Seuenty five invited giiests were entertained iri a inner befitting the hospit.ility oi- the host and hostess. Misses Emma and MargaretEdwards acted as ushers. The b«*ide was aitired in an elegant black silk, nnd presented au appearance that did ample justice to the occasion. The dining room which was handsomely deoomt^d with floral decorations, was a model of taste and beauty, The table was trimmed in harmony with the ochsr decorations and fairly laughed a welcome of delight at sight of the guests, who bravely and williugly relieved it of a gv-?at portion of its choice and dainty burden, Iu addition to the list of presents glvon at the wedding, were a number of valuable presents given at the hc-ms of the groom. In the evening the young ladies of MlCordsville serenaded the yonng couple with songs, aud a most delightful time was enjoyed by all. Mr. and Mrs. Vail will make their home with the grooms parents, and Mr. Vail will engage in farming with his father. That peace and longevity may attend them is the wish of their many friends aud schoolmates.

Jiieyclist Accidentally Shoots HIiuhoIG. Washington, Oct. 9.—Oscar (J.

THE TELEGRAPHIC "THIRTY."

How t!i« Cipher, Whitu I.- Xow Universal^ itl Its Ori£i«iI attended a funeral the other day where there was a lovely flower piece with the figures "30" in the center, The decease.! had been familiar all his. lifo with that signal, having been connected with telegraph or newspaper business for nearly 80 yc?r«. and yet I doubt if ever be or any one who contributed to the flower piece knew or dreamed how 30 came to mean anything, especially finis, or the end.

As a part in telegraph history I will explain how this signal, which has come to mean so much, had its origin. Like a great many other expressions, it was started accidentally, as it were. In the infancy of the telegraph business dispatches were sent paid or collect, many of them abbreviated in telegraphing, and all newspaper dispatches were not only abbreviated, but sent collect. There were no news agencies then, as now, and papers had friends in ail the towns, who were authorized to send them dispatches to Lo called for. I Every biginner in lii-3 art of telegraphy was given a book of abbreviaI tions and .signals, which he had to commit to memory and practice till lis be-

PURITAN'ICAL LAV/S.

IIOY7 Thfy Roniui Up Debtors lii Cultured Boston.

"Just wait till I catch hi in in Boston. Then I'll make, hir.i come to tho center," remarked an angry man tho other day while roasting a theatrical manager v-.iio owed him a few hundred do]Ia:s fur services rendered. I told him thai 1 supposed lie would then clap tho debtor into the Charles: Street jail. "That's jit si what I will do if I ever catch him there, yon bet." And then tho mad actor explained how easy it was to get even with people of that sorb in tho Hub. No matter what the debt, nor where or how it M*as contracted, all one has to do is to enter a complaint aud that settles it. If one who owes is averse to notoriety, he'll hardly take the poor debtor's oath, which releases him for a certain number of years, but does not wipe out his obligations, but will linger in the bastile until ho can interest his friends or realize on his collateral and settle.

I know several New Yorkers who liavo run against creditors in the bean burg and have suffered. Somo joke about thoir incarceration and the questions put to them during the process of administering the poor debtor's oath, but most all agree that the Boston law is a puritanical provision that should be materially amended. Bostouians who are dodging process servers are agitating a change that will permit them to pay up on the installment- plan instead of being forced to cash in tho full amount or remain a guest of the Charles street hotel. If such a law was on tho New York statute books and was enforced here—well, the Tombs or some other prison would be holding hundreds who now look as if they owned the town instead of merely owing the townspeople. —New York Letter in Pittsburg Dispatch.

PoinoniuK by Tinned Food.

Some light is thrown by The Lancet upon the mysterious cases of poisoning by tinned food which from time to time aro reported. They are believed to be due to neglect of the caution against eating tinned foods that have been exposed to tho air for some time after being opened. The exact manner in which poisonous substances, technically known as "ptomaines," are generated so rapidly is not known with certainty, but the fact that they are produced iu sufficient quantity to cause very grave symptoms of poisoning have been brought out in a multitude of instances. In one well known case the first half of the contents of a tin of lobster was consumed with no ill effect, but the rest a few days afterward proved extremely poisonous. It is suggested that as a safeguard manufacturers might hibel the tins with some such notice as "The contents of this tin are perfectly wholesome when eaten fresh from the tin and afford good food, but tho public is advised not to expose the contents for any length of time to the injurious influences of the atmosphere." The Lancet writer even goes so far as to suggost that some such warning might be insisted on by the legislature.—London News.

Where Wo Are Going.

I find the great thing in this world is not so much whore we stand as in what direction wo are moving. To reach the port of heaven we must sail sometimes with tho wind and sometimes against it, but we must sail and no1drift, nor lie at anchor.—Oliver Wendell Holmes.

His Money All In Stocks.

ine::nt "collect pay at the other end." Whether a news dispatch or common business message, if not prepaid, the signal HO was attached. As all press di.-patches were paid for where received, they ali had sJO.ut the end. !So when nevs agencies be'ran 1hn?vwork the signal was retained, for they were still paid for where received. I This sigi.ui h. cuius in these days to be a universal finis to all press dispatches, private, special and general, I and a secondary meaning, or perhaps, I better, a legsndary meaning attaches itself as "the end" and is a proper and beautiful expression cf the iiiiis of a telegraph opmater or any other person,

Put the bread and cream in a small saucepan and cook until a smooth paste ifc formed (it will take two minutes on the back of tho range, where it should bo put aud where it will hardly bubble). Take this pasto f':om the fire and add the seasoning, chi(°%^ and the white of the egg well beaten., -Mix all well and set away to cool.

Dry the oysters on a soft towel and season them well with salt and pepper. Now roll them in fine bread ciumbs and lay them on a large dish. Divide the forcemeat into 12 parts and spread evenly on 12 oysters. Lay the other 1.2 oysters on the first dozen, pressing ge?itly with tho aid of tho knife to make them stick.

Put into a deep pinto the yolk of the egg left from the forcemeat and one whole egg and beat well with a fork. Season with salt. Dip the stuffed oysters in this egg and then roll them in bread crumbs, being careful to havo every part covered with the egg and crumbs. When all are doue place thein in a frying basket and cook until they aro a rich brown in fat at the temperature of about 400 degrees. It will take about one minute and a half to fry them. Serve with Madeira sauce. Tbe stuffed oysters may be kept in a cool placo for several hours •yiu?.

For instance, an exchango rolatcs that little Annette, who had boen taken to an evening concert for tho first timo in her life, was asked by her aunts, on her return home, to give her impassions. "Oh, aunties," she exclaimed, "thoro was a lady who screamed becauso she had forgotten her sloeves and a waitor was playing on tho piano all tho time!"—• Youth's Companion.
