'Life was so humdrum 'ncatb vlllafjo trees ,
And a lassie was coy and hard to please ,
Ho he took the gold fever and went o'er the

Faraway then be sailed , to a lane that seemed
fair ,
And the whole of his fortune he bore with
him there ,
A pair of strong arms and a stress ot brown
hair.
Toll was all vanity , life hard and stern ,
And ho thought of the farm , and the silvery
burn ,
And the lassie he loved , and no longed to re
turn.

A fond mother's heart la slnjrlnjc away.
Aud a dear little lassie no longer says "Nay. "
Wedded at the Fair.
Chicago Herald : The third day of the
annual fair and exposition of the Wiscon
sin Industrial association at Racine at
tracted tbo largest attendance scon at
the fairgrounds this year. The sensa' '
tlonal feature of the day was the mar
riage of Jabez Boresford and Mary
Augusta \Veob , who wcro wedded at the
fair grounds. The association offered a
f GO net of furniture to any couple con
Renting to be married at the fair , and
Iteresford and his bothrothod realized
their opportunity to achieve fame and n
furniture sot , at the same time avoiding
the customary fee to the parson. The
marrlago took place fn front of the
grand stand at 11 o'clock in the morn
ing. A platform was erected , decorated
with evergreens and surmounted by a
jrilded yoke , from which depended two
jioosos of evergreens. The improvised
sanctuary looked like a fancy gallows.
Croat crowds had gathered around tiio
( rrand stand in anticipation of the ovont.
Shortly before 11 a brass band began
to play dolorous music of a funeral-march
style , and word was passed that the
couple was en route. The crowd in
creased till nearly everybody on the
grounds was in the viciuioy of the grand
stand , trying to get a view of the napp
pair. The band relented and changoi
the tune to a lively air as Jabez and
Augusta drove up in an open carriage.
They were greeted with cheers , and with
great self-possession passed in front of
the grand stand to the platform , Jabez
helped his bride up the stops , and both
struck attitudes under the yoKe. Miss
Webb is a nice-looking young woman ,
about twenty years old. She is a blonde
and has a pleasant face and a neat fig
tiro. She was quite prettily dressed in
purple velvet and white silk , surmounted
by a heliotrope bonnet. She comes from
Antloch , 111. Boresford is a farmer o
Hickory , Lake county , III. Ho has r
good-humored face , and is prepossessing
In appearance. His costume consisted
mainly of white kid gloves. The cere
rnony was performed by Justice Hoyers
of Racine , who has only ono arm , but ho
tied the knot as well and quickly as if ho
had half a dozen. Jabez punctured th
liual sentence with a kiss on his bride'
cheek a kiss that could bo heard nl
over the grounds. The osculation was
the signal for a burst of applause and
loud cheers , auiid which and the con
gratulations of many . .woll wishers Mr
nnd Mrs. Beresford Jumped into their
carriage aud were driven away. Tbo set
of furniture was sent after them , and
Jabez and Mary Augusta have the satis
faction of knowing their wedding was
nioro largely attended than any ever
celebrated in Wisconsin. Beresford
told thoHcrald reporter that he saw the
association's advertisement in a paper ,
nnd thought it a good plan to make that
much furniture easily , and as Mary was
willing , they volunteered.
The RothHohlld Wedding.
Paris Correspondence : There have
been a number of fashionable marriages
in tbo course of the week , and among
HID number was one which dragged so
long that every one said it was "high
time when it was announced. I moan
the wedding of Mile. Helena do Both-
schild and tlio Belgian cavalry ollicer.
Ho is rich in names , but until she bo-
carne his wife hocould ] not boast of being
rich in worldly gear. The style and
titles of the great heiress in question
nro Baron Stephen van Nyevelt , van
Ilaar , van Zuylon , He is quite genuine.
Belgians nro generally what they look
unci sot up to bo. His wealthy bride
worships him , and I dare say she will
remain satisfied with her bargain. Her
relatives are furious , nnd find fault with
her for not having ehosen a more intel
lectual busband. They forgot that she
was shut out from most things which in
duce a taste for mental superiority. The
men who had climbed to eminence by
their talents , and whom she was allowed
to see , were all of the fogy ago aud
patriarchs.
The marriage of the baron so rich m
"vans" and of the lady so rich in gold
diil not take place with the accompani
ment of boll , music- and candle light , it
having been by special dispensation sol-
unmixed or. rather , got through in
the dingy llttlo sacristy of St. llonoro
tl'Kyhin. This was because the bride
did not renounce Judaism and got bap-
ti/.ed. A priest cannot marry n Jew or
Jewess to a Christian before an altar , and
ho can only join their hands
with maimed rights in the sa
cristy by special dispensation from
Iho popo. The ecclesiastic who
blc.sscd the Belgian baron and the
heiress on this occasion was Bishop Sis-
Eon. I like to see a bride go from the
paternal homo with all the triumphal
circumstance of white satin and orange
blossoms , and followed by a long train ol
brilliantly dressed and sympathizing
friends. There was nothing of this al
the triple "van" and Rothschild marri
ngu. But there was that admirable
thing without which every bridal is t
poor pair a bride's face expressing ttu
most entire confidence in tno man fitu
had resolved to take , for Dettcr or foi
worse , ngamst the long-kopt-up opposl
lion of tlio powerful tribe to which shi
belonged by birth.
Tbo position of the bridegroom nt
Brussels is a good ono. Ho is a brother
iii-law of M. Van do Vefdodo van Xuylen
whoso name is familiar to every roado
( > f the Independence Beige , or any ctlio
Brussels paper. Viscomte Louis Jo
Tbury , ono of the bride's witnesses , belongs
longs to the most clerical of the Faubourj
St. ( iermain families. Mr. Sandford , th

In diplomacy. I think , seeing that lie
newly married baroness is ono of hoU
greatest heiresses of the day , it is wol
both for her aud the baron that she ha
takeu her own course in getting mat

Married and linprUnncd by a ' Count
New Vork Journal : That'was a Straus
case which was unearthed Home time ngo
in Florence , Italy , by Mr. A. Schuyler
Crosby , who was then United States cons
sul nt that place , says the Indianapolis
Journal. Ono day ho was conducting n
party of Americans through the principal
places of interest in the city , and ninong
the places visited was the insane asvltim.
As the party was going through the
wards ono of the inmates of the institu
tion suddenly called out to Mr. Crosby :
"Oh , sir , you nro an American , are you
not ? 1-or God's sake come hero and lis
ten to my story. " Mr. Crosby went to
the cell from whence the piteous appeal
came , and saw before the bars a woman
much emaciated but apparently sane.
He listened to her story , and , after mak
ing inquiries , set himself to work to pro
cure her release , in which lie succeeded
after a great deal of trouble. Tlio
woman's story was as follows :
She was born in Mobile , Ala. , of
wealthy parents , and being attractive in
appearance she had n number of suitors
for her hand in marrlago. One dny nn
Italian came to the city. He was haild-
some nnd wrote the prefix count before
his name. Ho soon got himself intro
duced into the best circles of Mobile so
ciety , and by his pleasing and courte
ous bearing became a great favorite
among the ladies of this place. He be
came n constant visitor at Iho house of
Miss , the subject of this story , nnd i
Intimacy began to ripen into love on the
part of the girl.
Her parents did not npprovo of the
match , but the handsome Italian portrayed
trayed in glowing terms the wealth of
his affection for her and the beauties of
the lovely Florentine home which hn
wished her to become the mistress of. At
last his entreaties were successful , and
the young girl was married to the
"count" secretly.
When the girl's parents hoard of it
they wcro enraged. Her father refused
to have anything to do with her , nnd , in
stead of giving her the fortune ho had
intended to be ners , settled on her a sum
of $2,000 a year. The young couple
started for Europe , but it soon became
apparent to the wife that her husband
was not only not in love with her , but
that his only object in marrying her waste
to procure her fortune , and having
failed in that through the anger of her
father , he had no more use for her.
Shortly after reaching Florence the
count had three physicians called in and
the made nn examination of the young
girl , much to her surprise and terror.
On the following day n covered wagon
came to the door and she was told to get
inside. She tainted , nnd when she re
covered she found herself in nn insane
asylum. There she remained for over
two yenrs , until she was found by
Mr. Crosby. Meanwhile the husband ,
who had caused her incarceration , wrote
homo to the girl's parents that she was
very sick ana described the expense he
was putting himself to in order to take
proper care of the girl ho loved so well.
The father was too proud to allow him to
bear the full expense of his daughter's
expense under the circumstances , nnd
the annual remittances continued to
como along. The count paid $500 to tlio
keeper of bis wifoand lived in good style
on the remaining $1,000. As soon as the
news reached Mobile of the trno state of
affairs , however , the remittances sud-
ponly stopped and the young girl was
received borne with open arms. The
count is still living in Florence , but ho
has to resort to other means of earning a
living.
Marriage of Actresses.
Rochester ( N. Y. ) Democrat : One of
the most celebrated marriages of an
actress in the United States was that of
Julia Dean. She was , about thirty years
ago , what Mary Anderson is to-day the
most popular of all women on thn stage.
She married Dr. Paul Hayno , of South
Carolina. Ho wus a son of Senator
Hayno , whoso great debates with Web
ster are renowned. Hut he was poor , ami
the stage career of his wife was not in
terrupted by marriage. They did not
live happily together. She made n Cal
ifornia tour with the most satisfactory
results. In 1366 she was divorcedand in
1807 she married James Cooper. She
died in the city of Now York. Hayno is
in San Francisco , practicing medicine.
Mrs. John Hoey , known as Mrs. Uussoll ,
of forty years ngo , was , bcioro Miss
Kingdon's marriage witli Gould , perhaps
the wealthiest lady who over married
from the stage. She married John llooy ,
now the principal man of the Adams'
express company , tbo owner of Long
Branch and the possessor of great wealth
in New York.
Love Triumphant.
LouisTillo Courier-Journal : Thomas
Lewis and Miss Ida Maupin. residing
near Magnolia , in Laruo county , eloped
to Jcffersonvillo yesterday morning and
were married by Justice Lee at Strauss'
hotel. For some time the attentions of
Lewis to Miss Mauphin have been objec
tionable to her father. Last Monday
Mr. Manphin was called away from
homo on business to remain until yester
day. Strict orders were given the girl'd
mother to keep a close watch on her ,
aud during the absence of Mr. Mauphin
the mother and daughter occupied the
same bed. To prevent the yonng lady
from slipped away , a stout cord was
nightly attached to the wrist of each.
Lewis watched the house every night ,
but when Friday night dawned no op
portunity had been offered for eloping
with his sweetheart. A scheme to induce
her to intend church near by was con
voyed by Miss Manphin by a young lady
friend. "The plan worked'wefi , amT after
the services , on ono pretext or another ,
Mrs. Mauphin was kept up until she was
so sleepy that when she retired she for
got to take the usual precaution Shortly
after midnight the dash for liberty was
made to where Lewis was in waiting
with a buggy. An uneventful trip fol
lowed to this city by train from the
nearest station. From hero they crossed j
to Jofforsonvillo and were quickly mar
ried.
Dash fill Bridegroom.
Rochester , ( N , Y. ) Herald : A justice
of the peace in Saratoga county recently
joined a pair'who wrro so embarrassed
that they hardly know what they were
doing. The man were n white straw hat : ,
which ho whirled on his finger before
the ceremony began. When told to
stand up he jumped before the justice
with great alacrity. For a few moments
ho did not know what to do with his hat ,
but finally found his way out of tbo dif
ficulty by putting it between his knees. !
This was too much for the brido. 'With
the handle pf her parasol she caught the
hat , pulled it from its position , nud then ,
abashed at her audacity , dropped hat 1
nnd parnsol to the lloor.
The same justice tolls a story of another
- couple who came to bo married. The
, man was dreadfully puzzled , and with
out realizing the act pulled a cigar from
his pocket nnd began twirling it around.
When that portion of the ceremony was
- reached where bride and groom joh :
hands be happened to have ths cigar in
his right hand. What to do with lie cigar
ho nppnrontly did not know. The jus
tice paused a minute , nnd then again di
rected the pair to join hands. By thl *
U time the poor fellow's embarrassment
as was painful. Ho gave ono agonizing
- look at tin ) justice of the peace and stuck
the cigar in his mouth. Before the cere
as niony conld be concluded the justice had
to taKe the cigar from between the man't
lips.

Waddings in Old Trinity.
Now York Sun : Assistant Sexton Pat
terson was sitting comfortably tilted
backward upon two legs of a stool , the
other morning , just inside the south door
of Trinity church. "Speaking of wed
dings. " ho said , "wo got lots of them
bore. People like to got married in old
Trinity you know. Everybody that
speaks English has heard of thn church ,
and folks like to tell their neighbors they
were married hcra. Why. bless you ,
when they get to bo grandmams they
will pat their children's children on the
head and say , 'Your grandpa nud I
were married in Trinity church. ' And
then it's really the finest place in the
world to get married in , nnyhow. Its so
solemn and still hero , every surround
ing is so beautiful , the very air is awe
some , the light comes througli the windows
dews softened and tinted , and the organ
sounds so wonderful , interrupting the
softened noises from tlio street. I don't '
wonder they like it.
"Wo have two or three weddings a day
hero sometimes. Then again , wo have
but two or three n week , and some weeks
wo don't have any. |
"All kinds of people get married hero.
Some como from wav oil' on purpose for
it. Wo had a couple" from Philadelphia
yesterday and not long ngo nn English
lady that was hero visiting got married.
She said she'd stay single but what she'd
bo married in Trinity , Her sister was
married here , and she would be , too. A
southern congressman dropped in hero
once , and was married oil-hand , just as
if It was nothing to him. They generally
make arrangements before hand with
ths head sexton.
"What do they give the minister ? Oh ,
$10 for the minister and sexton together.
That's tlio regular foe , but sometimes
they give n great deal more. Dr. Dix
marries folks sometimes here , but not
the stray couples thnt I've been talking
about. No ono hears of half the weddings
in this church. "
First Foreign Wedding In Corcn.
The Corean correspondent of the Japan
Mail writes ns follows from Seoul on the
8th of July : The first foreign wedding
iu Seoul' took place July 5,1887. The
parties forming the union were the Ucv.
D. A. Hunker , one of tbo teachers in the
royal Corean college , established a year
ngo , and Miss Anmo Ellers , physician to
her majesty the queen. All the foreign
residents of tlio capital were presentand
some of the native otlicials. The pre
sents to the bride were many and various ,
the richly and beautifully embroidered
screens sent by thn queen attracting a
great deal of attention.
Prince Min Yong Ik , who a year ago
loft for China in such great liasto , re
turned a short time ago with a few more
ideas of reform. One of these is to dress
the soldiers according to foreign style ,
and to do away with the rank of kulso
The kulso is a soldier ono grndn above
the ordinary rank , and attached ns a
special guard of honor to native oflicials
and foreign legations. There are 3,00 (
of these iu tho'country , and tbo idea is
to make them serviceable to tbo govern
ment , rather than to individuals , m case
ot necessity.

formalities. liut all's well that ends
well. The disunited spouses are to bo
married in a few days.
Afternoon Weddings.
ChicagoTribune : Afternoon weddings
are now of far mere frequent occurrence
in England than weddings in the fore-
noon.'not only among ultra-fashionable
pcopln ns heretofore , but among society
in general. The advantages of this
change are numerous , and convenience ,
economy nnd sociability may be ranked
among them , Under the head of conven
ience may first bo mentioned the strain
that is now taken off n bridal party as re
gards the hour of arrival at the church ,
nnd when the distance was considerable
this strain was the more acutely felt , and
the fear of not being in time was the up
permost thought in the minds of most
brides when completing their bridal
toilets , n state of perturbation not calcu-
lated to engender nn unruflled demeanor
ou this important occasion.

which seemed to fill the gloomy court

surreptitiously happy and she looked
bashfully from behind horstalwart lover's
arm. They wanted to bo married. The
divorce suit wan suspended at once , for
the court will stop unmaking marriages
to make one at anytime. The ceremony

speech as gallant as n Chesterfield could
make ho presented it to tbo brido. Tbo
little lady accepted the money , and with
n quick , graceful movement she drew
the boquot of roses from her bosom and
placed it before the judge. With a bow
ho received the rosebuds , nnd a fovy mo

suit , but the swcot odor pervaded thu

FOUND AND LOST A FORTUNE
Tough Struggle of the Discoverer of the
Now York Oil Fields ,
O , P. TAYLOR'S RISE AND FALL.
How the Plucky Old Man Fashed For
ward Over Obstacles nnd Died
at the First Dawn of
HnccesB.
"I BOO Professor Orton ngrcoi with
Dee Smith that neither oil nor gas will
bo found near Omaha , " romnrkcd a
rnther seedy looking iridivldunl who was
standing at the corner of Fifteenth and
Farnam streets yesterday. "Well , I don't
bcliovo a word that those professional
geologists say. I'm an old driller myself -
self and I 'learned my trade' under old
O. P. Taylor.
"Who is O. P. Taylort Didn't you ever
hear of him ? Why , ho was the man who
discovered the Now York oil Holds , aud
ho was a dandy. Ho didn't bcltovo m
any science , excepting such as ho had
himself. Ho ran a cigar factory in
WellsTille , N. Y. , for a good many years ,
and had saved considerable stuff. Well ,
when the excitement over the big wells
in the liradford field began todio out , old
Taylor got it in to his head that the coun
try needed nioro oil and that ho was the
man to discover it. So ho started nut to
look for a location aud to lease lands.
Pretty soon ho struck a site that suited
him , and ho wont to work and leased
every bit of land for miles around. Ho
didn't take any partners , but wont it
alone , and when ho had got all the land
that there was to bo had ho started to
drill Iii8 first well. He called it Triangle
No. 1 , for ho had an idea that if the first
well didn't strike a good third sand , he
would operate in triangles until he struck
the oil belt , which ho was dead sure ran
somewhere in that neighborhood.
"Well , down went Triangle No. 1 , and
there were good indications that it was
in the right spot. But when the well wus
down to about the right depth , along
came some Standard Oil fellows ami
fixed' ' the drillers. So they nut up a job
on old O. P. , and , although there was oil ,
they plugged up the hole so it only
showed up for two or three barrels.
Then ho started in on Triangle No. 2 ,
and had the same game played on him.
Triangle No. 8 came out just the same.
"H.V this time Taylor's tobacco bus !
ness had gone to the dogs and most all
his money was in holes in the ground.
But lie wasn't discouraged. Ho started
another well , mortgaging his business
and disposing of all the real estate ho
had. Tnat well came In just like the
others. Then he pawned his wife's jew
elry and began to bore once more. How
he did cuss every time a well came in
dryl Ho was the very worst cussor I
over know , and the air was bluer than a
whetstone when ho would open up on his
luck , the Standard Oil company and the
world in general.
"Finally ho ran out of funds and
couldn't raise another dollar. Every
body railed him a crazy crank , a fool and
everything else they could think of. But
the old man kept on , plugging away by
himself. lie couldn't hire any drillers ,
for ho couldn't p-iy. The world seemed
( lead sot against him , nnd he couldn'i
find a friend who would speak a kinr
word for him. His long , curly hair began
to get gray , nnd ho had a dejected , worn-
out look. His everlasting grit , though
held out.
"Finally ho wandered to tlio little town
of Hichburg , away off the railroad , sur
rounded bv the big hills of Allegany
county , ana there he talked some farmers
into believing that ( hero was oil under
their lauds , Ho put in his experience ,
they put in the money , and down wcnl
another well. During all these years
Taylor had learned a fnw things , and
when the hole began to get down in thi
neighborhood of third sand he never let
the derrick. Kvery time the sand-pumi :
came up lie was there to see what it had
He used to make the drillers shut dowr
nights , and ho would screw on a capovo
the hole and sleep with his head on it.
even though there was snow on the
ground. Ho had ruado up his mind to
have no 'monkey-work'and there wasn't
any.
any."One day in March the drill got into
third sand , and when the pump showed
up you ought to have seen O. P. dance
and Hwcar. It was bettor than a circus
and tbo happiest moment of his life. The
news of tuo strike quickly spread , and
when the well was ready to shoot the
little town was filled with thousands of
oil men. Taylor was fairly crazy , and
after the torpedo had exploded and
shown up a gusher of seventy-live bar
rels ho waa the hero of the occasion.
Everything mean that had been said
about him was taken back , for the crazy
crank wtts now a millionaire and had
made fortunes for land owners through
out the county.
"But O. P. was a millionaire only in
expectation. After ho had proved that
ho was right about oil in Allegany
county , ho had 1 nothing further to keep
him up. Hard work had ruined his
health , and before ho had begun to real-
i/.o his good fortune ho was taken with a
hemorrhage and died. The whole county
turned out to his funeral and the papers
printed tender obituary notices , but
merciless creditors swallowed up what
little the old man had loft , and the for
tunes made in the New York oil Hold
have gone into strangers' pockets. "
