Married i'm "a Graveyard.

When John Paradise, of New York
won bride in Middle Village, J.. l., he
wanted the marriage performed in a
New York church, but she said "No, =
and 50 it happened that they were we'd
ded in the moonlight among the dead
in a little temple around which rose
hundreds of tombstones,
Helen Fayen was the belle of Middle
Village when John one day left his cafe
and restaurant, No s, Old slip, and
made journey to the quiet, tree shad-
ed place. There was Il vacant corner
in his heart, but as he came back to the
city ne told himself that fair-haired
Helen was his bright particular star.
She was the most Jealous worker of
little Trinity Church, in the heart OF
the Lutheran cemetery. The Young
Ladies' Tabitha Society made her their
president, and she was known for miles
around for her devotion to her church.
They set the marriage day, and John
hinted it would be real nice to have a
wedding in great New York. But
Helen was still loyal to Middle Village
and its graveyard church, and remark
ed she wouldn't be married anywhere
else. The tombstones didn't frighten
her.
John of course had to make the jour-
ney there. He took his brother Henry
and party of friends with him to give
him courage to invade the tombstones.
In six carriages the wedding party
drove to the little church. The Rev.
DR.. d. w. Peterson, who has been
burying the dead in the cemetery for
fourteen years, shook off his mournful
aspect, and while a choir of Helen's
friends sang joyods wedding strains lie
made the couple man and wife.
The graveyard church was brilliantly
lighted and beautifully decorated with
flowers. Its pews were filled with
Helen's associates of Tabitha Society,
dressed in white; the Young Mems Sc
ciety, every member of which looked
enviously at the the happy bridegroom,
and the Ladies Aid Society.
The bride, in white silk and crown
ed with wreath of orange blossoms,
entered the church with her mother,
and the bridegroom, on his brothers
arm, followed. After the ceremony the
wedding party left, as the young ladies
of the Tabitha Society sang depart in
Bliss" After a trip to Niagara the
couple will live at No. III Water
street, this city.-N. !. Herald.

Painless Lightning Strokes,

Only last week couple of farm
hands named Murphy and Anderson,
near Greenwich, Conn.,, took shelter
under an apple tree during a thunder
storm. More than an hour after the
storm passed Anderson awoke to con-
sciousness to find himself drenched
with rain and his face covered with
blood. He saw Murphy lying near him
as if asleep. Limping to neighboring
house, and unable to speak, he pointed
in the direction of the apple tree, in
dicating as best he could that help was
wanted there. Responding at once,
the people with whom he had commu-
nicated found Murphy semi.con-
scious. The mental equilibrium of the
two men was finally restored, however,
and as they recovered both agreed that
they fell asleep during the storm, but
physician who was summoned said
they had both been struck by lightning.
A bolt had cut triangular cash on
the back of Anderson's head, passed
down his spine, half way down his
leg, then jumped to Murphy and para
lived his left side. The condition of
both men at last reports was critical,
and yet both were agreed that they
had not suffered a twinge Of pair.
A few years q 20 man under similar
circumstances Was struck by lightning
in Kentucky field located opposite
Lawrenceburg, Ind. AS was the case
with Anderson, the bolt struck this
Kentuckian in the back of the head,
then took spiral course down his
body and one of his legs, tore his shoe
to atoms, and entered the ground.
The man lay unconscious for several
hours, but on recovering his power of
speech was emphatic in the assertion
that he had suffered no pain. Two
weeks after the incident just narrated
he writer saw the victim of the light
ming stroke, when he said his only suf-
fering was that he experienced on two
or three occasions during thunder show
ers that had passed over his neighbor-
hood since he had been struck by
lightning. The presence of an abnor-
NAL amount of electricity in the at
mosphere was painful to him, but the
lightning stroke he never knew any,
thing about, so far as any consciousness
of it at the time it came was concerned.
