SHE WAS HUNGRY.
The Bride In Chinese Wedding Deprived
Of Her breakfast.


The Bride In a Chinese Wedding Deprived
of Her breakfast.
A Chinese wedding party in Canton
recently lost one of the most important
items in the wedding ceremony-the
bride, says the North China Herald
The little lady had been carried to her
bridegroom's home, hidden in the GUS
tomary embroidered red satin chair dec
GRATED with flowers, and put down at
the door to await the auspieious mo-
ment for crossing the threshold. Her
escort had come long way and were
weary, so they retired into q neighbor-
ing opium den and went to sleep.
They awoke late in the evening,
rushed to the door, and, concluding the
bride had left carried the empty chair
back to its loft. Soon after the bride
groom and his family, dressed In their
very best, lighted the candles and their
incense sticks, laid out rice and the or
thodox viands, and opened the door. No
sign Of either chair or bride.
They Immediately decided that she
had been carried off by brigands, and
alarmed the whole district, the search
going on fruitlcssly, At last the dis
tracted bridegroom woke up the chair.
bearers and they, struck by a sudden
idea, ran off to the loft.
They opened the chair, and there sat
the poor little bride, stiff. frightened
and hungry. She had felt that she was
being carried off. but dared not cry out,
as no well-bred BRIDE ought to open her
lips till after the marriage ceremony,
Hence all the trouble,

The Pope Of Rome writes an
interesting letter for publication,
on the recent celebration BY the
Italians Of the 25th anniversary Of
the entrance into .Rome by the
Italian troops. His Holiness
makes strong argument for the
recovery of his temporal power,
which will fall with no avail upon
the very deaf ears Of the Italians.
The Pope claims to be 0 prisoner
In his palaces, and the descendants
Of the Caesars will likely keep
him. He should move his house
hold effects to America where his
religious and temporal freedom is
guaranteed to him so long as he
does not violate the laws Of the
land. The Catholics high in auth
ority have among them the bright
est lntellects Of the world, ever
alert, sagacious and diplomatic, If
there is any potency in the arts Of
statesmen, then the aged, wise and
powerful9Pope willsone day see the

There is an immense crop Of corn
in Kansas, and at the -same
time several populist papers have
suspended. This indicates that
populist editors are not 80 green as
they look They know that q pop

and there is no discomfort. Do
away with discomfort, and there is
none 50 lonely as the populist
editors and aOthello's occupation
is gone forever.
