Wedding of 1O.1O1 Couples.

Costly and magnificent as are the
modern marriages OF the wealthy and
noble, for greatness they fall far short
of one which occurred over 1000 years
agc.
At this gigantic ceremony 20,202
people were united.
When Alexander the Great conquer
ed King Darius, he decided to espouse
the defeated monarch's daughter. At
the same time he decreed that 100 OF
his chief officers should wed 100 wo-
men from noble Persian families, and
10000 of his Greek soldiers must take
as many Asiatic women as their wives.
The ceremony, which took place in
a huge pavilion, was very simple.
Alexander gave his hand to the prin-
cess and kissed her, and all the other
bridegrooms did the same to their Sc
iected mates.
After the actual wedding followed
a five days festival which has never
since been excelled in grandeur and
magnificence.

"THE old WORLD and ITS WAYS" !"
BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.

This remarkable book of SIS pages
voluminously Illustrated and elegantly
bound, has been issued by "The
Thompson Publishing Company of
st. Louis, Mo-, and is sold by sub
ScriptiOn.
We would advise our young friends
who are out of employment to seek
the agency for this book. 1t is GER
tainly one of the most readable, enter
tanning and edifying volumes we have
read in a long time. 1t was almost
like retracing our first trip around the
world, with less than one-thousandth
of the money and one-hundredth OF
the time required for our first trip" !"
The great problems of civilization,
religion, philosophy and government
in Japan, China, the Philippines, In
dia, as we'll as Europe, are presented
in clear light by a great brain.
Mr. Bryan was accompanied on this
trip by his wife and two younger chill
dren, William j., Jr., and Grace, aged
16 and IA, respectively. They start
ed September 21, 1905, and reached
home SEPTEMBER 5, 1906, sixteen days
less than one year. While most of
this trip was in the North Temperate
Zone, they were below the equator
a few days in Java, and for a while
above the arctic in Norway.

where there are boys and girls with
brains and promise.-Christian Ad-

A REVERIE

Written for the Democratic Advocate.
Memory gently sweeps the tuned harp and bids
sing today,
stray,
For home is where the heart is" and today my
hearts with you.
And long for you. Westminster. and your skies
of azue hue
Memory's Ginning bells calling, and l hasten
through the gloam,
On the winged flight of heart-love. all thy hal
lowed ways to roam,
Fragrant is the breath of evening, fragrant with
the souls of flowers
And perfume fills the valleys damp with Aprils
sparkling showers.
Yonder range the towering mountains, guarding
you with rugged might,
Shifting back the raging Boreas; keeping vigil
day and night.
Lo, see the starry sentinels as they pace the
camp of blue,
Looking down with loving watch care, in their
vigils ever true.
Down the Main street 1 am strolling, with nod
for each and all,
And the lights are brightly cleaning, and the
children's voices call
Through the balmy air the echoes meet and blend
And my heart with Joy is swelling, as each smil-
ing face greet.
City dwelling in the valley, city dwelling on the
hills
Oft hear the mellow laughter of your spark
Hear the roar of rushing trains and ringing of the
churches bells.
See the courthouse, with its velvet lawns, or
wander through your dells
Memory's harp is softly sounding. as the golden
strings stirred,
By echoes from the happy years, when love songs
sweet were heard
And l see wondrous vision of sweetheart gone
foreer
See the brown eyes laugh and sparkle; smell the
perfume of her hair.
Farewell, queen of Maryland cities, farewell city
that love,
May your homes e'er bloom with gladness may
your skies bend bright above,
Fades the joyful light and gladness, as turn and
sadly go
Back to scenes of toll and sorrow. storms of life
and winter blow.

GRAFT IN BALTIMORE.

Tt is c matter of sincere regret, By
all right-thinking people, that the
splendid record which for many years
Baltimore has enjoyed for the probity
and faithfulness of it's public officials
has been broken, and the Mayor, upon
testimony which he deemed sufficient,
has dismissed from office, two of the
Commissioners for Opening Streets,
J. Arthur Wickham and James H.
Marine.
The public was shocked few weeks
ago, by the rumor that there had
been crooked work in connection with
this department of the city govern
ment, and that the Street Commits
sioners whose names appear above,
were the guilty parties.
These men had always been regard
ed as reputable citizens, Wickham be-
ing Democrat and Marine a Repub-
lican. The evidence of their miscon-
conduct in office grew stronger and
stronger, and soon definite charges
against them were made to the Mayor,
and they were arraigned before him for
trial
The accused appeared with their
counsel and the trial lasted several
days. At it's conclusion the Mayor is
sued an order dismissing them both
from the public service. Whereupon
warrants were served upon them from
the States Attorneys office, and they
are now each held under a bail oil
$4,000 for the grand jury.
Their offense consisted in receiving
money from the Maryland Pavement
Company for the work of city con,
tracts by that company. Mr.. Robert
son, the General Manager of the com
pany, paid the money through a thirG
party, Harry Wells Rusk
The whole affair is lamentable ex-
hibition of human weakness and hui
man wickedness, and the Mayor anG
City legal department are to be con.
graduated upon the prompt and de.
cisiye manner in which they dealt
with this case.
If the criminal law can reach these
men it ought to take hold of them il
way that will let public officials
know that they cannot go crooked
and remain unpunished.
1t is false sympathy and maudlir
sentimentality that deals leniently
with such affairs. A term in the peni
tentiary, with the stripes on, will dc
more to cure official corruption thar
any other prescription that can be
administered, and a full dose of il
ought to be given in every we'll as.
certained case.
