And 'during nil this tlmo refrain
From pleasure's practice or intent.
I shall not give but Russian teas ,
Nor dance except the plainest waltz ,

"Well , that shall be my least of faults.

Say , I'nrma violets in hues ,
Fit for thcso penitential hours ,
Oh , then , I wonder , if I will lot-
Just out of gratitude , you know

And for nwhilo myself forget ;

Matrimonial
The expense of getting married nowadays ,
even to a couple in moderate clrcnmstances ,
is simply terrific. However humble their
walk In life , the wedding festivities nfford
temptations for unstinted extravagance , nnd
Unless ono has his pockctbook nailed down
out of sight , ho is likely to emerge from his
honeymoon n poorer if not a sadder man.
It often happens that the wedding trip nnd
its attendant expenses so impoverish the
groom that the money carefully saved to
commence housekeeping with is squandered ,
and the Inconveniences of a boarding , house
must bo substituted for the pleasures' a
home.
Another thing well worth pondering IB the
fact that It Is a tolerably safe rule for a
young man never to marry a girl who Is
blessed with any special gift which tends to
bring her into public notice. Thcro Is a dan
ger lest she may grow to love her talent moro
than she docs her husband. Besides , it must
bo an uncomfortable sensation for a fellow
to go stalking about with the consciousness
that ho is being pointed out as Ella Wheel
er's husband or Amelia Hives' bridegroom ,
or Bolvn Lockwood's trousers , or Lily Lang-
try's encumbrance. The knowledge that
one's personality is overshadowed by his
wife's does not sweeten a man's nature when
bo finds his breakfast half an hour behind
hand on n dark morning. 1 have two young
men in my mind now , both of whom married
girls of exceptional musical genius. They
nro both separated from their gifted
wives , whom they considerately allowed to
nupoort them with their voices as long as
affection lasted ; they have loafed so long at
homo , while their wives sang in public , that
now they are utterly worthless for business
pursuits ; the wives are too infatuated with
their muslo to care for homo or children , nnd
all the members of this nilsmntcd quartet
nro unanimous in the opinion that marriages
uro a failure.
Nuptial alliances have in their turn swayed
the hearts of our" young people who are most
actively engrossed in fashion's swirl , and
harvested anew the conventional crop of
Bniilax &nd cast-oft slippers , of orange blossoms -
soms garnished with tears. vVhut the
future may have in store for all these for
tunate wedded pairs must be loft for the his
torian of the twentieth century to recount.
'a his much may bo said , however , that it wili
bo widely different from any programme ar
ranged for them in advance. There is an
other clnss the engaged couples
who have not yet fully emerged
from the ranks of "buds" . nnd
"stags , " but of whoso early evolution
. into the matrimonial state oftlcial announce
ment has been given. The list , like the con
dition it represents , Is shoit and sweet.
These happy creatures , it is urcsumcd , are in
BO ecstatic state of expectant bliss. Lbt
them heed this little cpisodo in the cxperi-
cnco of an acquaintance. On his wedding
day ho was approached by n friend , an old
lawyer , who congratulated him upon having
( ot to the end of all his troubles. Time
rolled on , domestic infelicity developed in
my friend's household and n separation ensued -
, sued , which culminated In a divorce. About
this time my unhappy acquaintance and bin
old legal friend met. "See here , " demanded
the former , after narrating his domestic dif
ficulties , "I thought you told me on my wed
ding day that I had reached the end of all
roy troubles. " "So 1 did , sir. " retorted the
' old codger , emphatically , "soil did ; but I
didn't say which end ! "

[ F
. ImtUcR In Washington Society.
The attention of society people is now
turned toward the capital where tbo recent
cabinet nnd other 'changes ' have introduced
DOW personages and now ladles into social
prominence nnd distinction. Mrs. Morton
will be Mrs. Whitney's successor in Washington -
- ington , society. She will .not excel Mrs.
Whitney no ono could do that , but she will
, take her place as fully , perhaps , as It could
be taken by anyone. Mrs. Blalno will enter
tain successfully in her now old mansion.
Bho has chanced as much as her husband in
' night years , nna was never so charming us
now. Mrs. Wlndom will entertain quietly
> but hospitably us she did before. Mrs. Wnn-
nmakcr and young Mrs. Wanamakcr , who
< has already many friends there , will keep 3i i
up the traditions of the Frelinghuyscn
tionso , nnd the wives of the other cabinet
ofllcers will doubtless do their share of the
social work wblcn fulls to them , But for en
tertaining on the grand scale nnd la the
oplcndid style the administration will have
to loolc to the vlco president and his wife ,
who aro. richer twice aver than all the others
put together.
Such great wealth Is of course Indispensa
ble. It is valueless In Itself , but Invaluable
when the social qualities go with it. Mrs.
Whitney simply did every day nnd every
hour of tlio day without effort what the rest
do once in a while , longer or shorter as
their purse , ana with moro or less of any ef
fort , All day nnd half the night the Whlt-
noy'B ' housr ) stood hospitably open to Its
friends. It saw guests at every meal nnd
guests between every meal , a mtmlcnlo every
other afternoon , a dunce every other even
ing. Everything , nt all times , was of the
* best nt its best and all in perfect tasto.
Through it all the Whitnoys , secure in the
certainty to vlcaso , seemed ns happy nnd as
unconcerned aa the youngest of their guests.
Their tuct wns us remarkable as their tasto.
They invited a good many people to their
liouso from without the pale of "society. "
That wus ono of the many expressions of
their kindly liberality. No ono of these out
siders wns over allowed to fcol otherwise
than ut homo. No one could fcol otherwise
In the genial atmosphere. They never al
lowed their entertainments to become mon
otonous. Each was fresh and all were diftur-
cnt , so that they never lost their zest. Take
thorn nil in all und it muy bo doubted whether
you could find a moro a brilliant series any
where.
Now Mr , and Mrs. Morton can and will
omulutu their example successfully , To bo
bure. when they lived in Washington before
in old Sam Hooper's old-fashioned house ,
whcro Morton's apartment house stands now.
they did not entertain very much , but Mor
ton was only a representative then and very
llttlo was expected of thorn. They showed
what they could and would do afterward m
Paris , where they entertained ns none of our
rcpVusentativua entertained before , and ns
low of them will do hereafter ,

A Kansas farmer says : "As soon as

with a light blow of a hammer on the

It will bo remembered that not long nro
Union P.icitlc called on Council Bluffs breth
ren and that last week South Omaha No , CO
received the Omaha lodges. Both receptions
were hOiirty and grcj'.ly appreciated by the
Omaha Workmen. In order that the good
feelings thus brought to the surface may not
again seclude themselves , It wns proposed by
Union Pacific that the workmen of the Gate
City bid those of Council Bluffs nnd South
Omaha to a grand reunion in this city. The
suggestion met with cordial rcceution and
iho fraternity of the three cities will soon bo
brought together as indicated.
Union Pacific nearly doubled Its member
ship during last year nnd is now entitled to
two representatives in the grand lodge. A
good deal of enthusiasm exists among the
members and the spirit has spread beyond
this one lodpo nnd manifested itself in oth
ers , notably the rapidly growing lodge nt
South Omaha.
The annual meeting of the supreme lodge
of the United States and Canada , beginning
on the third Tuesday in June , will bo In
Omaha. Thcro will bo 100 representatives ,
but of course many friends prominent in the
organization will largely swell the attend

of general legislation. Ritualistic work and
any other subject of general concern will re
ceive attention at the hands cf this supervis
ory body. These annual conventions , it is
stated , consume from six.to ten days. The

DANTE'S CURS ,
Una it Kcnlljr UCRIIII to Ijlght Upon
the Itonso or HnpMmrc ?
The late terrible event In Vienna ,
Bays n , writer In the Boston Transcript ,
the death of young Rudolph , the crown
prlnco , whether by his own hand or
tnothor's , might lend n BupcrstHutlous
mind to fool as though the terrible im
precation of Dante , (300 ( years after its
utterance , had begun to light upon the
house of uapsburp.
The emperor of this house who bore
.ho . imino ot Rudolph , the direct nncos-
, orof this young victim , cither of his
vices or his misfortunes , was the ono
\ ivhom Dante mentions in the seventh
f ante of the "Purgatorlo , " in a. very
celebrated . passage , which , to nmuo our
comments inoro intelligible , wo will
quote J somewhat at length from Dr.
Parson's translation. Wo are so far re
moved from the BCOHO ot this catas
trophe that any comments ot ours could
hardly bo suppose to awaken n pane in
any private bosom , and the * historical
tacts of the "Dlvlno Comedy , " ns woU
us the great poem Itself , are so well
known In Germany that it would hardly
bo necessary there to touch upon n
reminiscence which may bo now and
perhaps interesting in Boston ,
It may bo necessary to promise to ono
not familiar with the history of the ago
preceding Dante that all Italy was di
vided and sub-divided into little states ,
some republican , some aristocratic , and
countless ( lots , each with its own little
tyrant. The plays ot Shakespeare hnvo
sufficiently acquainted the English
reader with the intestine broils of the
little states ot Sionnnnnd Florence and
Verona. It was the deep desire ot
Dante's heart that the Gorman em
peror should stop In with n high hand
and inuUo a stable government. Ho
compares his beloved Italy to a restive
steed that needs the taming ot a strong
and skillful master. Ho wanted the
pope to mind his own spiritual affairs
and leave to Ctusar what was Cajsar's.
In the seventh cunto of the "Purga-
torlo , " Sordolle , a countryman of Virgil ,
a man of Mantua , points out to the two
poets whom ho is guiding a group of
very distinguished personages. Ho con
ducts Virgil and Dante to n retired
place allotted to those spirits who have
neglected their opportunities , saying
these words :
Best then wo think of some good resting-
place ,
Some souls thcro bo removed hero to the
right ,
Whom , if thou wilt , I'll ' show theo face to
face ,
Accordingly ho leads them farther on
to whore
on the mountain side
\ valley opened Just like valleys hero.
* * *
Gold and ilno silver , ceruse , cochineal ,
India's rich wood , heaven's lucid blue se
rene ,
Or glow that emerald's freshly broke reveal.
Hud all been vanquished by 'tho varied
sheen ,
Or this bright valley , set with shrubs and
flowers ,
As less by greater. Nor had Natxiro there
Only in painting spent herself , but showers
Of odors manifold made sweet the air
Witli ono strange mingling of confused per
fume ;
And there new spirits , chanting , I des
cried ,
"Salvo Hcglna ! " seated on the bloom
And verdure sheltered by the dingle side.
After this delicious description , Sor-
dello continues- thus :
Ere yon low sun shall nestle in his bed
( Begun the Mantuan who had brought us
hero ) ,
Desire not down among them to bo led.
You better will observe how they appear.
Both face and action , from this bank , instead
Of mixing1with" them in the dale. That
one
Who sits the highest , looking mid the throng
As though BO'IIJO duty ho hud loft undone ,
Who moves his lips not with the rest in song.
Was Uodolph emperor , ho who might have
healed
Those wounds which Italy have so far spent ,
'Inat slow relief all other helpers yield.
There is an implied touch in this pas
sage resembling that in Matboth , where
he savs "I could not say 'Amen' when
they did say'God bless us ! ' * * * I
had mpst need of blessing , and 'Amen'
stuck in my throat. "
One might almost suppose that Shak-
spcaro was familiar with this passage
in "Purgatorio. " Chaucer was inti
mately acquainted with Dante , and it is
barely possible that Shakspoaro may
have road this lino. Rodolph. like Mac
'
beth , had need enough of a' blessing ,
but ho had neglected his duty , and
when the others did sing "Salvo Re-
ina" ho could not move his lips with
theirs. '
When those verses were written Ro
dolph was dead and his son Albert
filled the imperial seat. In the imme
diately preceding canto ( the sixth )
Dante uddrcsees the living Albert in a
burst of indignant invective , which for
its prolonged power and bitterness , is
thought by some Gorman critics to have'
no parallel in poetry. The late Kincr
John of Saxony , who has translated tno
"Divine Comedy , " expressed this opin
ion to an eminent scholar of this city.
"There is nothing in Homer , nothing
in JEschylus'nothing , in Shakspoaro to
equal it in its heiirtfolt fury. Cicero or
Demostheneso has nothing more bitter.
For astratn of equal force wo can only
look to the ancient prophets , to Ezokicf ,
to Isaiah , to the Psalms of David , or
whoever wrote them. The superiority
of Dante over Shnkspearo lies in this ,
thnl ho is not sneaking inn fiction In
n dream of passion but ispoitring forth
the real indignation ot his overcharged
bosom. It Is not nn imaginary chnrao-
tor uttering imaginary sentiments , but
a real man writing in the highest Itm-
Kiiago ot poetry , the deepest toolings ot
his heart ,
O Gorman Albert ! who nbandoncst

The Strawberry Farmer's Market.
B. P. Smith in his forthcoming man
ual makes the following suggestions to
strawberry farmers : The nearer tho.
berries can bo grown to the consumer
the moro profitable will bo the crop.
Thn man who contemplates going Into
borrv culture should first consider well
the locality before ho begins his berry
farming , ( bur great market centers are
not tlio surest places for tlio best prices.
Being great markets , they are often
glutted xvith the products of many miles
around. While berries will always sell
for something in a largo city , they will
command bettor prices when grown
near by or shipped to the smaller cities
and towns of our country.
When grown near a county town ,
market the grower can save the ex
pense of freight and the commission for
selling , which is no small ito . Almost
every town In the countrv with 'a popu
lation of from 5,000 to 10,000 inhabitants
can consume the product of from toiuto
fifteen acres of strawberries , and a city
of 20,000 to 80.000 people ought to con
sume the product of at least fifty acres
when fully supplied.
The Culture of Onta.
In the course of a paper road by Hon.
S. B. Farwoll before the Osborn County
( Kan. ) Farmers' institute recently , ho
said that from his oxporioncoi raising
oats ho had drawn the following conclu
sions :
That oats are a profitable crop to ralso.
That with good seed and proper cultiva
tion they will never bo a total failure.
That the best manner to put them in is
cither on fall plowing or clean corn ,
ground and then with a drill , and not
less than two bushels of seeds per acre-
two and ono half is bettor. Cultivating
thorn in is the next best way if ground
is clean. If ground is foul , plowing
them in shallow and n favorable spring
will bring a good crop. Broadcast
seeding and harrowing them in is the ? 1
poorest way to put them in. I am not VI
satisllod which is the better seed. I 'it
have had about equal success with the
Red Texas and the Black Winter oats ;
either are much bettor than the White
oats. Bo sure to put on plenty of seed.
Of the Black oats , from ono and one-
half to two and one-half bushels is not
too much. One-half bushel per ucro
loss can safely bo-used with a drill than
when sowing broadcast. -
My experience has all been on bottom
tom and second bottom land. I know of
equally as successful experience on up
land.
"Warble" Flics.
With domesticated cattle on fur mi
there is no excuse for permitting a
single "warble" fly to mature , and
thereby make it possible for the insect
to become multiplied in any now region.
The remedies suggested , while not act
ing as a present remedy , will mak fu
ture attacks less liable by removing the
) lv that is parent to the "wormals. "
Whore a direct and immediate relief
j cannot always bq had , the next best
remedy must bo resorted , to if wo .would
prevent future injury.
