SLIGHTLY OUT OF TUNE.
Tho equitable" Music Selected for the

The equitable" Music Selected for the
Wedding by the oil Organist.
"a friend of mine who was married
this month had curious experience"
said Pittsburgher recently. ''It was
to be church wedding, and they had
some idea of asking friend to attend
to the musical part of the ceremony,
but decided not to for fear of hurting
the feelings of the regular church or
ganist, who had grown gray in that
position. The customary rehearsal OF
the ceremony at the church took place
but the organist did not appear. He
sent word, however, that he guessed
he knew what was wanted well
enough and would be on hand with
suitable music on the eventful night.
They had to be satisfied with this as
surance, for it was too late to make
change in the cast, ss it were.
But the bride and several others
who knew the age and idiosyncracies
of the organist were little nervous
about the character of the music he
would choose for the occasion. They
were hardly prepared for what awaited
them, however AS the bridal pro-
cession entered the church the cheer
ing, but hardly appropriate, strains OF
The Campbells Are Coming burst from
the organ, and it was awfully hard for
the ushers, bridesmaids and the bride
to march up the aisle with slow and
solemn step while the music invited
them to hurry to the time of 'Teerump-
ity, tumpety. tumpety, tum? They
had to do it as best they could. and the
principals and the congregation drew
a deep breath of relief when the clans
had gathered and the music ceased.
Another surprise was in store for
them at the end of the service, when,
instead of Mendelssohn's glorious
wedding march or the numbers sc
often used from 'Tannhauser' ol
'Lohengrin,' the rollicking chorus from

THE JAPANESE mo" DANCE.
An Ontlandish Performance by Automa-
ton-Like Actors.

An Ontlandish Performance by Automa-
ton-Like Actors.
The No dance of the Japanese is
wholly artificial, the movements of the
actors being as stiff, stilted and meas
ured as the classic idiom in which the
dialogue is spoken and the ancient and
obsolete ideographs which set forth the
synopsis of the action. Confined to
yashikis and monasteries, the No was
for the upper classes, who alone could
understand it's involved and lofty die
ton and intricate symbolism.
The No is trilogy occupying four or
five hours of three successive days. The
first set of scenes is to propitiate the
gods; the second to terrify evil spirits
and punish the wicked, and the third to
glorify the good, beautiful and pleasant
The dramatis personae are gods, god
desses, demons, priests, warriors and
heroes of early legend and history, and
much of the action is allegorical.
By long, open gallery at the left the
actors approach the elevated pavilion
or platform of the stage, which is with
out curtain or scenery, and almost with
out properties. The costuming is superb,
many of the rich, century-old brocade
and cloth of gold garments having de-
| scended several generations.
The actors enter at gait that out
struts the most exaggerated stage stride
ever seen, the body held rigid as a
| statue, and the foot never wholly lifted,
sliding slowly along the polished floor.
| These buckram figures, moving with
the solemnity of condemned men, utter
their lines like automata, not muscle
nor an eyelash moving, not flicker OF
expression changing the countenance
The nasal, high-pitched and falsettc
tones are unspeakably distressing, ant
many performers have ruined and los
their voices and even burst blood yes
sells in the long-continued, unnatura
strain of their recitation. The children
who sometimes take part, equal the old
est members in their gravity and me
chanicalness.
In some delightful scenes the demons
with hideor.s masks and abundan
wigs of long, red silk hair, spread de
liberate and conventional terror anon
the buckram grandees; and, stampin
the stage wildly, leaping and whirline
relieve the long-drawn seriousness o
the trilogy. 1t is only when all tn
performers are without the ancien
iacauered masks that the scene is to
imagined as light and amusing farc'
while the roars of the audience al
elected by stately, ponderous and tim
honored puns, and plays upon wore

THREW SAND IN THEIR EYES.
The Young People Kept Up Bravely Tor
Time and Then Slumped.


When the train pulled into the way |
station the young woman was standing
on the station platform surrounded by
several other young women, who were
all talking at once. The young man
stood a short distance away, holding a
big valise.
Hop on there, Mariar' he called out.
Don't be all day about it
Every girl in the crowd with the ex-
ception of the one addressed, exclaimed,
"Oh!" and looked as though something
dreadful had happened. She retorted:
Hop on yourself if you want to. I'm
coming"
The other girls said ''Ohr' again and
the young man got on the train. Then
he called out again:
Cant you get move on you, Maria?
You'll talk the arm off of some one."
"I'll come when get ready, Jacob?'
she returned.
Then she hastily kissed the girls good
by and boarded the train. while they
retired to corner of the station and
held whispered conference over some
thing that seemed to trouble them.
Flop down there"' he said, as they
came to double seat. You don't mind
riding backward and it bothers me-"
She sat down and he put big valise
on the seat beside her and then settled
himself comfortably on the other seat,
while the old lady two seats behind ex-
claimed, "Well, never! and some one
muttered, ''The brute!"
For fifteen minutes after the train
started he pretended to be reading a
newspaper and she was looking out OF
the window But every minute or two
he glanced at her over the top of his
paper a ID her gaze frequently rested on
his face.
And she seemed to be proud of him.
Suddenly she turned toward him with
the exclamation:
Jacob, do you need every paper in
this carr"
He threw her over one he had in his
lap.
81 wonder you didn't think of it be-
fore!'' she said.
You're able to speak if you want
anything!'' he returned. you've got
|
There were more comments from
various portions of the car, and every
one seemed to be wondering what he
would do next
Ten minutes later he looked stealthily
around the car. Every eye was fixec
on him or the young woman who wa:
looking shyly over the top of her paper
He threw his down.
Maria" he said, They've sized u
up; we can't fool 'em and there's no us'
trying"
; A moment later the newly-mad'
wife's head was pillowed on her hus
bands shoulder, and as she looked III
into his eyes she suggested:
, perhaps we overdid it. Jacob"
! perhaps we did" he said ''but thi
is better anyway"
1 Then he kicked the paper in the aisle
r and they carried on whispering con
versation for ninety miles. .-Brando

with his intended victim. This my

It's rather odd, but it's true, that the
more some materials cost the cheaper
they are, and this especially applies to
Grape. A good Grape may be worn for
a long time, dressed and re-dressed, and
re-dressed again, and it always looks as
good as new, while a cheap quality of
Grape has the unpleasant fashion of
growing rusty in very short time and
looking like mitigated woe and suggest
ing nothing so much as grief that viii
not survive a rainy day.
French women thoroughly A1der-
stand the art of mourning, as they do
every other art of dress, and they realize
that the English womaa who walks
with huge veil over her face and ex-
tending far down her back may be a
monument of woe, but is really also a
blot upon the face of the earth. In
stead, the Partisan has arranged on her
street gown full front of Grape, and
by full one means covering the entire
front, bodice with sleeves and jacket
fronts of Grape, and then the tiniest Of
small bonnets, on which is arranged
the heavy Grape veil turned back.
There are several reasons why a vel
worn off the face is recommended
First, Grape, when it is worn over th'
face, seems to shut out all the sunshine
and goodness of life, whereas when i
is properly draped it is distingsie look
