First Silver Wedding.

The first silver wedding dates back
to the time of Hughes Capet. The serv-
ants, says Home Chat, belonging to
him had grown gray in his service, a
man and a woman, and what could he
do as n reward? Calling the woman,
he said: Your service is great. greater
than the mans, whose service Is great
enough, for the woman always finds
work harder than a man. and therefore
I will give you a reward. At your
age know of none better than a dow
~ and husband. The dowry is here
this farm from this time forth be-
longs to you. If this man, who has
worked with you five and twenty
years, is willing to marry you, then the
husband is ready"
Your majesty" said the old peas
ant, "how is 1t possible that we should
marry, having already silver hairsT'
Then it shall be a silver wedding"
And the king gave the couple silver
enough to keep them in plenty.
This soon became known all over
France and raised such enthusiasm that
it became fashion after twenty-five
years of married life to celebrate sill
yer wedding.

Tho Treasury Vaults,

The first question the average WIS.,
itor to the United States treasury
building asks is. Couldn't burglars
tunnel under the vaults and rob the
government" Well, that is not likely.
An armed guard sits beside the vaults.
Every twenty minutes he Is required
to ring an alarm just to show that he
is awake. An armed patrol makes the
rounds hourly. Secret service men in
plain clothes, with concealed weapons,
keep watch and ward outside and in
side the building. As to tunneling, the
officials hold that If a man by any pos
sibility should manage to bore under
meath a vault the heavy metal would
crush him to Jelly, thus administer
ing lasting gold cure. Even If the
tunnel burglar should get away with
his life he could not get away with
much gold. Ten thousand dollars in
double eagles weighs thirty eight
pounds. Forty million dollars in gold
certificates Of the $40 900 denomination
weighs eleven and a half pounds.
Even burglars prefer the gold certifi-

Old limo Drunkenness.

In reviewing THE Early Married
Life of Maria Josepha, Lady Stanley
the London Spectator comments on the
light in which drunkenness was re-
garded at the beginning Of the nine
teenth century. There was christen-
ing of twins and rejoicing among the
neighbors, tenants and laborers. Gall
the guests" says Maria, were as
drunk as I ever had the pleasure OF
seeing any one" Among the laborers,
however, that extent of intoxication
was not reached which causes men to
be swine"
Lady Sheffield, who received this &C.
count of the festivities, replies: II
would have given a great deal to be
present. There is nothing I love SC
much as such sort Of festivities, where
one has the satisfaction of knowing
that one makes ones friends happy as
well as drunk" In London, she de-
clares, when you give a ball you at
front many people. please a few. make
many drunk and yourself miserable"

journalistic Revenues.

The curious boycott Of the press in
the Berlin parliament had precedent
in the mother Of parliaments. the Brit
ish house of commons. A writer in
Harper's Weekly recalls that the per-
son involved was no less a celebrity
than the late Daniel O'Connell. He
condemned the inaccuracy of the par
liamentary reports. but he forgot to
make allowance for acoustic difficulties
and the buzz of intervening converse
ton. He charged the reporters with
the malicious suppression Of his speech
es. and the gallery then refused to re-
port him at all. Dan stormed and
Numbered in vain. even moving that
the ringleaders be brought to the bar
Of the house. Finally he apologized.
and all was well. Lord Lyttleton in
1871 fell foul of the press in the same
way. and the late Lord Monteagle had
his name omitted from London news
paper reports for two years because he
said something the reporters did not
like.
