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. Bkthy O'Dowd. 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. Charles J. Rosebavlt. 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.
