"Only the one at Buckingham palace," replied the architect. "Then build our ballroom a third bigger than that," said the governor. In lordly fashion. Melbourne folka may be proud of their huge ballroom, but It is a coatly luxury to be governor. Infantile curiosity and appetite came near spoiling the matrimonial plana of a Cleveland couple last week, for the baby brother of the bride ate the marriage license. Miss Emma J. Harrison procured a license to marry Jghn M. Wilkinson. As he waa working abe got the license herself. Later she returned very much excited, and told the clerk the biby had eaten the precious paper. A aecond license waa granted. The biggest ballroom in the world la not tt any European court, but at government borne. Melbourne. Al the time It waa de slnel tbe architect consulted the governor V the period aa to its site. "Do you knew Chicago has a novelty in the "straphangers- league," which haa already gained 50.000 members and may become an or ganization of much more than humorotta pretensions. While organised aa a Joke, or rather aa a aatlre, to expresa the dlsguat of that large portion of the public that never finds aeata In atreet cara, and which de mands longer strap to accommodate ahort men and women, it threatens now to be taken by politicians and made to figure in the coming tuunlcipal campaign.

There waa an eleva tor, but she didn't rare Tor it. Softly aa moccasins could carry her ahe Issued forth. When the had gone out a bellboy saw queer marka cn the banisters and door cas ings. Tbe Indian bride had blazed her way with a tomahawk, eo that she could find her way back. The Indian bride was merely living up to her education, for it ia very necessary to know how to blase a trail a Alaaka. There la a atory about Alatka and Its peo ple is which la mentioned a mil who choe a bride from among some of tbe Indian ttlbee up toaard the Chllcoot Pass. He took ber to a large city, Montreal perhaps, and left her In a splendid hotel while he went out to see some one about a dog. She misled him sad!. She eat at the Indus George H. Vanderbilt haa just added to his estate at Aabeville, N. C, a email tract of land for which be paid the owner, a najro named Joshua Moore. $2,250. Tbe land would have bee a dear at $50, but tbe negro refused to aell at a leaa price than the amount he finally received. Moore wife waa the real engineer of the deal with the multi-millionaire. The nine acres which the modern David coveted aere deeded to her twenty years ago by Erwin Hardy., a white man in whose employ she had been for many years. -She had one child a girl before she married Moore, and the land was to go to her cf tldren. This daugh ter has just become ef age and she wsnted the moAsy. Moore would, no doubt, have sold long ago If he could have made title. He says he got only a small portion of tl money, hla wife and ber daughter getting the lion'a ahare. It ia related with pride by the Hays City Republican that at a banquet given bv the Maaonlc bodiea of that town one night re cently, no leaa than aix gentlemen appeared in tbe regular evening coatume. This was the first functioa In Haya City at which the apiketall made ita lppearance. For a number of years there have been men In Haya City who were possessed of tbe gar ments, but they were cloiatered sacredly from the local eye, and kept only for usa when their oaners were laatwardly abroad. But now the ice la broken and no' future function in Hays City will be without the swallowtail. Aa the editor vaunta It: "A final breakaway haa been had from the rude period when the ballroom attire of men waa composed of bfcots, spurs, sombrero and six shooters, and when tbe height of elegant manners waa to Invite your girl after every dancv to the tar to take a drink." And Hays City la not alone among the wi stern towua In coming to the ways of the east. 1 The same phenomenon is noted for Its town by tbe Antboay Republican, aa follows: j "Tbe apiketall coats la thla Iowa already number eight, although eome of the own era lack the courage to wear tbem at home." , PK ATT 1. 12 OK THE YOllGSTEHS.
