^timorous gepadmcnt. A BRIDE'S CONFUSION. In New York recently, something unexpected happened in East Twenty-eighth street, around the corner from Madison avenue. There was a quiet parlor wedding at the house of a physician?a well known doctor, and about twenty friends were present to witness the ceremony. The bride was the physician's 18*year-old daughter, and the groom was the son of a Brooklyn brewer. There was to be a honeymoon trip after the marriage, and the mother of the bride, with true maternal foresight, had put a French traveling clock in her daughter's pocket. It was a little bit of a clock. Somehow it got wound up wrong. As the couple stood up with the minister under the floral bell a hush fell on the small assemblage, and the hush deepended as they knelt on a velvet cushion while the preacher prayed. "Oh, Lord," said the preacher, "let Thy blessing rest upon this"?"Br-r-r-, plink, plink," burst out the measly little alarm clock in a tone of awful distinctness. The venerable preacher opened one eye inquiringly, but quickly closed it again as he saw the groom's fat father scowling at him over his spectacles from the corner of the room. "Oh, Lord," said the preacher, beginning again, "let Thy?" "B-r-r-r, plink, plink, plink," came out from the depths of the bride's pocket. "Oh, Lord," said the preacher in a voice of desperate calmness, opening both eyes and closing them again like a flash, "let Thy bless?" "Br-r-r-r, plink, plink, plink, plink, plink, plink." The minister stopped. The bride, whose face was very red, and who had been trying in vain with her left hand to choke off the clock or shake it into submission, snatched it from her pocket and passed it to the groom, who handed it to his best man, who handed it to the brewer's wife, who glared at it and handed it to her husband, who went out in the hall, actually shaking his fist at it as he went. The minister began his prayer once more, and as he said "Oh, Lord," for the fourth time, there was a loud bang out in the back yard which indicated that the alarm clock had struck the fence with terrific force. It Worked Well.?Husband (first night after returning from wedding tour)?I am going down to the club tonight, love, and as I haven't seen the boys for a long time I may be late; so you needn't wait up for me. Wife (who had been warned by her mother that this crisis in the matrimonial history was sure to arrive sooner or later)?As you have never left me alone before, dear, since our marriage, I am afraid I would feel very lonely in your absence, so I think I will go to the theater. If you are home before me, you need not wait up, for I can let myself in with the latch key. "But you cannot go to the theatre unattended, my love." "I will not go unattended. Cousin Jack is home from his yachting cruise. I will call on him and ask him to be my escort. If he isn't in, I will find somebody else. You needn't worry about me, dear." "Your Cousin Jack is at home, then ?" asked her husband, who used to be dreadfully jealous of this cousin. "Yes. And you needn't fear that I shall be dull in his company. Jack is very entertaining, you know." After pondering a while the husband remarked : "On second thoughts I don't think I'll go to the club, love." "On second thoughts," returned the wife, j?mnuin ?T dnn'f. tfiinlr T'll art to the thea UCUlUi(/4J | JL. uvu V VMkMM ? .. - ? ter, dear." "Many Woeser Girls."?Professor Chapman, professor of rhetoric at Bowdoin college, was the bright particular star in the alumni dinner the other night. He boomed the little institution "away down in Maine" in & manner that delighted the boys. "Bowdoin may have some failings," he said, "but I've known many a worse alma mater than she. In this respect I-feel like the little daughter of a friend of mine in Portland. She had just mastered the art of expressing herself in intelligent sentences. One day she had done something for which her mamma had to reprove her. The lady gave her daughter a sound lecture, and then told her to go up stairs, alone in her room, and ask God to forgive her for her error. "In a few minutes she was surprised to see the baby come down stairs again, appear in the sitting-room, and stand back with a great deal of seriousness. "Well, did you go up and do what I told you ?" asked the fond mother. "Yes," replied the guilty one, "and God said : 'Great Scott, Elsie Murray, I've known a great many worser girls than you.' "?Boston Herald. Too Shrewd for Him.?An old laboring man appeared befor the court as a witness. The lawyer for the defendant tried to confuse him. "You are Frederick Miller," said he. "I am," replied the laborer. "Are you the Frederick Miller who was sentenced under mitigating circumstances for robbery ?" "No, I am not that Miller." "You are, perhaps, the Miller who was sentenced to two years' impnsomeni ior theft?" "No, I am not that Miller either." "Were you ever in prison ?" "Yes?twice." "How long the first time?" "A whole afternoon." "An afternoon ? And the second time ? You must make truthful statements, you know, for you are sworn. If you were in prison for so short a time what did you do?" "I only whitewashed a cell ready for your brother, who had been committed for cheating his clients." The lawyer did not ask any more questions on that subject.?Spare Moments. A Bragging Match.?A Parisian paper relates the following story of a contest in boasting which, it says, took place between three artists of Marseilles. It should be explained that Parisian writers always put their "tall talk" into the mouths of Marseilles people. "My dear," said one of the artists, "yesterday I painted a pine board in imitation of marble, and did it with such fidelity that when the board was put into a pond of water it sunk like stone." "Poor!" said the second; "that is nothing. Yesterday I happened to hang up my thermometer on the back of the frames of my 'View in the Arctic Regions,' and the mercury instantly went down to twenty degrees below zero." "All that is nothing at all," said the third artist. "You know my portrait of the old Marquis of Camargne ? Well, it is so life-like that it has to be shaved three times a week " One Thing or Another.?A certain amount of crying is believed to be necessary, or at any rate beneficial to small children, and they act, generally, as if they were not disposed to lose any of the benefits of this exercise. Little Tommy sat on the floor one day, weeping long and bitterly. All at once he stopped. "Mamma," said he, tremblingly, "whwhat was I crying about ?" . His mother smiled. "Because I wouldn't let you take the bronze horse off the mantel to play with, I believe," she said." "Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo!" Tommy began to cry again harder than ever, but presently he gasped: "No?'twant' that. I 'member?it was 'cause you would't let me go out?in the cold?but I'm goin' to?to cry about the horse now?boo-hoo-hoo!" In a New Light.?The pastor was endeavoring to persuade the millionaire to give up at least a portion 01 nis eariniy interests and turn his attention to more spiritual matters. "You say," said Crcesus, "that a rich man | cannot enter the kingdom of heaven ?" "The scriptures say so," corrected the pas- j tor kindly, "and I only repeat what they say, believing them fully." "And I can take none of my wealth with \ me," inquired the rich man. "You certainly cannot." "No part of it?" "No part of it." "Then I shall be as poor as the poorest when I come to be judged, and what difference does it make one way or the other ?" The pastor took the question to his study for deliberation.?Detroit Free Press. WaP Citizen (to tramp)?Say, do you want a job ? Tramp (haughtily)?Do you know who I am, sir? ^istcllaneous flcMing. ALLIANCE PRESIDENTS AT BIRMINGHAM. They Issue an Address of Counsel to th< Southern Brethren. Week before last we reproduced from th< Washington Post, a call to the Allianc< presidents of the various Southern States asking that they assemble in Birminghan on Tuesday, May 3, for the purpose of taking counsel on certain matters that were to b< then and there laid before them. The meet ing was held according to appointment, anc as the result of its deliberations, the follow ing address was issued on Wednesday: To the Brotherhood of the National Farm ers' Alliance and Industrial Union : We, th< presidents and executive officers of the States of Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri Texas, Louisiana, Virginia, Mississippi, Ala bama, Georgia, West Virginia and Florida together with the members of our nationa executive committee, national legislativ< committee, national judiciary committee anc President L. L. Polk, having been called to gether in council to consider reported pecul iar conditions in tne oraer iu luc ovumm States, which, it was believed, seriouslj threatened that harmony, brotherly love anc unity of action so necessary to the success of our cause and the success of our ordei in these States, after counseling togeth er and hearing detailed reporM, rejoice to say to you that we feel greatly e icouragec and inspired by the splendid spir., of unitj and determined adherence to the principle which pervades the order in nea ly everj one of these States, notwithsta ding the combined efforts of our enemies to ow seeds of discord in our ranks pending he ted polit ical contests, local and national. We therefore feel it our duty as servants of the people we represent, standiug upoi the outposts and watch towers of he great est political revolution ever knr ?n to the nation, to say to you we have en! ;red a cru cial period in the history of our great re form movement, in which the greatest cau tion, earnest deliberation and strict adher ence to our principles are necessary to pre serve intact that organization which stands today as the sheet anchor and hope of mil lions of wealth producers in the great battle for the God-given rights of humanity. You are congratulated upon the great harmonj and unity of sentiment in regard to Alliance principles which prevails within your borders, and upon the fact that a careful canvass of the subject at this meeting has shown that practically the members of the order in these States stand squarely upon their demands, with the determination of holding devotion </\ thom aKava that to anv method of action, and that today the number of those who sc endorse the principles of the Alliance is much greater than ever before. The sentiment also prevails, strong and uniform, that the great order as an organizaton is the greatest of all modern forces for the spread of reform education, and that its work must be perpetuated and encouraged in this high sphere entirely free from any partisan entanglements. The only dangers which seem in any way to threaten the lack of fullest development and prosperity of the order, are those which attend the disposition of a few men and papers to publicly criticise and condemn others for their methods. This is not of sufficient extent to damage the order, but it mars that perfect unity that should prevail and always injures all concerned and is contrary to the spirit of brotherly love and forbearance that should prevail. Another evil, which fortunately prevails only in a very few localities, is the disposition of members to seek political office at the hands of their brethren, forgetting that principle of Alliance doctrine which declares that office should seek the man and not the man the office. In consideration of these views as to the situation, the following rules of action are suggested as well as calculated to enable the order to go through the coming ordeal oi fierce political contest , and come; out strengthened and purified : 1. Let the spirit of harmony prevail, and let unity of action be the rule. Let none condemn the brother who stands squarely by the principles or tne oraer or speaa m uujway disparagingly or disrespectfully of him because they may differ as to the best methods of enforcing our principles. Grant tc every brother honesty of purpose. 2. Let fealty to the principles of the order be the true and only test of membership, and let those who value partisan affiliations more than their Alliance obligations, be iuformed that their order demands strict and full devotion to its principles, and leaves each tc his own choice as to methods, hut that method can in no case control principle, and therefore, all who affiliate should accept as supreme the principles of the order. 3. Every member who takes the obligation always administered to those who join it, is first told as a condition precedent, and upon which all that is to follow is predicated, "that it shall in no way interfere with your political or religious liberty.'' Therefore, this order, as such, or any of its branches, has no right to take any partisan, political or sectarian religious action. We urge upon the brotherhood of all reform organizations and all good citizens, who believe as we do, that the enactment of laws based upon our demands is for the preservation of the free institutions of our government and to rescue the masses from degraded servitude, that they use all honorable means to secure the election of men to our national legislative council who stand pledged to work for the passage of such laws." Finally, brethren, remember that devotion to our principles can only be emphasized and our influence made effective by voting for our demands at the ballot-box. We send greeting to the brotherhood in the North and great Northwest, and assure them that our hearts beat in unison with them in their efforts for industrial freedom, and we will stand by them in all laudable efforts to redeem this country from the clutches of organized capital, and that we will stand with them at the ballot-box for the enforcement of our demauds. Signed by all members of the conference, PAINLESS DENTISTRY. Many years ago, writes a Western corresrespondent, a group of cowboys rode into the frontier town of Prairieville, and while cantering down the principal sueet, came to a sign?"Painless Dentist." ?.'hey emptied the contents of their revolvers into it, and then one of the company dismounted and announced his intention to go in and get a sore tooth attended to. "And I don't pay any fancj price for it, neither," he muttered, as lie walked noisily into the office. The dentist was a quiet-looking young man of twenty-five. "See here!" shouted the cow-boy, as h< advanced toward the chair, "I want a tootl fixed, and I don't want any high-tonec prices charged, either." He threw himself into the chair, hitchet his belt around in front of him, laid his re volver across his lap, aud told the dentis that if he hurt him he would shoot the toj of his head off. "Very well," replied the, dentist, with j slight laugh; "then you must take gas, foi this is a bad tooth and will give trouble." The cow boy swore, but finally yielded and with a parting threat submitted to tin respiration, and presently was insensible. With great skill the man of the forceps pull ed the tooth, and then, before his custome: regained consciousness, he securely tied hin hand and foot to the chair, which was firm ly screwed to the floor. Then taking tlx bully's revolver out of his belt, the dentis took up his position where the patient couk see him when he came to. As the cow boy struggled back to con sciousness, the first thing of which he wai sensible was the dentist pointing the revol ver at him, and saying in quiet tones : "Now then, don't move. Just open you mouth as wide as possible, and I will shoo the bad tooth off This is the paiuless pro cess. No danger, sir, unless you happen t< swallow the bullet. Are you ready ? Thei here goes! One, two, three." Bang! went the revolver, knocking a hob in the wall, and the dentist rushed forwan: holding out the tooth in his hand to sliov the now terrified bully, who roared for mer cy and begged to be released, thinking tha he had fallen into the hands of a madman. The dentist finally cut his bonds on coudi tion that his customer should restore the rid died sign outside of the office. And aftei paying five dollars for the extracted tooth which the dentist grimly declared to be tlx regular price for painless operations, tlx crestfallen cowboy departed, convinced tha appearances are sometimes deceitful, am that even a tenderfoot may have nerve. THE HIGHLAND COOK. > During the earlier visits of the royal fnmi. ly to Balmoral, Prince Albert, dressed in a very simple manner, was crossing one of the j Scotch lakes in a steamer, and was curious , ; to note everything relating to the manage* I ment of the vessel, and among other things , cooking. Approaching the "galley," where j a brawny Highlander was attending to the j culinary matters, he was attracted by the 1 savory odors of a compound known by ' Scotchmen as "hodge-podge," which the < 1 Highlander was preparing. > "What is that?" asked the prince, who 5 was not known to the cook. "Hodge-podge, sir," was the reply. , \ "How is it made?" was the next question. ' "Why, there's mutton intil't, and turnips intil't, and carrots intil't, and " "Yes, yes," said the prince, who had not learned that "intil't" meant "into it," ex- ' 5 pressed by the contraction intil't; "but what } is intil't?" > "Why, there's mutton intil't, and turnips intil't, and carrots intil't, and?" ] > "Yes, I see, but what is intil't?" 1 The man looked at him, and seeing that J the prince was serious, he replied : ' "There's mutton intil't, and turnips intil't, , and?" j "Yes, certainly, I know," urged the in1 ouirer : "but what is intil't?intil't?" r "Ye daft gowk!" yelled the Highlander, ' \ brandishing his big spoon, "am I no telling * what's intil't? There's mutton intil't, : and?" Here the interview was brought to a close ' by one of the prince's suite, who was for1 tunately passing, and stepped in to save his ' royal highness from being rapped over the 5 head with the big spoon. Too Honest.?Over in Missouri there is a 5 certain plank road and a certain tollgate. Beside the tollgate there is a farmhouse, on the cool and comfortable porch whereof the ' worthy farmer usually sits, waiting to collect 1 toll, while his boy Billy plows his corn in the field way beyond. On a recent occasion, 5 however, this worthy farmer happened to be over in the field helping his boy Bill, when a , pious looking stranger drove up to the tollgate. There was no one in the farmhouse, no one nearer than the farmer and his boy Bill, [ half a mile away in the field. The tollgate was unlocked?open, in fact?but this pious ' stranger was temptation proof. He hitched his horse to a tree and proudly floundered ' out to where the farmer and Bill were at ' work. "My good man," said he, "are you the ' keeper of this tollgate?" ' "Yep," said the farmer. "What is the toll ?" i "Five cents." 1 "Well, I wish to drive through, my good ' man, and here is your five cents." ' The worthy farmer scratched his head 1 anxiously for a brief period. ] ' "Did you come out here just to pay me . that nickle ?" he asked presently. "For no other nurnose. my cood sir," and 1 the pious appearing man ambled soulfully ' away. "Bill," said the farmer to his boy in an agitated undertone, "get on the old gray mare ! and watch that stranger till he gets to town." ' A Prudent Wife.?A traveling man, who ; was also at the head of a prosperous firm, promised his newly made wife that he would ; give her a dollar every time he kissed her, ! and in that way she could save plenty of 1 money. Things went on that way for sever- i , al years, and as he made plenty of money, he ' faithfully kept his promise. Finally, reverses came, and the once prosperous traveling ; ! man found he was virtually a pauper. He ! went home to his wife and told her all. She, , . however, did not seem to feel worried, and he was somewhat surprised when she asked . , him to take a ride with her that afternoon, , [ but he accepted her invitation. Passing a , large block on a well known street, she said, "That's mine." Soon she came to a hand, some flat, and said, "That's mine." Well, 1 she showed him several places, with the * r same remark, until he began to be suspicious, 1 ' and inquired: "How in the deuce did you oa TYtnnK ivaaUli 9" ?T)n VA11 rp.? ' acuuiuuiaic ou muvu ??~ v? ? member the contract you made when we \ J were first married ?" "Yes," he replied, "I 1 , do." "Well, I invested it, and it has made us rich." The traveling man hung his head and said 1 J nothing. This was kept up for thirty miu- 1 ( utes, until his wife, becoming alarmed, asked : "What in the world is the matter, and < . what are you thinking about?" He said: ] I "I was thinking of how rich we would be if < | I had doue all my kissing at home." ? ? i Wild Dogs in the North.?In the Lake < , of the Woods country, which may be de- i scribed as a wilderness of forest, rock and hrushwood. a race of wild dogs have estab- i < lished themselves and are increasing in num- 1 bers so rapidly that fears are entertained that , the animals will become troublesome. When the Canadian Pacific railway was under con- 1 struction, the camps of the workmen had ( of course to be frequently moved, and dogs j ! were often left behind, and eventually, like wolves and foxes, found means of sustaining . themselves. The animals are large, lean, short haired 1 ( and generally red, or red and white in color. 1 i They are exceedingly wild and fiy on the first!' approach of man. In winter they live by j ! catching rabbits that abound in the wilder- i' , ness of brushwood; in summer the wild dogs j' ' catch fish that crowd the smaller streams j1 that connect inland lakes. The Indians de- j I ! test the wild dogs, as they pursue game and ! , take the bait from traps and are a general; | nuisance. Sometimes a wild dog is taken in ! i a trap that has been set for other animals, < but the beasts are exceedingly cunning,! i swift and watchful. Nature's Make -ok Beeswax.?At the ! mouth of Nehalem river, on the coast of Or- i' , egon, a very queer substance is found. It' i [ has the appearance of a mineral at first sight, j but on close inspection and under practical i ] I test it appears to be pure beeswax. It has | , all the useful properties of beeswax, and is j j s sold in Astoria at the regular market price of ( . the beeswax. It is washed ashore at high! tide in quantities ranging from the size of a j walnut to a chunk weighing 150 pounds. It I is also found on shore in black soil where j, trees are growing at considerable elevation j above the water. A piece of this strange substance has just been submitted to expert:, ! examination in New York, and is declared j to be what is known as mineral wax. t | t [ _ In no Hurry.?Mrs. O'F?Can I have; my husband put in jail for slapping me in j the mouth." j' Magistrate?Certainly ; that is assault and i battery." j "Well, I'll come around in about a month and make the charge." ' j "Why not have him arrested at once ?" i 41 "Well, you see. when he slapped me I hit j '1 him in the head with a rollin'-pin and he's j , I now in the hospital and the doctors say he j i won't be able to get out for a month yet." . SaT" Practical Electricity announces that a k new electric carriage will soon be exhibited , on the streets of Boston that will go up hill and down hill at a rate of from ten to fifteen miles an hour. It is of course run with stor rage cells, and the prediction is made that it will be largely used in country cross routes, \ off the lines of railroad, for transportation, i I and also as a private carriage, if the cost is ! not too great. Electric transit is coining and j coming fast. ! Babies Have no Passion.?Babies don't . cry for the sake of crying, or to make others ! ? uncomfortable. They know no such thing k as passion, and hence cannot cry from anger, j \ A baby cannot swear, scold, pout or vent its j displeasure by boxing some one's ears, kick-1 .! ing the dog, or indulging in any such antics 1 s! which so relieve an adult's pent up feelings.! a?"
