GROUNDS FOR COMPLAINT.
What Happened When the Tailor Mixed
the Wedding Suits.


the Wedding Suits.
I'm on the warpath," declared the
young man who is yet in the first
quarter of his honeymoon, says the De-
troit Free Press. IF | get judgment
of less than $4,000 against that tailor
of mine I'll appeal the case and go to
the end of the road with him. There
should be a special statute aimed at
such offenses as his
What's your claim against him."
"Surest case you ever heard of. I've
got him where he can't wiggle. You
know that l was married week before
last at the residence of the brides
parents They live fifteen miles from
Detroit and decided to ride out there
on my bicycle the day before the cere-
mony. The tailor had made my we'd
ding suit, but it needed pressing and
was to be sent to me that night by ex-
press, without fail. l impressed it
upon him time and again that the de-
livery was imperative. Next morning
along came the clothes neatly packed
/ looked them over and then hung
them away till the fateful hour ar
rived.
When it came time to dress prog
ressed with fair degree of equanimity
till / donned the breeches Then
had cold sweats and something that
was mighty near fainting spell. l
yanked the braces till I stOnd IN nv
toes and even then the pantaloons
were six inches too long. They were
big enough for the Colossus of Rhodes.
| tried the vest and had to button it
to keep it from sliding off, while the
coat never touched me. / said more
things than / ever had before in my
life, but that couldn't provide we'd
ding suit and l had to be married in
about as tacky an old bicycle outfit as
you ever saw. / was guyed, laughed
at and Inundated at least $50, 900
worth
When | went roaring and foaming
into the tailor establishment there was
a 250-pounder threatening to wreck the
institution. He fourished the rem
nants of my own suit that he had
tried to don for his own wedding, rip
ping seams and scattering buttons till
the clothes looked as if they might
have been hung out to dry in a cy-
clone. Now we're both after the tail.
or and were going to get him.

Big family.

The seventeenth annual reunion Of
the Harlan family took place in West
Chester, Pa, last week. This is one
of the largest families in the country,
with members in every state in the
Union. The 900 or more members Of
the family in the assembly are de-
scendants Of George Harlan and his
family, who settled in Chester county
200 years ago. The ship in which they
sailed from England was wrecked on
the Atlantic coast just 100 years ago.

Queer English Charity,

There are several places in England,
according to London Answers, where
any one can for the asking have a
glass of beer and a piece of bread. One
of them is the Hospital st. Cross, near
Winchester. Any person who chooses
to apply at the porter's lodge there is
provided with horn cup of beer and a
wedge of bread. The custom originated
with a generous old gentleman, who
left sum Of money to provide all
ccmers with this refreshment in per-
Detuity.

Corked Bottles at Sea.

Numbers of experiments have been
made to test the speed and destination
of corked bottles thrown into the sea
at various portions OF the world. The
most remarkable example ever heard Of
was that in which a bottle travelled
5000 miles in about two years and a
half, roughly, at the rate of six and a
half miles a day. 1t travelled from SO
deg. south latitude and go deg. west
longitude to Western Australia
