Some interesting testimony was given yester- ay in the course of the trial of the suit of Mary Maud Watson against Messrs.

Aecording to him, he and John Anderson bad frequent private inter- Mlews a great many years ago.

Civie and Curious Superstitions. Romance ts rare in Abyssinia, When a girl has reached the discreet age of eight or nine she ts considered to be in the matrimonial market. If she owns a few cattle or some other desirable property, a boy with haif her wealth generally proposes to her father for her, and a bargain is driven over her quite as if she had no more sentiment in her than a cow, which doubtless is often the case. The engage- ment lasts usually three or four months. Though the groom often sees his prospective father-in-law, he never lays eyes upon the bride unless he can bribe some female friend to allow him a stolen glance. The bride-to-be may previously have romped with her Intended for years, but she would run screaming away if he were now to appear before her. In Some parts of the country the suj stition rite that any woman leaving father’s house between betrothal and marriage will be bitten by asnake. As the wedding day draws near, the girl is washed, an event so rare as to call for special note, ina pond where a certain saint’s day is celebrated for being the epoch of the sole annual ablution of most of the inhabitants, and a dass or bower of green branches, over a frame of stakes is erected. In this a great feast Is given on the day before the marriage. AN the hungry idlers round about strive by hook or crook toget in, and, squatting down on theground, they gorge them: selves with the quivering raw meat of the cow that has just been killed and with other Abys- sinian delicacies. ‘The distinguished guests bless the bride, putting their hands upon her head and getting them well greased for their Pains. Meanwhile a similar feast is given in the groom’s abode, and next morning he starts out with his friends, and from six to twelve ariecs or bridesmen. They rig themselves up inall the plumage they can possibly borrow, and on approaching the bride's house, fire off their guns and have a sort of sham fight with a view, perhaps, to allay the groom’s nervousness. When the happy man has taken the seat of honor in the bridal bower his bride Is brought in, wrapped up in a cloth almost likea mummy, and placed upon a stool, ‘Then the “groom 1s asked whether he wishes to marry the woman before bim; they crook their fingers together under the Cloth, or, perhaps, kiss one another, and after any priest or elder’ present has given some sage advice, the marriage settlement of what each is to bring is finally entered upon, the last, but not the least important, part of thé ceremony.

A three-year- old child of Joseph Beible was lost and could ot be found, although 200 neighbors jomed in esearch. ‘As alast resort the parents sought aid of Minneapolis clairvoyants, and were onmed that an aged couple knew of its where outs, The parents and friends finally de- ided that the aged couple were Mr. and Mrs. Hokanson, Norwegians, who lived in Sever- | unee, Sibley county. Une night Hokanson was eailed to the door by a man who wished to know the road to Stewart. As Hokanson step- ped out he was seized by six masked men sad placed in « wagon, ‘Hokanson was siso thrown into the wagen, although she was only clad in her nightciothes.

IN LOVE WITH A BELGIAN COUNT WHOM SHE FORSAKES FOR A BRITISH ARMY CAPTAIN TO WHOM SHE I$ MARRIED—HER RELATIONS WITH THE FAMOUS MAESTRO. ‘From the New York World. A dispatch from London was lately printed in the World stating that Mrs, Georgina Wel- don had been released from her imprison- ment on a charge of slander. This remarkable woman's maiden name was Trehern, and she belongs toa respectable Welsh family. In her sixteenth year she went to Brussels with her parents, where she remained several years. Her father was of a morose temperament and her mother was rather eccentric. When the for- mer was at home no amusements were allowed in the house, and when he was absent the mother made up for the past by a continued round of dinner and dancing parties. Miss Georgina wasa verybeautiful girl and had many ‘suitors, the favored one of whom was a Bel- gian nobleman, As this gentleman was a Cal olic Mr. Trehern sternly forvade the unioh. Shortly afterwards the family returned to Lon- don und Georgina found so many new beaus that the Belgian count was soon forgotten, A captain In the army named Weldon was the favored one this time, and when the father again interposed his veto on account of the suitor’s poverty the lovers ranaway and were married. Her father swore he would cut her oif with the traditional shilling, and as he re- fused to be reconciled to the marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Weldon went to Italy, where the latter studied for the stage. She made her debut as au operasinger in Milan, Her father died, meantime, leaving everything to his son, who pardoned ‘his sister and gave her a regular allowance. Then Mr. and Mrs. Weldon re- turned to London and took up their residence in Tavistoek house, the mansion that was for miany years the home of Charles Dickens. Mrs." Weldon abandoned the operatic stage, but continued to sing at concerts, Ata certain. Teception she sang so beautifully that she cay tured the famous French composer, ( then in exile in London because of the e in Paris. He fell so desperately in love with her that soon he followed her about wherever she went, and finally lived at her house entirely. She even “exhibited” Lim at Brussels, whet she bired a hail and announced in big posters that she would sing with the accompaniment Of the great maestro, and that they would play ad Be on the piano, which the author of Faust had composed expressly for the occa- sion. The count, her formar suitor, was still in town, and he {nduced his motier to give a grand Was stormy and rainy, but so anxlous was every one to see the maestro and Mrs. Weldon that the countess’ salons were crowded wit the most. aristocratic families of the Belgian eapi- tal. All the ladies were in full dress, but Mrs. Weldon was in walking costume,’and the drenched appearance of the maestro and her- self showed that they had come on foot. Searcely had she bowed to the hostess, When she said: “I have got my feet wet, Will you order some one to bring me a basin of hot water?” She then sat down and began to puil off hershoes and stockings. The count— her former rejected lover—brougit the basin and towels, and after she had taken her foot bath Gounod got down on his knees and wiped her feet dry for her. The company was stupe- tied; everybody looked at everybody cise, but no One spoke. The lady rose and sang an air from the cantata of “Gallia,” whieh Gounod had just completed and dedicated to her, and ry one applauded. ‘The Hason betiveen unod and Mrs, Weldon lasted a long time, but the maestro, finally growing tired of it, of remembering that he had a wite and family’ in, Paris, took his departure trom Tavistock House, He had left some valuable manuscripts behind him, including “Polyeucte” and “Georges Dan- din,” which Mrs. Weldon retused to give up. sounod then began a lawsuit, tnd a great scans dal tollowed, which resulted in Capt.

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat. During the lust twenty years there has sprung up in American society a class with all the vices and shortcomings of un aristocracy, but with- out an aristoeracy’s redeeming virtues.

This is particularly noticeable in the tenement house districts, where arow of gaunt. and bare-looking windows 1s sometimes enliv. ened by acasement about which some climb- ing plant Is guided,” said m dealer in stained glass yesterday. “On the east and west sides ‘one occasionally sees windows that have plain muslin curtains prettily looped back with rib- bons, and once in awhile rough lace curtains are visible. This sort of decoration is not con- fined to the tenement wards by any means? however, Passing over the other extreme— that is, the mak rich people who have their windows on Fifth avenue decorated by highly- finished boxes of plants, take the streets on either side of Fifth avenue and within a block or two of that thoroughfare. A grent. many of the houses so located are devoted to boarders, nnd it is the boarder who usually decorates his room. Nearly opposite me on Thirty-cighth Ktreet there is a young couple—they have been married about two years, 1 believe—who have imude thelr windows us attractive as any [ have seen. The wife has a natural liking for flowers, and she knows how to cultivate them.

A few years ago, when a man built a house on Fifth or Madison ‘avenue, he was content to have the regulation vestibule doorway of hard wood polished and decorated with monidings. Nothing of that sort will do nowadays. As much money is now often spent on doorways os was formerly spent on the win- dows of a whole house, and there is apparently Do limit to the expense towhich house building will go in the matter of doorway decorations, ‘The whole movement is the result of an effo toxet rid of the tiresome similarity and evere lasting sameness of the houses of New York.” —————“see. ‘The Shrinkage of Alpine Glaciers. From the London Times Prof. Albert Heim, writing in the Alpenzeitung, says that judging trom phenomena observed during the last few years in tne snow regions of | the Alps of Switzerland, a steady increase in the snow and a subsequent early advance of the glaciers had been fully expected. ‘This had actually taken place In the Western Alps, but the indications of the summer just passed are of the same nature as they were in 15a, the Masses of show having decreased considerably everywhere, In the St. Gothurd range, on the Todi, and the surrounding mountain chains Prof. Heim found during th the Snow had retreated, ever 1884. This has had unpleasant consequences. Pasttires which formerly were moistened by the water issuing from small snow fields during the summer months have been dried up. Springs formerly fed by snow water have disappeared. The areas bared of snow and gl: are now stony deserts, which will be changed to pasture land only aiter the lapse of many years. Di ressions in the snow, fornerly es have been turned into dange In many places where form sily crossed, glacier passe the snow fleid rly. closely ‘Joined the rocks there are now danger- ous chasins, and both glaciers and snow beds, having become thinner. are more intersected than ever. Looking down from the summitot the Todi on August 16, Dr. Heim was great! struck by the dirty gray color of the surround- ing snow fields, in contrast to their dazzling whiteness of former years. This, Di says, is the result of the continual m the Snow and the concentration of partic dust on the suriace of the melted layers, tensive slopes which formerly remained co: stantly covered with snow are now completely free from it. Ttis therefore considered probable that the growth of the glaciers of the Swiss Alps will take a long time, for tt must first be pre- ceded by an accumulation of snow in the snowy regions. see A Romantic Marringe. IF WAS A RUNAWAY MATCH, BUT THE on FOLKS FORGAVE THEM AND ALL ARE IAPPY. A telegram from Scranton, Pa,, October 1 says: Miss Minnie Lampman, the handsome As-year-old daughter of Elkanah Lampman, a Prosperous farmer of Clifford township, 1ast spring fell in love with Horace Gilbert, muscular mill hand, and he asked her tomarry him. Her rents insisted that she should not marry him. A few days ago Minnie went to Benton to visit some acquaintances. She told her friends that a young man would ‘come after her at the end ofher visit, ‘The young man was Gilbert. Minnie bade ber friends good-by, asked them to come and see her, and went array with her lover. Instead or going toward Minnie's home Gilbert drove to Harford, where he asked a clergyman to marry them," He was unable to produce a certificate trom the clerk of the court Which the new law in this state requires: and the minister refused to marry them, “What are we golng to do now?” asked the Man, as they drove away. Til tell You what we'll do,” sald the girl, “It chi an awful way from here to the New York state line, and I told ma I wouldn't be home until to-morrow, Say we go across the line and get married.” Gilbert was pleased with the suggestion, and exening they gat a Broome county, rgyman to marry them. ‘The next da: they drove back home. “On the following morn ing Minute boldly told her parents all about the romantic marriage, and assured them. she would ve happy if they would forsive her. The gld folks talked the matter over in private. Then the groom was sent for, and that night there was a big Jollification in the farm house. ee A Flock of Grouse Storming a Town. A telegram from Middletown, N. Y., October 45th, says: “Itis not an uncommon ‘thing, in the localities where the birds abound, to see at this season of the year grouse fly into the vil- lage apparently bewildered, and they ure fre- quently killed by striking against tho sides of buildings, fences or other objects, It Is seldom that moré than one bird will be seen flyinz Ina town at once, so the appearance of a flock. of titty or more’grouse in the villaxe of Wurtsboro, Sullivan county, on Tuesday, created ‘no little excitement in the place. ‘The birds came from @ piece of woods on one side of the town, and scattered about the strects in all directions Some alighted in the Delaware and Hudson Canal; “others dashed themselves to death against buildings; some were killed by wire clothes lines; several were Impaled on baried wire fences on the outskirt= of the town, ‘Twenty-five dead and wounded birds wore picked up in the village, while others were shot as they ilew to and fro through the streets, Sot more than halfa dozen or 0 recovered them selves suflictently to get safely ont ot danger. —— Fee) ON ot Actresses’ Hands, Mme.
