Bridal Calls.

A very general inquiry is, on the
part OF young brides, how bridal calls
should be returned. One need only say
the rules that apply to ordinary calling
are equally in force on these occasions.
and the bride should follow them as
any other married lady would do. It is
quite an obsolete idea to suppose that
a bride must remain at home day af-
ter day to receive those who NAV ham
pen to call. On the contrary. the un-
to-date bride allows her acquaintances
to take the chance of finding her at
home or not, and returns the calls she
has received in due course as quickly
as may be. She takes up the life she
intends leading from the moment of
her return, and does not give herself
the penance of an enforced stay within
doors during each afternoon of week
following week until all possible cal
lers have been duly received. She does
not wish to show her wedding presents
as the majority of her friends have al
ready seen them, and she does not in
tend offering wedding cake to callers
as it is not the fashion to do so and
she prefers to make engagements for
herself for each day.

8 At the Foot OF Her Mother TOmb. 8
s. Mary Non1ton Of Blue Rapids, Kan, Becomes Mrs.
8 A. SCANNED Over PARENTS Grave. 8.

Blue Rapids, Kan, Correspondence:
NO Stranger wedding ceremony was
ever performed than the one which
last Sunday united Alfred Scanned
and Mary Moulton in this place. They
STOOD hand in hand at the foot of
grave in the Oak Hill cemetery and
were there made man and wife, at the
grave OF the mother of the bride, who
had blessed and approved the union,
but who died before she saw the pair
united. Z
Inc little company gathered there IN
the city Of the dead looked strangely
solemn in the fading light of the
February day and there was little to
suggest the gayety Of wedding in the
solemn words of the minister or the
grave faces of bride and groom.
For many years Miss Moulton, the
bride, had been fatherless and between
Ter and her mother there had grown
up an intimacy and affection different
In many ways from that ordinarily ex-
hlb1ted by mother and daughter. They
: were more like loving sisters. They
were friends and companions and the
tenderness and devotion each exhibit
ed toward the other had often been re-
marked by their friends. And when
over a year ago Alfred Scanned came
a-Wooing and wrought himself around
the gentle heart of the daughter until
she felt her life would not be complete
without him the mother joyed in the
union and blessed it and said it was
well. She entered into all the prepara-
tons for the browning vent in the life
OF her daughter with more than
mothers zeal and devotion. She was
as earnest in her work for the happi-
ness OF Mary as though it were her
own nuptial day which was approach
ing.
The wedding was set for Feb Is of
last year. The guests were hidden and
the feast was set and it remained only
for the words of the minister to Join
the lives of those who had chosen one
another from all the world for all
time. Then came sorrow and suffering
and the gaunt hand of death. On the
eve Of the wedding the faithful moth
er was stricken with illness and the
wedding was postponed. She grew
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1898-03-17

rapidly worse and on Feb. 10, the day
set for the ceremony, she passed away.
The shock of her mothers death al
most carried away the bride-to-be. She
withered under it and when at last she
began to recover her health and
strength she went every day to the
cemetery to kneel upon the sod which
sheltered the mortal remains of her
whom she loved so dearly and to pray
for her eternal happiness.
Inc young man came with her, he
who was ready to cleave to her in sick
tness and death, and, kneeling there on
that green mound, it came to them that
1t would be fitting they should be we'd
ded there above the mothers grave
and on the anniversary of her death.
Thus it came about that this strange
ceremony was performed in the acre
of mourning amid the cleaning head
stones and the weeds of sorrow. Last
Sunday few friends were hidden to
the wedding, and when they were as
sembled at the grave the young man
and the young woman came down the
avenue of bare and leafless trees hand
IN hand. At the foot of the grave they
halted and the minister, standing in
front of the marble shaft erected in
memory of the mother, made them
man and wife.
Thus was the idea of this odd SER
vice carried out. The church was beau
tiful Oak Hill cemetery; the lights
were the slanting rays Of the sun play
ing hide-and-seek with the shadows of
the great trees; the flowers were the
loving mementoes placed upon the
mounds of the sleeping dead; the
music was the soft carol of birds and
the requiem of gentle wind, and the
altar was a mothers grave.
All around the little company were
the graves of the dead; above them
arched the blue sky; the tender charms
OF nature were everywhere displayed;
the sounds of priestly prayer and Or
phan's sigh, gentle breeze and twitter-
ing birds mingled in an anthem from
nature to natures God, and the fast
declining sun, in final burst of gold
en- glory, gilded the mothers monu-
ment and shone radiantly upon the
young bride like benediction.

ART STUDENT AT MUNICH.
Life Is One Continual Round of Hard
Work.


''First of all get rid of all illusions
on the subject
The artists life is often regarded as
dream OF freedom and gayety, says
the International Magazine. In the
first place, it means the student life in
Munich, for the Isartown is to be rec
ognized as the. capital of German art,
the seat of Apollo and the Muses.. In
the neighborhood of Munich the Alps
raise their snow-capped crests
against the sky, and the thousands of
paths which lead to the mountains are
so many attractions to diversion. The
would-be student pictures to herself

ing parties on the Starnbergersee- in
short, it is like vision of the prom
lsed land, and, like all cher visions,
does not materialize. Such dreams are
no nearer the reality than are other
dreams. AS a matter of fact. the life
OF the young art student is one con-
tinual round of work from early morn
to dewy eve. One who expects to de-

cess to art needs, besides the necessary
talent, earnest application, logged
perseverance, good health, and. last
but not least, money. There are. alas!
many students whose daily question is:
How shall ever be able to hold out
to the end? And, even if I succeed
what is it all WORTH" For it is not
an easy matter to find fitting emplov-
ment when the student has become 2
fiull-fedged artist. Because of such
difficulties students often have their
times of depression, during which the
beauties of the students life fade like
the dreams of childhood in the pres
ence of stern reality. The social and
other advantages offered by Munich.
which advantages are so great an at
traction to the neophyte, are not for
the art student. Society and the nat
ural beauty of the surroundings can
be enjoyed but very sparingly. because
the strength has to be husbanded for
study.

ENGINES OF DEATH.

some Debatable Matters in the Methods
of Modern Marine Warfare.
We know that the bigger the gun the
less likely it is to hit the target, but,
again, our data only suggests that the
best possible lies in a mean-a mean
that is left to the individual judgment.
Already, says the Forum, the French
have discarded it for a heavier weapon,
and we may look to see other nations
following suit. The ram, tested by re-
suits, has proved itself more likely to
be fatal by accident than by design.
From an absolute belief in it, opinion
gradually changed till it was spoken of
French, previously so partial to enor-
nous spurs, so far discarded their old
ideals as to build their battleship Breh-
nus without any ram at all. Yet, at
the same time, the United States were
busy over the Katahdin, a ram" pure
and simple, she is now in the navy.
France is building ram-bowed ships
once more, and the new second-class
British cruiser Arrogant and her sis
tiers are short, doubled ruddered ships,
specially designed for use as rams
Where, then, lies the truth about the
ram? The torpedo again forms debat-
able land With the torpedo vessel I
shall deal further on; here we need but
consider the ships torpedo tube. The
torpedo is a destructive weapon, but it
can not be used at range much ex-
ceeding a quarter of a mile. At that
distance the big gun can hardly miss,
and its devastation would be quite as
appalling as any that the less accurate
torpedo could effect. Moreover, the
slow speed of torpedo-slow in COM
parison with a projectile- infinitely
increases the risk of damaging a friend
instead of the enemy, aimed at. Also,
every part of the ironclad not heavily
armored being searched by quick fire
shell, the torpedoes are likely to be
exploded in their tubes long ere they
can be employed. So much is this rec
ognized that the underwater tube alone
is being adopted for new designs, while
the above water tube is condemned en-
Hrely. But submerged tubes are diff
cult to use. In the British navy, GER
tainly, the detection Of the torpedo

CIGAR POISONING.

Something That Is Little Understood
by Dealers or Smokers.
The peculiar effect of cigar smok.
ing at some times and under some cir
cumstances known as cigar poison
ing, said leading cigar dealer to
Washington Star reporter, sis little
understood by the trade or makers
themselves. Regular smokers are now
and then affected by it. Sometimes
smokers consume an entire box of CT
gars and often number of them
without experiencing any trouble with
cigar, when all at once they smoke
cigar which completely knocks them
out IN a way that they do not get over
1t for several days. Physicians think
1t is on account of the physical condi-
ZION OF the smoker at the time and that
the trouble does not occur from any
particular cigar, and that any cigar
would produce the same effect. It is
rather a serious thing in the cigar
business, for it is certain to make the
customer let that brand of cigars Sc
verely alone. The late William S.
Roose, who for many years sold cigars
at the hotel stands owned by him in
this city and at his several stores, al
ways disliked to sell cigars by the box
to amy of his regular customers His
theory was that customers who had a
box OF their favorite cigar handy we're
apt to smoke too many and the in
evltaDle result was that they soon got
tired of any favorite, while they would
smoke the same cigar for years with
out any but pleasant consequences if
they bought them in small quantities.
The only remedy that I know is for a.
person, the instant he feels any I'M
Pheasant effect from cigar, to throw it
away, rinse the mouth out with cold
water and drink large glass of same.
A large quantity of cold water in the
stomach seems to neutralize the effects
OF the cigar better than anything that
l KNOW of. My experience is that CT
gars are barometer by which persons
are readily forewarned as to their
physical condition. The mere fact that
regular smoker does not want to
smoke shows that there is something
wrong with him and it is best to pay
attention to the indication and leave
cigars alone until he feels that he can
enjoy them

The ! b Canyon Contest Case.

The important land contest of Sperry
VS. HERES has been In progress since
Tuesday. This suit involves valu.
able town site at the mouth oi Big
Canyon. The settlement was made In
advance Of the government survey ut
the opening of the reservation and the
various legal rights of squatters will I've
adjudicated in the course Of this case
through the Tribunals of the inferior
department. The claimants haye been
living upon seperate legal subdivisions
of the disputed quarter section for three
years. Not only the title to the land is
involved but valuable Improvements
have been added.
Big Canyon will soon be a railroad
center. Back of the site lies the rich
est section of the reservation and this
will be an important shipping point.
The value Of the site was recognized
long before the reservation was
opened, and it Is said that the settle
ment was delibertily planned under
the advise of good lawyers with view
of making good defenses in contest suits
These plans wore laid in advance.
The nature of the suit makes It one oi
the most inlrecate that eyer was tried
before this office.
