The Wedding Ceremony.

Baron Sannomiya tells me that 1t has
not been decided what the wedding
ceremony will be nor whether 1t will be
after the style of the old Japan or new
form gotten up by the advisers of the
imperial household and the emperor to
suit the new conditions. If 1t is &C
cording to the old forms her royal high
ness and the prince will dress for 1t in
japanese costume, the princess wearing
about thirteen silk garments, one over
the other, and going through several
changes of clothes before the wedding
is accomplished. In ordinary japanese
weddings no ring is used and no prom
ises areSmade by the pair as to fidel-
ity, obedience, etc. The wedding con-
sists OF the drinking of a number or
cups OF japanese wine or saki together
in a certain way.
1t takes place at the house Of the
parents of the groom, and in this case
O., will be performed in the palace OF
the emperor. The rules of etiquette in
such events are very minute, and
everything must be done just so. The
bride gets The first drink and the groom
follows after. The cups in which the
wine is served are very small. and the
princess will drink three Of them be-
fore the prince will be served with the
same number. After this there is more
drinking in about the same way, the
bride always being served first. This
is in contrast to the custom after mar
I.age. where the husband Is always
served before the wife. At the begin
ming of the wedding ceremonies the
bride is dressed in white. but when the
ceremony is over she Tetires and
changes her costume for one which
is a present from her parenta-in-law.
At the same time the groom also
changes his attire for one which has
been given TO him by the parents Of
the bride.
The wedding OF the prince imperial,
il IL Is carried out after the old meth
DDS, will be about as above described,
but the banquet and receptions which
foAow will be in European style. The
prince imperial and her imperial high
ness, Princess Sada. will dress in for
eign costume and will act at these cele-
brations just as Is the custom at the
great courts of Europe.
Ii may be. however. that a modified
ceremony OF marriage. a sort Of cross
between our ceremony and the old Jap
anese. will be adopted. In this case the
services will be performed before the
Shinto shrine in the imperial chapel
and one Of the highest OF the Shinto
priests will ofliciate.
The Trousseau and Presents.
But how about the brides trousseau?
Well, no one knows just what Il viii
consist OF as yet. but the preparations
are going brayely on. The silk mills
OF Japan are az work producing their
finest stuffs for the princess, stuffs that
will stand alone and are seldom seen
outside Of the empire. The empress
herself has become interested In the
matter and she costumes are being
made by the imperial dressmakers in
the palace OF her majesty. The cutting
and fitting Is largely under the direc-
ton Of the noble ladies OF the court,
the sewing being done by the work

N0N-UNIoN MAN is SLAIN.


Gustav Smith Dead, August Hasterok
Unconscious
Chicago, March 26.-Two men who
are supposed to have beeen assaulted
by strikers Friday were taken to the
county hospital in a serious condition.
One Of them-Gustav Smith, 38 years
old, 116 West Madison street, with
basal fracture of the skull-died later.
August Hasterok, SO years old, II
Newton street, lies in serious condi-
ton with conclusion of the brain.
Mystery surrounds the manner in
which Smith received his injuries. He
was picked up at Madison and Jeffer-
son streets about 1890 o'clock Fri
day afternoon in an insensible condi-
ton. The police took extraordinary
means to suppress news of the acct
dent. Smith was not booked at the
county hospital, and a misleading re-
port was sent out about him.
Hasterok's manner OF receiving his
injury is also shrouded in mystery. He
was picked up at Noble and Cornell
streets in an unconscious condition. At
the county hospital 1t was said that
the man was suffering from conclusion

And you stand outside the Christian

A Personal Appeal.
Are your children safe? I know 1t Is
stupendous question to ask, but
must ask 1t. Are all your children
safe? A mother when the house wac
on fire got out the household goods
many articles of beautiful furniture,
but forgot to ask until too late. "Are
the children safe?" When the ele-
ments are melting with fervent heat
and God shall burn the world up and
the cry Of Fire, fire!" shall resound
amid the mountains and the valleys,
will your children be safe?

chord in the heart of any man who had
Christian parentage. but has not lived
as he ought? God brought you here
this morning to have your memory re-
vived. Did you have a Christian an
cestry? "Oh, yes" says one man. IF
there ever was a good woman, my
mother was good" How she watched
you when you were sick! Others
wearied. II she got weary. she never
theless was wakeful; and the medicine
was given at the right time, and when
the pillow was hot she turned 1t. And,
oh, then when you began to go as
tray, what grief 1t was to her heart!
All the scene comes back. You re-
member the chairs, you remember the
table, you remember the doorsill where
you played. you remember the tones Of
her voice. She seems calling you now,
not by the formal title with which we
address you, saying, Mr." this or
Mr." that. or Honorable" this or
Honorable" that. 1t Is Just the first
name. your first name, she calls you
by this morning. She bids you to a
better life. She says: Forget not all
the counsel | gave you. my wandering
boy. Turn into paths Of righteousness
am waiting for you at the gate"
Oh, yes. God brought you here this
morning to have that memory revived,
and shout upward the tidings. An
gels of God, send forward the news!

months when the bunch broke in two
places and became running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofula and
each ordered a blood medicine. A

1t is interesting to observe that few
of the noted people of the stage have
children or relatives on the boards
with their permission. Mrs. Kendall

because the work is too hard and the

on the stage, but the situation was diff

company. Sarah Bernhard put her

about 16 now. and is at school. She
has talent, 1t is said. but her mother
does not want her to adopt a stage
career. May Irwin is proud Of her two

for them. They are destined for the
