WEDDED.
Wedded' Ah. what a world of joy or sorrow this
one word declares.
Wedded and yet ur..noted, it speaks of sighs
and tears:
Cut wedded and truly mated, ah! what a joy is
this.
Therein the angels see a kindred bliss.
Wedded and yet unmated!
Doomed to a life of miserable failure,
Spoiled by an intluer.ee as deadly as the grave;
Life stripped of every noble aspiration.
Two lives to baser passions mode the slave.
Ah ’tis a spectacle to make the angels weep;
And yet to such a fate the thoughtless madly
leap.
Wedded and yet unmated: consider such a pair;
The man grows cynical, the woman cross—
They grow indifferent to both gain and loss.
No sympathy between them; yet the link that
binds
Them shuts them out from sympathy more kind;
Misunderstanding condemns their liest, motives.
Suspicion is ever alert to defame;
Their noblest impulses ever are thwarted
Jiv coming in contact with cruel disdain
And so all the good of their natures is soured.
And nothing is left but suspicion and care:
The good germs that else/hero had beautifully
flowered
Are rotted, and nothing but evil is there
And yet there is hope in this awful dilemma,
That out of its ashes some good may arise—
That these two ill-mated may ripen‘together,
If t hey work in the vineyard that sows for the
skies:
Determinedly shunning the points of their dis
cord, *
They seek for the peace this world cannot af
ford ;
They bow to the Master, and pray that He take
Them and use them together, and so they for
sake
Themselves and their idols,
And thus they grow happy in serving their
Lord.
Wedded and truly mated!
How find we such a pair?
Sweetest sympathy existing, ever binding heart
to heart.
Burdens lightened, pleasures heightened;
As of each tuey share a paid.
So they strengthen and encourage
Each to deeds of noble worth;
Looking for a closer union.
When they leave this mortal earth.
Happily wedded, truly mated!
Lies there danger in the path?
Vea, appalling danger threat ens
Such as this great treasure hath.
Occupied with selfish pleasure, ever seeking
each to please;
They may forget thatduty calls for more than
these.
Self-sufficed they nfay forget Him who gave
them all they love;
Till a rude awakening bids them only worship
God above.
And t.hus it is.
The best attainments are only gained in wedded
life;
When God's sway is undisputed in the heart of
man and wife.
—Arundel.
MARK TWAIN’S REFERENCES.
The Way He Broke His Father-in-Law
All Up.
New York, Aug. 13.— Mark Twain is in
New York almost every week. He is very
much at home in the city, though, singu
larly enough, he never stops twice at the
same hotel, that is, not twice consecutively.
This is because he likes variety. It has
nothing to rlo with the hill or his methods
of payment. Mark is all right, though
every now and then some old crony from
the West who hasn’t struck pay dirt since
’49 will turn up with a queer story about
the great humorist and his days of impeou
niosity. Little do these detractors know
tliut Mark was called upon very suddenly
cue day to furnish Californian testimonials
to his good character, and that he passed
through the ordeal in a fashion that should
silence all carping criticism. The story was
somewhat thus:
As everyone knows, Mr. Clemens first met
his lieautiful wife while on the famous voy
age of the Quaker City, and ho pursued his
acquaintance after their return so closely
that at last the young lady's papa one dav
called the ardent and devoted Mark into his
private study and said, after some pre
amble;
“Mr. Clemens, I have something to say to
you which liears upon a subject of grave
importance, at least to me and mine. You
have lieen coming here for some time and
your manners leave no doubt in my mind as
to your object. Now, my daughter’s wel
fare is very dear to me, and before I can ad
mit you to her society on the footing of a
suitor to her hand I would like to know some
thing more than I do about your antece
dents, &e. Stop a minute? You must re
member that a man may be a ‘good follow’
aud a pleasant companion on a voyage and
all that, but when it is a question as grave as
ihis a wist* father tries to take every precau
tion before allowing his daughter’s affections
to become engaged, and I ask of you, as a
gentleman, Siat you shall give me the
names of snmo of your friends in California
to whom I may write and make such inqui
ries as I deem necessary, if you still de
sire our friendship.”
It was now Mark Twain’s turn.
“Mir,” said he, bowing profoundly, as lie
ne a young man who respebts his hoped
f‘ ' father-in-law. “Your sentiments are
very correct. I approve of them my
solf, and hasten to add that you have not
been mistaken in my sentiments towards
your daughter, whom I may tell you can
didly seems to me to be the most perfect of
her sex, and I honor your solicitation for
her welfare. lam not only perfectly will
ing to give you reference hut am only too
glad to have an opportunity to do so, which
my natural modesty would have prevented
me from offering. Therefore, permit me to
give you the names of a few of my friends.
I will write them down. First is Lieut,
lien. .John McComb, Alexander Badlnm,
ben. Lander and Col. AV. H. L. Barnes.
They will all lie for me just as I would for
them under like circumstances.”
Tlio conclusion broke the old man all up,
and he never ask'd more reference nor
wrote to thoso gentlemen. Those who know
this quartette will appreciate the joke.
A few weeks beforo Mark Twain started
away on the trip mentioned aliove he was
standing on Montgomery street, leaning up
ugainst n lamp post, and he held a cigar box
under one arm. Mrs. Capt. Edward Poole,
a very beautiful woman, mid as bright and
as witty as beautiful, canjo along and
popped and held out her hand saying:
“Why, Mark, where are you going in such
a hurry?” “I’m m-o-o-v-ing,” drawled
Mark, at the same time ojicning the cigar
'•ox, disclosing a pair of blue socles, a pipe,
and two paper collars.
Mark Twain never was much of a Indies'
man, and ho always apponred like a fish out
of water when he happened to be near them.
A good story is told of a visit he for some
reason had to make to a lady since known ns
a very fine painter and writer, though then
slio was only a “society lady” and her pow
<rs were yet untried. Tliero were several
young ladies visiting there from Napa,
and they took the occasion to have
some dressmaking doue, and they
had obtained a wax lay figure to I
by the dresses on. The afternoon was t
rnitiy and the girls had nil been at work, not
expecting visitors ami they had dressed the
figure in Mrs. B s clothes and then went
°ut of the dining room to tea. In the mean
time Murk rang the liell ami was admitted,
and while waiting he sauntered to the open
floors of t.ho hack parlor and there saw Mrs.
h ,as he supposed, and he marie as good
a Imiw as he could, which is not saying
much, and Said: “Quod afternoon.”
No answer. Ho cleared his throat and
Advanced a few steps, saying:
“Ahem! I remarked, Mrs. B .that —
that— it is raining.”
Still no answer, and flushing, lie stuck
both hands far down iu his pockets, and
going a few sto|* nearer said:
“It isu pleasant day, Mrs. B . I came
up from the Alta office to—oh, pshaw!” he
exclaimed, us lie discovered his mistake,
find the fact that three or four girls were
landing in the other door behind the real
Mrs. B—— nearly strangled with suppressed
laughter.
He managed to deliver his message, but
nothing would induct' to stay, and he
went away giving the miserable figure a
uiakjvolent look us he went.

NEW YORKERS GO FOR COMFORT.
Some of the Methods Adopted to Keep
Cool.
New York, Aug. 13.—Apparently the
men of New \ ork have determined to
throw fashion to the winds this summer
and settle down to honest comfort. The
boom was begun among the swells, those
who can do anything in the matter of dress
and be pretty sure to have a large follow
mg. The attack was made first upon the
waistcoat, and in the early part of the sum
mer wealthy young men began to parade
the streets without this article of clothing,
hitherto deemed so necessary.
The coats were worn ostentatiously open
anil revealed plaited full dress shirts of im
maculate whiteness, in w hich nestled three
plain gold studs. The lower half of a four
in-hand necktie was gracefully tucked iu
the front opening of the shirt so as not to
hide the topmost stud. The result was not
unseemly.
New Yorkers have a great prejudice
against anything that lacks style. The ma
jority of the men would rather have their
heads severed from their shoulders on the
sharp edges of a four-inch standing collar
than lie considered behind the fashion.
Alley don’t object to sweltering behiud the
stillest shirt bosom, but would be horrified
at a single glance of disapproval from those
persons who are known to lead the styles,
riipy are always ready, however, to adopt
any new idea that is graceful and has the
sanction of society. The shirt bosom there
fore came into prominence and the waist
coat disappeared.
The next move toward comfort met with
strong resistance. The leaders were not
unanimous and, besides, it was a blow at
the most sacred part of a man’s attire—the
white shirt itself. In its place a flannel
shirt was to be'worn. It took a long time
to convice a small minority that with the
thermometer fluctuating between 90’ and
100' in the shade the starch in a collar and
shirt bosom would not remain firm for more
than three hours; and that a flannel shirt
was therefore nmch more beautiful, not to
say convenient, than the boiled shirt.
The leaders of the crusade were deter
mined, however, and the new garment
slowly won favor. It would hardly have
been a thorough success even then had not
some of the writers for the press lent their
aid. One morning the Sun printed a letter
from an anonymous writer, showing the
advantage of the flannel shirt, and contrast
ing it favorably with a limp linen collar
and shirt bosom. All the papers took it up
and boomed it editorially. Hardly a day
passed without some sneer at tho “biled”
shirt.
The spectacle of a man with a handker
chief stuffed inside his collar to keep the
perspiration from spoiling its stiffness was
held up to derision. ; People laughed, ad
mitted the corn and the flannel shirt was a
success. It became all the rage, and timid
persons who still clung to the white shirt
were looked upon with pity by the enthu
siastic wearers of the flannel shirt. The
stores that supply men’s apparel could not
meet the sudden demand. Tailors were
kept busy cutting them. They were made
in all colors and patterns, and in a short
time the most dignified and the most frivo
lous of men mo veil about in ease and coni"
fort.
The style has kept up and is continually
growing, and the movement toward com
fort if the hot weather continues is likely to
bo pushed to the ex creme. Already the
stores are beginning to display new inven
tions in hats and coats and trousers of white
flannel, pongee silk and other airy materials
are ostentatiously pushed to the foreground
in the show windows. The latest notion,
though, and one that has not not been ob
served outside of the upper ten, is the cum
morabund.
One night last week I attended a hop at a
fashionable hotel in one of the near-by sum
mer resorts. Many of the exclusive young
men of New York society were present. I
was surprised to see that they wore no
waistcoats. In their stead was worn what
looked like a strip of bed sheet wound
around the middle of the body. It was
about fourteen inches wide and contained a
number of creases and folds, apparently the
result of accident and not of design. Upon
closer scrutiny I observed that the material
was similar to pongee silk and was quite be
coming.
It w as the cummerabund, and, from pres
ent indications it will be all the go and may
even result in entirely displacing the full
evening vest during the summer. It is a
strip of India silk, from which it derives its
name, somewhat over two yards in length
and of the width mentioned. This is wound
aronnd the middle of the body in such a
manner as to conceal the junction of tho
shirt with the trousers and also to hide the
suspenders. The ends are tucked under out
of sight.
It is much cooler than a waistcoat and
does not touch the upper part of the body.
They are worn in solid colors, either dark
or light. The cost of one ready made
ranges from sls to $25, but the silk itself
can be bought and satisfactorily arranged
for one-quarter of that sum.

IMPAIRMENT OF HUMAN FORM.
A Law to Prevent Padding Suggested.
New Yobk, Aug. 13.—For a couple of
months I have gone twice each week to
some Turkish bath, and have visited in this
time all the best baths in New York. The
experience has brought me to believe that
Congress should pass u law compelling every
man to wear tights and providing boards of
inspection to prevent padding. Nothing
can lie done for the race from an artistic
standpoint till it really finds out how if,
looks, and nothing but extensive observation
can accomplish that. In mv tour among
the Turkish baths of New York I
have seen several thousand men adorned
only by thin rubber key bands around
their necks. I have seen not one well
formed man, and the only approach to it I
discovered was an attendant whose frame
was well knit, though not particularly
graceful. All the strong men of good gon
ernl development were bow-legged, and the
straight limbed men had no flesh on their
bones. The broad shouldered men wore
hollow chested, and the men with good
chests had no muscular development of legs
or arms. Then there were the fat mon,
awful to look upon. It was depressing to
see such people, and nothing but a full
length mirror saved me from the crime of
the Pharisee.
It may lie claimed that those who visit
Turkish’ baths are mostly invalids, and that,
consequently t he standard of physical excel
lence ci Hid not be high, but I do not believe
t hat this is the case. In my opinion the ma
jority of those whom I saw were there sim
ply to enjoy the luxury of the bath and to
obtain its ai l in enduring the hot weather
Koine of the fat men probably came for the
purpose of reducing their flesh, but the per
centage is small. The fact of the matter Is
that W men out of 100 are so ill-formed as to
b- absolutely a painful spectacle to any one
who admires the human form divine. As lo
women 1 am an agnostic an 1 a pessimist.
Common sense would help them, but its
coming is merely an Utopian dream.
It is a mistake to suppose that an ordinary
bathing costume shows a man as lio is. It
frequently makes him look worse; some
times better, but never as be is. Ordinary
clothing is worse, of course. 1 watihed two
men whom 1 bad seen in the bath to observe
how they would look in street dram. The
result was as I expected. The straight but
lean man, whose muscles seemed hardly
capable of holding him together, appeared
of elegant figure on the street, while the at
tendont I have spoken of looked clumsy and
his trousers couldn't be made to hang prop
erly around his ankles, liocausc he had a
cal f to his leg.
New York is probably no worse than the
average city in this matter. Certainly there
is a need of reform. What can bo done?
Nothing for the present generation, but a
great deal for the next. If a child is in
telligently watched from its earliest youth
up and taught the proper use of its linilis
uud muscles much may be done to counter
act hereditary tendencies. There is a large
association of Germans in this city, one of
THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, AUGUST 15, 1887.
whose worthiest objects is just this. They
propose to teach a child physically and men
taliy; to make him walk properly, carrying
his arms as he should, breathe scientifically,
exercise judiciously, and eat what is good
for him. This work will be done in the new
turn hall when it is built, and no structure
could bo erected in a better cause.
Charles AV. Hooke.
The Story of a Lost Watch.
From the Philadelphia Call.
“For some time,” said the Doctor, “I have
been attending a colored man on AYood street
who is confined to his bed by a chronic dis
order. There was no money in the case, but
a true physician never thinks of that, and I
kept pegging away at my man until 1 got
him on the turn. Then lie fell back again
and I begun to think his mind was diseased
—that is, that he was brooding over some
thing, and that plays the mischief with
medicine. You take the case of a beautiful
girl who loses her hair from fever. Her re
covery is retarded for weeks if you give her
a looking-glass.
“AA'ell, I kept quiet and made myself
friendly, ami one day tho secret came out.
He waitdH until he was alone with me, and
then he asked me to go to a closet in the
room and hunt up a black stocking. I did
so and handed it to him, and he took there
from something that looked like a bundle of
rags. Removing the rags disclosed a roll of
paper tied with old twine, and inside was a
piece of chamois and inside of that a beauti
ful gold watch. I had .been watching these
proceedings with considerable interest, and
when 1 saw the watch I jumped at once to
the conclusion that my patient was about
to make restitution for a robbery. I was
mistaken.
“ ‘Ypu’s away off, boss,’ said he with a
smile, as ho e vidently read my thoughts.
‘I didn’t stole that watch; I found ’um. I
picked up that watch ’bout a year ago on
the corner .of Thirteenth and Market, near
AVanqymaker’s, and I want to give ’um
hack before I die.’ The story looked fishy
but it all turned out naturally enough when
I questioned him. He found the watch and
brought it home and told no one about it for
fear of being robbed. He didn’t advertise
it because lie had no money to pay for the
advertisement, and he didn’t read the pa
pers to see if a reward had been offered
simply because neither he nor any of his
family could read. So he hid the watch in
a closet and did nothing at all.
“I examined the watch and saw that it
was a lady’s watch and valuable. On the
inside Of the case was engraved a date anil
tho name ‘Sarah Matilda Shreve.’ Hero
was a clew. ‘AVhat do you want me to do
with this?’ I asked. He replied that I was
to find the owner anil return the w-atch with
or without a reward, and he seemed actually
grateful as I carried it away.
“AA r hen I returned to my office I got out
the directory and wrote a letter to every
Shreve in the city, about a half dozen, de
tailing the circumstances and asking lor
Sarah Matilda. Tho next day I got a letter
from a Shreve telling me that the owner of
the watch was now the wife of a prominent
citizen—never mini! his name—and lived at
Seventeenth ami Pino. That afternoon I
called on the lady, told mv story anil she
identified the watch beyond question ami
told how sho lost it in coming from Broad
street station.
“She was gratified at its recovery and
surprised when she heard where it had been
for a year, and I am happy to say that her
gratitude did not stop at words. The next
day she called to see my patient and loft a
liberal present behind her, and she has been
a regular caller ever since. The result Is
that my man is getting well, and it looks
now as if his niodt*st future was assured. I
tell you this story just to illustrate what
good policy honesty is. He might have
realized S3O by selling the watch, but he
resisted the temptation and he will realize
ten times that amount now. I think there
is a good sound moral in the story.”
Senator Evarts’ New Farm.
Washington Special to Albany Journal.
The greatest surprise of all the real estate
transactions in and around tho national
capital is the purchase, just completed, of a
tract of 300 acres by William M. Evarts,
the great attorney and senior Senator from
the State of New York in the upper branch
of Congress. The senior Senator has a
hobby for terrestrial proprietorship on this
mundane sphere. His new acquisition is
located about 12 miles by drive south of
AVashington and adjoins the government
tract of about 400 acres which abuts on the
Potomac river, and upon which, on the river
front, is located that grim old stone-bas
tioned construction of the beginning of the
century, Fort AVashington. This is the
landing to the place on the river, the Evarts
estate being alwnit a mile distant and does
not touch on the main stream, but enjoys
riparian privileges upon a picturesque estu
ary of the Potomac just above Fort AVash
ington, known as Swan creek.
What puzzles the farmers of Prince George
county is what the Senator from New York
has in view in purchasing in their particular
locality. It is also among the stories in cir
culation that the Senator intends to procure
an estate of at least 1,000 acres. On the tract
which he has already purchased there are
no material improvements, though all around
it and extending up and down the river arc
to bo seen the manor houses of the lordly
domains of tho old Maryland families of 50
to 150 years ago, notably about five miles
below that of the Maryland branch of the
Marshall family, now Known as Marshall
Hall, owned by Col. Joe McKihbcn, of
Chambersburg, Pa., aud a popular summer
resort. Directly opposite and above lie the
former domains or Washington at Mount
Vernon and the Fairfaxes, which were in
their prime a century ago.
