A BRIDES TERROR.
Exciting Scenes In Church During the
Brinckmnn- Linton Marriage.

Exciting Scenes In Church During the
Brinckmnn- Linton Marriage.
Apropos of weddings, the scene in a
fashionable London church when Mr.
Theodore Brinckman, eldest son of Sir
Theodore Brinckman, baronet, was
married to Miss Linton, stepdaughter
of Lord Aylesford, is likely to lead to
remarkable action in law. Mr..
Brinckman was only divorced from his
first wife few months ago, and it was
the wife who divorced the husband.
There are many clergymen of the
church of England who are of the opin-
Ion that Mr.. Brinckman's second mar
riage, IL permitted at all, should have
been free from religious observance,
and the Rev. William Black. who Is
one of the Cowley Brotherhood, made
a formal protest against the wedding
proceeding. There was awful excite
ment in the church. which was filled
with people of fashionable and aristo-
cratic position. Mr.. Black was sup
ported by the Duke of Newcastle and
another clergyman, and the church for
a few minutes resounded with excited
voices. The poor little bride turned as
white as death, but the officiating
clergyman, Rev. Mr.. Ker Gray, de-
clned to accept the protest and con-
tinued reading the service that made
the two one during the whole of the
disturbance. On leaving the church a
friend of Mr. Brinckman called Rev.
Mr.. Black scoundrel and threatened
to thrash the little Duke of Newcastle.
A policeman was called and cards were
exchanged and Mr.. Black drove away
from the procession Of wedding car
riages after saying he intended to VEN
tilate his grievance and the insult to
his church by bringing action against
the gentleman who in his Indignation
had called him by an offensive name.

mails When 1t Hunted the Hunter.
From the Montreal Witness.
A correspondent writing from Mecu-
mona. Muskoka, gives an interesting
account of an adventure he had with
moose few weeks ago, while en-
plsyed in making a toboggan trail
through one Of the pine forests in that
section of the country. While engaged
at work he came across moose yard
and on looking around saw one of the
giants of the Forest about fifty yards
distant. The story of his encounter is,
perhaps, best told in the correspon-
dents own words

moose turned and walked behind a

was thrown down and around the tree

my turn to run, for the moose charged

one who has not heard moose roar can
form but little idea of the terrible bel

to strike me with his front feet he
