In acouple of days Louise accompanied
her dead husband back home. All,
what a returningl She that could not
feel ever serious at leaving, returned
almost mad with grief. Louise Diener)
Lynnehurst never came back. The
clay tenement that once held her re
turned, but alas, where was shea The
poor young girl had singularly left her
old self there at TravellerstOwn where
that messy earth crushed her husbands
life out. After the burial of her hus-
band Louise lived again with her pa
rents. Within q month her sweet old
mother died. That added to her grief
in such a measure that she sank and
was Ill some weeks. Her father was
greatly grieved about her mothers
death and Louise was hardly recovered
when he gave up life to dwell with her
whom be cherished.
Poor Louise, she had lost them ell,
father, mother and husband. And
With them too went her youthfulness
and gaiegy. But she had left to her a
magnificent home, wealth, beauty the
nor marked for it's sadness, and plen
ty of friends who would gladly have
sympathized for her if she would only
have let them. But she locked the
great doors OF that home that had been
such e joy to her. She torsook the
place that had been the scene Of her
life end love, and turned her back
upon the friends that SO longed to
sOOtho her because to even see them
made her remember that her best
friends we're dead.
She went farther south to a SUMMER
climate than her own to live with her
uncle and aunt. Her uncle 0 vned an
extensive estate called Fair Grounds in
the centre of which stood his house
always called Lynde House. This house
had for many years been the centre of
much life and hustle. The Lyndes
naq Deen society people III the strict
sense of the word, but upon the death
of a daughter and only child they had
retired and now kept Lynde House
quiet. Here was Louise loved and
cared for but secluded. Many good
men would have followed her into her
seclusion but were forbidden. Here is
one thing she saved out of her old life
and kept it with her, a painting of her
youthful husband. 1t hangs low on
the wall of her room, her only COM
panion, her solace, her star of guidance
and ell she has that interests her in
the life she leads. Here we find what
there is left Of Louise Diener) Lynn
hure- locked up with a picture.

HE CAN SIGN THEM TODAY.
Resolutions Will Be Given to President Cleveland
 Today.

WASHINGTON, April 6.--The Cuban resolutions will be officially brought to the attention of the President tomorrow by the Secretary of the Senate, who will present him with an enrolled copy of the document. Ordinarily, concurrent resolutions are not forwarded to the President, as they do not require his signature, but these resolutions will be laid before him as the Armenian resolu- tions were, because they express the opinion that he should tender the offices of the United States to Spain for the recognition of Cuban inde- pendenee and are therefore direc- tion to him if Congress can direct the President in such proceedings.

WERE FIX PRESIDENT HARRI SON AND MRS. MARY LORD DIMMICK YESTERDAY
 AFTERNOON.
Only Few Intimate Friends and Relatives of the Bride and
 Groom Present.

NEW YORK, April 6.-The marri- age of Mrs. Mary Lord Dimmiek to General Benjamin Harrison was solemnized at St. Thomas Church this afternoon at 5:30. Dr. Wesley Brown, rector, of1iciated at the cer- emony. The marriage, which took place in the presence of twenty rel atives and select friends of the bride and groom, was a very private af- fair. The edifice was not decorated in the lavish style that marked the nuptials of Miss Vanderbilt and Miss Whitney, the flowers used being lilies, which were arrangdd in ex- quisite taste, and the chancel looked even prettier and more effective than at the two previous weddings. Mrs. Dimmick arranged all the de- tails regarding the decoration. The altar was relieved with palms, trop- ical plants and banks of white li- laos, surmounted with punches of ascension lilies. On either side of the altar was placed a large vase of white lilaes.
 The wedding gown, which was of pearl gray gros- grain silk, was made by Madame Dente-Mathe. The skirt was plain with a short train falling from the waist in full, soft godets, Louis XVI coat open ing in front over a full vest of white chiffon with broad revers draped with rare old Honiton lace half a yard wide, extending down each side of the front and draped over the hips, forming a coat effect The sleeves were long and full, ta- pering to the arm below the elbow and ending in fall of lace at the wrist. Around the neck there was plush collar of palest blue, over which was entwined robe of mag niticeht pearls, fastened with di- anond clasp, the gift of the bride groom. She carried large bou- quet of lilies of the valley. The bonnet worn by the bride was a dainty French creation composed oi lace and blue velvet with white aigrette held in place by jewel pins.
 The groom wore a well made Princh Albert coat, worn closely buttoned, with trousers Of dark gray. White gloves and white silk four-in-hand completed the bridegrooms attire. He wore q boutinere'of the lily of the valley. Gen. and Mrs. Harrison left for In
