Thursday, April 9th, at $50 P. M, the
marriage of Miss Edna Ray and Mr.. VIM.
l.. Saul took place at "The Highlands" near
Kensington, this county, the home Of the
brides mother, Mrs. Alfred Ray. The cere.

large bouquet of the same flowers and en-
tered the parlor with her brother, Mr.. Alfred
Ray, Jr. She was attended by her sister,
Miss Eleanor G. Ray, and Miss Pearl Page,
who wore dotted swiss gowns and carried
bouquets of sweet peas. Mr.. Saul, with his
best man, Mr.. Oscar johnson, stood waiting
under an arch of white lilacs in the bay
window, which was deliberately adorned
with the same flowers, as was the entire
room. The bridal party entered the room
to the sweet strains of Memberships we'd
ding march, played by Miss Louise Dowell,
of Woodside.
After the ceremony the newly welded
couple received the hearty congratulations of
all present,then the wedding party proceeded

ments were served. Shortly after O'Clock

long tables in a room upstairs. Among
them was handsome silver piece, the gift
of twelve ladies OF the Kensington Presby-

Greet the Rising Sun.

No more quantity impressive custom
has descended to Greater New York
from the early days than the Easter
sunrise services held by the Moravians
in their old burying ground over on
Staten Island. Since the year 1853
there has never been an Easter morn in
which these devout worshipers have
failed to greet the dawn with praise
and thanksgiving. With the farm lands
and picturesquely wooded hills and fer
tile meadows of Staten Island absorbed
under the new charter there came into
the municipality the Moravian cemetery
at New Dorp. There, on the hillside,
since the old hip rooted frame building,
which still stands, was dedicated as
church and parsonage under British
rule, the followers of John Huss have
held service at daybreak on every
Easter day under the morning sky,
among the ever multiplying graves, to
emphasize their faith in the resurrec-
ton of the body and their sense of ex-
ultation in the triumph of life over
death.
The present church of white painted
wood, with its lofty square columns
and cupola containing the bell which
calls the worshipers to service, stands
within the burying ground, on one of
the loveliest spots in the new city of
New York. Beginning the service by
artificial light within the consecrated
walls, the congregation moves out into
the grayness of the air at the moment
of dawn.
The mists of the night still shroud
the lowlands between the cemetery and
the sea, above which the sun is just
appearing. As the red and yellow beams
beat shoreward over a gilded track the
winding sheet is swept from the land,
exposing the lush, marshy vegetation
of the lowlands CARRIED in the tender
tints Of spring, with brightness softened
by hazy bloom. Birds begin their
morning song among the fruit trees
planted by the early settlers tender
leaves bestir themselves in bright array
ON the branches, and the very blossoms
seem to join in the refrain of the resur-
rection, rejoicing in natures return to
active life after the dreary deafness of
winter. San Francisco Chronicle.

Trained Show Dogs.

ed dogs are one of the most profitable
attractions in the vaudeville line, said
an old time Snowman, here with one
of the current theatrical companies. 81
suppose there are at least 10 or 10
troupes of them scattered over the
country" he continued, land the good
ones easily average couple of hundred
a week and expenses. AS there are no
salaries to pay for the dogs and no hotel
bills for anybody except the proprietor
and one keeper the returns are rather
handsome. Nowadays they have the
business down to such fine point that
the sudden death of any of the animals
can be readily remedied by telegraph
ing to New York, where several men
make a speciality of keeping standard
trick dogs in stock.
"a dog troupe usually consists Of
five performers, one Of which is a star.
The star probably costs $3.50 and the
others about $50 apiece. Mongrels Of
no intrinsic worth are generally select
ed for training purposes, because they
learn as quickly as the thoroughbreds
and if anything happens to them the
loss is so much lighter. There is a
standard series of tricks which they are
taught to do so that one can easily re-
place another, and little ingenuity on
the part of the Snowman supplies the
variety to the programme. New Or

iather of Rudyard Kipling, is visiting his
son.
Mr.. Kipling is about 60 years old,

He wears spectacles, through which he
beams with most kindly expression.
John Lockwood Kipling was born in
Pickering, England, and was educated
at Woodhouse Grove and at the famous
South Kensington Art School. He at
tanned a reputation as a sculptor and
artist in black and white. In 1865 he
was appointed one of the directors of an
art school which it was proposed to
found at Bombay. Some years after the
Bombay school was established Mr.. Kip
ling moved to Lahore, where he founded
the Mayo Art School, endowed by the
government in memory Of Lord Mayo.
After this he was appointed curator of
the Lahore Museum, the finest and larg-
est institution Of its kind in India. 1t
was from Lahore that Mr.. Kipling d.
rected the management of the Colonial
and Indian exhibition in London in 1886.
He was also commissioned by the queen
10 select the decorations for the Indian
room at Westminster. Mr.. Kipling il
lustrated the Outward Bound" edition
Of his sons works. published by the
Scribners last year. The originals of
these Illustrations Mr.. Kipling modelled
in clay and then had the models photo
graphed. He also made some of the il.
iustrations of the Jungle Book and all
Of the illustrations for Mrs. Flora Annie
Steele's Tales of the Punjab.' Mr..
Kipling now lives in Wiltshire. He has
visited this country several times before,
his last visit being in 1895, when he
spent some time at his sons place, 1.-THE
Naulahka," at Brattleboro.

The Power. of a Cyclone.

Careful estimates of the force of a
cyclone and the energy required to keep
full fledged hurricane in active opera
ton reveal the presence Of power
that makes the mightiest efforts of
man appear as nothing in comparison.
A force fully equal to 473, 600, 900
horsepower was estimated as developed
in West Indian cyclone. This is about
10 times the power that is creatable by
all the means within the range of man s
capabilities during the same time.
Were steam, water, windmills and
the strength of all men and all animals
combined they could not at all approach
the tremendous force exerted by this
terrible storm.

the present acceptation of the term,
but it is doubtful, because the first pat
ent for chainmaking was obtained in
England in 694 by blacksmith named
Philip White. The patent was for IA
years, and in consideration of it White
had to pay e5 in lawful money yearly
at the Exchequer, Westminster, att
the Feast of the Blessed Virgin and
Saint Michel the Archangell by even
and eual process.
"His patent is described as follows:
"A way for the wearing of ships with

Of manly tones, took up the refrain,
proclaiming:
"Christ is risenp'
The wind which swept the brow of
the old bell ringer and which filed the
belfry tottering to its base repeated in
low, whispering sounds:
"Christ is risenl"
Then Mikael forgot his life of sorrow.
He forgot that he was alone in tb"
world, like an old tree shattered by the
storms, He heard his bells ringing,
weeping, and he believed he was sur
rounded by his wife and children. He
thought the voice of the bells was that
Of his loved ones, thus forming heav-
emily concert which sang of happiness
and joy which he had never known.
And with stiffened arms and bending
form he drew, drew the cords, the old
bell ringer. Tears blinded him and his
heart throbbed wildly. The world be-
low listened in wonder to this strange
fight of sound, saying, "Never before
no, never, had old Mikael thus rung
the bells!" Suddenly the great bell
swung with an uncertain jer's, and then
stilled. The smaller ones threw out con-
fused trills, then stopped, as if listening
to the dying plant Of the Others trem-
bling in the air.
"Mikael Ho, Mikael" again called
voice from below.
But Mikael was sleeping the sleep of
death. The old bell ringer will ring the
bells no more. Translated From the
Russian by M. M. Hallowell.

DIR. TaIma ge's Reclamation.

William E. Curtis, the Washington
correspondent of the Chicago Record
says: The unnatural relations between
the Rev. DR.. Talmage and the First Pres
byterian Church of this city will be dis
solved by the resignation that was haud-
ed in at prayer meeting a short time ago.
When Dr. Talmage came here three years
ago the church was dying of exhaustion,
and he hoped to restore its numbers and
influence, as well as find platform from
which he could deliver the sermons that
he sells to Monday newspapers through
out the world. He agreed to preach
once a week, provided the church would
employ an assistant to do pastoral
work, and to accept as his compensa-
ton the difference between the revenues
before and after his arrival. The ar
rangement has been failure. The con-
gregations are larger than they used to
be, but are composed mostly of strangers,
who attend out OF curiosity to hear the
great preacher. The membership of the
church has scarcely grown at all and
there is great deal of dissatisfaction
among the pewholders as we'll as on the
part OF DR.. Talmage.

Be Glad?

he clad when the flowers have faded?
ne glad when the trees are bare?
when the fog lies thick on the fields and
And the frost is in the air?
when all around Is desert,
And the clouds obscure the light,
when there are no songs for the darkest day,
No stars for the longest night!
No clad when the world is lonely
And the heart has been bereft p?
when OF all the loves of the young spring
time
Scarcely a friend is left ?
Re glad in the desolate valley
After the sunny hills?
when the 10y of the morning Is far behind
And the gloom it's task fulfils
All. YES for the truest gladness
Is not in ease or mirth;
II has its home in the heart of God,
Not In the loves of earth.
Gods love is the same forever,
IF the skies are bright or dim,
And the Joy of the morning lasts all day
When the heart is glad in Him.

In an interesting article on the sub
ject of chains an English writer points
to the fact that notwithstanding the
frequent mention Of chain in the Bible
the article is comparatively new. The
same author says:
"Some authorities give the Britons
credit for originating the cable chain
because julius Caesar is recorded as
having been unable to cut the cables Of
the Gauls vessels, 'as they were made
of iron. This may have been chain in
