on the great lakes, and the Evans eleva- tors. Mr. Evans is a graduate ot Yale. He is living in Buffalo tais summer His brother, James Cary Evans, represents the Auchor Line in Chicago, aud played here last summer with the Chicago polo team as its captain. Ellicott Evans also played with the team, as he then lived in Chicago, and was associated with the Anchor Line interests there.
Mr. Evans and Miss Hamlin have been constantly in each other’s company this summer wheeling, playing golf and other ep_rts, although Mr. Hamlin obj -cted to young Evans. The young couple went tor a ride on their wheels yesterday, bringing up atthe residence of the Rev. Walter North, whom they asked to marry them.
The clergyman said he wonld not per- form the ceremony unless Mise Hamlin’s parents consented. Evans then went tu the telephone to call up Mr. tamlin, and upon returning said it was allrigat. The minister took Evans’ word fur it, and the two were married and sped away on their wheels. They left for New York on their honeymcon and now the families refuse to discuss the affair.
From Lonisville, Ky., comes enother story of love on wheels.
Charles Gratiot Cabanne, a brother of Dute Cabanne, and a member of the firm of Cabanne & Dovit, bicycle dealers, stole a wife from Bardstown, Ky., laét Satur- day.
He role to the latter place on a tandem with a friend, whocalled onthe yousg lady aud invited her to take a ride. Afwer leaviog the house he changed Cabanne, who ro'e the wheel to. the rail- way -tition and boarded the next train to Louisville. From there they cros-ed to Jeftersonville, and were soon married by Magistrate Hause, and returned to the city to spend the time unti} the dey arture of the train fur St. Lonis, where they were remarried according the rites of the Cath- olie Church.
Tie elop>ment was the culmination of :n
wuen the lady was visiting im St. Louis. The acquaintance has b en kept up by correspondence, as the mother of the young lady objec-ed to an engagement on account <f her age, The young lady’s name was Miss May Elizabeth Martin.
The happy couple are now at home at No. 4,123 Delmar s‘reet, St. L wis, where the bride’s mother followed her after beirg informed of the marrieg>. The only objection on the latter’s part was that eighteen was too early an age for her daughter to marry, -

follow. One of the largest and best ferry-boats obtainable was chartered
for the occasion, which included a moonlight sail as well asadance. The boat was specially decorated. The
men’s cabin was closed and the win- dows were draped with bunting. Every post and pillar on the deck was hidden by palins and foliage, and the women’s cabin was decked with vines and flowers. The boat throughout was illuminated by incandescent lights, and as it steamed out of the slip with gayly dressed women crowding the decks it presented a brilliant appear- ance. ‘The upper cabin was utilized as 2 dining-room, and the dancing was carried on below. While ferry-boats of the kind needed are not common on inland waters, it is almost possible to secure some sort of a steam vessel that will answer the purpose, and now that New York society hasset the example the moonlight sailand dance is likely to become popular in other cities.
British Wheat Culture.
In 1874 there were 3,640,800 acres of land devoted tothe growing of wheat in Great Britain and 188,711 acres in Ire- land. In 1895 only 1,417,641 acres were thus cultivated in Great Britain and 86,529 acres in Treland. Durng the same period the area of permanent pasture increased in Great Britain from 13,178,412 acres in 1874 to 16,610,- 6568 acres in 1895.

**Martha, dost thou love me?” said a young Quaker. ‘Why, Seth, we are commanded to love one another.” ‘Ah, Martha, but dest thou feel what the world calls love?” “I hardly know have tried

sometimes thought that perhaps thou wast getting more than thy share.”
‘Satisfactory Results.’

The recovery from Bright’s disease of Mr. Arthur Coley, of Somerset, through the use,an account of which appeared in the pa, ers, gave a con- siderable impetus to the sale, and the remedy has become indispensible in many Manitoba households, its fame having pen- etrated into the remotest.parts of the prov- ince and North Wert Territories.

Press. The killed and injured were lying on the depot platform as our train came up, and among the latter was a_ profes- sional tramp who had been stealing a ride. The doctor had looked him over. The vagabond, who had not lost con- sciousness for a moment, smiled faintly and asked:—
“Well, pard, what’s the verdict of the jury?"’
‘*You are badly hurt,’* was the reply.
“TI know that. I was right in the squeeze when the two cars cum together.
I’m as flat as a pancake. Will I ever tramp again?’’
*““t'm afraid not.*’
‘“*Ar’ my legs off?’’
‘“‘No; you are fatally injured, how-
ever.’’
‘That means I’m a goner?’’

“Wall, I'd hev liked to got over this and had somethin’ to talk about and over, but I ain’t doin’ no kickin’. My pard was on the carahead. Was he hurt?’’
“*No; here he is.”’
At that moment a ragged unkempt and typical vagabond came forward and bent over the victim and said:—
“Wall, Jim, they say you hev to go.’

“How are you feelin’ over it?’
‘*Sorter. No use to kick, Tom.’’
*That’s right; you never was kicker, nohow. Got any friends?’’
“No
‘Kin T do anythin’ fer ye?’
The dying man gazed at him for a moment in silence, and then whispered :—
‘““Tom, ye ar’ the only pardner I ever had as knowed the Lord’s prayer. Just say it over to me.’’
The old tramp pulled off his cap and knelt down, and as the score of us un- covered and bowed our heads he repeated the prayer word for word, and with such feeling as astonished everybody. When he had finished he rose and said:—
“That's it, Jim, an’ kin I do anythin’ more?’
“Nothing more for him,’’ answered the doctor, as he looked down upon the pale face. ‘‘ Your partner is dead.’’

GAVE HIS HAND FOR WEALTH.
A Son’s Device to Win a Fortune Bequeath- ed by His Father.
When a wealthy merchant died in Car- diff he left a will directing that his two sons should be taken to a point in the English Channel, put in boats and that his fortune should belong to the one whose “‘hund first touches the English soil.’’
When the day of the trial came a large crowd collected to see the race. There was bitter fecling between the brothers. When one saw that the other was about to beat him by a few inches he drew a knife, cut off his hand and threw it to the shore, thus securing the fortune. He afterwards builf a line of merchant ves- sels and adopted a hand as his trade mark, having it printed on the funnel of his boats, where it remains to this day, his heirs continuing the use of the a- 2

supposed that these reptiles would live amicably side by side.
Nevertheless, the horned viper, during the following night, swallowed his com- panion in captivity, and in order to ac- commodate this prey so disproportionate to ‘tself, its body was distended to such s® degree that the scales, instead of touch ing each other laterally, and even over- lapping each other a little, as in its normal condition, were separated, leay- ing between the longtitudinal rows them a space equal to their own breadth. All the same, digestion proceeded regu larly, and the viper did not appear to have suffered in the least. The cise of-a cobra that swallowed a brother cobra, by mistake, at the London zoo, affords another example of this extraordinary capacity for the accommodation of food.

llow to Hide a Dog. I saw a woman stop at the entrance to one of the big railroad stations the other
day, remove her mackintosh and seize a
handful or so of dog which had Leen trotting along beside her.
It was & wise looking dog, with long hair, which ail but hid two cyes that told of rare sagacity.
‘*Don’t you dare move,’’ she said t the woolly thing. ‘‘Do you hear?’’ The
dog heard and seemed tw understand. “If you make any noise you're a dead dog,’’ she continued. The woolly thing, by its eyes, seemed to say that it under- stood.
She hid it under the cape of her mack- intosh, and one could have sworn that she had nothing under the cape but her arm. I supposed that she was going only a little way out of town. To my surprise she bought a sleeper ticket and paid $16 for her regular transportation.
Shere was never a whine or a motion under the cape as she offered her ticket to be punched and passed through to the train.
