Odd Bridal Customs

There used to be a custom of sTewing
flowers before the bridal couples as
they went to the church and from the
church to the house. and here is a
quaint verse that refers to it:
Suppose the way with fragrant herbs
were strewing.
All things were ready, we to the church
were going,
And now suppose the priest had Joined
our hands.
The Persians introduce a tree at their
marriage feasts laden with fruit, and
it is the place of the guests to try to
pluck this without the bridegroom OBJ
serving. If successful. they must pre-
sent the bridal couple with gilt q
hundred times the value OF the object
removed. In Tuscany brides wear jas
mine wreaths. and there is a legend
that a once reigning grand duke, who
at great expense procured this flower
for his own particular garden, gave or
ders to his gardener not to part with
any flowers or clippings; but the gar
dener. who was in love, took a sprig
to his sweetheart as a gift. She, being
shrewd, planted it and raised from 1t
several small plants, which she sold to
the dukes envious neighbcrs at great
price In a shont time she had saved
sufficient money to enable her lover
and herself to marry and start house
keeping, and so the Tuscans have a
saving that "the girl worthy Of wear
ing the jasmine wreath is rich enough
to make her husband happy"

Talk of Dam

In speaking Of the proposed dam TO
control a body OF water on which 20
skate, Engineer Lessen said the Park
Commission had already made over
lures in this respect. but as half of the
water in the creek is owned by Preston
Lea, he had to consent before any
thing toward stopping the flow could
be done. When seen regarding the
matter Mr.. Lea said he would have
his lawyer draw up the agreement, but
no notice of its having been done has
been received by the board IL was
proposed to make a dam at ''Old Bar
ley Mill, so that the water In the
creek could be controlled. When it Is
cold enough TO freeze the sluice gates
az the sides of the dam could be low
cred and the water would then rise,
covering the rocks and affording q
much larger skating surface. Under
this plan the Ice wiz last much longer
as there would be no tide AS soon as
the agreement Is drawn the work can
begin, but it is not likely TO be done
this winter as the dam would have tc
have a concrete covering and the sea-
son is too far advanced to begin work
/ or this kind.
MIR. Lesson further said, the commits
sion was always ready to do anything
in their power for the amusement o
Wilmingtonians as far as the parl
space would allow. When asked why
golf course was not laid out in The
park, he said that most Of the golfers
OF the city belonged to clubs which
had private links, and that there were
mot enough outside of the clubs TO JUS
tify the laying out of a course. Severn
lawn tennis courts were laid out few
seasons ago, but after a short while
they We're abandoned. The football
and baseball grounds are used more
than any other for sports, and are O
great convenience TO the small boys
who flock there every afternoon aftel
the close of school On Saturdays
many exciting contests are held on
these grounds.

AT DWIGHT PLACE CHURCH.
Christmas Praise Service Held Yester-

Christmas Praise Service Held Yester-
day-Children's Service
The Christmas praise service Of the
Dwight Place church was enjoyed last
night by an audience which filed the
large auditorium to its capacity. The
attendance was very surprising consid-
ering the wretched weather but all that
were present were well repaid for their
efforts because the programme was
perhaps the best ever given in the
church. The regular quartette Of ne
church was assisted by a chorus ~
thirty-fye voices and Fichtl's Orches
ira. The programme was rendered
precisely as published in this paper on
Saturday Each number was splendid
ly given both by the quartette, the
chorus and the organ and orchestra.
There was also a string quartette COM
posed of Frank Fitch. Langzettel,
Rawson and DOolittle. One of the es-
pecially good numbers was the an
them, 80 Babe of Light and Glory" by
I Louis Dressler. The orchestration for
this number was kindly furnished
gratis for the occasion by Mr. Dressler
himself. A soprano solo by Mrs. sey-
mour Spier, Rejoice Greatly" from
the Messiah, was very fine.
The pastor of the church, Rev. DR..
W. W. Leete, gave a short talk on the
relation of Christmas to the world.
Seymor Spier had charge of the music.
At the morning service the pro-
gramme was especially for the children
of the church and Sunday school and
those present occupied all of the seats
on the main floor. Their parents and
friends were compelled to go into the
galleries. The exercises consisted of
Christmas carols and recitations by the
members of the school. The pastor also
made a few remarks while the supper
intendent of the school. Wells Camp
bell, made very interesting and en-
tertaining talk.

yesterday received the following letter

OUTDOORS WITH RUsK1M,

.Ruskin was a good walker, but no
athlete. He and Mr.. Allen were out
one day upon the mountainside They
passed group of men engaged in
rough work with pickaxes. How
WISH said Ruskin, Il could do what
those men are doing! I was never al
lowed to do any work which would
have strengthened my back I wasn't
allowed to ride, for fear of being
thrown off; nor to boat, for fear of be-
ing drowned; nor to box. because it
was vulgar; 1 was allowed TO fence, be-
cause it was genteel" But Mr.. Allen
cannot remember ever seeing Ruskin
with the foils Sometimes when he was
living with his parents at Denmark
Hill he would enjoy a surreptitious row
on the river. st used to be told,'' says
Mr.. Allen, mot to let his parents know
where he was gone" Ruskin at this
time was in the forties.
What a companion must Ruskin have
been on mountain walks around
Bonneville and Chamonix! Mr.. Allen
looks back, as one can we'll understand,
to those days among the Alps as the
most stimulating and interesting of his
life "Ruskins great work." he says,
twas to teach people to see. He had
an eye for everything-clouds and
stones, hills and flowers, all interested
him in the same intense way. And
what he saw and felt he communicated
in inimitable and inevitable eloquence
to others. I seem to hear him now
breaking forth into a rhapsody of de-
light as we came unexpectedly on a
walk UP the Brezon, upon sloping
bank of the star gentian. He was full,
too, of sympathy with the life of the
people. I can see now kneeling down,
as he knelt on Easter Sunday, 1863, and
