The old custom (fill prevail.« at wed
ling, in Alttaoa for the friend* of the
groom to claim the bride', garter for a
tali-nian or trophy. This part of tlx
oeimiony generally take, place at tlx
wi Iding meal. Formerly tbe bride « i-
"bl ged to allow one of the young men
« take off her garter in the preseii'-eof
all the guests,
i
but in our more prudish
times si ihe takes it off herself, handing
it to the one best entitled to it. The
garter is then cut into several pieces,
every guest receding his portion. The
ladies wear it on the left breast, the men
•en boutonniere ” All guests wearthi*
token during the festivities. Recently
the niece of the burgomaster ofOrtache-
beiler. Miss Zimmermann, was married
to a Mr. Lerbs, of Ullenheini. During
the dessert the garter was cut and di
vided among the guests. It was red,
•vliitv and blue.
Thus each of the
guests was decorated with th«* French
eolors. Some of them promenaded the
streets, and in th«* evening appeared in
the cafes still wearing the trophy. Sev
eral of the guests, among them the
tavern-keeper, G«’i,t of Bchlettetadt,
wore the nttle ribbon next day on a
railroad trip
A conductor, feeling
himself called upon to make some
unpleasant
remarks,
Mr.
Geist
retorted
with
abusive
epithet*.
The matter was reported to the
prosecuting attorney. The official saw
ill the wearing of French colors upon
the streets and in public places (and
more especially the day after the cele-
bration ot a French national festival), a
political <li'moii*tratioii; and
conse
quently eausad the arrest of »JI th«* par
ticipants in the ivedilin r dinner. The
tell culprits were brought bef«>re the po
lice magistrate at Uoltuar. Singularly
enough, the charge was brought under
.-in old French decree which, under the
Republic, wa* probably issued against
royalist maiteuvers, prohibiting tlx*
wearing or exhibition of seditious em
blem- emler severe penalties. Mr. Geist
was charged in addition with insulting
an officer.
r. All the accused admitted
haiiug worn the little ribbon,, without,
however, noticing its colors, but pro
tested against the assertion that a po
litical demonstration was intended. The
prosecuting attorney, however, insisted
upon the point, anti ti mantled the pun
ishment of the accuse«! under the law
of 1*16. The defense claimed that tlx*
wearing of a ribbon in tlx* button-hole,
espe«*ially upon such an occasion as a
wedding, '-"ttl'l not l>e punishable un
der a law '«gatnst tlx* wearjug of sedi
tious emblem« The magistrate, mole
sensible than the pro*t«*cuting attorney,
sided with the defense, declaring that
lie could not see the violation of the law
in question, mid dheharg«-«! the accused.
Thus ended this queer attempt of en
forcing German patriotism in the <>1<I
French province of Alsace. — A )’. Il< -

several yards from every piece of goods

TLe spscisl wunder at the royal ar
-enal at Woolwich is a monster wea|>oi
iitcuded to tire projectiles or toqiedoe
nider water. It is the invention of
'aptain Kricason, the well-known scion
ie American, and it was made in tin
United States, partly under the super
vision of Lieutenant Glad.stone, of hoi
Majesty's navy, who was sent over fol
li.egim, and has now brought it to Enjj
land. It reached the arsenal only the
seek, and now lies at the inspeeliui
biancli ot the royal gnu factories.
h lienee, after some preliminary tests, it
will be sent on board ship, probably

Ums of steel are used iu the construe
lion of the gun. which is thirty fei
long, and has a bore of eighteen and a
hull inches. It is a breech-loader, and
uluses at the stern by an arrangement
of a very simple and effectual character
much resembling that of the great guns
which were displayed at the inventions
exhibition. The vent, which is axial, is
sealed, and said to be effectual in pre
venting tlie i scape of powder gases.
The projectile measures twonty-Iive
feet, which is only five feet less than the
gun, and is ganged to pass freely along
the bore, which is unritled. It is hol
low, and notwithstanding its great
length weighs only one ton.
The pro
posal is to tit the gun in the bow of a
ship nine feet under the water line, so
as Io tire straight ahead from the cut
water. A diaphragm of india-rubber
is fixed over the inuz.z.le to exclude the
water, but is blown away at the first
puff of the discharge. The projectile is
inserted from the rear and is stopped by
a pin a few inches short of the dia
phragm, for it has a short rod projecting
from its nose, which is to act by percus
sion on the charge within, and must lie
protected from all risks of premature
explosion. lt->.af<ly al th is stage ia, how
ever, to some extent guaranteed by the
action of a stiongspring which prevents
the rod from being driven buck bv uni
force short of a thousand pound«. A
charge of twenty pounds of |Miwdcr is
all that is thought necessary for pro
pulsion, and tine being placed behind
the projectile, the breech ia closed, and
the gun is ready for tiring. The only
oilier requisite is soni' ilnng to aim nt:
and when n hostile ship can be goi
within convenient distance, the mon
ster gun lets lly. It is asserted that n
range three iiiiik I i rilyards under eater
may be relied upon, 1*1 it is considered
doubtful whether the shut can overcome
the resistance of the water and retain
an i ff.. ti* e si riking power for half the
distance. The inventor, howevor, has
tried his device, and lie save he ought
to know. To preserve the latcmal po
sition and uniform depth of his sub
marine niissle lie has weighed it to the
gravity of water, and, while he keeps
one side under by the jireponderanee of
weight, he has a steeling plate on the
upper side which opens only after leav
ing the mouth of tin* gun, and nets as a
rudder in keeping the projectile in its
oui'se. Until the gnn is tried the au
thorities are loath to express an opinion
upon it, lint it is regarded at least as an
honest attempt to establish a new prin
ciple in gunnery, in which itisqnito un
