hands In one Of the lines and began a
fierce struggle with the powerful fish
securely hooked at the other end. The
man was sinewy and muscular, but the
fish was strong, too. Back and forth
IL dashed, now diving until the line
stretched straight down into the green
depths beneath the boat and then throw
ing it's great, shining. beautiful body
half a dozen feet into the air, flashing the
waters into silvery spray. But the fish
lacked the willy experience OF the fisher
man, and so slowly, slowly, hand over
hand, the line was drawn In, until at last
the gasping head was lifted clear OF the
water beside the boat. Then another
OF the men lent hand, and the fish
was aboard and lay sullen upon the
dock. He was 2 inches over feet long,
game to the core and every inch gen.
tIeman. And then came another and
another and another in quick success
sion. The wind was down the coast,
and the boat made succession OF sharp
tacks, lodging now far out into the sea
and then back again, while the water
grew rough under the touch OF the
freshening breeze, and 1t was with dif-
6culty that we could keep our feet.
Two hours more and daylight began
to break, but still we fished on, and the
easping mass in the bottom Of the boat
came half way to our boot tops. Then
as the dawn frightened we could begin
to see the fish when they rose from the
DEPTHS of the green waters to take the
hooks, sometimes dozen OF them trail
ing along behind the tempting bait,
doubtful, until one or two would dart
forward and snap. Many times two or
three would be hooked at once, and
twice we were hauling In all four OF the
lines at the same time.
Suddenly at three o'clock, when we
were fifteen miles up the coast and six
miles from land the barracuda stopped
biting, and the Greeks hauled In the
lines. "No more to-day" they said.
barracuda no bite now till morning"
and tho boat was headed toward home.
We had done we'll enough. In the
botsom OF the boat lay ffty-seven sill
very beauties, some quite five feet long,
others not over eighteen inches, al
thoagh more than a quarter OF q ton OF
fish! We were content TO sit quietly
down and watch the dancing waters
until with the sun falling low In the
west, we drifted calmly with the late
tide into the shelter OF the bay.

Among the many nuptial affairs OF
the past week, the Marcus-Kraus weo-
ding at the Jewish synagogue was prob
ably the most notable, on account or the
social prominence OF the contracting
parties and the elaborate scale upon
which the details were arranged. The
ceremony was performed at o'clock By
Rabbi b. A. Bonheim, in the presence
OF large assemblage of invited guests.
Potted lilies and other plants gave q
festal appearance TO the interior OF the
edihce, and the handsome costumes OF
the ladies were only surpassed by those
OF the bride and attendants. Miss Mary
Wilde officiated as organist, rendering
the Iohengrin wedding march upon
the entrance OF the bridal party, and
the familiar selection from Wagner's
"Tannhauser" after the nuptial knot
had been tied according to the impress
sive ceremony of the Hebrew church.
. The ushers were Chas. j. Beekman,
Lee Sonneborn, Gabe 5. Emsheimer,
Ben Horkheimer, Jesse Baumberger,
and Bernie Kraus. VIM. Simon, Of
New York, was the groom's best man.
Miss Nellie Kraus, the maid OF honor,
was attired in white China silk,
trimmed with rich oriental lace. Miss
Clara Kraus. one OF the attendants,
wore a becoming costume Of Nile green
silk with lace trimming, and Miss Lena
Marcus looked charming in a dress
OF pink silk, brocaded. The bride was
perfectly composed, and her natural
beauty was enhanced by pretty cos
tune Of white bengaline, trimmed in

the custom is its protection against
thoughtess remarks. Seeing friend
in mourning, one understands the case
at once and guards against questions
and illusions which might give pain.
Mourning is neither so deep nor worn
for so long a time as formerly. The
tyranny OF Grape is over, and unless she
chooses even widow may mourn with
out it. Physicians so utterly condemn
Grape wells as inimical to health and
eye-sight that now in this country they
are In nearly every case replaced by
nuns yelling, a soft, pretty material.
which costs less than Grape and lasts
three times as long. Even that is hurt
full to the eyes. and If the face must be
covered it should be done with bit OF
plain brussel net or Illusion.
For first mourning plain lusterless
goods, like henrietta cloth or bomba-
zine, should be used. In the second
stage, or what some witty writer has
called the condition Of mitigated afflic-
ton, woolens and lusterless silks can be
worn, and by way of trimming the dull
finished Jet can be used.

The length of time for which mourn
ing should be worn Is not really arbi-
trary, but two years is the term usually
considered proper for widow to wear
black, although there are women who
for reasons best known to themselves
keep 1t on for the remainder OF their
lives. For parent it should be worn
years; for sister or brother, one year
or longer: for other relatives, lesser
time, according to the action In the
matter Of other members Of the family.
The street dress illustrated is a COM
bination Of plain henrietta cloth and
heavy Grape cloth. The sleeves and
skirt trimmings are of Grape cloth, the
small pelerine aud cuffs are of coQue
feathers.
The two styles Of mourning bonnets
illustrate the graceful disposition OF
the wells. Clasps and pins for holding
the wells in position are found In dull
Jet and in the jet composition which
initiates Grape.
