a Missing Chinese Bride.

An amusing story concerning the
adventures of q Chinese bride Is told in
he Hapao, q native paper. In China.
t seems, a bride usually rides in a rich
lv embroidered red satin chair. decor
ted with flowers, hired for the occa-
ION. Lately in Canton city q man
ired q chair to carry the bride to his
homestead in the suburbs. The dis
ance was great and the hour was late.
When the four chair coolies and the
antern-b bearers arrived at their destin-
ton, the chair containing the bride
vas deposited outside the doorway to
wait the suspicious hour selected for
pening the door to admit tine bride,
nd the crowd adjourned to an opium
en- to pass an hour. The char. bearers
ell asleep, and how long thsy dozed
aey know not, but on awaking they
eturned and found the bridal chair
till outside the doorway. They came
o the natural conclunon that the bride
ad already entered the household,
nd that the chair WA left for them to
axe iack to the city. Accordingly
hey hurried home with it, put 1t in
he loft, and went to bed. In the
oeantime the bridegroom heard the
,ridal party arrive, bus had to wait the
. roke OF midnight before welcoming
he bride. At last the candles were lii,
incense sticks we're ignited, the new
ice and viands for entertaining the
bride were served, the parents.in-law
ut on their best suits, and so did the
bridegroom; and with much pomp and
CEREMONY the door was thrown wide
pen, but there was not . trace of the
ridal chair seen. Great wa their
op~sternation, and It became greater
till when they concluded that bandits
nust have kidnapped the bride and
I'D her for raj SON.. The police we're
formed, and search parties were sent
ut in every direction. The bride
room, though distracted had sense
uough to rush to the city and MAKE
lquiries Of the chair bearers. The
,olies we're dumbfounded, and ex-
aimed what they had done. Together
ey climed to the loft, opened the
,or of the chair, and found the
omure-looking bride, long imprisoned
nd haif-s arved, but still appearing to
r best advantage in her beautiful
idai gown. The bride appeared to
ave known that she was being carried
nth and back, but could not protest,
ecause it is the custom for rides not
o open their mouths till the marriage
CEREMONY is performed. Hence all the
ouble.

brother officer was taken sick and he
had to 60 on duly in his place. He
called a colored servant, faithful and
true. He could not write q note so be
