He Was Mad,

Judge Richard w. Clifford of Chica-
go, is proverbial for his original hui
morous stories, and one Of his latest is
told Of a corpulent German who came
rushing into the circuit court one
morning before court was called and
said;

kill tog."
well my man, you don't come to
this court to get warrants in cases of
that kind. If you want the dog killed
you should go to police court, said
the Judge
The German started to leave when
the Judge inquired in an interested
manner:
did the dog bite you?"
yeas, he bit me-"
Well! was the dog mad? ?"

A FILIPINO WEDDING.
Chief Deicacy Furnished Guests is
Canned Corned Beef.

A wedding in the Philippines is like
a scene from a comic opera l have
in mind one that took place at Caga-
yam, Island of Mindanao, in pictur-
esque house curtained with jasmine
and inhabited by three charming sis
ters. The bride-the eldest-was a
soft-eyed, plump beauty, with skin
like brown velvet. Her white muslin
gown would have passed muster in
New York, and she wore a veil of
costly and delicate pima gauze which
would have turned an American bride
elect green with envy. Several neck
laces were hung around her neck,
while bangles loaded her wrists, and
her fingers were stiff with gold and
plorable state, being knee-deep in mud
in places, and many of the guests
wore top boots. They began arriv-
ing early in the morning, on horse
back, on bicycles and driving the
famous trotting bulls of the country,
or the rough-coated island ponies
hitched to carts or ancient victorias
The majority came on foot though,
and everybody was welcome Long
tables made of planks on empty bar
rels and guiltless of linen were spread
under the trees in the front yard, as
it was too hot to eat indoors, also the
house was not nearly large enough to
accommodate the guests. Directly
over the brides table magnificent
fire tree (orbol de fuego) dropped it's
flaming blossoms. Every kind of ma
tive dish was there, and many import
ed from the United States, by way of
Manila but the chief delicacy was
considered to be canned corn beef,
which occupied the place of honor
usually accorded to the wedding cake
IN other countries. and was flanked by
onion omelet and ham and eggs. Other
dishes were chicken fried in cocoanut
oil, dried fish made in kind of stew
with rice, potatoes and red pepper
enough to raise it to the rank Of a
curry. Caribou steaks, jam, honey,
various kinds of sweet cake, cocoa
nuts in the shell, and wine-much
wine-completed the menu. While the
feast was in progress the hens
scratched industriously under the
tables, and bold rooster flew up
among the plates, pecked at a few
stray crumbs. and crowed until driven
off by Antoine, the brides brother.
The marriage was performed by a
very fat priest, who wore a suit of
bright red calico under his flowing
robes, the wind blowing through open
doors and windows, lifting his vest
ments and revealing the incongruous
attire beneath. The ceremony was
followed by the supper, and that in
turn by dancing, the music being fur
nished by harp and piano. Minna
