A physician could many a queer tale un- told. One of Ottawa’s leading practitioners is authority for the statement that young girls and women, but in particular the former, are addicted to peculiar practices in eating. Here are a few of the things they continually munch: Chalk, old tea leaves, blue clay, starch, clay pipes, lime, ate pencils and slate stone._ They eat A notable incident of the speeohmaking was the presentation of a substitute for bagging by rresident Livingstone, of the Georgia State Alliance. He said : “ If we admit for the sake o! argument that the fight against jute has been a failure, it has done one thingâ€"it has developed the genius of the South. I hold in my hand a piece of cotton bagging made irom common stalk and a piece of rope made from the same Italk. It can be sold for four cents a yard and weighs two pounds to the yard. (Prolonged applause.) The farmer can come to Atlanta, buy a few castings and make the machine at home with which to manufacture this bagging. He can manu- facture it in the winter and in wet weather. It will be worth $1,000,000 to the South. When the farmer learns to produce the necessaries of life at home and not send to Illinois and the Northern States for them he will cease to be a hewer of wood and drawer of water. The farmers don't seek to oppress the merchant or manufacturer, but merely to lead them into the channels of legitimatetrade.” The persons married are Mr. Walker Downs.a Newton county merchant, and Miss Mamie Winburn. of Conyers, and Mr. Henry R. Wells and Miss Alice Whaley, of Gwinnette county. They will be given a reception to-morrow at the grounds, when they will be presented with the gifts which have been sent by all the exhibitors at the exposition and merchants from ali over Georgia. Governor Gordon was booked to perform the marriage ceremony. An in- vestigation of the law, however, made by Chief Justice Bleckley, revealed the fact that the Governor had no authority to ofiiciate. in the emergency Rev. Dr. Bar- nett, pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church, and Rev. 0. H. Morrison, pastor of the First Methodist Church, were substituted. A remarkable scene oc- curred in the city on Whitehall street an hour later. As the bridal pro- cession was returning the proprietor of a leading dry goods house oflered them $50 each it they would eat dinner from a table placed in the show window. The propo- sition was accepted and thousands of people packed the street to watch the strange wedding feast. Ln Anti-Jute Double Wedding at the Pled- mcnt Exposition. Au Atlanta, Ga., despatoh gives fuller particulars of the double public wedding as follows: Henry W. Grady gave away two brides, giving each a sounding smack upon the lips. Governor Gordon, who was standing near, followed suit, and the crowd yelleditselt hoarse. All this occurred at the Piedmont Exposition. It was Alliance day, and the central event was the double marriage of enthusiastic young Alliance men, the bridal party being arrayed in suits of cotton bagging as a symbol of their contempt for the Jute Trust. There wasa magnificent pyrotechnic displa son the grounds at night. The groun s are almost large enough for a world’s fair, but they were covered with people. There are eighty thousand Alliance men in Georgia. and it seemed as it every One was on hand with his family. As Jones, Livingstone, Polk and Gordon spoke there were cries of “ Bring on the brides,” and when at last the speakers’ stand was cleared and the band struck up a wedding march the crowd went wiid. The stand was between the grand stand and the race track. At a given signal the two bridal parties came up. Each pair were seated in a carriage draped in cotton bagging and flags, drawn by four white horses, which were covered with the cotton bagging. The two car~ riages were headed by bands, and at the stand was another. The bridal carriages were followed by others, some of them be- ing the finest private turnouts in Atlanta. Mr. Grady and the directors of the exposi- tion received them at the stand and two eminent diyines stood ready to perform the marriage ceremony. Both brides were good lookingâ€"one of them particularly so. The grooms were rather plain looking. The gowns of the brides were trimmed with satins and laces until they looked quite well, but the cotton bagging suits of the men were rather “jay.” There was nothing particularly distinctive about the ceremonies, except the comment of the crowd. After it was over there were con- gratulaticns, and then the show was made particularly interesting by a contest be- tween the cotton bagging cowboys and the jute Indiana, the cotton boys winning, of course. He closed by saying: “ Let the farmers of the South produce what they consume, save money, educate their children, and when the boys and girls grow up to man- hood and womnnhood marry them in cotton bagging."

Emperor William Visit: a British Man- of-War and Talks Some. An Athens cable of Wednesday says: A state ball was given at the palace last night which was attended by 3,000 guests. The Royal and Imperial personages present marched in procession through the ball- room. Emperor William, escorting the Queen of Greece, led the march. They were followed by the King of Greece and the Empress of Germany, the Czsrowitz and the Princess of Wales, the Duke of Sparta and the Princess of Saxe-Meiningen, and Prince Henry of Prussia and his sister, Princess Sophie, the bride of the Duke of Sparta. There were only three dances. Emperor William to-day paid a visit to the British fleet in the Piraeus. Emperor William took luncheon today on board the British flagship Dreudneught. In responding to a toast to his health he expressed his pleasure and pride at being created an Admiral of the fleet by Queen Victoria. From his boyhood, when he rambled in Portsmouth dookyard, he had taken the deepest interest in the fleet. “I congratulate you,” he said, “ upon the result of my inspection. To-day Nelson’s famous signal is no longer necessary. You all do your duty. We, as young naval nations, come to England to learn from the first navy in the world.” In concluding he asked for three cheers for the English navy. The German officers heartily responded. Emperor William will start for Constanti- nople to-xnorrow afternoon. The British and German fleets will escort him from the Piraeus. Serious Results of the Bomb Explosion A Franklin, Pa., despatoh says; The bomb explosion at the Galloway school- house on Friday, by which so many school children were injured, is having more serious results than expected. The explo- sion was the result of criminal careless- ness on the part of two young men, who filled a gas pipe with giant powder and allowed the children to play with it. Over thirty children were in close proximity. Eighteen were injured. Seven are in a critical condition, and it is thought four will ‘die. The men are under arrest. A Methodist Parson Yankcd Out of a Catholic Pulpitâ€"Mob Law Prevails. A Topeka, Kan., despatch of Thursday says : Adjutant-General Roberts received a. telegram to-day from the Mayor of Axtell asking that militia be sent at once to quell a riot there. General Roberts ordered out Company “ G ” of the Third Regiment at Marysville, and left on the first train for the scene. Only meagre particulars have been received. Axtell, a town of 700 people, is settled largely by Roman Catholics. On Wednesday a Methodist minister named J chosen. from the eastern part of the State, arrived at Axtell to hold a revival meeting. In the audience were a number of Catholics. The minister assailed the Catholic Church so abusiver that a Catholic present called him a liar. He continued his remarks, and four Catholics rushed to the pulpit, and taking the preacher by the collar threw him down. In a moment the pulpit was surrounded by an angry mob, and a general row ensued. Although the Catholics were in the minority they were too much for the Methodists, and suc- ceeded in throwing the preacher and two others out of the house. The whole town was soon aroused. Four Catholics were arrested and put in the city prison. This enraged the Catholic population, and they organized this morning to assist their imprisoned associates. The town of St. Bridget, a few miles distant. is settled entirely by the Catholics, and it is reported the whole town is organizing to go to the rescue oi the Axtell Catholics. The Mayor says he is powerless to control the mob and fears a conflict between the two ele- menis. All England is crazy on the subject 0! paper pillows.

At one time he was at a German watering place and took a walk in company with his six oldest daughters. Some Germans, a little behind him, gazed at the procession, and presently one of them remarked in an undertone: ‘- Alas, poor man.” Lord Lonsdale caught the words and turned immediately. “ Oh, no, sir; not so poor as you think.

" A LITTLE CHURCH VOL XII The Commercial Instinct. ATHENS EN FETE. Had More' at Home. Pillows of Paper. “ SOBAI’." The next witness was Captain Thomas F. O'Connor, who created excitement in Camp 20 on the night of February 8th by saying he had heard read in Dr. Cronin’s camp a report of the committee that tired the triangle. Captain O’Connor said Andrew Foy was the first man to speak. Foy arose in his place in the camp and addressed the Senior Guardian. and stated that he arose under a terrible strain, that after the disclosures of Le Caron in London the organization, as an organization, was no more. That there were four British spies in the organization, and that it should he reorganized, and every one that was in the organization who had the slightest taint or suspicion attached to him should be expelled, “ I,” continued the witness, “ arose and stated that I was not surpriaed at hearing the gentleman talk as he had done ; that I knew by positive information that the organization was run by a parcel of rogues known as our executive body ; that they had squandered our funds even to the extent of $100,000, and not alone that, but they had sent our best men across to England to have them put behind the bars. I stated positively that Le Caron was an agent of our executive body and received pay from them. I was interrupted by three brothers with a demand to tell where I got my in- formation. I did not like the first brother who spoke to me, and I said, “You demand nothing.’ when there were two or three other brothers who joined in the demand and there was a general uproar, so I turned around to the Senior Guardian and I said to him, ‘ I! the Senior Guardian demands of me where I got my information I will tell him.‘ He did not say anything. Then there was more uproar. I turned a second time and a third time, and said if the Senior Guardian would demand where I got my information I would tell him. Then I stated I had heard a terrible report of the trial committee in Buffalo, and that I had also seen a written report, 800 pages of closely written long hand, about the trial, and that I was positive of my statement. At that instant Dan Coughlin, member of the camp, arose and said, ‘ Mr. Guardian, I move you that a secret committee of three be appointed to find out the source of Captain O’Connor’s intormaticn.’ These were his words. Then there was some one else on his feet, and the Senior Guardian rapped the camp to order, as it was such a tumultuous time. such turmoil, and somebody spoke, and he sald, ‘ I will hear no more of this subject, and I will appoint a committee.’ ” At the moment , Patrick Nolan, Financial Secretary of Camp 20, produced his record book, and from it testified as to the numbers borne by Coughlin, Cooney, O‘Sullivan, Begge and Burke. Witness further testified that he was present at a meeting of the camp on the night of May 3rd. the day preceding Dr. Cronin'e death; that Begge presided; that there was a call for the report of the Secret Committee appointed February 8th, and that Begge replied that the committee was to report to him alone. Witness said that on the Sunday following Dr. Cronin'e dieappearnnoe he met Burke and Cooney about 3 o‘clock in the afternoon in a saloon. This was before witness knew of Cronin’e disappearance. They went to another saloon and played cards for a couple of hours. The first witness was Dennis O’Connor. He testified that he was s memberof Camp 20, Olen-ne-Gsel. At a meeting of the camp on Feb. 8th the witness said he heard Thomas O‘Connor state that he had heard read in Dr. Cronin’s camp the min- ority report of the committee to try the executive body of the order. The names of the members of the executive body were not mentioned, and witness said he never knew who composed the triangle. Then it was voted to appoint e. committee to go up to Dr. Cronin’s camp and investigate the matter of the minority report which Dt. Cronin had read. Oronin Was Suspected of Being a Spyâ€"The Jury Carefully Guarded. A Chicago despatoh of Wednesday says : At the opening of the court in the Cronin trial this morning State‘s Attorney Longe- necker asked for an attachment for Edward Spellman, of Peoria, the district officer of the Clan-na-Geel. Mr. Longenecker said Spellman had been served with a subpoena, and had agreed to come when called for. Two telegrams has been sent to him, but he had not responded. The attachment was issued. 7‘ Who was the Senior Guardian at this time? " , “ John F. Beggs." THE TRIAL COMMITTEE’B REPORT. On cross-examination Captain O‘Conn-or said he did not say in his speech of Febru- ary 8th that Cronin read the report of the trial of the triangle, nor did he say in what camp it was read. He said that after he was subpoenaed to appear before the coro- ner's jury he met Beggs, and asked him if he should disclose the secrets of the organ- ization. Beggs told him to go ahead. as they were already public property. The witness said he had heard of the “ Inner circle " as applied to the executive body, but never in connection with individual camps. O’Connor said he had been at work on the Cronin case without pay up to September 26th, when he was appointed a policeman. - On redirect examination it was brought out that there were five or six members of Camp 20 present when the witness made his speech on February 8th who were in the other camp when the report regarding the triangle trial was given, and were therefore cognizant of the facts as to the camp in which it was given and who gave it. He explained it was a verbal, not a written report. There were eighteen or twenty members of Camp 20 in the other camp when the report was made. That report, said he, was made by the late Dr. Cronin, in Cronin’s camp. Subsequently Cronin showed the witness the written report. Witnesses From the Inner Circle of the Glan-na-Gael. The next witness, Henry Owen O'Con- nor, a. member of Camp 20, described the proceeflings at the meetings of February 8th and 22nd without bringing out any new points. At a subsequent meeting, however, he said Dan Conghlin came to him and said information had been received in Chicago that a. confederate of LeOa'mn was in the organization, and indications pointed CLOSING IN THE NET. THE GRON IN TRIAL. AN ORGANIZATION “ BUN BY BOGUES." RICHMOND HILL THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1889. A VERY SECRET TRIANGLE THE CAMP RECORD BOOK. The Trial Progressing. A Chicago deepatoh says: When the Cronin trial was resumed to-day, counsel for the defence moved to strike out; all of that part of Patrick McGurry’s evidence given yesterday, in which McGarry de- scribed his visit to the house of defendant O‘Sullivan after Cronin’s murder, and at which time he questioned O'Sulliven about his contract wish Cronin. After argument it was decided to postpone a decision on the point till this niternoon,in order to allow couneei‘time to present authorities. George Reilly, a bar-keeper, was called. He testified that in the latter part of March Coughlin, O’Sullivan and others were in the saloon talking politics when Coughlin said a certain North side Catholic was talking too much, and that if 313 did not keep his mouth shut he would get the worst of it. The State’s Attorney sought to introduce the correspondence between Begge and S pellman. Mr. Foster. attorney for Beggs, said he was ready to admit anything that Begge ever wrote, but that he could say nothing about letters written by any one else. So the matter went over, pending the appearance of Spellman. W. P. Hatefield, salesman {or Revell & 00., told of selling to “J. B. Simonds " the furniture taken to the flat at No. 117 Clark street, and subsequently conveyed to the Carlson cottage. The only new point developed was that Simonds said the furni- tute was " for temporary use.” THE BLOOD‘STAINED TRUNK IN COURT. The trunk in which Cronin‘s body was carried away was brought into court. Hate- field testified that it was similarto the one sold to Simonds. On etcss‘examination he said he could not swear it was the identical trunk, because the firm kept such on hand always, and perhaps other dealers did also. It came out that Mr. Forest, of counsel for the defence, had bought such a trunk from the witness. Witness could not swear positively that the furniture in the Carleton cottage was the same furni- ture sold to simonds, but he said it was precisely like it. The only papers the men are allowed to read are the New York illustrated weeklies, which are first carefully looked over by the bailiffs, who cutout all the references to the Cronin case. Four times a day the jurymen form in line and march two by two to and from Judge MoConnell's court room. This peculiar procession does not fail to draw a crowd, and usually by the time the line reaches its destination it has grown to t_w_ioe its formersjze. PEOBIA, 111., Oct. 31,â€"Edward Spellman, the prominent distiller and District Dele- gate of the Clan-na-Gael, who is wanted in Chicago as a witness in the Cronin trial. has disappeared. Nobody seems to know where he is. Patrick McGerry, Senior Guardian of the Clan-na-Gael Camp in Lakeview, instituted by Dr. Cronin, and of which Dr. Cronin was a member, was the next witness. He described the reunion meet- ing on Feb. 22nd, without adding material information. and he told of a visit he made to the house of O’Sullivan on the ' Sunday following Dr. Cronin’s death. He there questioned O’Sullivan very closely about his contract with Dr. Cronin to treat his men in case of accident, and described the twitching of O‘Sullivan’s moustache. HOW THE JURY FARE. The county furnishes the jury with seven rooms ands. private dining room. One of the seven apartments is used as a reception room, where the wives of the jurymen occasionally visit them in the evening. Another apartment is used as a smoking room, and still another is used for a general sitting room. In the latter are kept the piano and other musical instru. ments. There is also considerable gym- nastic apparatus, such as dumb-bells, Indian clubs, pulley-weights. etc. Both the gymnasium and piano are furnished by Juror North. After recess the jury was excluded and the matter of striking out McGarry‘s evidence as to what was said during this visit to O’b‘nllivan’e house on the Sunday following the murder was taken up. The court finally decided to exclude all the talk regarding a former attack on Dr. Croninn This was not satisfactory to the defence, and anosher flow of eloquence resulted. Finally the cross-examination of McGarry was resumed. to Dr. Cronin as the men. The witness stopped him at that point. THE TRIANGLE DENOUNCED. Police Officer John M. Collins testified that he had been a member of Camp 20. He said thst at the reunion given by 22, Dick Powers and Pat McGarry made speeches denouncing the trisn 19. Then Beggs said this tirade against t 6 triangle and Alex. Sullivan must cease or there would be war. That Sullivan had many friends there. “Major” John W. Sampson afterwards testified that about two years ago Coughlin tried to hire him to “ slug" Dr. Cronin. The witness, on oroes‘examination, ad- mitted that Coughlin had arrested him three or four times, once for robbery. that he had been convicted of passing counter- feit money, that he was a gambler by pro‘ tension, but denied that he followed Mr. Blaine through Michigan when he was making speeches last fall, or Governor Bill, or Senator Thurman for the purpose of picking pookete. He said he went to some of these places for the purpose of securing sporting privileges. He naively explained that he was “ playing de shells.” which is a variation of what is known as three-card monte. V min AUTHORITIES wean WATCHING. William Lynn said he was with Sampson at the time that Coughlin and Sampson had a conversation, the purport of which he did not hear. , Joseph 0.0'Keeie, Dr. Cronin’s tailor, said he attended a meeting of Camp 20 in September, 1888. After the meeting he had a conversation with Beggs about Cronin and Alexander Sullivan. The wit- ness said : We spoke first in reference to the union of the two rival factions of the Order. Beggs said he did not have much confidence in the new Executive. Then the Trial Committee was discussed, and he said Cronin was not the proper man to put on the committee to try Alexander Sulli- van. I said Cronin did not have as un- savory a. record as James Rogers, of Brook- lyn; another one of the Trial Committee. Beggs then said Cronin had admitted Coughlin as a member at Camp 96 without a formal initiation, and had furnished him with passwords; Itold him Cronin was too sincere a patriot to do anything of that kind. Isaid I would ask Cronin in reference to it. Beggs then said Cronin was 'not a fit man to belong to Irish societies. On cross-examination it was brought out that Begga‘obieoted to Cronin’s being on the oommiitee to try the Triangle because he was an enemy of Alexander Snllivm. FORMER ATTACKS 0N CRONIN. Disabled Vessels and Starving Crews Left to Their Fate. A New York despatoh of Monday night says : The Old Dominion steamship Wyanoke, which arrived here from Norfolk to-day, reports that yesterday, off the Dela- ware Capes, the schooner J. G. Morse, of Portland, Maine, was spoken dismantled and disabled. Her captain said the larger part of his crew had been washed over- board, and his vessel was unable to reach port. The mate has died of exposure. The captain and two sailors were the only ones on board, and they were all sick and scarcely able to work. Captain Humphrey, of the Wyanoke offered to take the schooner in tow, but the schooner's captain declined his offer. He asked that enough men be given him to take his vessel into port. Captain Humphrey was unable to comply with the request. A lifeboat was sent with provisions to the schooner, but the sea was so rough that the attempt to reach her was abandoned and the vessel was left to her fate. Five miles further north the Wyanoke spoke two disabled Italian ves- sels. The barque Western Belle, from Ivilo, 197 days out, arrived here to-day dis- mantled. Four of her crew were disabled by injuries received during rough weather. Mr. Baker had an interview with Heifer yesterday afternoon, but he is pretty well convinced that this man knows nothing but what he has picked up on the street or from persons who visited him while in jail. Gillett is the only men who is at all likely to tell a story which would go down with 5' jury, but Mr. Baker is very much afraid that 'his removal from the penitentiary to a. Chicago witness box would be a diflicult matter. Baker hopes to get away to-mor- row morning. It has been ascertained from other sources that Burke had a narrow escape from assassination at the hands of the Clen-na-Gael before his arrest in Winni- pez. Aletter has been found which was posted at East Selkirk shortly after the murder, referring to Burke, in which the writer said he would carry out the instructions of the order. but insisted on having his own way and time, if he was to succeed in getting rid of Burke. This shows that Burke was to have been assas- sinated while travelling to Liverpool. Burke hadacouple of Fenian friends in Winnipeg, who secreted a mysterious tin box for him. This contained Cronin's clothes, which were of the finest make. There is no doubt, from Gillette’s statements, that the contradictions as to the disposal of Cronin’s body after the murder are easily explainahle. A Berlin cable of Wednesday says: During the debate on the budget in the Reiohatag to-day Herr Vernora refuted a. statement made by Herr Babel, the Social- ist lender, that Russia ia_ Germany’s hereditary fee. The Sovereigns, he said, are united in desiring peace. and he hoped their effort: to maintain it would be auc- coastal. A Winnipeg despatoh of Thursday says : George Baker, Assistant State's Attorney, of Chicago, drove out to Stony Mountain to-day, accompanied by Mr. H. M. Howell, and had a talk with Gillette,theimprisoned forger. Gillette gave a detailed account of Burke's confession to him and other prisoners. There were some new points of interest. Gillette said that Burke continu- ally insisted on making confidante at him and the other prisoners, and often cried like a child over the murder. He told how Dr. Cronin was lured to the Carlson cottage and slugged, and repeated the story wired yesterday. Cronin was attacked while entering the cottage, and made a greater fight than his assailants expected. Herr Von Bennigsen said Germany’s position in Europe compelled her to wear heavy armor, and she would take every- thing to enable her to wage a possible war Victoriously. He favored the appointment of an Imperial Minister of Finance with undiviieg {esponslbiljty Dr. Windttforst indicated the willingness of the Centre party to grant money for defences if necessary. It is rumored the Centreists will introduce a. motion pro- viding for the exemption from military service of candidates for the ministry of all denominations up to the age of 26, and for the total exemption of ordained ministers. _A Plymouth, Mesa, despatoh of Thurs- dtiy says: The Grand Jury to-day found a bill against Joseph Debarroe, of New Bed- foz'd, for manslaughter. Debut-r03, is the 8-year-old Bortugueae boy who last Septem- bor was charged with causing the death of a playmate in a cranberry bog in Plymouth by stabbing him with a jack-knife. He was tried in the district court and die- ohnrged. It is not known whether the boy is in this country now or not. An afternoon paper says that soon after the disappearance of Cronin the State put spies upon Camp 20, and a- men concealed in the hall during some of its meetings took notes of its_ proceedings. _ A Paterson. N.J., despatch says: A large new three story brick dwelling, nearly completed. and owned by Charles 0. Farmer, fell at Passaic City to-day with a terrific crash, burying sixteen workmen. Everyone about the place was more or less injured. The workmen were dug out of the debris by hundreds of rescuers, and carried toa near-by cottage, which was temporarily converted into a hospital. Three are not expected to recover. The scene around the improvised hospital is pitiful. The owner of the building is agarer condemned, as it was a Budensiek a air. iAmdng fife viaisoravin the court-room to- day was Mr. Wm. Glass, of London, Unh, Sheriff 01 Middlesex county. A Chicago despatoh says : A burglar entered the residence of Gen. M. High on Monday night, and, seeing his image in a large mirror, supposed it was another man, and so drew his revolver and blazed away at it. Mr. High end his family were at dinner on the floor below, and were startled by the shooting and the noise of breaking glass. Mr. High grabbed a poker and headed a. procession up the stairway, but when the room was reached nothing was found but the broken mirror and an open window. It may be desirable to live to a green old' age. but when you have attained it gleam; keeg away iron; the buco men. Cornelius Flynn, who was with Beggs and O’Keefe, corroborated O‘Keefe’s testi- mony. Several mher witnesses gave un- important testimony and the court adjourned until to-morrow. _ HARDSBIPS OF THE SEA. Germany Must Sleep in Armor. A “Jerry” Building Collapses.

A last (Sunday) night's Athens cable says : The weather on the wedding morn- ing was gloriously fine. ” King’s weather," the people called it. The King of Greece is probably lucky in the matter of auspicious skies for State occasions. All day long there has been a delicious scent of myrtle throughout the streets of the city, where it has been proiusely used in decorations. In fact Athens has been transformed into a city of myrtle. It is a mass of flags and evergreens, with triumphal arches at all the principal street intersections. At an early hour the town was filled with people from the surrounding country, and the national costumes of the peasants added much to the picturesqueness of the scene. At 8 o’clock a salute of five guns was fired, and forthwith bugle calls rang out from all points about the town through the clear morning air as if by magic. The greatest animation was at once apparent in the streets, which. during the next few hours. developed into enthusiasm of the wildest description that Athens has ever witnessed. Along the route to be followed by the bridal procession every inch of vantage ground was taken up. All the stands in the Rue de Btade, Rue d'Eoole, Rue d‘Hermis and Place de la Concorde were filled with people. The streets themselves were crowded with people in holiday attire. all anxious to get a sight of the bride. There was continual cheering. All windows affording a view of the procession were occupied, and thousands of people viewed the parade from the roofs of houses. The streets were lined with soldiers. A London Saturday morning’s cable says : There are to be no fewer than 99 royal per- sonages present at the Royal wedding in Athens to-day, including one Emperor, William of Germany, brother of the bride; two Empresses, Frederica, the bride’s mother, and Augusta Victoria. her sister- in-law ; two Kings, Christian of Denmark, grandfather of the groom, and George of Greece, the groom's father; two Queens, consorts of the aforementioned; two Crown Princes, besides the groom, Albert Edward of Wales, uncle of the bride, and the 02am- witz of Russia, cousin of the groom, and one potential crown prince, Albert Victor of Wales, cousin of the bride.

The bride looked very happy, but appeared to be a trifle nervous. Neverthe- less she bowed her acknowledgments of the applause of the people, who were all much pleased with her girlish sweetness. For weeks there has been the keenest desire to obtain tickets to witness the wedding cere- mony, and those who were lucky enough to get them came early. There was plenty to interest them during the long wait. The first lady to appear in the diplomatic cirle was Mme. Vlakos, in amagnifloent Greek costume of white, red and gold. Next came Mme. Traubenberg in court costume, with a pink train and white satin front, surmounted by a headdress with a pink band, ornamentedwith diamond stars, from which depended a gauze Vail.

The King gave his hand to Empress Fred- erick, and they both retired. The ceremony was of the most impressive character, and lasted an hour and a quarter. It was the usual one prescribed by the ritual of the Greek Church, with one exception. Instead of the usual ceremony with crowns of orange blossoms, at the special request of the Queen of Greece, gold crowns, surmounted by a cross, were used. These were held over the head of the bride three times by Prince Henry of Prussia, Prince Edward and Prince George of Wales, and over the head of the bride- groom by the Czarowitz and Princes George and Nicholas of Greece. This cere- mony was again repeated when the bride and groom had walked round the table three times. The moment the young couple were uniteda magnificent burst of red light poured through the colored windows of the cathedral, suffusing the bride and groom, and producing a marvellous efiect u on the brilliant uniforms and beautiful resses. The ceremony being completed, Princess Sophie kissed three times the King of Greece, the Queen of Greece, Empress Frederick, the Empress of Germany and the Queen of Italy. She then kissed once each the Prince of Wales, the Princess of Wales and the young princesses. The Emperor of Germany kissed his mother heartily three times. .

Bespoke in the Delaware Avenue Baptist Church before an audience that, on account 01: the rain, was not lsrge._ “ No man in the country is more hated and despised by a certain class than I am,” Mr. Cometook said. ” yet I would not change places with any one in the whole world. Seventeen years ago I gave up my business as a merchant, which was large and flourishing, and abandoned my hope of being rich, to give myself to this work of saving the youth and purifying the morale of the people. The conspiracies and plots to take my life, to rob me 0! my honor and good name, and to impeach my veracity, I regard as nothing. Whether they be continued or not they shall not swerve me from my Godvgiven feel}: Mr. Oomstook stated that during his 17 years’ service as an cflioer oi the State and a representative of the Society for the Sup- ression of Vice he had seized and estroyed the plates of 208 immoral books and demolished 5.000 negatives. He in- tended to increase that number before he went home, as he had some work to do in Buffalo and immediate vicinity. He would purify the local atmosphere at some of its death-dealing influences before he re- tured to New York. Mr. Oomstock stated that some of the books seized when he first went into office had been published for 40 or 50 years. Some of them were so vile that he would not show them to the venerable brother who sat there before him were he and the speaker alone together. Mr. Cometock warned the parents that contaminating influences could come to their children right in their own homes through the mails. He advised parents to enter their children’s rooms periodically and search their pockets for the death-dealing secret causes that lead them to min. The speaker asserted that he had traced the ruin of many a bright lad to dime novels and boys' story papers. He wanted these kept out of the hands of the youth. “ They have sealed the ears of many a loving boy and girl against the entrance of the word preached from the sacred desk." Mr. Oomstook did not want the children to see daily papers that published “ sickenin detail of loathsome crimes, scandals an sensations,and he declared against Sunday papers, which, he said, give up almost all their space to matter 0! this kindâ€"Bufi‘alo Courier. “ I have been brought to death’s door by assassins who have tracked me and sought to take my life. My blood has been shed for the cause; for weeks and weeks I lay sick from an injury inflicted by an assassin, who succeeded in severing four arteries in my face. Smallpox scabs have come by letter to my house, infernal machines have been sent to my 013506, and many other ways have been taken to injure me in body and to rob me of my good name, yet I thank God that He oom- missioned me to do this work, and that we hay-e accomplished so much good_ already." The bridal dress was made of white satin. with long trails of orange blossoms. The enormous train of brooaded silk was held by three maids of honor.
