No Reason Why He Should Appear in SucI
Poor Light.

No Reason Why He Should Appear in Such
Poor Light.
There is a modern definition of
bridegroom which is little cruel GER
tainly, but which pretty well describes
the position of that parsonage. A
bridegroom is said to be a thing in
black coat who attends weddings. And
it is quite true that in point of impor-
lance he ranks very low down indeed
in the eyes of the spectator. Yet there
is not the slightest reason really why
he should appear in such very poor
light as he too often does
He need not, for instance, come into
church or the room as if he were being
led to execution. He need not hang
his head as if caught in the commits
sion of crime, or blunder about with
an awl1wardness which makes every
girl present feel thankful she is not in
the brides shoes.
No doubt his position is painful and
trying. He feels he is the target for
all eyes, when, in fact, he is nothing
of the kind. Let him start by con-
vincing himself that no one is likely to
waste glance on him when there are
the bride and bridesmaids to be looked
at, and he will find 1t easier to pre-
serve his self-possession. He must try
to look happy, no matter how he feels.
Can worse compliment be paid to
the girl lie has induced TO marry him
than looking as if he had regretted his
folly? He must try to look manly, not
only for her sake, but his own, for she
is very likely to regret her decision at
the last moment when she sees how it
seems to affect him. He should look
proud.
Surely it ought to be the proudest
moment of his life; he should be elated,
and not ashamed. He should be in
good spirits, yet not carried away by
them.
jocular bridegroom is a thing one
has only to see once to remember with
horror for the rest of ones days.-Tit-
Bits.

Some Shadows That Autumn Fashions Are
Now Casting Before.
The smart white mohair gowns of
the summer serve admirably as demi-
saison dinner toilets.
New belts are of soft gay plaid silk,
knotted under a metal clasp at one
side, and are suggestively named
toreador.
All browns with reddish tinge are
IL especial favor for the coming cool
season, though no warnrobe will be
complete without one good black gown
for the street
The most modish and Partisan house
dress seen in high-class worlzroom
had the double Vatican plat at the
front instead of the back. The neck
was cut la ponpadour, and the plat
extended from it to the hem of the
gown. AS far as the waist line hand
some lace fell each side of the plat,
passing over the shoulders to form a
sailor collar over the princess back of
the gown.
Wide effects continue in millinery.
The early autumn hats look very much
overloaded in their abundance of os-
trich pIumes, wide ribbons and elab-
crate ornaments.
The women who come back to town
with black mol1air gowns lined in col
ored silk to match the bodice worn
with them need only small, full cape
of black velvet, trimmed with jet Van
dykes, to have handsome early autumn
toilets.
Framboise or raspberry red is a coll

How Fly's Trotting Sounds in Micro
phone.
The improvements which w. II. Soul
by has lately added to the microphone,
or ''sound magnifer,'' makes it one of
the most marvellous mechanical con-
trivances of the age. The special con-
struction of this instrument is of no
particular interest to anyone except
experts, but what is told of it's wonder
full powers as a magnifer of sounds
will entertain the young and old. as
we'll as the scientific and unscientific.
After the instrument had been COM
pleted, with the exception of few fin
ishing touches. Soulby found it abso-
lutely necessary to keep the door Of
his workshop tightly closed SO as to adj
NIT no sounds from the outside, other
wise the inarticulate rumblings give n
off by the ''ejector" would have be-
come unbearab BILE. Even with closed
doors the cap had to be kept constant
ly in place on the receiver to keep the
instrument from sending forth roar,
which previous investigation had
proved 60 be a combination Of sounds
produced by watch beats, breathing,
the hum of flies, etc.
A fly walking across the receiver of
the instrument made a sound equal to
horse crossing bridge, and when
Mr.. Soulby laid his arm across the box
the blood rushing in his veins gave
forth a sound which much reSembled
that made by the pump of large
steam engine. The playing of a piano
in house across the street was, when
elected from Soulby's machine, like
the roar of an avalanche, and the
washing of dishes in the kitchen of a
house across the alley made a sound
which the invent tor of the machine says
was "a burden to his soul" When
anyone entered the room, walked
gbout, coughed, touched the table or
door handles, the shrek which issued
from the ejector was most painful to
hear.
Hundreds of uses have been sUg
gested for the microphone, the most
practical being those Of blood circufa-
ton and lung tests. St. Louis Re

LEAvENwoRrH. May 21.-The Home
Riverside Coal and Mining company
posted notices at the mines to the effect
that on June 1 a general reduction in
wages and the price of mining will go
into effect.
The company is now paying for min
ing so cents a ton for mine run coal
After June / it will pay only 70 cents
for the same work. The 80 cent sched-
ule was esta blished about a year ago at
the time of the general strike.
The wages of all company men will
be reduced June 1. The term "com-
pany men" means drivers. watchmen,
the men in the mechanical department,
etc. These all receive certain stipula-
ted sum per month.
The reduction is to obtain until the
opening of the busy season. A member
of the company stated that the low price
of coal, resulting from sharp and persist
ent competition. is what is forcing the
proposed general reduction.

CHICAGO, May 21-Wheat opened
58c lower with July at 1874, on the fact
that the weather map throughout the
northwest showed temperature around
40 degrees at o'clock, Indicating a ris-
ing tendency. The fact that New York
opened nc lower also assisted in max
ing the weak opening. But cables were
strong and it appeared that frosts dur
ing the night were quite widespread,
with severe ones in some localities and
as the session progressed many reports
OF crop damage was received. The re-
suit WAS that prices soon advanced to
IA q, easing off to 1871 on sales to take
profits. Later Indianapolis reported
wheat and corn in central Indiana turn
ing yellow and an advance to 1871 fol-
lowed.
In spite of heavy receipts corn was
firm, sustained by crop damage reports.
July opened unchanged ct 5311, advanc
ed to 5414, and reacted to 535s, firming
again.
Oats opened sc lower with wheat, at
2916, advanced to 291s and eased off to
2938.
Provisions were easy on the large re-
| ceipts of hogs.
July pork opened 1G12 cents lower az

CHICAGO mAKKEr LETTER.

Furnished by the Topeka Grain and Stock
Exchange. Room 8. Columbian Building
Wheat-The opening was firm et
about yesterdays closing and advances
over a cent in 10 minutes on heavy buy
ing orders.
At IA there seemed to be an enormous
lot of realizing by parties who have been
carrying wheat from around 53c and the
market broke to 5158 in short time.
At this price the buying was very
heavy and the market took another up
turn and remained strong the balance of
the session and closed at about the top
for the day.
Export demand was good and the ex-
ports about million bushels for the two
days, which is very good, and shows that
foreigners are taking our wheat on the
advance
The "bull' fever is on in good shape,
and where they will put it is the only
question asked on change.
We predict 81 wheat before January
1, and the prospects are that it will soon
be in the 8Os, and the trade will have to
act prompt in order to get in on the
breaks and own some wheat
Corn and Oats-Corn showed consider
able strength and did not break with
wheat to any extent Cash demand is
all that could be desired, and rumors of
another frost tonight kept the market
strong and nervous. The closing at the
top and very firm with a net gain of 1ac
for the day. Oats were about steady,
trade light
Provisions-Pork opened easier on
account of the heavy run of hogs. The
market remained very firm throughout
and closed steady.
We look for pork to take another up
turn in a short time and advise buying
on all weak spots.

Adverse Laws Almost Destroy Breeding

Adverse Laws Almost Destroy Breeding
of ThOrOughbreds in Kentucky.
LEXINGTON, KY, May 21.-At a meet
ing of nearly score of prominent
breeders of throughbreds here there
was discussion of the &C
ton of the authorities at Chicago
in stopping racing there, and of the in
terferIng with racing in New York.
1t was unanimously agreed that ad-
verse Legislation in several states had al
ready crippled the business of breed
ing thorough breds in Kentucky,
until it was not more than one third as
remunerative as it was ten years ago.
The breeders think the trouble lies in
the fact that the gambling element has
been allowed to assume control of racing
instead of being kept in control by the
legitimate horsemen.
Unless something was done to elevate
racing and put it on the high plane it oc-
cupied less than a decade ago, the breed
ing business would be completely de-
stroyed and the valuable studs and costly
farms in this state would become almost
worthless.
