VEST HAVEN VOTES.

During the summer the social com mittee of the Christian Endeavor soci- ety of the Congregational church have held several outings, thereby estab- fishing much sociability and closer friendly relations among the young peo- pie of the church. These excursions have gone to various places, Lake Sal tonstall, Woodmont, West Rock, Light house Point, etc. The last one of these outings will take place on Saturday next, leaving West Haven at 3:30 p. m. and going via the Winchester avenue and Morris Cove roads to Lighthouse Point. As this is the last of the season it is hoped that it will be as fully at- tended as the previous ones, especially as those in charge have made extra efforts to make the day a more than usually enjoyable one. The committee are as follows: Mrs. E. A. Dickerman, Misses Lizzie Wadsworth, Carrie Put nam and Norma Squires and Fred A. Kindrick.
 The board of warden and burgesses have voted that after October 4, 1894, no interments shall be made in the cemetery on the southeast corner of the green.

A Bride in Brooches.

The Sketch gives picture of a curl ous wedding ceremony which has been celebrated at Christ church under the auspices of the New Zealand Dress Re- form association. The bride, Miss Kate Walker, and the bridegroom, MT. J. R.. Wilkinson, had already joined hands by publishing a pamphlet on Dress Re- form and What it Implies" The enter prising bride, like Strephon in Pa tience" was divided into two parts, as 1t were, the upper part of her dress con- sisting of the conventional brides veil, and the lower sinking into modified pair of brooches. Her costume was of stone-blue bengaline, with vest and rev. CTS of white silk, embroidered with gold. She wore beautiful wreath of jessamine instead of the time-honored orange blossom, and, although gloves were discarded, veil was worn-not, however, over the face, but thrown back, and falling in long graceful folds over the shoulders. The bridesmaid wore suit of cream silk, with a lace collar. The lady in whose house the wedding took place wore brown cash mere suit, trimmed with handsome braid. The suits were nearly all of the same design, neatly fitting knickers long coat, with revers and long vest the coat being edged with cord to match the material. Most of the gen. tlemen were in knicker costume.

Unlocked for things have been found
in unlikely places, but there has proba-
bly, been no discovery more remarkable
than that Of Balzac's dressing gown in
the possession Of the king Of Dahomey
Monarchs are rarely literary, and his
dusl1y majesty, one would think, was
the very last Of them to have set much
value upon the personal relic Of a novel
ist, however distinguished. Nevertheless
the French found it in the royal apart
ment at Abomey There were some in
genious theories founded upon this cir
cumstance. One Of the amazons, it was
thought, might have been a novel read
er and had sent to Paris to secure the
interesting memento, and on the affair
coming to the knowledge of her sover-
eign had fastened to say she had pur-
chased it for his own shoulders, for in
deed he always wore it upon state occa-
sions. 1t was not dressing gown such
as literary persons in this country are
wont TO wear of second class flannel
worn at the edges-but Of purple velvet
embroidered with gold. AS a matter of
fact, it had been given to Balzac by
some Of his admirers, and after his
death had been bought by a dealer in
curiosities, who had placed it, with 9TH
ep snowy articles, on the west African
market 1t is sad to think how a plain
tale will put down"-that is, destroy
the materials Of a fine romance. -
