An Australian wedding custom.

Our Australian cousins have hit upor
q pretty device as substitute FOR the
Objectionable practice of throwing
rice over bridal pair us they leave
the church or start for their honey
moon. At 4 recent marriage the guests
showered rose leaves over the happy
couple when they took their departure
for the wedding tour until the bride
was literally covered with the fragrant
roseate petals as she sat in the car
riage. This is more poetic way of
symbolizing ones desire that the union
may be prosperous and fruitful than
the more irritating shower of rice that
scratches the skin, ruffles the tempers
and possibly lodges in the eyes Of the
groom and bride

Every little while. when something
done by Congress or the President dis
pleases somebody, a wall is raised that
our Constitution is not like the British,
and that ian appeal to the people, can
not be had promptly enough. One of our
special correspondents, we are sorry to
say, seems to have been affected in this
way. In Washington letter printed
lately there appears the following:
President Cleveland astonished some Of
the members Of his cabinet few days
ago by saying that he wished ne had the
power possessed by the queen Of England
to prorogue parliament. II the president
had that power, he would now dismiss
congress from its sitting and sen it back
to the country for reelection, the silver
repeal bill being the issue upon which
men would be compelled to make their
stand before the electors. or course the
president has no such power, and in this
instance it would be Of little advantage
to dismiss congress, for the reason that
it is in the senate, which corresponds to
the house OF lords, that the presidents g
policy ismet with opposition and deter :
mined obstruction.

The certificate which was given to
Prince Bismarck at the termination Of
his course at the university Of Gettingen
throws an interesting light upon the
early escapadcs Of the famous German
chancellor. He never worked more
than FIVE hours n day, and generally
less. He was three times imprisoned,
or suffered 'seclusion," for breaking
the university regulations He had ten
days for being present ut duel with
pistols, and a further installment of
three days on another occasion for u
similar offcnse. His last term of con-
finement was fourteen days. The ma
ture Of the misdemeanor is unspecified,
but it must have been serious breach
of the laws of the Royal Great Britain
MIA Hanoverian George Augustus uni
vcrsity to merit such big punishment.

A great and popular demand has been
manifested in the east. especially at Wash
ington, for copies OF the silver speeches.
A senate official yesterday said that the
distribution of Senator Vests speech had
now reached 100000 copies. The farmers
seem to be omnivorous readers Of all that
deals with finance. Nine-tenths OF the
demand for that kind OF literature is
from the rural districts. From the cities
and larger towns have come the petitions
and memorials for speedy action. From
tho cross roads and farms have come the
numberless applications for speeches.
There is u good deal OF Significance in
this.

Large farms are rarely cultivated as
thoroughly as smaller ones, because the
owners do not often have sufficient capital
to do it. Having spent all their money for
land, they are nows hampered for the
necessary working capital. One point too
often overlooked is that farmer should
have working capital in due proportion
to the acres he attempts to till. Some
men are alert to procure the acres, and
think the rest will take care Of itself.

Sr. LOUIS, May l5.-The Globe-Demo-
crat will, in the morning, say editorially
of the decision in the Geary law: The

she will adopt policy of retaliation and
expel all Americans from her territory.
There will probably be a mutual with

ter therefore will be awaited with con-
siderable interest. There Ia material

peror of China decide to take the rick,

he will choose.

CHICAGO, May 15.-The Record says :
The requirement of the Geary law put
upon foreign-born citizens of this coun-
try would be intolerable. Put upon
people who have no designs upon citi'
zenship they are certainly no hardship.
If Chinese exclusion is to obtain, some
such system as that prescribed 10y
the Geary law is necessary. with
thousands of miles of border virtually
unprotected these immigrants may poui
in, and when once scattered amonl
their own countrymen detection Is i'm
possible, except by the absence o

follow as mattsr OF course. He had M

Congressman Geary Thinks Deportation
Is Cheap and Feasible.
SANTA Rosa, Cal, May 15.-The citi-
zens of Santa Rosa are holding cele-
bration tonight in honor Of the supreme
courts decision sustaining the constitu-
tionality of the Geary Chinese law.
Huge bonfires are blazing in the streets,
fireworks illuminate the heavens, and
cannons are being fred.
Congressman Geary, whose home is
In Santa Rosa. was interviewed by an
Associated Press reporter. He said he
did not think it would cost
a very great sum OF money
to enforce tho law; that it
would be unreasonable TO think gov
ernnent would have to be deferred from
executing the law because expense
would be incurred in go doing. He said
that, owing to the time required in de-
ciding each individual case, and the be-
lief that the Cinnamon can be deported
for about $i5 per head, the $4,000 left
in the treasury for that purpose will be
sufficient to meet the expense until con-
gress meets. He also stated that in his
opinion when the Chinese see that
the government means to enforce the
laws they win voluntarily leave for
Cuba, Brazil and other countries rather
than remain here and incur the risk and
trouble of being sent back to China. He
thinks highbinders and other criminals
will be the first to be tried under the
act.
The congressman said the Chinese
have nobody to blame but themselves
for not complying with the law, and
that any hardship resulting is just
penalty for violating it.

Washington, and Is no longer q contract.
The treaty will not have any effect upon
the Chinese government in what they
may see ft to do regarding Americans in
China"
ATTORNEY MowRY's OPINION.
Lyman Mowry, attorney for the
Chinese Six Companies here, was seen.
He says he predicted that the Geary
law would be found constitutional; that
was why he was not employed to fight
the case in Washington. He thinks the
law outrageously unjust. ut will cost

he, land | think no immediate action
will be taken. The president will prob
ably defer acting on the matter until
congress convenae, when the law will

THE SAND LOT ON TOP.
The news of the decision created no
excitement here outside Of Chinatown.
The afternoon papers made large sales
on extra editions. DR.. @. @. O'Donnell
and Dennis Kearney took occasion TO
mount wagon near the stock exchange
at the noon hour. Kearney said at last

THE CHIEF JUSTICE ALSO DIssENTs.
Chief Justice Fuller also dissented
from the opinion OF the court.
In his dissenting opinion. Chief-Jus-
tice Fuller denied the soundness Of the
proposition that the cases. before the
court were such as the political depart
deal with. It was in his view judicial
question, and however reluctant the
may be to pass upon the constitution
ality of legislative acts, 1t wss the very
essence of judicial duty TO do 30 when
the discharge OF that duty was prop
erly imposed upon it. He entertained
no doubt that the provisions of the court
fifth and fourteenth amendments were
universal in their application, and while
the general government was invested,
as far as foreign countries were con-
cerned. with all the powers necessary to
the maintenance of its absolute inde-
pendence and security, it could not, in
virtue OF its supposed inherent sover-
eighty, deal with persons lawfully and
peacefully within its domain. The act
before the court was not an act to abro-
gate or repeal a treaty nor TO expel Chi
nemen lawfully here, and no such intent
could be imputed to congress. Its OBJ
ject was 60 prescribe method Of regis
tration, and deportation by way OF pun
ishment was, in his view, an unusual
puniehment not authorized by the con-
etitution.
REHEARINo MOVED.
After the court had concluded the an
nouncement of their opinions, Aslaton,
Of counsel for the Chinese. moved re-
hearing and argument before the full
bench at the next term.
At present the court stands Eve to
