wedding.
And what do you think it would
cost, dear?" asked her father. DO you
suppose you could do it for 1882"
AS this last straw was laid on the
poor victims back, he reused himself
and managed to stammer that he must
consult his daughter before making the
final arrangements, and made for the
door, trusting to escape. But the cler-
gyman had reserved parting shot.
Taking up small paper-covered book
from the table, he said:
This is a small book on the history
of the church. l am sure your daugh-
ter will like to read all about 1t. as she
is thinking of being married there"
Thank you; I'll give it to her." said
the innocent man.
"That'll be Is cents" said his rev.
erence, and the unfortunate father
placed the money on the table and fed
for his life Needless to say the mar
riage did not take place at his church.

CT. LOUIS.-It is only within the
y memory of the oldest of river men
that the rivers forming the great Mis-
sissippi system have been SO low in
the summer as they have this year.
The old-timers say the low stages this
year can be compared only with those
of 1864, when the catfish had to climb
out into the fields to moisten their
parched threats with the dew.

The gang had gone to a roof. torn

Back in a dark corner of the tene-

a man, and. instead of going further,
she leaped for him. She got good grip
on his trousers and he could not beat
her off. Five minutes afterward the
policemen on their way back to the
street after a fruitless search heard
scuffle. They found Bessie still
holding on to the man. He was the
escaped prisoner and was taken to the
police station. The attack on Cum
Minis was the fourth made on a police
man by the gang in as many months.

New York. - Yowling, splitting,

cornered, one by one, the other night
in the old Washington market and
dumped into baskets. to be disposed

Cruelty to Animals.
Agents of the society, policemen,
watchmen, butchers, fishmongers,
green grocers and all the little world
of the market joined in midnight
hunt that, for activity and noise, out
did anything ever chronicled from
Africa.
For years the cats, at first encour-
aged to keep down the rats, had run
wild and increased in garrets and sub
cellars until they became an intolera-

ess of renovation.

whose post the car barn gang has its
headquarters, was beaten savagely by
members of that band and was in the
hospital for several weeks.
The first request Cummins made to
Capt. Corcoran when he reported
again for duty was to be assigned to
his old post He said he wanted to
show the toughs that he was not
afraid of them and that they could
not drive a policeman from his place
of duty. Capt Corcoran took the
same view and sent Cummins back.
From the moment he resumed his
work the gang annoyed Cummins, but
1t was not until the other night that
the roughs got chance to do him
up again He found about dozen
of them on the street insulting wom-

call from a roof The prisoner broke
from Cummins and ran into a house.

Some People Try to See How
Much Can Be Spent.
Amusing Story Of Clergyman In Lon
don Who Was Out for All the Cash
He Could Get-Some Of Access
series He Would Furnish.
from stereograrh copyright. by Underwood underwood

London.-Some of the fashionable
weddings that have taken place lately
would seem to indicate that the people
concerned were anxious to see how
much money could be spent on the af-
fair. In England the ceremony is much
more complicated. The most usual
form of marriage is by "banns." Notice
Is given to the clergyman Of the
church where the young couple desire
to get married, the announcement Is
given out three Sundays running be-
fore the wedding day, and for this the
bridegroom pays the clerk so cents. If
neither of the parties live in this par
ish, one or other of them must do so
for three weeks before the ceremony
takes place, but this condition is often
filed by the bridegroom taking room
and putting stick or bag in it for the
required time.
OF course, you have to pay the cler-
gyman something for performing the
ceremony for you, and the legal fee is
SIPS, with so cents to the clerk, and
further so cents for copy Of the GER
tificate of marriage. but each clergy
man asks what he chooses, and some
of them place their services rather
high.
Recently young couple who live In
the suburbs decided to get married at
one of the churches in the Strand, in
London, as this was a convenient CEN
ter for all their friends, and also near
Charing Cross station, from which they
were starting for Paris Immediately
after the ceremony. 1t was to be
quiet affair, no bridesmaids, no bou-
Quets, no carriages, no red carpet, etc.
SO one fine morning the brides's father
started OF to find the incumbent OF
one Of these London churches, an In
dividual with a double-barreled name
and, incidentally, a double-barreled To-
Quacity as we'll. After great effort
the father got him to talk about the
wedding, and finally inquired the fee.
The fee would be $25," said his
reverence. And. of course. you would
IKE some music? We supply that and
4 would be S." The father was about
g say something, when the padre
broke in again.
And you would like some red carpet

Nulre an awning" continued the clergy
man. I'VE supply the awning and the

Yes" gasped the father, casting
about in his mind for way of escape.
when the other went on:
And. of course, you would have
some flowers. My daughter always
does the flowers, and I'm sure she
would be delighted to do them for

could reply. the clergyman rang the
