WANTED AN EXCEPTION.
It Wasn't a Quiet Home Wedding
They Had at That House.

rs this where they edit?' inquired a
gaunt young man with a lay-down
paper collar and a white necktie, ac-
cording to the Detroit Free Press.
Yes" was the answer of the man
at the desk.
rs this the place where things about
dances and sociables and weddings get
edited into the paper?"
IF you have any news of that kind
we can attend to it for YOU
We'll, lemme tell you something. I
was married night before last"
'Ah"
Yes, sir. And we didn't have any,
body sittin' off in a corner in bunch
of palms playin' mandolins. No, sir.
We had a brass band.
What did you say the name"
And when the ceremony was benz
performed at the brides house the
pie for two miles around complained of
bein' KEEP awake"
81 didn't quite catch"
And just to make things lively,
while the lancers was bein' danced, the
brides youngest brother went into the
cellar and fired off a whole pack Of
giant shooting crackers"
But there is no use of your giving
us all these details unless you give the
names. l have no doubt that the pa
per will publish something about it
if you want it to. But we must have
names"
'I'n give you the names as soon as
[ get around to that part. But 1 want
to make sure first that it's going to be
done right. We've got a reputation in
our section as a h-respectin' fam
lily. and I don't want any misrepresen-
tation This weddings got to be wrote
up different from most that I see. Just
to make sure there won't be any mis-
take I wish you'd take your paper an
pencil an make a few notes"
Very we'll"
There was the brass band; have you
got that DOWN."
Yes"
And the schoolhouse bell and the
cannon crackers?"
Yes
well, there was all them in addition
to the usual shivveree afterward with
tin horns and cow bells, and I most
particular desire to break in on custom
and not have anythin' said about it's
bein' a quiet weddin'."

THREE STORIES oF RELICS.
One of Washington's Palms Graces
the White House.

Recent changes in the White House
conservatory have brought TO light a
spreading palm of great age and historic
interest 1t was once the property OF
Washington, and is considerably older
that the Government, having come orig
inally from the island of Cuba, where 1t
had attained a respectable antiquity be-
fore its importation into this country.
A Baltimore merchant and ship-owner
whose line of vessels piled between that
city and Havana purchased this sage
palm in Cuba, and brought it back with
him to his Maryland home for presen-
tation to the Father of his Country.
The gift was accepted by the Gen
eral, and for many years this plant
graced the mansion house and gardens
at Mount Vernon With that graceful
gallantry so characteristic of Washing
ton, he one day presented the palm to
fair resident of Baltimore, the woman
having admired its picturesque foliage
wien visiting the household al Mount
Vernon.
The plant remained the heirloom in the
family of the Baltimore belle until about
fifty years ago. In a general sale OF
the personal property of the last sur
viyor of this Maryland family the sago
palm was offered to the public, and was
purchased by the hOrticulturist who
was at that time head gardener of the
White House. 1t remained there in the
greenhouse ever after, and has now only
been transferred temporarily to the Pen
sion Building in washington City, where
ii is one of a group of plants in the CEN
ter of the great court about the foun-
tain This accumulation of tropical and
senli-tropical vegetation gives an air of
Indian luxuriance to the rotunda of the
Pension Building.
Henry Pfistor, the present head gar
dener of the Executive Mansion, has
shown a commendable industry in as
certaining the exact history Of this VEN
cradle relic, and he Verifies the facts
above mentioned. Beyond these details
comparatively little is known about this
old tree, whose age is plainly indicated
by its general appearance, two hundred
or more being a conservative estimate
of the years of its existence.
II is about ten feet in hight, and has
rather thin crown, several of it's beau
tiful leaves having been broken off in
the work Of removal.
1t forms unique and interesting relic
of Washington and of all the Presidents
during the last half century. The plant
is distinguished from all others in this
group by q card bearing q brief in
cription.-PhiIadelph Times.

A Sneezing Scene.

certain actress, having been olsen
gagged for some time, had packed her
wardrobe in pepper to preserve it from
moths She was recently called on in
a hurry to take the part of the queen
in Hamlet" Being rather late for her
first scene, she omitted to shake out her
royal robes, and her dignified entrance
had an astonishing effect The King,
after brave resistance, gave vent to
a mighty sneeze that we'll nigh made the
stage vibrate. All the royal courtiers
and maids of honor followed suit sympa-
thetically.
Hamlet came on with most sublime
tragedy air, but after a convulsive
movement of his princely features he
buried them in his sombre robe while
sneeze after sneeZe was all that was
heard. Amid the hubbub on the stage
and the shrieks of delight from the audi
ence, the stage manager, between
sneezes rang down the curtain.-New
