stairs in the rooms formerly occu
pied by the Masonic lodge, where
larger and more commodious quart
ers have been fitted up. Patrons
of the paper will please observe

SgSEHIOUS OX OBSEQUIES.
. The editor of a Pennsylvania
paper called the Blade some time
since, in writting op a marriage in
high life in the city where it is
published, used the words "marri
age obsequies" in referring to the
ceremony. Of course the friends
of the newly married pair objected
to associating the happy event
with a word usually applied only
to funeral occasions, and one of
them took the editor to task in a
communication.
"We are accustomed," writes
this correspondent, "to look for
better English than this from the
editor of our leading county paper.
'Marriage obsequies' is not good
English. 'Funeral obsequies' is,
of course, proper, andjis used by
such authors as Nathaniel Haw
y.
,
thorne, Washington Irving, Koberln
Fulton and others, but never 'mar
riage obsequies.' What you Jdouot
less meant to write was 'marriage
nuptials.' "
In replying to this the editor of
"The Blade" finds himself some
what at a loss for words. He be
lieves himself right, but has not
the authorities at hand to prove it
"We never intend," he writes, "to
admit anything to the columns of
'The Blade which is not good Eng
lish, but we may possibly have
been betrayed into it this time.
We still bel'eve ourselves correct
in the use of the phrase, though
unfortunately Tea cannot prove it at
this moment. We have in cur
office ,a large dictionary, the largest
size made, but owing to an awk
ward occurrence it is not available
ior the particular question. We
will explain : One day last fa!l we
were writing an editorial cn a
scientific subject. Wishing to use
the word 'obsidian,' we took down
our dictionary to learn the exact
orthography. The book was lying
open on a chair near us while we
transcribed the word. At this
point our Gne coon-dog, given to us
by the genial Sam French, hap
pened to come in. He is a good
dog for coons, but the greatest fool
of a beast to have around when a
man is doing literary jrork which
we ever saw. The dog went over
where our compositor was at work
and, seeing that he was vigorously
masticating something, began
looking up at him and wagging his
tail furiously. The compositor was
really chewing tobacco which he
had borrowed from us, but the fool
dog judged that it was doughnuts
or other food, and thought to pet
some of it by thus working him
self into the affections of the com
positor. An open ten-pound can
of black news ink "stood oy the
stove warming. About the third
wag the dog slashed the end of his
tail into the ink. We rebuked him
from our seat by our desk, where
upon the miserable beast assumed
a conciliatory air and came up to
us matin? a feeble effort to smooth
it over; but in bringing his' tail
around to one side to show us that
it was not so very inky, what
should he do but drag it across the
open page of our dictionary, com
pletely obliterating the word
'obsequies' and a dozen others
both above and below it! AH
efforts to clean the page have been
unavailing. Therefore we cannot
look the word up and report to our
valued correspondent whether we
were right or wrong. But we still
think that we were right. . We
shall investigate the matter when
we go to Harrisburg in March.''
The experience of the Blade
editor, thjugh somewhat novel, is
not altogether exceptional, judging
from appearances. Probably that !

tic animal, is rampant in

The German Emperor has be
come so impressed with the fact
that the republican form of govern
ment is tn tne ascendent, mat in
his speech opening the session of
the Prussian Diet, he makes a
special mention of the wants and
interests of the working men of his
empire. When as aristocratic and
absolute a monarch as is the Ger
man Emperor, devotes the larger
share of his annual speech to the
working men of his realm it is a
pretty good sign that the working
men's form of government, the re
public, is encroaching very rapidly
upon the old monarchial institu
tions.
