The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1896-12-26


A pretty wedding took place Wednes-
day afternoon at the residence of James
Crumley at Ashton. The parties were
Walter johnson, prominent young man
of Pawtucket, and Miss Minnie Crumley,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. James Crumley
OF Ashton. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. j. j. Woolley.
Miss Ella May Tinsley, neice of the
bride, presented her with a bouquet Of
bridal roses.
The bridesmaid was Miss Nellie Hall,
cousin of the groom, and Frank Crumley,
brother of the bride, acted as best man.
The bride was attired in a gown of hello
trope lansdown with lace trimmings and
wore the customary bridal veil. The
bridesmaid was attired in brown lans-
down with lace trimmings. A wedding
supper was served, and the bridal couple
left amid a shower of rice for Boston,
where their honeymoon will be spent.
They were the recipients of many presents.
Upon their return they will reside i'm this
city.

Chr.,ma. and Good Lit.r.,ur.,

Eleven months in the year the English
classics receive scant recognition from
the average book buyer, whose taste
runs to what DR. Conan Doyle calls
"ephemeral literature" In December
the classics have their inning. Their
virtues and utility arc appreciated when
it comes to selecting books for Christ
mas presents. Then the old poets, the
Elizabethan dramatists and the standard
novelists and prose writer's live again,
and the sweet singers, the artists in fc-
ton and the dainty cssayists Of our own
time, the authors upon whom il IL likely
posterity will set the stamp Of approval,
obtain the need Of larger recognition.

Saxon New Years.

The wassail bowl was an invariable ac-
compartment of New Years among the
Saxons and ancient Germans. The name
is derived from the Saxon wasshael, an
expression equivalent to "to your health. E"
The drinking of pledges on New Year 3
day was general, and pledging ones health
is an expression significant of the treachery
and bloodthirsty character of the times
When one rose To drink from the ceremo-
nial cup used ut feast, he was Obliged to
hold it with both hands, on account of its
SIZE and while he drank his next friend
stood with him, n drawn sword In his
hand. to prevent his being stabbed while
drinking. Exchange.

The Happy New Year.

The chill air is crisp, for the frost king dis
His tiny icc spears, which no hangs on the
trees
No fragrance Of summer, no petals OF roses
To brush as we pass: we see only dead leaves
Now, dear merry Christmas has swiftly de
parted.
A New Year stands scanning the ghosts Of the
past.
We gaze Ger his shoulders and feel heavy
hearted
To think months and seasons are fading 80
fast.
See, whirled in midair are white snowflakes
descending!
Each flake seems spirit dropped down from
above,
AS though for the New Year to earth they
come lending
A promise of purity. blessing and love.
The tall trumpet crceper, whose scarlet tinged
flowers
Last summer made gay its beautiful dress.
Stood yesterday dropping and leaficss for
hours
Now, snowclad. it CLEANS in renewed lowell
How they pile, how they gather, the SHOWS In
their whitenes~,
Led onward by silence, who moves without
sound!
Their feet shod in crystal and sparkling in
brightness
They drape frosted vesture o'er tree, bush
and ground
We thought with the summer all beauty was
dying;
We thought with the old year all JOY flown
away,
But spirits Of snow to our shorn world came
flying
And the New Year has blessings perhaps for
each day.
Hsrk! Wild bells are ringingi Yes. Joy bells
are hinping
Out welcomes of glee to another New Year.
May each moment bc crowded with laughter
and singing,
And dying its stay may no sorrow draw
near
Ring on, New Year bells Let thy ringing mean
gladness!
Ring all ills away, but ring loves warmth
within
Though the old year just died, and we saw IL
with sadness,
Yet happy may prove the New Year We be-

THE PERSIAN NEW YEAR.
No Beggar Asks For Aims In Vain on the
21st of March.

No Beggar Asks For Aims In Vain on the
21st of March.
There Is day in the Persian calendar of
which men, wcmen and children, one and
all, of this phlegmatic race bestir them
selves and roam about i'm frenZied glee.
That day Is the New Years day, according
to our chronology tho 21st of March. In
round, hollow boats which look like tur-
ban turned upside down they sail over the
emerald waters Of the Euphrates, and in
the center of the stream they dip the wa
ter with which they bcspatter afterward
tho walls Of their houses, gardens and fields
to keep at bay the evil spirit. The men
fall upon each others necks, kiss and Ca
ress each other and VOW eternal brotherly
love. No beggar, and their number Is le-
gion, asks i'm vain for aims on this day.
The ordinary Persian laborer and peddler,
who does not mind If his hands and feet
are dyed the color of the night on other
days, takes n bath and has his hair cut,
and II the suns rays are more than ordi-
narily fierce he orders his head shaved
clean of all hirsute ornament. Balancing
himself on the ground by holding on to
his toes, he delivers himself over to the
hands OF the Persian figaro, tonsorial art
ist Of no mean development. Several OF
these public BARRIERS have become quite
rich notwithstanding they perform their
hardest labor on this great holiday. In the
interior Of Persia, beyond the bleak desert,
is found on the banks Of deep river the
post station of Pullydallack, the name Of
which Is derived from a bridge that crosses
the river at that point, the "barber"
bridge, for it is the gift to his fellow men
Of whilom barber, who became nabob
in the pursuit of his profession-the only
barber, no doubt, who indulged In erecting
bridges for other men to cross. But the
Persian BARRIERS are considered the best
tonsorial artists i'm the orient.
Speaking Of the peculiar boats In which
the Pcrsiaps navigate their river, they
have retained that queer shape since time
immemorial for they were known in pre-
