| GAME BETTER THAN GOLF,
The Man From Seen’ Lowers His Record For Traia Catching.
His countenance suffused with satis- faction and his walk expressing tri- umph, the man from Jersey made his matutinal descent upon the metropo- lis. Without waiting for questions he began the pwan of his joy.
‘‘Knocked seven-eighths of a second
| off my record this morning,’’ be said. ‘“‘I simply can’t be beat. Nineteen and a quarter minutes from the arms of
Morpheus, through ablutions, vestiture, nutrition, conjugal admonition and a half mile of geography to the contines of a car, and there you are. Giving all proper handicaps, by this performance I win the cup, and I’m going down to the engine bouse tonight to get it. ‘‘Mebbe you thought we didn’t have any sporting blood out in my country? You never heard of a links from me, and you hever saw me going around likea gosh binged umbrella mender with my arnis full of shinny sticks. No, siree!
all hollow in making time for the trains—one that lastsall the year round too. Records? What are the records of putting little pills into little holes to the records pinned up in our little de- pot, records of honest toil that appeal to the instincts of aM industrious men? I tell you that the desiccated individual who thinks he abides in joy when he has quartered over a county in one stroke less than he ever did before is an object of pity to the man who is trying to cut a fraction of a second from the passing from sound sleep to the busy railroad.
‘*He is engaged in a useful occupa- tion. Heis trying to demonstrate the capacities of the wonderful human en- gine and at the same time adding to the well being of the race by lengthening the hours of sleep. Any scientist will tell you that the great fault with man is that he doesn’t sleep enough. You take my advice and quit golf and come live in the country and keep tab on your transits like me, and if that ain’t enough you can go down to the engine house on Sunday afternocn, when there ain’t any trains, and pitch quoits.’’— New York Sun.

SMOCK MARR iIAGES.
Enitances In Maine of a Custom That Pre. 7
vailed In England a Century Ago,
A Bangor lawyer attending court in the ancient town of Wiscasset, Me., went rummaging recently in the colonial court records of the place and in the course of bis readirg ran across the official registration of a ‘‘smock mar- tiage.’’ Not knowing what sort of mar- riage that was he looked further and got considerable light upon a custom that prevailed in England a century or two ago and also to some extent in the American colonies.
Smock marriages were weddings where the bride appeared dressed in a white sheet or chemise. The reason of such a garb was the belief thatifa man married a woman who was in debt he could be held liable for ber indebted- ness if he received her with any of her property, and also that if a woman mar- ried a man who was in debt his credit- ors could not take her property to satis¢ fy their claims if he received nothing from her. In England, says an antiqua- rian, there was at least one case where the bride was clothed puris naturalibus | while the ceremony was being per- formed in the great church at Birming- | bam. The minister at first refused to perform the ceremony, but finding noth- ing in the rubric that would excuse him he married the pair.
To carry out the law fully as the peo- ple understood it the ceremony should | always have been performed as it was in the Birmingham church. But modes- ty forbidding, various expedients were used to accomplish the desired purpose and yet avoid the undesirable features. Sometimes the bride stood in a closet and put her hand through a hole in the door. Sometimes she stood behind a cloth screen and put her hand out at one side, again she wound about her a white sheet furnished for the purpose by the bridegroom, and sometimes she stood in her chemise cr smock. Even- tually, in Essex county at least, all im- modesty was avoided by the bride- groom’s furnishing to the bride all the clothes she wore, retaining title to the same in himself. This he did in the presence of witnesses, that he might prove the fact in case be was sued for any debts she might have contracted. A marriage of this kind occurred at Brad- ford in 1733, and the following is a true copy of the record of the same:
BRADFORD, Dec. ye 24, 17. This may certifie whomsoever it may con-
cerne that James Bailey of Bradford who was |
married to the widow Mary Bacon Nov 22 last past by me ye subscriber then «leclared that he took the said person witho. 1ything of es-
tate and that Lydia the wife « azer Burbank & Mary the wife of Thomas - «ney & Mar- garet the wife of Caleb Burb- “llof Brad- ford were witnesses that the - ‘3s she then
had on were of his providing & L.... wing upon hi
er WILL14M BALcu, Minister of ye Gospel.
I+ is noted by the same writer that in all cases of smock marriages that have come to his kuowledge the brides have been widows.
It is thought that during the reign of George III there were many smock mar- riages in Maine, then a part of the prov- ince of Massachusetts Bay, chiefly in Lincoln and York counties or in the ter- ritory which is now so known. There is nothing to show that the practice out- lived the Revolution. In Maine up to 1852 a busband was liable for debts of his wife contracted before marriage, and no such subterfuge as the smock
marriage could relieve bim.—New York |
