Bustle OF an English Wedding.

Long before an out-of-town wedding
in England the whole country roun d
about is active. There is q great
amount OF cleaning and s2rubbing OF
faces among the small folks and
washing of Sunday clothes. The land
is secured for miles for posies, which
are strewn in the happy brides path
only, for of course the house and
church are decorated from the con-
tents of the lighthouses. The carriage
in which the bridegroom brings his
bride home in triumph is trimmed
with white ribbons and huge nosegays
OF white flowers are seen on the foot
man and coachmen and also on the
horses. Friends come for miles in o
special railway carriage. According
to the New York Journal they do not
pay their own fare, ashas been known
to happen here on such occasions. As
the ceremony usually occurs before
or about noon most of them can en-
Joy days outing, if the weather per-
mits, on the green, where dancing is
INDUCED in; if not, on the wide veranda
inclosed in glass.
If the ceremony occurs in church
the priest and vested choir meet the
bridal party at the gate, and, chant
ing wedding music, precede it to the
church. For many days previous
there is great commotion in the ki;ch-
en- and servants quarters i'll an
English country house preparing all
sorts OF goodies "agi'n the time"
when it occurs, for outside OF London
caterers do not abound, and even
those in the metropolis seem decided
ly local and confined their efforts to
supply the home demands, seldom
furnishing the coIlations for distant
affairs, as they do over here. In this
and few other minor points out-of-
town weddings in this country differ
from those in England, but from pres
ent indications it only requires little
time, thought and money i'll order
that matrimonial affairs here shall
far excel in point of briLliancy those
on the other side.

"Then mark this-T will not fight you"
"Ihen do / brand you as a coward"
answered Alexief. But l can wait; and
he who waits wins"
His GOODNESS otmarner and self command
were in striking contrast to his passion of a
few minutes ago. and served to stamp him
as an extraordinary man, 10 less than q
dangerous one He uttered no more
words but went his way; and, having
, secured his cloak and hat, he passed out Of
the house into the night.
Rachel was terribly alarmed She divn-
ed, too surely, from what had passed, that
it was in Iyan's nature to be an implacable
enemy, and there was something in what
he had said which was Enthusiastically a
menace But Moshka comforted her. He
told her that there was no danger. That he
who spoke loudest acted the least. That
Alexieff was an idle boaster, and that he
feared him not
But should he dare me-" he said, then
will / fight him and STAY him.
ooh, no, mol" cried Rachel Though you
had justice on your SIDE think you that
the Staying ola Christian by one of our
despised race would be forgiven? Wemust
avoid him; and when you are my husband
you can take me away, and he will forget
me.
Moskha was thoughtful. He knew that
she had spoken too truly when she had re-
| minded him that he could hope for no
mercy if he slew Christian. Law there
was for the Jew in Russia, but justice was
unknown. And when he had pondered on
her words he said mourufully:-
Eyes, my welI-beloved, we must endure
in silence. Per. ecution and wrong are our
| lot But thou art mine, and ! shall ho d
thee, even at the peril OF my life"
| At these words there came into Rachcl's
! superb face new expression that had
! never been there before 1t was an ex-
| ny esSiOn of anxiety which She in vain
| tried to conceal, for she knew intuitively
| that there was danger. Her people lived
on the thin crust OF a volcano that might
any moment burst forth and scatter them
to the winds. Already harshcr sterner,
and more unjust laws and DEGREES had
been enacted against the Jews dwelling
| in st. Petersburg since the accession of
Peter Alexieif to power. TWAS well known
that he ard his patron, Count Nicholas
| Suvorof, whose creature he was, were I'M
compromising haters of the Jewish race.
And when Alexieff was installed at the
bureau OF police as ts.head the Jews said
to one another: AN evil day dawns for
us; this man is pitilcss."
i Remembering this, Rachel shuddered,
for she felt as If shadows of some coming
sorrow had enyeloped her. Then she and
Moshka went to Aaron and told him all
that had happened; and when he had
heard the story he said: Calm your
selves, my children, and fear not. Ivan's
anger and passion will pass away. In a
few days it will be summer. Then you
shall go to the country, and your
whereabouts shall be kept secret
until the time comes for Moshka to take
You to his house as his BRIDE"

glowing green, which Is flecked with gold
and crimson bars and OH the morrow the
heat has come The birds are carollng In
every tree the buds are bursting, the earth

exodus from st, Petersburg, Tor the sum-
ner heat in the town is intolerable, Every
body who can goes into the country, and
the butshinks, OF street sentinels, sleep
peacefully in their boxes. which stand at
the corner of every street.
Aaron Arama had a country house in
the village Of Tsarsko Selo, not very far
removed from the capital, and which is
known as the Royal village Tor it is
collection of villas all built of wood, and
was iounde by Catherine H., who reared
1t as refuge for oppressed serfs. There Is
a palace there which Is at once an excres-
cence and wonder; for arehitsetnratly it
is hideous, but internally it has rooms laid
with exotic wood that cost more han q
hundred roubles Tor every square yard; and
there is one room that is entirely lined
with transparent amber. To this village
the elite of st. Petersburg go to spend the
summer, and thither went Aaron with his
wife aud dau liter and Moshka Umanski.
As the weeks sped away and Rachel
heard not and saw nothing of Ivan
Alexieff her shadowy ielrs left
her, ana she grew bright aud happy
again--so happy in the company of him
whose bride she was to be. But at last
Meshka had to return to the capital for
his holiday had expired, and duty called
him. Aaron aud his daughter. however,
were to remain at Tsarskoc Sclo for some
little time longer.
Then the hour Of parting for the lovers
came. Rachel admonished Moshka to ex-
ercise all caution and care. But he laugh
ed, and said
Fear not little one; all will be well.'
AS their lips met in q sweet embrace
slight shudder thrilled her. Some vague
and underlined sense of coming evil oppres-
sed her, so that the light in her eyes grew
dim with tears
what is it that makes you tremble, be-
loved?" he asked with some anxiety mani
testing itself in his tone.
cit is nothing" she answered, with
laugh that was forced. "They say when
one suudders somebody is walking over
ones grave. suppose that is it. Some
body passes over the place where shall
find rest"
Talk not so, Rachel" he remarked re-
provingly. 1T will be long ercyour grave

And yet the spot exists" she answered.

asserts that the grass cures be utitully green

that when stacked outside, the sheaves will

When Ivan Alexieff recovered his equili-

arm slightly extended, the fist clenched
ready to dart forward should circumstances
neCeSsitate it.

shall not be. This man is mad. You shall
