A DUSKY DOUBLET. Mimmie, the Ot Maiten, Marrys Clavo, 4 Young Warrior of Her Trik, The Ceremony Takes Place at the Denver Exposition Grounds, Denver Tribune, Aug. 10th. Yesterday evening Minnie, the bello of the Ute camp, was married to Chavo, a prepossessing young buck, to whom she became attached since her connection with the Exposition party. The mar- riage ceremony was performed in the Ute rite, THE BRIDE AND THE GROOM. For several days the managers had been noticing something unusual in the actions of the high contracting parties, but it was not until yesterday, when informed by Chief Char they comprehended the situnt For a week the coquetry of n. the two had been fast and furious. When the sunlight of Minnie's radiantly red countenance first illuminated the dullness that prevailed in around the pavilions the bachelor attendants had some show. But, unfortunately for their rising hopes, the young warrior Chavo in the prido of an untutored ancestry crossed like a vision of glory between “them and the radiant object,of their ardent affection. Of all the gorgeous bicks he was the most gor- goous. With his expressive faco colored and dotted until it resembled the erup- tive culticle of a smallpox patient, his bare arms and legs and brawny chest scolloped and furbelowed with a prodi- gahity of cheap pant and the haute ton cut of his rather abreviated wardrobe he walked right away with the fascinated child of nature, despite her English train- ing in tho government school at Albu- querque. Miunie in a quict way is somewhat of a beauty. When in Chavo Minnio saw her “appreciator” xhe went for him with an alacrity that nearly upset the equilibrium of the Gunnison county thoroughbred. The coving and billing of the two was in- teresting. They shared their popeorn and he divided with her the nickels his skill had won at target practice. The affair wus 8o apparently mutual that Chavo's disconsolate rivals took a back seat and awaited the denoument with mingled chagrin and interest. It came. AFTER THE WOOING, “Minnie and Chav, want to Mally, said Chief Charlio, in introducing thi delicate subject to the secretary; heap big Injun and she heap = squaw.” “*All right,” said Mr. Wilson; “I'll get the preacher and we'll give 'em a send- off.” “Ingun want no preacher; Injun want to mally in Injun like Ute fathers. Mally quick; right away. Come.” And everybody went. Crowded in the tepee wore about twen- ty-five persons The blushing bride, in a brilliant dress cut en train, stood by the side of the young warrior, who had chang- ed his attive from one of warfare to that of mourning. Ranged on each side of the tent were the braves, sixteen innum- ber, in (ull paint and feather, each with o' plug hat, the gift of the exposition man- dgement, Chicf Charlie directed the ceremonier. In a few words he announ- ced in Ute that the father and mother of the bride had selected Chavo for a hus- band and that Chavo wanted Minnie t+ darn his socks, sew on his buttons and do such other duties incumbent upon the squaw of 80 high and _mighty a warrior. Turning tothe brideand groom heasked the utusl questions, They replied in Ute wheroupon the chief stapped aside. THE MARRIAGE CKREMONY, Secretary Wilson, with hat in hand, and leading the blushing maid: od within the circle. As he di chief beckoned to Chavo and his side of the procession moved in this order: The groom, attended by Tho Tribune, who stood as best man, Thomas J. Birchfield, assistant agent at, Ouray, with the bride's mother on his arm, and Herman Leu- ders, special agent of the interior depart- ment, who, ¢lad in a swallow-tail, made himsel vseful as usher. Tho high contracting parties then seat- od themselves in the straw in the middle of the tent, while around them squatted the braves, Mus, So-no-winch, mother of the interesting pappoose, placed around the bride's neck an amulet tied with deer sinew and then the 10Ny was com- plete. At another signal-from tho chief the braves began to chant, rising in the vocal key, louder and louder, until the dirge grow wild aund wierd, broaking forth in & harmony of sounds that defied all musical seoring. From grave to gay the gl'uu’lx‘ had passed with but little in- terim. The assemblage by this time was motamorphosed 8o that tho sceno was wild and boyond description, All at onco the commotion ceased so sudden as to startlo tho guests. Exhausted the braves mnk to’the ground and the warrior and his newly made wife passed out from among tho group, he disappearing first through the lodge entrance and she fol- o s T 01 a et fao picturesque and strange was now over, and the guests fol- lowed Chavo and his bride, glad once more to breathe pure air, VISITING THE PHOTOGRAPHERS, After the marriage the whole band took the next train to the city, where their pictures were taken. Minnie accompa- nied them, but not with her husband She was nothing but a squaw, and realiz- ing her position she strolled about behind the braves as meek as the traditional lamb that followed Mary. While at school at Albuquerque she gave evidence of & naturally quick mind, and had she been 80 inclined could have staid and eventually become a valuable accession to the government corps of teachers, She preferred the wild life of her people, and to this she was wedded, leaving behind heras souvenirs the autographs, which she distributed with such a prodigal hand among her pale-face admirers at the Ex- position, Y Be merciful to dumb animals, says Josh Billings.

An African Dynasty With an Ameri- can Monarch — Example Fol- lowed in Empire. ‘ounding an Chicago Times. According to telegraphic dispatches and other information Mr. Stanley is dis. posed to act on his own account on the bunks of the Congo. The ex-reporter of The New York Herald aspires to found a dynasty. The idea is not quite imprac- ticable, and we feel a certain satigfaction in seeing a former journalist tuke up the scepter. Thrones have been occu- pied by sous of advocates and inn-keep- ers, like Bernadotte and Murat; by former sub-lieutenants like Bonaparte; hyflw“y bourgeois like his brotheis: but 80 far we huve never scen a newspaper rtor, It was reserved for the nine- h century to show the press us be- coming a nursery of kings. From the day on which the Sacred college should have proclaimed popes some Don Mar- gotts, -journalism, which it has been the Wo came to this very Brink Pond | ed the sport room attracts as much attention as any | other feature of the institution, and the yeople that T conduct about the buildings inger Jonger in that apartment thanany- where else,” The room in question is a fino larg one, in the upper part of the main col lego building, and in common with all | others in the structure is paved with marble. It is about forty feet square, and three of its sides are fenced oif’ with | a high iron-work railing, behind which is stored the miscellaneous collection of hou hold goods, oraments, mercantile ac- counts, and other objects that once be longed to the great philanthropist who | founded the college. Here may be seen half a dozen wagon loads of extremely di- lapidated furniture, so worn out and use- lens that the whole lot, were it not forits | historical value, would not bring enough at auction to pay for hauling it away. The chairs and sofas arc almost denuded | |of covering, and the peculiar, narrow, marble topped dining table upon- which Girard used to have his meals served has sutfered greatly from the attacks of relic | hunters, whose vandalism is shown by the many missing bits of inlaid stone that have been carried away. It is for this reason that the iron railing has been ercoted. The most prominent object in the room is the old-fashioned gig in which Girard once rede about the city, it being the self-same vehicle from which he was violently thrown upon one occasion. In a large glass fronted case at the back of the room may seen, shelf upon shelf, the clothing once worn by Girard, all of it in as remarkable a state of disrepair as i8 the furniture outside; for the old gen- tleman was far from being a dude in his time. One coat is pointed out to visitors that did steady duty for upward of fifteen years, a fact that speaks well for Girard's personal economy and disdain for fashion I'he old gentleman’s habits, in this di tion must, however, have been consid- ered a trifle rough by his tailor. On the walls hang a number of pictures and mir- rors, all of a date long since gone by, among the former being the portraits of several Chinese merchants with whom Girard carried on business. There is considerable space taken up with other relics of Girard’s wonderfully successful mercantile caveer, and a huge pile of chests stored in oue corner con- tan the business letters and ship ac- counts, covering & great many years of his business Life. A large collection of account books, ledgers, journals and other mercantile literature is also pre- served, and occupies a prominent posi- tion in the room. Thefe and scores of other interesting objects, such as thefam- | ily crochery, nd bric-a-brac, are scattered about the room. AR | Instantly itel | | | | ed. Mra.

In the meantime Stanley is actively employing the money of geog- raphers to purchase his crown, Neither does that canse us any vexation, for the misadventures of geographical societies do not affeot us beyond measure. If we are to believe telegrams from Amster- dam, Stanloy is signing treaties with the petty kings on both banks of the Coungo. At least ho signs thew; as for the Afri monarchs, as they never learned to write, they make a mark at the bottom ef the hment. We must acknowledge that ley 1. is acting very correctly from a diplomiatic point of view; his treativs arc drawn up in French, which, as is well known, is the diplomatic language, and are countersigned by his licutenant, named Walk, who probably exercises the functions of keeper of the seals on the banks of the Congo. One of these treaties, that passed with King Jongo de Selo, recognizes the sovereignty of the Comite d'Ktules du Haut Congo; that is to say, with Stanley. After that promising commences the treaty stipulates a series of privileges to M. Stanley and the committee. (1) The right to trade and reside in tie country, (2) Obligation to furnish laborers, etc In return for which Mr. Stanley and the committes engage to pay to Jongo and his descendants an annual pension of two A similar treaty was picces of cloth. passed with the king, or a king, of Many.- anga, Oue of Mr. Stanley’s aida.d- camp was thus able to say, with a little “Wo are now adaptation of the facts: masters of all the country between Mauy- angs and Stapley pool.” Th the ones alluded to in dispatch to Lis- bon, which states that they have caused some surprise, as Stanloy reprsunts n constituted government. Stanley doed, only the representative of an int; national geographical association, but it was probubly for that reason, and to meet rejoctions, that he hastened to form a government of his own, As chief of his own government ho can make annex- ations, and lateron he will get his gov- arnment and his aun xatisns recognized It is said, besides, that tho new king has no idea of making his subjects happy in the usual munuer—that is to say, by granting them constitutional lib- | erties, As a former journalist, he knows what these ave worth, and fecls,no doubt, o certain conteinpt for the liberties of the people he defended when he was o pare of the people himself. A lotter we have before us says, in fact: **Stanley is of a passionate and violent disposition, accus- tomed to command despotically,and treats the natives of the upper Congo as wild beasts, His Zanzibarians, besides, are armed with breech-loaders, which have a most persuasive power, aud he exerciscs the right he claims with most revolting brutality, *Why, an old negro chief was asked, ‘did you sell your territory to Stanley?! He gave you scarcely anything AR T T ® were The following paragraphs about Sena- tor Sherman and Justice Stanley M thews, are from the lecture of ex-Ser- gean arms French, ““Ten Years About the Senate:"” Wiien Sherman, at this period, on his second term in the senate, but still a young man, of the old Shermun blood, tall, fair-complexioned, plain, hon- est man, not an orator, but satrong and fluent in debate; patient of details, labo- rious in investigation, persistent in pur- pose, conciliatory in temper, und alwuys keeping himself well in hand; he speaks rapidly but smoothly, making 1o ofturt at display, aiming only to produce convic- tion by cleur statement of facts and argu- ment, He is eninently a practical man, w senator who gives close attention to the business interests of the country;straight- forward in lus ways aud full of political sagacity. Stauley Matthews was in the prine of his years, and a fine specimen of physical and mental health, of sound education, well read in-both literature and law, es. pecially conversant with both English and American political history, and down to the war most of the years of his manhood were spent with distinguished konor in the ofticial discharge of political and ju- dicial duties, A gallant oflicer in the war, in all his public life he had shown rare independence, and a sincere devotion t his own convistions of right.

The next day Behling robbea his neighbor of a tom cat, which he care fully stowsd away in a bag and took t the big bridge. The cat festoned t the handle of o strong umbrella and was sent on a trip from the top of the bridge The weight of the animal acted as a bal ance and it and the umbrells went down slowly and landed without injury.
