Wedding Horses.

-
An old fashioned man who wanted
to hire a team for the afternoon saw
a nice pair Of bays which he thought
he would like to drive.
Cant let you have Them" said
the liveryman. 'They are wedding
horses"
whats that?" asked the innocent
pleasure seeker.
"Horses that won't shy at old phoes
and showers Of rice. Some horses
seem prejudiced against matrimony.
Anyhow they lose their temper If they
happen to be hit by any of the good
luck emblems that are fired after q
bridal couple and run away If they get
half a chance Every livery stable,
however, keeps two or more horses
that take a more cheerful view of the
welded state. They may be literally
pelted with old shoes without resent.

They are slated to head a wedding
procession tonight and are resting up
for the job."-New York Sun.

If, you are planning to move prevent
confusion in placing furniture in the
new house in the following manner:
In leisure moments prepare a large
card for each room to be tackled to the
outside of the door frame on moving

card for each bedroom. Letter the
other cards with the names of the
other rooms. Then prepare a number
of smaller tags, attaching a string to
each, OF use baggage tags. Mark
enough to put on all furniture, trunks
or boxes with the name Of the room
into which each is to be put. Show
your movers the arrangement and

sale slaughtering OF Austrian troops

corps of 10000 men, divided into
parties of 90 each, and scattered over
the entire province.
The campaign started about the
first of the year, and now is assum-

and military authorities in the field
are sparing no effort to prevent the
news from becoming known. Men
actually in the field, however, send
reports that fights are taking place
daily, with heavy casualties.
Individually, of course. the en-
gagements are small, which makes
it easier for the Austrian govern
men TO suppress the news, but they
are now ranging over an area of
$500 square miles, and the total
showing Is formidable.
The rebels band consists largely
OF native Herzegoviners, with a
heavy sprinkling of Servians. Mon-

few Russians and Turks.

Perfectly Correct,

A young minister in the course of an eloquent sermon on the pomps and vanities of the world staggered his congregation by eXclaiming:
 Here am 1 standing. preaching to you with only half a shirt on my back, while you sit there covered with gew- gaws and other baubles."
 The next day a parcel containing sev- eral brand new shirts was left at his house by one of his hearers, a kind bearted old lady. Meeting the donor a few days afterward, he thanked her exceedingly, but expressed much sur prise at receiving such an unexpected gift.
 "Oh," said the lady, you mentioned in your sermon on Sunday that you had only half shirt on your back"

 Business Now Is Salt.
 Of Cadiz, De Amicis said, Ut is best described by writing the word white with a white pencil on blue paper"
 Under the monday sun, seen from the lofty Torre de Vigia, the mediae- val watchtower in the center of the city, it's buildings are dazzling and al- most encircled by the blue sea. A long, narrow isthmus like the stem of a pipe leads from San Fernando, on the mainland. Cadiz rests on the bowl of the pipe-yes, a pure white meer- schaum without coloring, though 3 900 years old.
 Americans may justly regard this now decadent place with compassion, because it grew to greatness by Its commerce with the new worthwhile Spain ruled the Americas and then fell away into decay on the loss of the western possessions.
 It was great before Rome was found ed. And as late as ITO it was wealth fer than London. Commerce has ever been its life Today its chief busi- ness is the production of salt for eX- port This humble staple, evaporated in countless shallow lagoons in wide spreading marshes, still keeps Cadiz in touch with the new world, as most of the salt is shipped to South Amer ica.
 The natives pronounce Cadiz with "z'' silent and "a" very broad-"Ca-di." That has always been it's name, with slight variations. Its Phoenician and Tyrian founders called it Gadir, a cas- tie of fastness. The Romans called it Gades. The Arabs had it Kadis.-De- troit NeWs-Tribune

HER GREETING.

In Spite of the Old Lady's Care She
 Managed to BIunder.
 The daughters of certain charming old lady in Washington are frequently much upset by the odd social blunders of their parent, whose failings in this respect are. however, more than offset by her kindliness of manner.
 Among the callers to the house of this family was a Mrs. Farrell, who, after some years of widowhood, again married, this time becoming the wife of MT. Meggs.
 eff you love us, mother" said one of the girls when the newly married lady's card had been brought in one afternoon shortly after the completion of the honeymoon, don't make the mistake of calling her Mrs. Farrell"
 The mother solemnly promised to commit no faux pas and as she went downstairs was heard to repeat to herself, "Meggs- eggs-not Farrell"
 At the conclusion of the call the old lady was met at the head of the stairs by the daughter, who at once observ- ed an ominous expression of despond- ency on the old lady's face.
 "Oh, mother" she exclaimed, surely you didn't''-

When the party was complete they proceeded through the deserted streets of the town firing guns and setting off punches of snap crackers to arouse the sleepers. Several of the boys car ried horns, which they blew to their hearts content. A number of citizens who did not relish having their morn ing maps thus rudely disturbed stuck their heads out of their windows and said uncOmplimentary things to them, but they only laughed and fired off more crackers. Their teeth chattered with excitement or cold-it is not cer- tain which-but they did not mind it and kept up the merriment. Down on the main thoroughfare of the town the restaurants had already opened for business. From hall above the stores the music of band played for the dancers who had remained up all night to usher ill the day.. With the first peep of day the bells in every steeple began to peal out a sunrise salute, while from the hilltop back of the canal a cannon roared out.
 By this time the city was awake, and the streets were soon filled with people. Excursion trains from distant points arrived every few minutes and added their human freight to the bus ting crowds. Farmers from the sur rounding country with their families loaded on OK carts and farm wagons drove into the public square and be- came a part of the multitude. At o'clock came the parade of 'fantas- tics''
 At 10 o'clock the great civic and mill itary parade marched through the streets to the music of innumerable bands. There were fire companies in red shirts and black helmet hats draw ing the hand engines, or machines" as they were called. There were com panies of Masons and Odd Fellows in their regalias, platoons of policemen iii uniform, squads of cavalry with sa- bers clanking at their sides, regiments of soldiers with the guns they had car r1ed in the field, wagons loaded with girls in white representing all the states of the Union, floats upon which were represented scenes in the pioneer days of the republic and carriages con- taining the city officials and distin- guished guests. Thousands of people crowded the sidewalks and buildings on either side of the route of parade and added their shouts to the noise of exploding gunpowder. When the pro- cession reached the park literary exer- cises consisting of the reading of the Declaration of Independence, an ora tion by the local congressman, an orig inal poem by budding genius and the singing of America" were held.
 The afternoon was devoted to com petitive trials between the fire compa- nies, to boat races on the river, to chasing a greased pig and climbing a
