Married Under Difficulties.

When the Delaware river runs high
in the neighborhood of Port Jervis,
crossing it is matter of some difficulty.
In the early days when Port Jervis was
frontier settlement, and Parson Van
Benschoten ministered to the Reformed
Dutch Of the bailiwick, he was once
called upon to marry a young couple
under very trying circumstances.
The stream was SO high and so rapid
that to ''skiff" across it was impossible
But the young people were bound to
be married, and the parson was not

He appeared on one bank, and the
young couple on the other-the best
they could do. The parsons stento-
rian voice resounded amid and above
the rushing of the water, as he pro-
ceeded with the marriage service, and
at last pronounced his young friends

AS he saw them turn gaily away and

roared out:

Teaching French Idloms.

Mr.. Lowry is a newspaper man, with
a moderate income and one child, a boy
of IL or 12 years. Like most newspa-
per men, perhaps, Mr.. Lowry believes
that the modern languages have not
had their rightful place in the minds
of educators. He is determined that
his boy shall have some acquaintance
with at least French and German.
To this end he is already sending
him to a French master, who gives
him three lessons week. and is accus-
toned to be paid every Monday. Last
week Mr.. Lowry found his finances
somewhat depressed and sent Henry to
his lesson without the usual bank
note.
That evening the ambitious father
did as he always does-looked over the
boys exercise; and this is what he
found Henry doing his best to put into

they had none of their own. They
came to swap horses and stories," to

The fact is also worth commenting
upon that the leading New York

than half a columns space to the land

day. saying, among other things:
