CHANGING WEDDING FASHIONS.

Orange blossoms No Longer Necessary and
the Veil Sometimes Omitted.
The traditional wedding customs, like
many other old observances, are rapidly
disappearing, whether banished by the uni
versal skepticism or the times or neglected
because the age is too busy to allow any ele
ment that is not eminently prosaic and prac-
tical, 1t would bedifiicult to say. A bride may
still occasionally unconsciously advertise

rice among the ribbons other bonnet, while
the groonI's nat sometimes falls victim to
the too accurate aim of ell meant slip
per, but the symbolic rites from which these
effects result arc usually performed by chill
dren and are regarded as a juvenile freak.
Orange blossoms and myrtle are often re.
placed by roses, lilies, violets and other
flowers, equally appropriate to any occa-
sion, while the veil $ sometimes entirely
omitted. The wedding cake has in par

Rio JANEIRo, March TO- - There are
reasons to believe that Admiral da CANA
considers the chances OF success on the
part of the insurgents almost hopeless.
and that he is seeking an opportunity to
surrender to the foreign commanders,
This is thought to be due to the failure of
DE Mello to reinforce him from the south,
and to the fear that he may be over
whelmet at amy time by the arrival of the
government fleet.

VILLAGES MONTHLY STOPS.

With the issue of February | the pub
LEGATION of Walace's Monthly Will cease.
Started by John il. Wallace in 1879, the
journal made its critical mark, and was
in 1891. with the rest of the Register
plant. transferred to the ownership of
the American Trotting Register associa-
ton, in whose hands it has since proved
a possession involving financial loss.
During the earlier period of its existence
complete summaries of all races trOt-
ted and paced in the United States were
published from month to month a re-
ceived, and from this feature, amongst
others, was evolved the Near-Book.
The practice was maintained subsequent
to the institution of the work of refer
ence, the plates from which the sum
maries were printed being preserved
and utilized in its production. OF late.
however. it has furnished only incOm-
plete reports of harness racing, and its
usefulness was consequently impaired.
This season, for instance, so far no
ACCOUNT Vi Detroit due -hlDDOn meet
ing has yet appeared within the Month
ly's pages, though the summaries of all
other Grand Circuit events are given in
full. \ passing sheer at its officials is
all the recognition accorded the club
which conducted one of the most sue
cessful meetings of 1893. This manifest
injustice to owners of horses that won
races and took .recordS over the Ham
tramck course must be the result of OF e
of two causes. Mr.. Steiner, who has
been the controller of the Monthly's
destinies, must have.his time so fully
occupied in the many salaried positions
which he holds that he cannot discharge
properly his manifold duties, or actuated
by personal feeling he has striven by
emitting the summaries of its races to
cast odium on the Detroit Driving club.
In any case, the omission is ineXcusable,
and it is not strange that those in
authority over the registrar have de-
termined to discontinue the publication
of the Monthly when their salaricd
servant thus fails to properly conduct
its affairs Chicago HOrseman.

VARIOUS NOTES.
From Mirror and Farmer.

LIiOll mllIOI anu Farmer.
1t is reported that 1900 trottng bred
stations were gelded in kentucky in
lS93.
1t is estimated that there are nearly
1000 animals eligible to three-year-old
class of the kentucky futurity and that
the first one under the wire will receive
not less than $4,000.
Maud :. is twenty years old next
month. She has never produced foal.
is not now with foal and the chances are
she will never have one, as the proper
ton of fecund mares of twenty-one
years is relatively small and she has
been previously bred without result.
\ month or two more will see the end
of the unfavorable conditions under
which all branches of business have been
languishing, writes "IconOclasln in
the Stock Farm. "IIard times came
suddenly last summer, and will be apt
to take their departure about as rapidly
as they came. Whatever may be the
result of congressional action, that re-
suit is now pretty well discounted. In
my Judgment the coming season Will be
one of solid business prosperity"
Here is a bit of good advice for the
farmer-breeders from the practical pen
of NJ. +. Grattan in the Breeders Ga
zette: "Many farmers who venture to
breed mares to a trotting- bred horse
allow the produce to grow up in idleness.
No greater mistake could be made. Bet
ter never raise them than do this. Idle
ness is as fatal to character in the equine
as in the human race. The idea that it
detracts from the value of trotting-
bred horse to work him on the farm is
nonsense. 1t is the making of good,
reliable, hardy campaigners and road
sters. OF course it will knock out the
weeds, but It is better they should be
knocked out; they ought not to be
bred"
The well-knOwn horseman, Dick
Blumenthal of Hartford, did very cool
and plucky thing in that city a week ago
last Sunday. He was Jogging up Main
street with a two-year-old colt to
sulky in the morning, when pair of
heavy carriage horses attached to close
carriage dashed by him in a wild gallop
and evidently running away. At
glance he saw two ladies inside and a
little boy sitting up with the driver.
Blumenthal whipped up his colt to a
