Old English Laws About Buttons.

Buttons have engaged the attention
of legislators even more frequently
han hats. Five acts have been pass
ed to protect the button industry of
England, and some of these are still
unrepcaled. An act of George /. in
dicts a penalty of 40 shillings on any
person using or selling buttons made
or cloth, serge, drugget, frieze or cam
let"
This law, says the London Daily
Mail, was a source of intense annoy
ance to foreign visitors, and the au-
thor of lie Parisien a Londres,"
guide written in 1889, is careful to
explain its provisions at considerable
length. He adds, however, that for
eigners who are able to prove that
their clothes were made in their own
country escape the penalty when first
summoned on the understanding that
they change their buttons within
twenty-four hours"

Peter, the Pet of the English Cold
stream Guards.
Possibly the most remarkable crea-
ture ever attached to a regiment was
Peter, the ever famous goose of the
Coldstream guards. This curious pet
was presented TO the Coldstreamers
when they were in Canada by the late
Hon. Adolphus Graves, and soon it
acquired fame which eclipsed that
OF all rivals in the way of pets in the
army.
When the guard was mounted of
morning Peter always marched off
with them. 1t is recorded that one
night the goose saved a sentry's life
by flying in the face of a rebel who
was just going to fire at the soldier.
Peters timely aid disconnected the
rebel, who fired at random. The SEN
try Immediately responded by shoot
ing the rebel dead.
When the guards came home and
were quartered in LonACn one of the
sights when the regiment marched
out was to see Peter strutting at the
head Of the battalion till they passed
the barrack gate, when the goose re-
turned. Unhappily Peters fate was
unheroic. His end was i'll in accord
with his martial career, for he was
run over and killed by cab, and that
not even taxicab. 1t was a poor
kind of an end for bird with such
a record.-London Telegraph.

riage of His Son.
Weather typical of the month of
brides and roses attended the wedding
of Miss Eleanor Butler Alexander and
Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., whose nup-
tials at the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian
Church in New York furnish one of
the most notable society events of the
season.
The capacity of the spacious edifice
where the wedding took place was tax
ed to accommodate the guests. Then
attendance of the groom's distinguish
ed father so stimulated popular inter-
est in the function that there were
record throngs in the vicinity of the
church edifice long before the hour set
for the ceremony.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. DR.. Henry NJ. Sanders, a great
uncle of the bride, assisted by Rev.
Gordon Russell of Crawford, N j. A
musical program was given while the
guests were assembling The bride
was given away in marriage by her
mother, Mrs. Henry Addison Alexan-
der.
The ceremony was followed by a re-
ception at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
G. B. Alexander, the brides uncle and
aunt. The young couple go on their
honeymoon to California, and will
spend some time there. The bridal
gifts were many and valuable.
The engagement of Theodore Roose-
welt, Jr., and Miss Alexander was an
nounced last February. The groom is
p years of age and his bride q.
