MARRIAGE IN THE EARLY DAYS.
A Raw Justice Performs the Ceremony In His Own Way.
[Capt. Jack Crawford in X.Y. World.]
Back in the early days, when the ship of civilization was endeavoring to push its prow up the valley of the Platte and brawny workmen were spiking down the rails of the Union Pacific railroad, the proceedings in some of the courts of justice were peculiar. Lawyers were about as scarce as they are in the promised land, and justice, not being provided with the traditional scales, performed some remarkable guesswork. At that time I was in the Indian service and for a time was stationed at Lone Tree, in the beautiful valley of the Platte. The town consisted of a half dozen hastily constructed houses, the majority built of sods. There were a few settlers near the town—hardy pioneers who had taken up government land and who lived in constant danger of attack from Satan's earthly corps, the Sioux.
One of the eccentric characters of the town was Jimmy Crane, a time-beaten frontiersman, uneducated, unpolished and, as a traveling missionary once said, ungodly. His life had been spent west of the autumn waters of the Missouri, and he knew as little of the ways of civilization as an Apache Indian knows of the modern plan of salvation. He was a dead shot with the rifle, an ardent lover of whisky and an expert at draw poker, but aside from these he had no religious accomplishments worth speaking of.
Bill Bennett, the justice of the peace in and for that precinct, had a misunderstanding one night with Jerry Manson over the very important point of who played low in a game of seven-up, and after the funeral it became necessary to elect a man to succeed him. With that spirit of recklessness which characterizes the frontiersman and as a rich joke the boys nominated Jimmy, and to carry out the joke, elected him. The high honor so unexpectedly thrust upon the old man broke him all up, but he at once rose to the dignity of the position and began to comb his hair daily. His knowledge of law and of the duties of his position was limited—in fact, he didn't know the difference between a writ of replevin and an act of congress, and couldn't distinguish a peace warrant from the ten commandments, but he
BILL NYE'S HABITS OF LIFE.
Given to Those Who Wish to Adopt a Literary Career.
The editor of an eastern health magazine having asked for information relative to the habits, hours of work and style and frequency of feed adopted by literary men, and several parties having responded who were no more essentially saturated with literature than I am, I now take my pen in hand to reveal the true inwardness of my literary life, so that boys who may yearn to follow in my footsteps and wear a laurel wreath the year round in place of a hat may know what the personal habits of a literary party are.
I rise from bed the first thing in the morning, leaving my couch not because I am disatisfied with it, but because I cannot carry it with me during the day.
I then seat myself on the edge of the bed and devote a few moments to thought. Literary men who have never set aside a few moments on rising to thought will do well to try it.
I then insert myself into a pair of middle-aged pantaloons. It is neeless to say that girls who may have a literary tendency will find little to interest them here.
Other clothing is added to the above from time to time. I then bathe myself. Still, this is not absolutely essential to a literary life. Others who do not do so have been equally successful.
Some literary people bathe before dressing.
I then go down stairs and out to the barn, where I feed the horse. Some literary men feel above taking care of a horse, because there is really nothing in common between the care of the horse and literature, but simplicity is my watchword. T. Jefferson would have to rise early in the day to eclipse me in simplicity. I wish I had as many dollars as I have got simplicity.
THE WEDDING.
A few days after his installation into office a young couple appeared before him to be married. Jimmy was in a quandary. He had never seen the marriage ceremony performed, but determined to worry through the embarrassing affair as he best could. Bidding the couple to stand before him, he said:
"Dearly beloved fellow citizens, these young folks now appear before you to indulge in the holiness o' matemony, accord'd in 'Scriptar' an 'the laws o' this court. If any of you knows any cane why they shouldn't make the play, you want to squail right at this stage o' the game, or corral your jaws on the subject forevermore."
No objection was heard, and the justice continued:
"Hol' up yer right han's."
The couple blushingly obeyed.
"Do you an' each of you solemnly sw'ar that you will marry each other in the presence o' this court; that you will do the squar' thing by each other; that you will give everybody else the go-by, an' cling to each other through life till death calls upon you to cash in your earthly checks, an' that you will be to each other husband'an' wife, accordin' to the law an' the prophets an' the rules an' regulations o' this honorable court, in such cases made an' pervided, so help ye God!"
The couple so swore.
Jimmy was sweating profusely over the exertion, and after scratching his head to collect his thoughts, continued:
"Then I, James Crane, justice of the peace, announce you as husband'an' wife now an' furvermore world without end. Amen; an' if the style don't suit you, you have the legal right to appeal to the supreme court at Omaha any time within sixty days. Now light out, an' me an' the boys 'll go an' drink yer health."
"Simplicity is my watchword."
I then go in to breakfast. This meal consists almost wholly of food. I am passionately fond of food, and I may truly say, with my hand on my heart, that I owe much of my great success in life to this inward craving, this constant yearning for something better.
During this meal I frequently converse with my family. I do not feel above my family, at least if I do Is rive to conceal it as much as possible. Buckwheat pancakes in a heated state with maple syrupy on the upper side, are extremely conductive to literature. Nothing joins the mental faculties around with greater rapidity than buckwheat pancakes.
After breakfast the time is put in to good advantage looking forward to the time when dinner will be ready. From 8 to 10 a.m., however, I frequently retire to my private literary hotel in the bay mow and write 1,200 words in my forthcoming book, the price of which will be $2.50 in cloth and $4 with Russia back.
After that I dig some worms, with a view to engling. I then angle. After this I return home, waiting until dusk, however, I do not like to attract attention. Nothing is more dast ast-fut to a truly good man of wonderful literary acquirements, and yet with a singular modesty, than the coarse and rude scutiny of the vulgar herd. In winter I do not angle. I sometimes spend an evening at home, in order to excite remark and draw attention to my wonderful eccentricity.
I do not use acohol in any form, if I know it, though sometimes I am barely deceived by those who know of my peculiar prejudice. Alcohol should be avoided entirely by literary workers, especially young women. There can be no doubt pledged right to the tender hearted than a young man of marked ability writing an obituary poem under the influence of liquor.
I knew a young man who was a good writer. His penmanship was very good indeed. He once wrote an article for the press while under the influence of liquor. He sent it to the editor, who returned it at once with a cold and cruel letter, every line of which was a stab. The letter came at a time when he was full of remorse. He set up a cent to see whether he should blow out his brains or go into the ready-made clothing business. The coin decided that he should die by his own hand, but his headached so that he didn't feel like shooting into it. So he went into the ready-made clothing business, and now he pays taxes on $75,000, so he is probably worth feel above taking care of a horse, because there is really nothing in common between the care of the horse and literature, but simplicity is my watchword. T. Jefferson would have to rise early in the day to eclipse me in simplicity. I wish I had as many dollars as I have got simplicity.

"My dear friend," said a long-haired countryman to the biographical expounder of a dime museum, "is that unfortunate being really a Cannibal" and he indicated a south sea Islander from Cork who was sitting on a divan.
"Yes, sir, that great living curiosity was captured while in the act of roasting a Presbyterian missionary over a slow fire."

"Convert him?" said the biographer, with disgust. "Do you spose the great American public would pay ten cents to see a Christian!"

[French Paper.]
The French vagabond has a fixed idea that the soft side of a judge is a joke. That is the reason that such critical responses are given to his questions. The other day the judge asked a man who was on trial if he had been condemned before. The reply was: "Not that I recollect. Certainly not during these last five years."
"Why not for five years?" asked the judge, puzzled.
"Because I have been in prison all that time."
Anecdotes of Great Men.
Congressman "Tim' Campbell was asked how he came to leave the Arlington hotel to board upon K street. The fact is, he answered, "there is too much excitement at the hotel for a quiet feller; so I have me quarters at a private house, where I am the star boarder and sit next the landlady."—Boston Record.
Senator Evarts' library in his house in New York is full of costly books, engravings, pictures and works of art. He had a visit there some time ago from one of his law clients, who had always supposed the senator not to be any too luxuriously supplied with this world's goods. He looked the room over with a critical eye and remarked that he did not see how the senator could afford so many fine and costly things. The senator mentioned the remark to a lawyer friend a day or two afterward, with the dry comment, "He will know when I send him my bill."—Daily Graphic.
Hon John J. ONeill, chairman of the labor committee, has a Missouri constituency that is hungry for office, and he finds it hard to satisfy their wants. Recently he made special efforts to obtain a department position for one McGrath, an aged Irish-American citizen, and with success. A few days ago McGrath was notified of his congressman's success and went up to the department. "I am the gentleman that Mr. ONeill got a place for," said the Irishman. "Oh, yes," answered the chief, "here your appointment." "And now that I have got the appointment," said the incumbent, fingering the paper with some pride, "I thank God I don't nada it. I only wanted to see if Johnny ONeill had any inflorescence." And he walked out with his head up and a step that betokened his ancient lineage. Congressman ONeill is now looking for some needy constituent to fill the vacancy.—New York World.
I knew a young man who was a good writer. His penmanship was very good indeed. He once wrote an article for the press while under the influence of liquor. He sent it to the editor, who returned it at once with a cold and cruel letter, every line of which was a stab. The letter came at a time when he was full of remorse. He to sed up a cent to see whether he should blow out his brains or go into the ready-made clothing business. The coin decided that he should die by his own hand, but his head acched so that he didn't feel like shooting into it. So he went into the ready-made clothing business, and now he pays taxes on $75,000, so he is probably worth $150,000. This, of course, salves over his wounded heart, but he often says to me that he might have been in the literary business today if he had let liquor alone.—Bill Nye in Boston Globe.

THE LIME KILN CLUB.
Portraits of a Visiting Delegation and Brother Whale-bone Howker.
[Detroit Free Press.]
During the past week a distinguished delegation from Marietta, O., consisting of the Hon. Coley Strawder, Hon. Cush Henderson and Deacon Fletcher, have been visiting the Lime Kiln club. The object was to secure "pointers" for the benefit of the colored society in Marietta, known as "The So emn Band of Gudeon." The delegation had never tackled a town of over 4,000 inhabitants before, and were rather "off color" in Detroit.
Anecdotes of William L. Marcy and Jeremiah Mason.
Who has not heard of William L. Marcy's charge against the state "For mending my panta oons, fifty cents?" In 1830 he was sent to western New York, while judge of the supreme court, under a special law, to try the anti-Masonic cause, the act providing for the payment of his traveling expenses. When auditing accounts as comptroller he always demanded itemized bills, and as special judge he adhered to this proper rule, and therefore put the fifty cents in with the other items. The grand old governor always enjoyed this fifty-cent episode in his political career. So he did the prank of the stage driver, in whose coach he was riding in western New York in the spring after he was chosen governor. The road was horribly muddy and rough. As they were wallowing through a bad slough the driver shouted, "Now, ladies and gentlemen, hold on tight, for this is the very hoe where Governor Marcy tore his breaches." The governor paid for the dinners at the next tavern.
JEREMIAH MASON'S ADVICE TO HIS CLIENT.
While I dwelt in Boston Jeremiah Mason was one of its greatest lawyers. For half a century he was a commanding figure at the New England bar. After he had become distinguished in New Hampshire he went into a rural county to try a civil suit. A pompous little judge was on the bench. He assigned Mason to defend a negro on an indictment for petty larceny. With surprise, tinged with indignation, Mason declined the task. "Sir, you must obey the order of the court," said the little judge. "All you need do is to take your client into the adjourning room, and give him the best advice you can." This struck Mason in a funny light, and he arose, jeckoned to the negro, and stalked into an empty room with his "client" at his heels. "Are you guilty?" asked Mason. "Yes, sir," responded the n-gro. "Can they prove it?" "Yes, sir; all the witnesses are here!" Mason put his head out of the open window and said: "It is about fifteen feet to the ground. Do you see those wooof! The negro leaped, and Mason returned into the court. By and by the case was called, but the negro did not respond. "Where is your client?" asked the little judge. "I do not know," replied Mason. "Your honor directed me to give him the best advice I could and the last I served."

THE VISITING DELEGATION.
The Hon. Strawder, for instance, insisted on walking in the middle of the road and in using lard and lampblack on his boots. The Hon. Honders lost his wallet, containing $10, while buying pennuts on the market, and had to raise his fare home by spouting his silver watch. Deacon Fletcher mailed two letters in fire alarm boxes, followed a brass band a mile and a half in the mud, and was foolish enough to mix up in a dog fight, and get knocked down by the man who owned the se and best canine.
The delegates went away happy, however, and chock full of information for the benefit of their band. They were granted a charter to work to the thirty-second degree, and start out with sixty-seven members, every one of whom has a bald spot on top of his head, and knows the difference between a spring chicken and a mother hen.
Pickles Smith offered a resolution to the effect that a committee be appointed to invest gate and pronounce on the skull of Demosthenes, now hanging on a nail in the muum, and labeled: "After Using." He had heard serious doubts expressed as to whether the skull was genuine, or one made to order in New York, and would like the fact settled.
Brudder Smith, so right!" exclaimed the president as he brought his gavel down with a bang. "When we label and hang up a skull in dismuseum we have gone too far to back water. Dat am not only supposed to be de skull of Demosthenes, but it is spected dat every individual meber of dis club am read; to take off his coat to support de supposition! When you start out to make a museum de first great step am doubt to doubt your own labels."
The case of Whalebone Howker was then called up by Sir Isaac Walpole. Several weeks since Brother Howker signed a paper recommending a certain b and of stove blacking, and sold the maker the right to use his picture on the package. This is in violation of by-law No. 17, and Howker was suspended for six months and final $200. Sir Isaac desired to appeal in his half. The suspended brother lived next door to him, and the way he took on o'nights kept his neighbors awake. He had lost flesh at the rate of a pound a day, and his family were greatly concerned for his health. The fine hung over him like a ten-bon grindstone, and his suspension seemed more than he could bear.
Whar am Brudder Howker jist now I asked the president.
"In de auity-room sah."
"You kin bring him in."
Brother Howker was brought in. He had tightened up his belt to the last notch, so as to appear fearfully emaciated, and walked with a step which seemed to prove that this valah would had no further charms for him. He also managed to get off three or four groans which seemed to come from down among the shop pegs.
Brudder Howker," said the president,"friends have interceded in your behalf, and I hev decided to remit your fine and reinstate you as an active member of dis club. Doan let dis do is to take your client into the adjoin ing room, and give him the best advice you can." This struck Mason in a funny light, and he arrose, leckoned to the negro, and stalked into an empty room with his "client" at his heels. "Are you guilty?" asked Mason. "Yes, sir," responded the negro. "Can they prove it?" Yes, sir; all the witnesses are here." Mason put his head out of the open window and said: "It is about fifteen feet to the ground. Do you see those wools!" The negro leaped, and Mason returned into the court. By and by the case was called, but the negro did not respond. "Where is your client?" asked the little judge. "I do not know," replied Mason. "Your honor directed me to give him the best advice I could, and the last I saw of him he was running for those wools over there." Everybody laughed except the little judge, and the curtain fell on the scene.—From H. B. Stanton's 'Random Recollections."
"Sunset" Cox and the Sultan.
Mr. Fearn, of New Orleans, our new minister to Greece, Roumania and Servia, tells a good story on Mr. Cox. He went to his post at Athens via Constantinople. The sultan cordially acceded to Mr. Cox's request to give Mr. Fearn an audience at the Yildez palace on Friday, after Salilkam. There was much worry about these infant nations and their relations to Turkey, and Mr. Cox desired to have our minister to these states and the porte on good terms. After the usual formalities were over the sultan remarked to Mr. Fearn:
"It seems to me, Mr. Minister, it must give you great trouble, labor and travel to represent your country at three nations so far apart from each other."
"Allow me," said Mr. Cox, "to reply for my friend. Your majesty will understand that Mr. Fearn has not as much to occupy him with his three kings and two queens as I have with one king and—and"
Thereupon Mr. Cox gave a sudden halt. Visions of innumerable queens in the next apartment floated before him. The sultan helped Mr. Cox out of his likeness by a cordial smile, which Mr. Fearn says colored his cheeks with modesty and brightened his eye with humor.
Another story on his colleague told by Mr. Fearn is given below:
In making his calls of courtesy upon the minister of war, All Sibling Pasha, Mr. Cox found the minister over need and care in dispatches. These Ottoman ministers, however, are always polite. They offer coffee and cigarettes invariably to our foreign ministers. After partaking of these Mr. Cox presented his felicitations upon the occasion of the new minister. After this was translated into Turkish by the dragoman and ano her cigarette and coffee, Mr. Cox said: "When I ran for office in a western agricultural state I never talked to a man at a threshing machine, especially if I wanted his vote." As the minister had just purchased a few American machines and tested them upon his farms in Asia Minor he understood. The irrespressible gravity of the Turk gave way, and he swallowed the chestnut, worm, shell and all—Now York World.

Miss Bayard's Clever Hetort.
Oscar Wilde knew the late Miss Bayard very well. He was a great admirer of her wit and power, of repartee, and lost no opportunity to meet her during his stay in Washington. One fine day the capital's society people found themselves interested in two events which were to take place in the evening. One was a lecture by the champion of the sunflower and the other was a brilliant reception. Oscar Wilde met Miss Bayard during the afternoon of that eventful day, and she asked him:
"Mr. Wilde, will you go to the reception to-night?"
"Well," he replied, "if I am not too much fatigued after my lecture."
A short pause followed, and then he said:
"Miss Bayard, of course you will be at the reception!"
"Well," came the answer, "if I am not too much fatigued after your lecture!"—Philadelphia Press.
