The Peculiar Experience of Tenor
Singer.
CLEVELAND, Feb. There seem TO be
several miles of red tape wound about the
marriage ceremony in Germany, accord
ing the experience of Edwin ii. Douglass.
young Clevelander who resides in Ores
den. Up to last July he was tenor soIost
in the Old Stone church. He went to
Dresden to complete his musical educa-
ton, and there became engaged TO Miss
Helene Veel. The marriage was to have
been solemnized in November. 1t was
postponed on account of certain
formalIties required by the German
government.
Douglass wrote to his parents, asking
them to go before a notary and make afii-
davit to the fact that they consented to
the marriage of their son. They COM
piled, and two weeks later another letter
came, asking that the sons certificate of
baptism be sent to Dresden, as it must be
placed on record there before the cere-
mony could be legally performed.
These delays caused two postpone
ments, and early in December another
letter was received by the parents from
young Douglass. He wrote, facetiouslv.
that the Germans were doubtful as to
whether he had ever been born.
and required that certificate
of birth, signed by the parents
and attending physician, must be pro-
duced before the matrimonial alliance
could be formed. While waiting for news
the parents were surprised to receive an
other letter, about week ago, to the effect
that Dresdentes were slow and deliberate
in the affairs of the heart, and that all of
the document that had been forwarded
must be on file two or three weeks before
the wedding.
1T no more documents are required, Mr..
Douglass and Miss Veel will be made one
early in February. The lady is said to he
the scion of noble and wealthy family.
beautiful and accomplished. Mr.. Doug
lass is a singer of much promise.

HETTY TALKS.
Americas Richest woman Has
Iongur.

Americas Richest woman Has a
Tongur.
NEW YORK. Feb. 1.-The curious dis
pute between Mrs. Hetty Green. Lawyer
j. L. Tracy and Referee II. II. Anderson
converted the latter's court of reference,
Friday, into a serio-comic theater. Mrs.
Green, without an attorney. insisted on
conducting her own case, and she did so
with such an abundance of speech and
argument that no Roadway could be made.
AT last the referee ordered the richest
woman in America out of his Office to
finish her declarations somewhere else.
The action begins with the appli-
cation of Henry A. Berling. the last sur
viving executor of the will of the father of
Mrs. Green, who died about 30 years ago,
10 get rid of his responsibility.
Mrs. Green objected to the closing of
accounts because she says the estate has
been badly administered. She entered
Referee Anderson's office where the hear
ing was held, and announced that she
wanted her case conducted by Charles w.
Ogden of San Antonio. Tex.
MIR. Ogden" said she lis the attorney
who has successfully fought my five cases
against c. p. Huntington and have every
confidence in him. He can be bought and
sold no more than lean. He cannot prac-
tice in New York courts, but will engage
Ellhu Root or Mr.. Peckham and act upon
his advice"
Referee Anderson grew indignant at the
talk that continued and told Mrs. Green
TO keep quiet. AS he ordered the case adj
journed to Feb. 10. Mrs. Green got up and
began a speech. The referee fairly thun-
dered: "Mrs. Green, you do not seem to
be familiar with the state of this case nor
your duty of behavior here. If you have
anything outside of the evidence go into
the hallway and say it,"
Mrs. Green left the room hurriedly and
in the hall started into a hysterical sketch
of herself, which was promptly checked
by a young man who later turned up as
an employe of the Chase National bank.
She went to the bank and there in a pri-
vate room she held forth alone to her
hearts content. She marked Joseph
Choate for the warmest attack.
"Mr. Choate is the daddy of all this
worry for me-" she said. "And il makes
me laugh. | can remember when l was a

The flowers of some sensitive plants
are as sensitive as the leaves.
EVERY saint in the calendar is said
to be provided with a floral emblem.
No PLANT will produce flowers un-

grows.
EVERY ancient hero and god had
flower specially consecrated to his
honor.
THE Venus fly trap produces juice
that to nearly all insects is deadly

THE marigold goes to sleep with the
sun and remains quiescent until sun

TIE saffron is valuable as dye. 1t
grows wild in many parts of south
Europe.
IN all mythology and folklore white
flowers are supposed to spring from
tears.
A PIONEERING plant is said to abstract
from the soil two hundred times its
own weight of water.
THE coral flowers, so called, are ami
mails. A coral reef resembles bed of
anemOneS.
SOME plants, as the peach tree, send
forth their flowers before the leaves
haze started.
Double flowers are generally the re-
suit of cultivation and always an
abnormal growth.
THE rose among the Romans was the
emblem of secrecy, hence the phrase
sub rosa,
IN all mountainous countries flowers
are found growing up to the line Of
perpetual snow.
THE catalogues and floral dictionaries
give the names of seven hundred and
fifty kinds of roses.

The Problem OF Economy.

No subject is more interesting to the
general public than the cost of living.
The problem the majority are trying to
solve is how to save money and make
the best possible appearance. Usually
it is discovered that the bank account
increases as the family curtails its
wants. The length of the bank ac-
count is in proportion to the increase of
the things not bought. Once In awhile,
writes a philosopher IN Outing, when
patience is exhausted, because even
going without does not bring the de-
sired results, one is tempted to accept
that fallacious definition of economy:
Economy is going without something
you do want, in case you should some
day want something you will not
want Economy is the promise of the
future, the despair of the present, with
most of us. We act on the same prin-
ciple that governs us in the treatment
of our favorite sins; we are waiting for
the miracle of accumulated strcsgth to
overcome them. We would scale
mountains without walking in the mo-
notonous road that leads to them
After all, what is economy but pro-
portion? TO refuse to spend what is
Legitimate, in order to secure future
wealth, is putting a heavy mortgage on
life with the prospect of very uncer-
tain retsrns To spend regardless of the
future is to ignore an investment that
makes a sure return. The courageous
are those who live in harmony with an
educated conscience. These build on
sure foundation. They are the only
true, the only wise, as well as the only
courageous people. May their num-
bers increase.

1t has been quite a feature of the
last summer season that a number of
brave rescues have been made, not only
by men, but also by women and chill
drcn. These results show perceptibly
and eloquently the changing of the
conventional standards Till of COM
paratively recent years self-reliance
and courage We're looked on as eXclu-
sively masuline virtues, ana the wom-
auly character was considered as more
strillingly in relief when displaying ut
ter dependence and inability TO face or
fight danger. Now, owing to the phys
ical and mental training OF women, the
new IDEAS that none of her natural re-
sources are to be sti1ed, but rather to
be developed, have obtained sway, and
with their ascendency has come the
downfall of the theory that q woman
who has nerve and coolness enough to
help herself and aid others in case of
danger is unseXcd thereby. Graceful
faints are no longer characteristic of
the woman of to-day. She may have
lost some of her angelic air, but the
atmosphere of sturdy common sense
which has taken its place is much more
refreshing for the public and infinitely
safer for herself.

NEARLY all attempts to make convict
labor profitable have failed, but Missis-
sippi, under peculiar conditions, seems
to have succeeded. Last year the state
abandoned the vicious plan of farming
out the labor Of convicts to contractors
and purchased farrn OF ten Thousand
acres on which to raise cotton Nearly
all of the convicts are field hands-vir-
tually expert workmen-and it is re-
ported that the managers of the farm
have turned fifty thousand dollars over
to the state treasury, representing the
profit made after paying all expenses
This represents five dollars an acre, a
good return on the investment
Another farm will probably be pur-
chased, that work may be provided for
all the convicts. There appears to be
no objection from free laborers to this
use of the convicts, but there are very
few states that could successfully fol
low Mississippis example.
