How does the groom dress? What /
his choice of flower? Do his gloves fit
Are his shoes of patent leather? Nobod,
knows these interesting details, although
they are undoubtedly important to tn
neglected man. His presence is suppose'
from occasional mention of the ''younI
couple" and he probably may be seel
skulking around the corner of the pull
pit; but he is evidently in hurry 70
the completion of the matter. 1t is no
his occasion. Unfortunate man, he lis tn

IL is fun to watch the pineapple man

IL Ia fun to watch the pineapple man.
He ia a generous fellow, and the slabs
of nine that he cuts off and retails for a
nickel are thick and sweet, and his trade
is large.
Unto him clerks, newsboys and mil
lionaires come the iyelong day to re
fresh themselves with fruit. BE peels
and cuts and cuts and peels, and still the
demand continues. So
A Wall street banker stops and buys q
niece; an editor refreshes his inner man
with slab of pine; street gainsn whee-
dies nickel slice out Of the old man for
a penny. An old, decrepit woman, with
a cheek as hard as that Of the statue Of
Liberty, comes up and asks him for 4
slice. The pineapple man looks at her a
minute, subtracts thin slice from the
heap and gives it to the beggar, and she
goes on her way rejoicing.
At last the curbstone merchant gets
out his dinner pail and eats a hearty
meal. 1t never occurs to him to flavor
it with some of his luscious stock In
trade, and he goes describes.
When he is through he takes out q
very small tin pail of water and sprin.
kles some of it upon the fruit to keep il
from getting dry. Then he carefully
washes his hands in the pail, and then,
oh, heavensl he carefully covers up the
pail, as if water were precious under thu
shadow of the postofice and with the
free drinking fountain not thirty feet
awayl
Thank you, not today! was going t.

Conscience In the Sleeping Me n.


Dreams have been regarded as an in
teresting subject of study ever since
scientific thought was born. Locke, the
essayist on the human understanding,
was of the opinion that a man did not
think at all when really asleep, while
modern Investigators in this line of
research believe that thought no more
ceases during sleep than watch prop
erly wound runs down In the night.
According to their notion, under such
conditions the mechanical functions of
the mind are active. though uncontrolled
by the judgment, and thus it happens
that ones dreams are apt to be unreason-
able and even absurd.
Could anything be more interesting
than to trace the progress of a dream, il
it were only possible? Think of the va.
riety of experiences through which one
would be conveyed, untrammeled by
the limitations of common sense which
restrict ones waking thoughts, and freed
from the moral responsibilities that en-.
cumber the doings of ordinary life.
Probability sets no bounds to the dream
er's vision, and even conscience is dor
mant, since the most righteous of men do,
on occasions, misbehave themselves most
shockingly in the strange Land of Nod

Is II To or Too?
TNntas and Ouaries1

Z The violation of the particle "to' is a
sin of continual growth, and not merely
by that insertion Of an adverb between
it and the body of the verb censured by
Taylor, but by total dislocation, as in
such cases as "try to" "mean to-" "going
to" and "obliged to-" DR.. Watts has
been taxed with its preparation in q
well known line which occurs in his
didactic rhyme for children, "Let dogs
delight to bark and bite" the probable
truth being that he wrote not9For tits
their nature to-" but, ''FoY it's their ma.
nature I'D est, the nature of bears and
tigers to growl and fight,) too" A mis-.
print here is vastly more conceivable
than an ungrammatical trip on the part
of DR.. Watts.

1t is reported that the District Attorney of
New York has concluded to indict all the
New York papers that published accounts Of
the recent electrical executions at Sing Sing.
At the same time, the District Attorney is
quoted as saying that he considers the law
which forbids publication of the details of
executions bad one. In the face of this
declaration 1t looks as II the prosecution
would not be a very vigorous one. At any
rate there will be very little heart In it.

The king Of snubs.


That interesting and curious person,
Foraker, has great fondness for "snub
issues" whether he appears as the snub.
Der or the snubbed Once his claim
was that a President of the United States
had snubbed him. Now il is that he has
snubbed a President of the United States.
IL appears that Foraker took umbrage at
something that was said by previous
speaker at the Republican League Con-
yention, and he vented his spite ia saying
that Blaine was a great statesman and
had given us splendid Adminstra-
ton" Foraker's temper seems to have
run away with his Judgment. Something
is always running away with his iudg-
ment and secreting il. IL Blaine, per
Harrison, has given us a splendid Admin
istration, it seems that the way to get an
other is to re-elect Harrison that he may
again submit himself TO Blaine. At any
rate, the Secretary of State must shudder
when he thinks that he may have in
CURED the support of Foraker. The en-
nifty Of that statesman is of no conse-
quence, but his friendship has invariably
proved fatal TO its objects.
