THE FIRST WEDDING.

nE ElkSc1 WGODlNQs
Short courtships, in our opinion,
are preferable to long ones. In this
respect Adam acted like 8 sensible
man, and left q good example for
young folks to follow. He fell
asleep bachelor, and awoke q
bridegroom. He evidently popped
the question almost immediately
after meeting Miss Eve and she,
without Irritation or shyness, gave
him kiss and herself at once. That
FIRST kiss, from which all subsequent
kisses have descended, must have
had peculiar charm, and no doubt
many youth of poetical mind
and kissing propensities, may have
wished it had been his luck. But
the chance was Adams, and he i'm.
proved it.
We rather like.the idea of getting
married in a garden like Adam. We
once married couple in Faulkner's
lawn in tie silvery light of the
moon, and we thought it was nice,
charming, romantic. And, by the
way, we would not Object to do SO
again, provided loving couple
would allow US to initiate them into
the mysteries of the Order of Matri-
mony. 1t is in good taste to be
married in a garden or a lawn. At
any rate we like quiet weddings
no envious beaux are there-no
croaking old maids-no chattering
aunts-no grumbling grandmothers.
In the case OF Adams wedding
however, one thing seems very
queer. Adam and his bride were
rather young to be married, only
some few days old, according to the
sagest speculations of theologians-
in fact were babies in age, and yet
full grown. Besides, they were
without experience, without a house,
without pot or kettle, and even
without suitable wedding dresses
nothing but love and Eden.

err none too we'll, but all combined
against a common foe. Here was
one not even recognized in the So
cial register of the little town, who
had presumed to attract the atten-
ton of a distinguished explorer.
This coalition of social powers at
once began an active campaign.
There were drives to the Rock
House, and Lucinda was carefully
excluded from the list OF guests.
Prof. Dorrance, as the drives were
arranged especially for his benefit,
could not very we'll refuse the invi-
ta.ions.
There was a dance at DR.. Hyde's
and the name of Lucinda Bowers
appeared on no dancing card. The
professor was there, for Mrs. Ben.
son, who was a remote relative of
bis sby marriage, insisted that he
must attend.
Il rather think" said Margaret
Elton to her mother one morning,
shat the professor has forgotten all
about our young friend OF her grand
mothers skirt"
But the young women of Valley
City who composed what was known
as the "set' received invitations
that afternoon which caused them
to open their eyes in establishment.
Miss Lucinda Bowers was to give
an afternoon tea. II the brass ball
had suddenly fallen from the cupo-
la of the Court House, Valley City
would not have been more astonish-
ed.
II didn't SUPPOSE" said the
Widow Simpkins' daughter, "that
the girl had three silver teaspoons
in the house."
The young women of the "set"
took counsel together over the mat
ter, and decided to 20 to the tea.
Of course none of them had ever in
vited Lucinda to tea ;; but feminine
curiosity is mighty, even in Valley
City.
That Friday afternoon found if
teen modishly dressed young wo-
men in the little house in which
dvelt Mrs. Bowers and her FIVE chill
dren.
There was no silver teapot, and
the silver spoons were worn and yell
low in places; but the napkins on
the little tea table were of snowy
whiteness, the tea gave forth CRATE
full fragrance, and the angel food
was of marvellous fiakeiness.
81 am so glad,' said Lucinda, as
che toyed nervously with the edge
of hemstitched napkin, shat you
have all come today. / have known
you ever since we were children. /
have something to tell which / want
you TO know first of all. I am to
be married next month to Professor
Dorrance.'
The young women crowded about
her and congratulated her, loudness
of tone making up for lack of SINGER
ity.
81 suppose" said Lucinda to her
mother after the guests lad depart
ed, "that it wasn't Christianlike for
me to exult over them that way, but
somehow when things 60 SO far l
rebel, and can't help it. John

IT ALL WILL COME OUT RIGHT.


Whatever is cruel wrong,
Whatever Is unjust,
The honest years that speed along
Will trample in the dust.
In restless youth rallied at fate
With all my pnny might,
But now know If but wait
1t all will come out right.
Though vice may don the judges crown
And play the censor's part,
And fact be cowed by falsehood's crown,
And nature ruled by art.
Though labor tolls through binding tears
And idle wealth is might,
know the honest, earnest years
Win bring it all out right.
Though poor and lOveless creeds may pass
For pure religions gold,
Though ignorance may rule the man,
While truth meets glances cold,
know law supreme, sublime,
Controls us with Its might,
And in Gods own appointed time
1t all will come out right.

OF For Alaska.

Mr.. B. 8. Plillips, who has q legion OF
friends and admirers IN the Crystal river
section, is about to depart from Denver
on trip Of exploration to the wilds Of
far away Alaska. Mr.. Phillips will be
lsader Of a small, but thoroughly we'll
.sluiped, party Of hardy miners who will
explore q section OF Alaska that has not
~ yet been prospected by men who un-
derstsnd how to do this kind of work.
The Phillips party will leave Seattle for
st. Micheal, and from there proceed up
the mighty Yukon river for over a
thousand miles, to the mouth Of one Of its
largest tributaries, known as the Tanan
river: thence up to the very head
waters Of this stream.
The source of the Tanan river is on
the north side Of an easterly range OF
immence mountains that lie between the
a'eedy famous Copper River District
and the upper Tanan District, the re-
sources OF which are as yet unknown to
the world. The Copper river district
being more accessible to prospectors
than the Tanan district, just over an i'm
passable range has become famous as a
gold producing section.
