EASTER WEDDINGS.
IN THE HOTEL DININe-RooM.

II you want to have some fun 60 into the
dining room Of some hotel next week and
watch the brides and grooms. They can
hold their own pretty well on the streets,
but when they enter the crowded dining
room they Look hopelessly self-conscious.
The lady walks ahead of the man. She
glances fearlessly around at first, and tries
TO look as though she was thousand years
old and had been married half a century.
She has not walked six yards before every
eye iS riveted upon her. Under such a
broadside the poor beleaguered garrison
gives way, and the rest of her march is
made with down-cast eyes and tell>tale
bushes. The groom surrenders without a
struggle, and follows in the track of his
better half selr-coDfessed culprit. They

is nearly empty, and then out into the
streets once more, where they are lost in the
C. ovid.
ONE OF THEIR PKCULIARITIBS
is the way they avoid other newly-married
people. A bride and groom will be stand
ing in front Of some painting ia the Cor
coran art gallery. Presently another bride
and groom approach. The two couples
catch sight of one another. and then botn
ny IN opposite directions. In the endeavor
TO get as far apart as possible they are
always turning corners and coming upon
one another when they least expect it.
Finally they decide to leave the building,

Williams c. Wickham was born seventy-one
years ago. In this city his eyes FIRST saw the
light. in this city they closed in death. When
seven years old his parents removed to the
county of Hanover. and there he grew 10
manhood, breathing the inspirations which
sweep over its hills and valleys. fresh from
the birth-places of Patrick Henry and a
Henry CLAY. Though he resided within the
limits II that historic county. he was 30

December In San Francisco.
[San Francisco Alta

If any resident Of the eastern states
visited Golden Gate park Christmas he
must have been forcibly struck with the
striking contrast it presented to what
would be seen that time of year in any
eastern pleasure ground. The air was
mild and pleasant and invited outdoor
exercise. The recent rain had freshe4sed
the flowers, trees and grass, causing
brighter colors and more vivid tints.
Thousands Of men, women and children
sat during the afternoon in the open air
listening to the music of the band or re-
clined on the greensward, at ease with
themselves and the world. Children
filed the swings, rode on the mery-go-
round or ate popcorn on the grass. Hun
dreds Of gay turnouts speeded along the
broad driveways, the occupants unin-
numbered by heavy clothing. The trees
and lawns rioted in luxuriant verdure,
while the flower beds were aglow with
wealth of color

The Pay oil OF the umter.
ISavanhah NeWS.1

At meeting of the Confederate Sur
vivors' association in Atlanta Capt.
Frank M. Myers laid before the veterans
correspondence of recent date between
his brother, Maj. Henry Myers, of jack
sonville, Fla, and Librarian Charles
Herbst, of Macon, in reference to the
sale by the latter to the Libby Prison
museum at Chicago of the pay muster
roll of the Confederate ship of war Sum-
ter, of which Maj. Myers was paymas-
ter. In the letters Maj. Myers pro-
nounces the sale of the relic unauthor-
lied, says he gave it to Mr.. Herbst in
1871 only as librarian of the Atlantic
library that it might be preserved
therein, and he calls upon Mr.. Herbst to
make restitution to the Veterans asso-
citation.
The members of the association, tax
ing the view that this demand makes
the price of the document their property,
passed resolution thanking Maj. Myers
for the gift, and appointed a committee
to make an investigation and take steps
toward the recovery of the money. The
veterans say they have taken hold of the
ma Ter in earnest, and will insist on res
titution as long as a chance remains for
the enforcement of their claim. -

Society and Wall Street.
New York Sun.1

Wall streets intimate relationship
with society has often been denied. But
the recent developments socially have
shown that the dependency of one upon
the other is almost complete. The enor-
nous depression of values down town
and the animated and cratic condition
of the market resulted in the abandon
gent of literally scores of dinner parties
and the postponement of many enter
tainments in that portion of New York
which has its center on Murray Hill.
Now that things are quiet again in Wall
street the theatres are beginning to fill
up, the restaurants are crowded, and
there are numberless announcements of
new parties and dances

A carp's Tenac'ty Of Life.
Waahinnfnn Star

Mr.. H. Yost, Jr., of this city, tells a
fish story that is worthy to rank with
the classics, only that there are any num-
Der of witnesses to prove its truth, and
the fish still lives.
"Fridav morning." says Mr.. Yost, 'T
bought a number Of fish, among them q
handsome German carp, the first Of the
kind ! had seen this season. placed
them all on marble slab and covered
them with ice to keep them cold and
moist. Later on hung up the carp, as
he was on split or string such as fisher
men usually use in punching fish. While
handling him noticed slight conyul-
sion pass through his body and move
ment of his tail.
81 was naturally surprised, for knew
that carp had been caught at least forty
eight hours before, but on closer ex-
animation / noticed unmistakable signs
Of life, and 1 placed him in fresh water.
In about two hours he began to breathe,
and then l transferred him to a large
tub, where he has continued to improve
so rapidly that now he swims about as
stout as any carp in the Potomac river"

ELIZABETH CHEVY HARE.

Yes. Dolly, there was grand wedding %
In the gray church under the hill,
Aebeautiful trail and a shimmery veil
Abridelsdy dainty and still.
Sunshine and flowers, oh my, Dolly,
With plenty Of goodies to eat.
A webbing is always the happiest thing,
And a bridelady always is sweet.
And there was brakeman, of course, Doll,
guess he was scared most to death,
He kept shaking so, and he answered quite
low,
IT will, ;" with a catch in his breath.
He stumbled all over the railing,
And he nearly fell out OF the door,
And IL were that very scared brakeman, my
pet,
I'm sure I'd be married no moro.
Isaid to manma-my own dearest
There's tears and there's smiles In her eyes.
And I cannot guess with those flowers and
that dress
Just why a sweet bridalady cries."
Then mamma Rugged me closely and an
swered:
Some time, dear, youn much wiser be,
And know that the tears are for love Of the
past,
And the smiles for the love yet to be-"
But, Dolly, how long It must be, dear.
Before can be such q bride.
With joy bells to swing and q cake and ring.
And q veil and a brakeman besides,
Have q beautiful, beautiful wedding,
And journey to somewhere away;
Live all the long time in the land ito be-"

Reform In Smoking.

Some New Haven smokers have started
tobacco moderation society, members
being limited to three cigars a day.
They have to deposit daily sum equal
ing what they have been accustomed to
spend on tobacco, minus the value Of
the three cigars. And in case a member
smokes more than three cigars on any
day he forfeits all the money he has de-
posted. Those who adhere to the agree.
ment for one year viii share equally in
the fund created by the forfeitures.
This is very good as far as it goes, but it
would seem as though there ought to be
some prize for the members who smoke
less than three cigars day.

CHANGING over the big square envelopes
now travelling through the mails, with
the addresses sprawled in fashionable
English writing up and down instead of
across the surface, one stops to wonder
who invented such an ugly and incon-
venient method of direction to puzzle
postmen, and make their ec-pients'
heads swim trying to decipher them. In
bold, black chirography, the "To" sits in
the lower left hand corner, with name
running to right, and street, town and
state artistically and irregularly distrib-
uted over the remainder of the envelope.
1t Is change, but that is about all one
can say in its favor

while cutting big cypress tree near
Aston, Fla, John Wilson found it occu-
pied by living alligator seven feet
long. As the opening in the tree was
not half large enough for the animal to
get through, the presumption is that it
crawled in while quite young and lived
on the other animals and reptiles that
sought refuge there.
