Tho Bridal Veil.

The bridal veil is evidently of eastern
origin, being a relic Of the bridal canopy
held over the heads of the bride and BRIDE
groom. Among the Anglo-Saxons a sim
liar custom existed, but if the bride was a
widow it was dispensed with. According
to Sarum usage, fine linen cloth was
laid upon the heads of the bride and bride
groom and was not removed until the
benediction had been said.
The old British custom was to use ma
tures veil unadorned-that is, the long
hair of the bride, which was SO worn by
all brides, royal, noble and simple. Only
then did every one behold the tresses of
maidenhood in their entirety and for the
last time as after marriage they were
neatly dressed on the head. Among some
the tresses were cut and carefully slowed

Marriagcable Girls.

May I say jut few words to the girls
who are so anxious to get married. I won
der how many Of them would make good
wives? Look at your married friends.
How easy it is to pick flaws in them! But
in nine cases out of ten we will find the
same faults in ourselves if we look for
them.
Let us try to cultivate the virtues that a
good wife needs. The first is patience and
then unselfshness. We can find chances to
practice these two every day. Even If you
never marry, an unsclfish life will never be
unhappy or wasted Detroit Free Press.

Kinley said in part
There are now thirty-f1ve years from the
beginning Of the war and thirtyone or
more from it's close. The bitterness of the
war has long since disappeared.
"Sectionalism has given place to national
spirit, and patriotism has smoothed the
asperities Of partyism, while the preserva-
tion of the national honor constitutes the
great aim and purpose of all patriotic
American citizens. Cloud cheering.) 1t IS

Mr. Bryan dined at the Windsor Hotel

continued the conference with those mem

dressing the crowds from the rear of a
railroad car.
An announcement to this effect was pre-
pared by Chairman of the National Com
mi,tee Jones. 1t is follows:
1T has been decided that Mr.. Bryan
will enter actively into the campaign about
September 1, and continue on the stump
until the election. In order 10 obtain much
needed rest. and to prepare the letter OF
acceptance before the speecnmakinS be-
gins, he will spend the next two weeks al
some quiet place. not yet decided upon
The visit to Bath, Me, will therefore be
postponed until the latter part of Septem-
ber. when Mr.. Bryan will make a numbe!

Mr. ST. John stated that he did not know
when Mr.. Bryan would leave the city
Mrs. Bryan returned to the st. John resi-
dence after the dinner at the Windsor, and
remained in seclusion during the remainder
of the evening. Mr.. Bryan returned to the
house for the night shortly before mid

The Tug Dauntless Snils From Bruns
wick With Men md Arma

A Brunswick, Ga, dispatch. sent last
night. says: A Cuban filibuStering expedi-
ton undoubtedly left this port last night
On Tuesday night the tug Dauntless of
this port, the fastest tug in southern wa
ters, discharged her ballast on the dock
here. That night four wagon loads of
stores and boxes were put alb lard. Seventy
men We're aboard. The owners of the
D&untless have been in Jacksonville for
several days. United States Marshal Har-
rell and Spanish Vice Consul Torras are
here. They made every effort to appre-
hend the Dauntless without success.
No Omcial Information.
Up to noon no official information had been
received by the treasury officials concern
ing the reported departure of the tug
Dauntless with a filibustering expedition
from the vicinity Of Brunswick. Ga. The
Spanish legation had informed the depart
ment that a large party of Cubans had left
Tampa, Fla, for Jacksonville. and 1t was
supposed the expedition would leave from
that point. The customs officers and the
revenue marine officers were instructed to
keep a sharp lookout
The Department of Justice also instructed
the marshals and deputy marshals from
Wilmington, Del. to Florida to cooperate
with the treasury officers to prevent any
expedition leaving. No reports have been
received from any of these officers.
No information has been received as to
the whereabouts of the Laurada. which has
given the officials some concern for several
days.
The report that the cutter Boutwell, which
has been at Jacksonville, sailed after the
Dauntless, under orders from Washington
is denied. as the department has had no
information of the sailing of the Dauntless
The commander of the Boutwell, has gen.
eral orders which would take him in pursuit
of the DauntlesS, but the opinion is ex-
pressed that the latter had such start that
it would be impossible for the cutter to over
take her until she was far out at sea. One
Of the collectors of customs has raised the
point that no matter if vessel was beyond
the three-mile limit, If she had sailed from
the United States. she could be considered
as upon United States soil and arrested

officials here,
