IVeddinc A notable wedding was celebrated here on New Year's eve, a brief account of which will he of interest to many society people of mis anu lutei.or cities. The principals were Dr. William Ellery liiiggs oi Sacramento and Miss (.race Ride- out, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Norman D. Hideout. , gflt.was a quiet family wedding, celebrated at the residence of the bride's parents, on the corner of Washing.* n and Gough streets. More than usual ration was evoked by the decorations, which were magically ef- fective. The hall was festooned with dark .\u25a0hands of lobage and mussed with reed- grasses, with here and there a w;reath of delicate chicory plant. .-The warmth and sedate hues here made n mist effective antithesis io the scene in .the parlors. Mi s s Hates had lavished her taste in producing the wintry eifect there. Frosted boughs glittering icicles and •feathery enowflakes combined to form a •wtmderful little bay-window bower, in the center cf which depended with striking effect? a peifect wreath of la France roses, the fresh piuk petals thrown into vivid re- lief by their snowy eutourace. The friends of the family, including many from Sacramento ar.d Marysyiile, assembled in the rear parlor, which was prettily trimmed iv yellow, the llowers being chiefly chrysanthemums. About 9 o'clock tlte or- chestra played a wedding mater, and the haypy-lpair.< advanced to the i.-icle bower, r. receded by two pretty little cousins of the bride— Miss Helen and Master Justice Greeley. The bride's robe was poul de seine, trimmed w.th rare point d'Alencon; her ornaments were diamonds. The brief ceremony was performed by 1.-v. Dr. James of tha City College, on Haight street, a very old friend of the family. - \u25a0 Amid the usual blithe strains of the wed** ding march _: atulatien. were afterward .proffered the happy pair, and an elaborate supper enjoyed, The dining-room, by the \u0084Y_.y, with its dark woodwork paneling and terra coita tinted walls, was strikingly [decorated with oranges amid their proper foliage. Later, there was dancing, and the advent of the new year was not forgotten in the happy festivities. Among these was the cutting of the bride-cake, when the fateful [ximt fell to Miss Stratton. The billiard-room, downstairs, had to be < to the presents, which entirely hied that Bpacious apartment. They in- e;udrd a. creat deal of plate, Limoges and ;fcevres services, and art gems ol every con- ceivable kind. . Ona interesting present not in the billiard- rooui was a planter-cast, iif.size, represent- ing the bead cf the bride in medallion i.rm, in relief. The artist and donor was her cousin, Miss Alice Hideout, the young sculptress who lias recently won such honors by her groups in Chicago, submitted Sri. competition for the World's Fair llnild- The young genius borrowed a photo- graph, and finished the cast ia a day, and both workmanship and likeness were voted perfect by those pic-cut.

The hoosc-decoratlons were charmingly ..effective, being principally hollyand berries. § A delicious supper, followed by dancing, | brought the pleasant affair.to a close. § Mi.il.i '..iic_n an Tableaux on Turk Street. New Year's was celebrated at the re.i- dence of Mrs. li. C. Porter, 116 Eddy street, by an evening devoted to Shakespeare. Elaborate preparations had been made, and the extensive parlors were beautifully deco- rated with art and floral gems. The stage was supplied with calcium lights and effects, which helped to make more Impressive the Shakespearean tab- leaux rendered.

THEY ELOPED. A Kem.rkablf Ca»_ of Love Sur_-_o____ti__£ All <»•\u25a0-: .< i. -. The usually quiet little town of Millville, Mass., is preatly stirred up over a remarka- ble case of love surmounting all obstacles and ending with an elopement and mar- riage. The principals In the case are W. H. McCormick and Miss Alma \u25a0). Wood, both of Hipkintnn. 11" is •_'. years old and she 17. The couple were married in the parlors of the Clarendon Hotel Saturday evening by James O'Reilly, Justice of the Peace, the rem my being witnessed by several people. Miss Wood is a relative of ex-Gov- ernor Clallin, «nd her grandfather, Bain- bridge Claflui, is one of lioukin'oii' . promi- nent and wealthy citizens. He has held many prominent town offices. McCormick is a shoemaker and proverbially poor, though of excellent character and reputa- tion. Two years ago Miss Wood's parents forbade her to have an-,- relations with Mc- Cormick, but the fiat did not have the de- sired effect and the lovers continued to meet by stealth. Finding it was impossible to separate them. Miss Wood's parents sent her to Cashing* Academy at Ashburnham, where she remained a year, the young peo- ple keeping up a regular correspondence, She had been horn o ilya short time when another attempt was made to break v,> the intimacy, and Miss Wood was locked up in the attic of her father's house, where she was kept for four days. She found a piece of twine in toe attic, which she used us a mode of conveyance to get notes to and from McCormick. After four days (he was re- leased from her imprisonment, promising to give up McCormick. As the promise was extorte -1 from her under duress she had no intention of keeping it and at once wrote to her fervent lover to meet her. Some two moot!.- ag >, McCormick says, her father called on him and took bim back to the girl's boos?^ seating him in the parlor. The "old man" stepped outside for a moment and presently returned with a horsewhip. He told McCormick he could have his choice of going to a Justice and yetting married or taking a horse-whipping. McCormick would take neither. The girl was again lucked up and kept in confinement three days, v. ten she escaped and went to her lover. On De- cember sth she was again locked up and for two weeks kept a prisoner. She war. then taken out and severely horse-whipped. This made her mad and she determined to leave heme, She sent a sots to McCormick and he met her by agreement and yiey v.ere married.

(New York: Toe Cen- tury Publishing Company. Sixth volume, 104_ pp., £10.) The sixth and last volume of that great work "The Century Dictionary" has just been issued. It commences with tiie word "Strub" and continues to the close, and completes one of the most stupendous literary productions ever pro- duced within a limited time. The preface Issued with the lust part is dated May 1, 1889, the supplementary note to the pre lace issued .with the la. i pert; October l, 189 L Between I bo** dates bus been published, in twenty-four parts which have followed one another with almost unchanical regularity, a dictionary of 70b. large quarto pages, con- taining, from the printers point of view, two-third:, as much matter as tho Encyclo- paedia Uritanniea, and including about 1500.000 definitions of over 215.000 words, 50,-00 defined phrases, 300,060 illustrative quotation.) and 8000 cuts. The labor involved in this achievement is enormous. To havo published any serious work of such size in that time would have been a remarkable exploit; the fact that the work is a dic- tionary, wliich was planned on an ideal be- fore regarded as unattainable, and which has practically attained this ideal, makes the result little less than extraordinary. To form a faint idea of what the making of this hook meant, one has but to consider the difficulty of collecting such disconnected matter (for tiie entirely "new" words, defi- nitions and quotations in the "Century" al- most outnumber all that the dictionaries which preceded it contain), the care in- volved in the statement and verification of millions of more or less Isolated facts, and the labor of producing, with such variety of material, a typographically faultless page, lt is hardly necessary to say that this wonderful rapidity of publication was possible only by reason of the long, elab- orate and thorough preparatory work done on the whole book before a page of it was sent to the press. Bo careful was this prep- aration, so methodical and well ordered the execution of tin* plan, thai punctuality and rapidity were never allowed to degenerate Into haste, lt should also be added that the dictionary could have been produced only by a force exceptionally well qualified for the task; under a division of the labor by which each received the part for li .eh he was best fitted; with an intel- ligent discrimin#tion between work which could be done rapidly and that which could not, and with untiring energy on the pert of those responsible for its progress. The creators of the dictionary have been guided throughout by a clear and sympa- thetic appreciation of the demand of con- temporary science and practical life, and have striven to make it, in its way, an em- bodiment of the knowledge and of the high- est thought and aspirations of the nineteenth century. The sixth volume contains its full share of important and interesting articles. The definitions of sun and sun-spot— by Professor C. A. Young— their engrav- ings illustrate well its encyclopedic rich- ness, as do also such articles as those under transit, temple, swallow, sub-, substance, trot (withits reproduction of instantaneous photographs by Muybridge), trust, etc The volume also exhibits the usual large Dum- ber of admirable cuts, such as those under tabard, testudo, tiger, toboggan, tomb, tube (pneumatic), tunnel, typesetting- machine, Venus, victory, Videstrelda, Vidua, Vidu- iua_. It closes with a list of over 3000 authors and authorities cited in the course of the work, and with what is, perhaps, the most interesting single thing it contains— a re- print if the list of amended spellings rec- mended by the English Philological So- ciety and the American Philological Asso- eialion, headed by an introduction wliich leaves no doubt where the edit of the dictionary stand as regards spelling-reform. While this list, which has as yet almost no actual usage to support it. and was indeed intended only as a step toward something more complete, could uot properly be in- corporated in the body of the dictionary, Professor Whitney believes that no lexicog- rapher should ignore it. No one who desires to keep abreast of the times can do so without having In his li- brary this mostexceilent book, which brings down to date everything that one may wish to know about the English language.

This is a poem of eighty-live stanzas, in which is told tho story oi Gertrude, a Jewish out- cast, who. diiven from England, linds her- self among barbarians in the north, and is about to be offered as a sacrifice when the chief comes to ncr rescue.

The poem possesses a great ileal of literary merit, and it goes far to sustain the many complimentary things that have been said of '.!.. young id}' ability a. a poetess. Homilies of Science —By Dr. Paul Cams, (Chicago: Tne Open Court Pub- lishing C nipany. Cloth, gilt top. 'AJO pp.. Si 50.) This is a volume consisting of a col- lection of short editorials which originally appeared hi "The Open Court." 'J hey dis- cuss religious, moral and social questions from the standpoint of what might iefly bt* characterized as the religion ot Science. The "Homilies il Scleuce" are not hostile toward the dished religions of tradi- tional growth, but are hostile only toward the dogmatic conception of these religions; nor are they hostile toward freethougbt. This book will interest a large number of people. " The Duchess of Powsyland " Is the first number in Cue new year that is added to the Boston series, known as "The Tucker Library." is-ued by Benjamin lh Tucker of that •v. This novel is by Grant Allen, who was awarded a prize of £5000 for bis powerful work of fiction, "What'- Bred in tiie Bone." It. is \u25a0 captivating story of the career of an American girl who married a title, having become united by matrimony with the first rank of the British peerage, It is well written, entertaining and sensa- tional, It involves a charge of murder brought against the Duchess, who is ac- cused of the murder, by poison, of her hus- band. Upon the trial It was made to ap- pear that the accusation was groundless, and that the Duke bad died by his own hand. "A Southern Heritage" is a title of a new novel written by William Horace Brown, and added to the "Vanity Fair Series " by Edward Brandns it Co. of New York, the publishers. In this book Mr. Brrwn, who has already made a go* d name for himself in the "Staves of Folly," gives a very charming and highly entertaining story of Southern life during tho war times and immediately thereafter. The charm of the novel, aside from its literary merit, is that the htorv is told in a most pleasing manner, and holds tbe attention of the reader from first to last. "Mademoiselle Ixe," that bright little story published by Charles 11. Sergei A Co. of Chicago, is to be translated into French to appear as a feuilleton in the Debats of Pans. Arrangements are also in progress lor a dramatic version of it,both for En- gland and America. Magazines and Oilier -Voles. With the January number "The Magazine of American History" opens the twenty- seventh volume of a periodical ' that is so well known that it needs no booming.. The character of the articles that have been presented in the past are a guarantee for what will be offered in the future. All its articles have been remarkable for literary merit, Interest and accuracy, the great point in the presentation of historical matter. This issue is notably good, and among the many articles that are given are: The leading paper by Hon. Arthur Harvey, ihe eminent President of the Canadian In- stitute, which is the first part of "A Critical and Common-sense View of the Enterprise of Christopher Columbus," uniquely illustrated. "The Secret Societies of Princeton University," by Thomas Hotel) Us Jr., illustrating the old and new Whig Halls at Princeton. "A Short-lived American State," an admirable contribu- tion from the Louisiana historian, Henry E. Chambers, and the question, "Was America Discovered by the Chinese?" is ably discussed by Rev. Dr. Glover. In the January "Arena" Hamlin Gar- latin's miich-talked-of novel of the modern West opens brilliantly. The publishers of "The Arena" claim that this will be "the Ureal American novel," and certainly it bids fair to be by far the strongest work that has yet come from the pen of the brill- iant "novelist of the West," though this is saying much, as those who have read "Main-Travelled Bonds" and "Jason Ed- wards" will admit. This* issue also con- tains strong papers by Alfred Basse! Wal- lace on "Himan Progress: Past and Future"; Professor A. N. Jannari-, Ph. D., of the University of Gieece, Athens, on "Mohammedan Marriage and Life"; Henry Wood on "The Universality of Law"; ex- Governor Lionel A. Sheldon, on "Louisiana and the Levees"; D. G. Watts, on "Walt Whitman"; Charles Schroder, on "What Is Buddhism?" and several other able papers. "The Arena" fully maintains its brilliant reputation. . One of the most important and absorbing political problems of the hour, "the pardon- ing power," is discussed with profound In- terest by David B. Hill, Governor of New York, in the "North American Review" for January. Itshould be exercised, he thinks, with the sob* aim to the reformation of the offender. The writer suggests that a signifi- cant in titer, thus far overlooked,' is an effort to encourage the convict's reform after lie has.served his term. The prison bird now finds the world turned against him, and every inclination to reform is frozen by his cold reception. He can get no work; he must starve or steal, and again the prison door }awns before him. "Who will start this good work?" he asks. The January number of "Lippineolt's Magazine" is marked by several new fea- tures. The complete novel is by Young E. Allison, formerly of the "Louisville Courier- Journal," an experienced journalist. It is entitled "The Passing of Major Kilgore," and from the sure, easy and practical wav in which he writes' it might he bis tenth rather than his first effort in the line of fic- tion. This novel contains a graphic picture of the humors and woes of a newspaper office. The story is interesting throughout, and not lacking in elements of excitement, pathos ami unexpectedness; the character- drawing is full of shrewd insight and kindly humor, while the style is natural delight- mi. . n yp. The Forum Publishing Company has probably never issued a number so con- spicuous for interest, brilliancy and ability as the January number. It fairly teems from cover to cover with able discussions of live national questions, and is a mine of rich Information. A powerful Indictment of the Louisiana lottery, by Judge French McGlain, 1. ads the list. Dr. F. 11. Geffcken discusses "The Pope and the Future of Papacy," and tho Rev. Or. C. A. Briggs has given an able paper on "Theological Education and Its Needs." "The Secret Ballot" is a valuable paper by Joseph Bishop, and Mrs. Van Rensselaer gives an excellent article on "American Homes." The January number of " Harper's Monthly Magazine" marks an era In its publication, for it is the five hundredth num- ber that has been issued. There is no peri- odical that has been published for so long a time as this one has that haa maintained its interest as has "Harper's Magazine." The issue of this month is an excellent one, both as to text and illustrations. Among the many very interesting tides offered may be mentioned "Canada's El Dorado," by Julian Ralph; "Our Exposition at Chicago" and "Charles- the Second" by Walter Bes- ant. Those Yvho are interested in the science of antiquities will find a treat in the latest Is- sue of the "American Antiquarian," pub- lished by S. D. Feet at Avon, 111. Itis filled with matter of great interest on sub- jects of the long ago, ami it is instructive not only to archaeologists, but to the general reader. The leading article i- one by the publisher on the religion of the mound- builders, and this is followed by a very in- teresting article on "Y_ma, or the Votive Pictures in Japan," by W. E. DeForest. The January number of the "Century" has for frontispiece a spirited picture of Charles Francois Gounod, the world re- nowned composer. In another portion of this interesting periodical there is a very entertaining sketch of the composer. The leading article in this issue is an illustrated one, on "The Jews in New fork," care- fully written ami full of information. In addition to this, the magazine contains a great amount of bright magazine articles, all of which are of the best. William A. Coffin, in the first of a group of papers on "American illustrations of To-day," in the January "Scribner," says of the decorative part of Kenyon Cox's Work: "The pen drawings fur initial let- ters fin 'The Blessed Damozel'] are by long odds the best things of the kind that have come from an American artist. They Show great oiigiuality of conception and a Knowl- edge of the principles of design that very few artists possess, and a delicate though virile sense of beauty in their execution." The January number, which is the holiday one of "Outing," conies in a pretty white cover with the litre printed in dark blue and gold. The magazine, as usu.il, contain* a great deal that is of value and interest to all who delight in reasonable outdoor athletic sports, aud in addition has a good Christmas story, entitled "The Bear's Head Brooch," by Ernest Incersoll, and a spirited sketch that militiamen will enjoy. One of the attractive magazines for Jan- uary is "The Cosmopolitan," which is .Mcd with a variety of highly interesting and well-chosen articles, prominent among winch are "The Columbus Portraits," with illustrations; "The Salon," descriptive of the grand picture gallery of Paris, and "Old New i' oik," by James Grant Wilson. The eighth chapter of the Life and Works of Mark Twain " Is the feature In the January issue of "Library and Studio." This issue also contains several bright short sketches. _Al" y '' THE 11MS 1) OF FATE. Ho Had Killed His ltiv.il and .Viet With a Horrible Death. A searching party that had ben two days looking for Louis Vilmas, a rich old miser, who had been last seen in New Albany, Ind.. on Christmas evening, found him on Saturday night dead in a small creek in the woods near his house, which was on a bill near Mooresville. Connected with his death is a strange story. Vilmas had come to New Albany, as was his annual custom, to purchase presents, as lie said, for the chil- dren of his aged sister, residing somewhere in the State a* Maine. He was seen to have a large wad of bank-notes, which he displayed in the bar-roun of tbe hotel, and startled all who knew him by offering to treat the whole bouse. He drank several egg-nogs, and became as merry as a young man. Ilia conduct was so unlike hit for- mer self that hi was asked what had come over him. To this he replied: "Tins Is my birthday. I have now lived threescore and ten years, which 1 swore I would do on the day I was 50. I*ll celebrate It if It kills me." For an hour the old man unbosom, d him- self to the landlord, and told the story of his life, Be then confessed that the woman to Win he annually sent presents was an old sweetheart who had jilted him in his younger days. Vilmas said be had killed his old rival one cold winter night ill Maine, alter the two bad been DO a spree together. They quarreled on a bridge over a creek, near the home of the girl with whom both were in love, and he, being the stronger, threw his companion over the parapet. The next morning his rival's body was found frozen In the ice. Miser Vilmas' hearers were inclined to doubt his story, and joked loin about it. savins that he had drunk too many egg-nogs. On this he straightened himself up and replied that maybe he had, and then buttoned his overcoat across his chest aud started home on horseback. On Christmas it was reported that Vilmas' horse bad returned homo without Its rider, and people at once jumped to the con- clusion that he had been murdered. Satur- day night he was found as described in the small creek. The body was frozen in the ice so firmly that it had to be chopped out. Those who'had heard the miser's Christmas evening story wire stricken with great won- der at the apparent sign of the hand of fate In bringing about bis death.— St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

The Mad Dash of Four Great Engines' and a Snow-Plow. It Wat a Case of Life or Death, But the Slender Bridge Over Tougliannock Gorge Stood Firm. " Have I ever been frightened on ray en- Clue ? Well. I should say 1 liavo been— much that 1 have felt my cap rise off my head as my hair stood 011 end. Get up in the cab here and I'll tell you about the ouly time 1 ever said a prayer in my life. "I was running on the old G. I. and A. Railroad, before it was consolidated with the Lehigh V(.lley. The road in those days was not so prosperous as it is now, and we did not have all the material that we should have had to work with. Au engine was often kept running until she actually broke down oa the road before she could be taken to the shop for repairs. But that is not what I was goiug to tell yon about. They were good old days, and we bad lots of fun mingled with, the hardost kind of work. I suppose that "makes it all even. We had one terrible enemy in the winter. That was the snow. Along the lakes are long stretches of level country, over which the wind blows the snow in tho liveliest possi- ble manner. It would fillup the cuts and make huge drifts on the track, co.iioelling the road to suspend business, sometimes for three or four days, until the track could be cleared. "One night there came a tremendous fall of snow. Trains were stalled all along the lino, and a passenger train was caught somewhere near Coverts. Early In the morning all the available engines were or- dered out with snow-plows and gangs of men to clear away the snow. I hud a big six-wheel 'mogul,' one of the heaviest en- gines on the road, and of course we were expected to do some effective work. We put a big supply of coal iitin* tender and started out to clear the track. The snow-plow was built up. about ten feet high, and was made of boiler-iron fastened on strong timbers. It was bolted to the front end of a flat-car, and tons of old scrap-iron wen- piled on the car to make it heavy, so it would not rise from lire rails when we struck a big bank. Well, we got out of Ithaca all right. The old 'mogul' went along plowing through the snow, pushing it aside and throwing it around ns ii it were only fun for her. "WE GOT ovi.i: THE mi.1. Without any serious delay, but there was a cut just the oilier side of the summit that was completely filled with snow. I saw it and pulling the old 'niouglV throttle wide open, iiiiide a running jump for it. The snow-plow was driven about half-way through the cut, and then we got stuck. We backed up and tried again, but it war. no use; we couldn't get through. Word was telegraphed back, and in an hour or so three locomotives were sent to our assist- ance. We c.'iipled together when they arrived and made another effort. Willi the increased power we pushed our way through as clean as a 1in. "There is another cut just west of Tough- annock, similar [to tie one we .had just cleared, only it is a little deeper, if any- thing. The boys had a consultation and decided to go ahead and rani our way through this cut, if we coulu. I pulled the whistle, signaling to the other en- gineers to come on, and in a moment the four Uk 'moguls,' with the snow- plow ahead, aereSgoing like a streak for the snow cut a couple of miles away. Do the other side of Toughainio. X Station is Tough- annock Gorge, over which was an iron bridge. The gorge is not wide at that point, but very deep, with a little stream . l" water sparkling and glimmering in the bottom like a tiny lino of glittering silver. You see, the gorge was between the engines and the cut, and no one had thought ot tha bridge when we decided to charge on the cut. it is a dangerous thing, as a rule, to run two en- gines cou i led together on a bridge, let alone four, and a great snow-plow with all the weight that could be piled on it. We were within a hundred yards of the bridge be- fore 1 thought of it, but when 1 did mv heart went down in my boots. There was nouse trying to .-lop. That was simply im- possible. I felt sure that my time had come. I sat down on my box and HIM. ON TO THE REVERSE LEVER With both bauds, i could hear the engines behind puffing ami snorting, their little driving-wheel, going around so fast that you could scarcely sea them. Above all I could hear the big No. 10, the last engine on the stxinc, working withthe fury of a devil, doing her best to push Ihe rest of us along a little faster. What I Buffered in those few seconds 1 cannot describe. These gray hairs, 1 think, was cau.ed by that terriplo strain. We drew nearer and nearer' the span. 1 looked across the boiler at my fire- man, thinking it would be the last time I should see him on earth. There he stood grinning like a jack-lantern, hi., white teeth .shilling beneath the black soot on his dirty face, wiping his oily hands with a piece ot waste, utterly unconscious of the awful death that awaited him. "I _K>r fool," 1 thought, "you had better die in peace." 1 could not warn lii.n of the danger if I would. We were now very near the bridge. Ia an instant more wo should all be dead. 1 closed my eyes and began to pray. The snow-plow struck th** -.pan. and after it we came. 1 felt it tremble as the trucks of my engine .truck it. There was a roar from the gorge, as it echoed back the noise made by the train. All the en- gines seemed to leap through the air as 'hey ran on the bridge, and belore 1 had time to realize what bad happened we were on the other side, .fearing on toward the object of our attack, like so many agents fr m the infernal regions. "We had a fearful time clearing out that cut We cot stuck a il' a ".<. times and could not gel either way. but when the engine men got together and 1 told them of our es- cape tliere was more thee one pah- face in tin' group. Vim asked me if I hg | ever been frightened. Well, this is the time, and i never want (die minute of sued agony as I suffered that day again— not for the world." —N. Y. Tribune. Moss Singular C___aM«f Dentil on Record. Of misers who rolled in their gold I have often heard, but it is surely a new experi- ence for one to rite from the pressure of his accumulated specie.

Cream Baking Powder is far superior to other brands in the fact that they never fail to make the finest pastry^ and if they wish to be economical they can dispense entirely with eggs and can use a less quantity of butter for shortening purposes. The advantage is not alone in the saving effected but in avoiding the trouble and frequently the great difficulty of securing eggs that are fresh. This is often a serious trouble. Cakes of various kinds from the informal Griddle Cakes to the stately Bride Cake can be made with Price's Cream Baking Powder, which insures light, sweet and hand- some cakes; or when used for Griddle Cakes to be eaten hot enables their production in the shortest space of time, always :"\u25a0\u25a0' * ' Ai tender and delicious. Dr. Price's is the only Baking Powder that contains the white of eggs. None so pure ! None so wholesome ! Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is re- , ported by all authorities as free from Ammonia, Alum, or any other adulterant. In fact, the purity of this ideal powder has never, been ques- tioned.

A notable wedding was celebrated hereon New Year's eve, a brief account of whichwillhe of interest to many society people ofmis anu lutei.or cities.

The principals were Dr. William Elleryliiiggs oi Sacramento and Miss (.race Ride-out, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Norman D.Hideout. ,gflt.was a quiet family wedding, celebratedat the residence of the bride's parents, onthe corner of Washing.* n and Gough streets.More than usual ration was evoked bythe decorations, which were magically ef-fective. The hall was festooned with dark.\u25a0hands of lobage and mussed with reed-grasses, with here and there a w;reath ofdelicate chicory plant..-The warmth and sedate hues here maden mist effective antithesis io the scene in.the parlors. Mis s Hates had lavished hertaste in producing the wintry eifect there.Frosted boughs glittering icicles and•feathery enowflakes combined to form a•wtmderful little bay-window bower, in thecenter cf which depended with strikingeffect? a peifect wreath of la France roses,the fresh piuk petals thrown into vividre-lief by their snowy eutourace.

The friends of the family, including manyfrom Sacramento ar.d Marysyiile, assembledin the rear parlor, which was prettilytrimmed iv yellow, the llowers being chieflychrysanthemums. About 9 o'clock tlte or-chestra played a wedding mater, and thehaypy-lpair.< advanced to the i.-icle bower,r.receded by two pretty little cousins of thebride— Miss Helen and Master JusticeGreeley. The bride's robe was poul deseine, trimmed w.th rare point d'Alencon;her ornaments were diamonds. The briefceremony was performed by 1.-v. Dr.James oftha City College, on Haight street,a very old friend of the family. - \u25a0

Amid the usual blithe strains of the wed**ding march _:atulatien. were afterward.proffered the happy pair, and an elaboratesupper enjoyed, The dining-room, by the\u0084Y_.y, with its dark woodwork panelingand terra coita tinted walls, was strikingly

[decorated with oranges amid their properfoliage. Later, there was dancing, and theadvent of the new year was not forgotten inthe happy festivities. Among these was thecutting of the bride-cake, when the fateful

[ximt fell to Miss Stratton.The billiard-room, downstairs, had to be

< to the presents, which entirelyhied that Bpacious apartment. They in-e;udrd a. creat deal of plate, Limoges and;fcevres services, and art gems ol every con-ceivable kind.. Ona interesting present not in the billiard-rooui was a planter-cast, iif.size, represent-ing the bead cf the bride in medallioni.rm, in relief. The artist and donor washer cousin, Miss Alice Hideout, the youngsculptress who lias recently won suchhonors by her groups in Chicago, submittedSri. competition for the World's Fair llnild-

The young genius borrowed a photo-graph, and finished the cast ia a day, andboth workmanship and likeness were votedperfect by those pic-cut.

LITERATURE.The Cnfttnrr Diction'ai.y— By the

Century Company. (New York: Toe Cen-tury Publishing Company. Sixth volume,

104_ pp., £10.) The sixth and last volume ofthat great work "The Century Dictionary"has just been issued. Itcommences withtiie word "Strub" and continues to theclose, and completes one of the moststupendous literary productions ever pro-duced within a limited time. The prefaceIssued with the lust part is dated May 1,1889, the supplementary note to the pre laceissued .with the la.i pert; October l,189LBetween Ibo**dates bus been published, intwenty-four parts which have followed oneanother with almost unchanical regularity,a dictionary of70b. large quarto pages, con-taining, from the printers point of view,two-third:, as much matter as tho Encyclo-paedia Uritanniea, and including about1500.000 definitions of over 215.000 words,50,-00 defined phrases, 300,060 illustrativequotation.) and 8000 cuts. The labor involvedin this achievement is enormous. To havopublished any serious work of such size inthat time would have been a remarkableexploit; the fact that the work is a dic-tionary, wliich was planned on an ideal be-fore regarded as unattainable, and whichhas practically attained this ideal, makesthe result little less than extraordinary. Toform a faint idea of what the making ofthis hook meant, one has but to considerthe difficultyof collecting such disconnectedmatter (for tiie entirely "new" words, defi-nitions and quotations in the "Century" al-most outnumber all that the dictionarieswhich preceded it contain), the care in-volved in the statement and verification ofmillions of more or less Isolated facts, andthe labor of producing, with such varietyof material, a typographically faultlesspage, lt is hardly necessary to say thatthis wonderful rapidity of publication waspossible only by reason of the long, elab-orate and thorough preparatory work doneon the whole book before a page of it wassent to the press. Bo careful was this prep-aration, so methodical and well ordered theexecution of tin* plan, thai punctuality andrapidity were never allowed to degenerateInto haste, lt should also be added that thedictionary could have been produced onlyby a force exceptionally well qualifiedfor the task; under a division ofthe labor by which each received the partfor li.eh he was best fitted; with an intel-ligent discrimin#tion between work whichcould be done rapidly and that which couldnot, and with untiring energy on the pert ofthose responsible for its progress.

The creators of the dictionary have beenguided throughout by a clear and sympa-thetic appreciation of the demand of con-temporary science and practical life, andhave striven to make it, in its way, an em-bodiment of the knowledge and of the high-est thought and aspirations of the nineteenthcentury.

The sixth volume contains its full shareof important and interesting articles. Thedefinitions of sun and sun-spot— byProfessor C. A. Young— their engrav-ings illustrate well its encyclopedic rich-ness, as do also such articles as those undertransit, temple, swallow, sub-, substance,trot (withits reproduction of instantaneousphotographs by Muybridge), trust, etc Thevolume also exhibits the usual large Dum-ber of admirable cuts, such as those undertabard, testudo, tiger, toboggan, tomb, tube(pneumatic), tunnel, typesetting- machine,Venus, victory, Videstrelda, Vidua, Vidu-iua_.

Itcloses with a list of over 3000 authorsand authorities cited in the course of thework, and with what is, perhaps, the mostinteresting single thing it contains— a re-print if the list of amended spellings rec-

mended by the English Philological So-ciety and the American Philological Asso-eialion, headed by an introduction wliichleaves no doubt where the edit of thedictionary stand as regards spelling-reform.While this list, which has as yet almost noactual usage to support it. and was indeedintended only as a step toward somethingmore complete, could uot properly be in-corporated in the body of the dictionary,Professor Whitney believes that no lexicog-rapher should ignore it.

No one who desires to keep abreast of thetimes can do so without having In his li-brary this mostexceilent book, which bringsdown to date everything that one may wishto know about the English language.Offered by the Dewing Company.

"The Duchess of Powsyland

"Is the first

number in Cue new year that is added tothe Boston series, known as "The TuckerLibrary." is-ued by Benjamin lh Tucker ofthat •v. This novel is by Grant Allen,who was awarded a prize of £5000 for bispowerful work of fiction, "What'- Bred intiie Bone." It. is \u25a0 captivating story of thecareer of an American girl who married atitle, having become united by matrimonywith the first rank of the British peerage,Itis well written, entertaining and sensa-tional, It involves a charge of murderbrought against the Duchess, who is ac-cused of the murder, by poison, of her hus-band. Upon the trial It was made to ap-pear that the accusation was groundless,and that the Duke bad died by his ownhand.

"A Southern Heritage" is a title of anew novel written by William HoraceBrown, and added to the "Vanity FairSeries

"by Edward Brandns it Co. of New

York, the publishers. In this book Mr.Brrwn, who has already made a go* d namefor himself in the "Staves ofFolly," gives avery charming and highly entertaining storyof Southern life during tho war times andimmediately thereafter. The charm of thenovel, aside from its literary merit, is thatthe htorv is told in a most pleasing manner,and holds tbe attention of the reader fromfirst to last.

"Mademoiselle Ixe," that bright littlestory published by Charles 11. Sergei A Co.of Chicago, is to be translated into Frenchto appear as a feuilleton in the Debats ofPans. Arrangements are also in progresslor a dramatic version of it,both for En-gland and America.

Magazines and Oilier -Voles.With the January number "TheMagazine

of American History" opens the twenty-seventh volume of a periodical

'that is so

well known that it needs no booming.. Thecharacter of the articles that have beenpresented in the past are a guarantee forwhat will be offered in the future. Allitsarticles have been remarkable for literarymerit, Interest and accuracy, the great pointin the presentation of historical matter.This issue is notably good, and among themany articles that are given are: Theleading paper by Hon. Arthur Harvey, iheeminent President of the Canadian In-stitute, which is the first part of "ACritical and Common-sense View of theEnterprise of Christopher Columbus,"uniquely illustrated. "The Secret Societiesof Princeton University," by ThomasHotel) Us Jr., illustrating the old and newWhig Halls at Princeton. "A Short-livedAmerican State," an admirable contribu-tion from the Louisiana historian, HenryE. Chambers, and the question, "WasAmerica Discovered by the Chinese?" isably discussed by Rev. Dr. Glover.

In the January "Arena" Hamlin Gar-latin's miich-talked-of novel of the modernWest opens brilliantly. The publishers of"The Arena" claim that this will be "theUreal American novel," and certainly itbids fair to be by far the strongest workthat has yet come from the pen of the brill-iant "novelist of the West," though this issaying much, as those who have read"Main-Travelled Bonds" and "Jason Ed-wards" will admit. This* issue also con-tains strong papers by Alfred Basse! Wal-lace on "Himan Progress: Past andFuture"; Professor A. N. Jannari-, Ph. D.,of the University of Gieece, Athens, on"Mohammedan Marriage and Life"; HenryWood on "The Universality of Law"; ex-Governor Lionel A. Sheldon, on "Louisianaand the Levees"; D. G. Watts, on "WaltWhitman"; Charles Schroder, on "What IsBuddhism?" and several other able papers."The Arena" fully maintains its brilliantreputation. .

One of the most important and absorbingpolitical problems of the hour, "the pardon-ing power," is discussed with profound In-terest by David B. Hill, Governor of NewYork, in the "North American Review" forJanuary. Itshould be exercised, he thinks,with the sob* aim to the reformation of theoffender. The writer suggests that a signifi-cant in titer, thus far overlooked,' is an effortto encourage the convict's reform after liehas.served his term. The prison bird now

finds the world turned against him, andevery inclination to reform is frozen by hiscold reception. He can get no work; hemust starve or steal, and again the prisondoor }awns before him. "Who willstartthis good work?" he asks.

The January number of "Lippineolt'sMagazine" is marked by several new fea-tures. The complete novel is by YoungE.Allison, formerly of the "Louisville Courier-Journal," an experienced journalist. It isentitled "The Passing of Major Kilgore,"and from the sure, easy and practical wavin which he writes' it might he bis tenthrather than his first effort in the line of fic-tion. This novel contains a graphic pictureof the humors and woes of a newspaperoffice. The story is interesting throughout,and not lacking in elements of excitement,pathos ami unexpectedness; the character-drawing is fullof shrewd insight and kindlyhumor, while the style is natural delight-mi. . nyp.

The Forum Publishing Company hasprobably never issued a number so con-spicuous for interest, brilliancy and abilityas the January number. It fairly teemsfrom cover to cover with able discussions oflive national questions, and is a mine ofrich Information. A powerful Indictmentof the Louisiana lottery, by Judge FrenchMcGlain, 1. ads the list. Dr. F. 11. Geffckendiscusses "The Pope and the Future ofPapacy," and tho Rev. Or. C. A. Briggshas given an able paper on "TheologicalEducation and Its Needs." "The SecretBallot" is a valuable paper by JosephBishop, and Mrs. Van Rensselaer gives anexcellent article on "American Homes."

The January number of"Harper's

Monthly Magazine" marks an era In itspublication, forit is the fivehundredth num-ber that has been issued. There is no peri-odical that has been published for so long atime as this one has that haa maintained itsinterest as has "Harper's Magazine." The

issue of this month is an excellent one, bothas to text and illustrations. Among themany very interesting tides offered maybe mentioned "Canada's El Dorado," byJulian Ralph; "Our Exposition at Chicago"and "Charles- the Second" by Walter Bes-ant.

Those Yvho are interested in the science ofantiquities will find a treat in the latest Is-sue of the "American Antiquarian," pub-lished by S. D. Feet at Avon, 111. Itisfilled with matter of great interest on sub-jects of the long ago, ami it is instructivenot only to archaeologists, but to the generalreader. The leading article i- one by thepublisher on the religion of the mound-builders, and this is followed by a very in-teresting article on "Y_ma, or the VotivePictures inJapan," by W. E. DeForest.

The January number of the "Century"has for frontispiece a spirited picture ofCharles Francois Gounod, the world re-nowned composer. In another portion ofthis interesting periodical there is a veryentertaining sketch of the composer. Theleading articlein this issue is an illustratedone, on "The Jews in New fork," care-fully written ami full of information. Inaddition to this, the magazine contains agreat amount of bright magazine articles, allof which are of the best.

William A. Coffin, in the first of a groupof papers on "American illustrations ofTo-day," in the January "Scribner," saysof the decorative part of Kenyon Cox'sWork: "The pen drawings fur initial let-ters fin 'The Blessed Damozel'] are by longodds the best things of the kind that havecome from an American artist. They Showgreat oiigiuality of conception and a Knowl-edge of the principles of design that veryfew artists possess, and a delicate thoughvirile sense of beauty in their execution."

The January number, which is the holidayone of "Outing," conies in a pretty whitecover with the litre printed in dark blue andgold. The magazine, as usu.il, contain* agreat deal that is of value and interest toall who delight in reasonable outdoorathletic sports, aud inaddition has a goodChristmas story, entitled "The Bear's HeadBrooch," by Ernest Incersoll, and a spiritedsketch that militiamen willenjoy.

y''THE 11MS1) OF FATE.

Ho Had Killed His ltiv.iland .Viet With aHorrible Death.

A searching party that had ben two dayslooking for Louis Vilmas, a rich old miser,who had been last seen in New Albany,Ind.. on Christmas evening, found him onSaturday night dead in a small creek in thewoods near his house, which was on a billnear Mooresville. Connected withhis deathis a strange story. Vilmas had come toNew Albany, as was his annual custom, topurchase presents, as lie said, for the chil-dren of his aged sister, residing somewherein the State a* Maine. He was seen tohave a large wad of bank-notes, which hedisplayed in the bar-roun of tbe hotel, andstartled all who knew him by offering totreat the whole bouse. He drank severalegg-nogs, and became as merry as a youngman. Ilia conduct was so unlike hit for-mer self that hi was asked what had comeover him. To this he replied: "Tins Ismy birthday. Ihave now lived threescoreand ten years, which 1swore Iwould do onthe dayIwas 50. I*llcelebrate ItifItkillsme."

For an hour the old man unbosom, d him-self to the landlord, and told the story of hislife, Be then confessed that the woman toWin he annually sent presents was an oldsweetheart who had jilted him in hisyounger days. Vilmas said be had killedhis old rival one cold winter night illMaine,alter the two bad been DO a spree together.They quarreled on a bridge over a creek,near the home of the girl with whom bothwere in love, and he, being the stronger,threw his companion over the parapet. Thenext morning his rival's body was foundfrozen In the ice. Miser Vilmas' hearerswere inclined to doubt his story, and jokedloin about it.savins that he had drunk toomany egg-nogs. On this he straightenedhimself up and replied that maybe he had,and then buttoned his overcoat across hischest aud started home on horseback.

On Christmas it was reported that Vilmas'horse bad returned homo without Its rider,and people at once jumped to the con-clusion that he had been murdered. Satur-day night he was found as described in thesmall creek. The body was frozen in theice so firmly that ithad to be chopped out.Those who'had heard the miser's Christmasevening story wire stricken withgreat won-der at the apparent sign of the hand of fateIn bringing about bis death.— St. LouisGlobe-Democrat.

A MOMENT OF PERIL.

The Mad Dash of Four GreatEngines' and a Snow-Plow.

ItWat a Case of Life or Death, But theSlender Bridge Over Tougliannock

Gorge Stood Firm.

"Have Iever been frightened on ray en-

Clue ? Well. Ishould say 1liavo been—much that 1 have felt my cap rise off myhead as my hair stood 011 end. Get up inthe cab here and I'lltell you about the oulytime 1ever said a prayer in my life."Iwas running on the old G. I. and A.

Railroad, before it was consolidated withthe Lehigh V(.lley. The road in those dayswas not so prosperous as it is now, and wedid not have all the material that we shouldhave had to work with. Au engine wasoften kept running until she actually brokedown oa the road before she could be takento the shop for repairs. But that is notwhat Iwas goiug to tell yon about. Theywere good old days, and we bad lots of funmingled with,the hardost kind of work. Isuppose that "makes it all even. We hadone terrible enemy in the winter. That wasthe snow. Along the lakes are longstretches of level country, over which thewind blows the snow in tho liveliest possi-ble manner. Itwould fillup the cuts andmake huge drifts on the track, co.iioellingthe road to suspend business, sometimesfor three or four days, until the track couldbe cleared.

"One night there came a tremendous fallof snow. Trains were stalled all along thelino, and a passenger train was caughtsomewhere near Coverts. Early In themorning all the available engines were or-dered out with snow-plows and gangs ofmen to clear away the snow. Ihud a bigsix-wheel 'mogul,' one of the heaviest en-gines on the road, and of course we wereexpected to do some effective work. We puta big supply of coal iitin* tender and startedout to clear the track. The snow-plow wasbuilt up. about ten feet high, and was madeof boiler-iron fastened on strong timbers. Itwas bolted to the front end of a flat-car, andtons of old scrap-iron wen- piled on the carto make itheavy, so it would not rise fromlire rails when we struck a bigbank. Well,we got out of Ithaca all right. The old'mogul' went along plowing through thesnow, pushing it aside and throwing itaround ns iiit were only fun for her.

"WE GOT ovi.i:THE mi.1.Without any serious delay, but there was acut just the oilier side of the summit thatwas completely filled with snow. Isaw itand pulling the old 'niouglV throttle wideopen, iiiiide a running jump for it. Thesnow-plow was driven about half-waythrough the cut, and then we got stuck.We backed up and tried again, but it war.no use; we couldn't get through. Wordwas telegraphed back, and in an hour or sothree locomotives were sent to our assist-ance. We c.'iipled together when theyarrived and made another effort. Willi theincreased power wepushed our way throughas clean as a 1in.

"There is another cut just west of Tough-annock, similar [to tie one we .had justcleared, only it is a little deeper, if any-thing. The boys had a consultation anddecided to go ahead and rani our waythrough this cut, if we coulu. Ipulledthe whistle, signaling to the other en-gineers to come on, and in a momentthe four Uk 'moguls,' with the snow- plowahead, aereSgoing like a streak for thesnow cut a couple of miles away. Do theother side of Toughainio. X Station isTough-annock Gorge, over which was an ironbridge. The gorge is not wide at that point,but very deep, with a little stream . l" watersparkling and glimmering in the bottom likea tiny lino of glittering silver. You see, thegorge was between the engines and the cut,and no one had thought ot tha bridge whenwedecided to charge on the cut. it is adangerous thing, as a rule, to run two en-gines couiled together on a bridge, let alonefour, and a great snow-plow with all theweight that could be piled on it. We werewithin a hundred yards of the bridge be-fore 1 thought of it, but when 1 did mvheart went down inmy boots. There wasnouse trying to .-lop. That was simply im-possible. I felt sure that my time hadcome. Isat down on my box and

HIM. ON TO THE REVERSE LEVERWith both bauds, i could hear the enginesbehind puffing ami snorting, their littledriving-wheel, going around so fast thatyou could scarcely sea them. Above allIcould hear the big No. 10, the last engine onthe stxinc, working withthe fury of a devil,doing her best to push Ihe rest of us alonga little faster. What IBuffered in thosefew seconds 1cannot describe. These grayhairs, 1 think, was cau.ed by that terriplostrain. We drew nearer and nearer' thespan. 1 looked across the boiler at my fire-man, thinking it would be the last time Ishould see him onearth. There he stoodgrinning like a jack-lantern, hi., white teeth.shilling beneath the black soot on his dirtyface, wipinghis oily hands with a piece otwaste, utterly unconscious of the awfuldeath that awaited him.

"I_K>r fool," 1 thought, "you had betterdie in peace." 1could not warn lii.n of thedanger ifIwould. We were now very nearthe bridge. Ia an instant more wo shouldallbe dead. 1closed my eyes and began topray. The snow-plow struck th** -.pan. andafter it we came. 1felt it tremble as thetrucks of my engine .truck it. There was aroar from the gorge, as it echoed backthe noise made by the train. All the en-gines seemed to leap through the air as 'heyran on the bridge, and belore 1 had time torealize what bad happened we were on theother side, .fearing on toward the object ofour attack, like so many agents fr m theinfernal regions.

"We had a fearful time clearing out thatcut We cot stuck a il'a ".<. times and couldnot gel either way. but when the enginemen got together and 1 told them of our es-cape tliere was more thee one pah- face intin' group.

Moss Singular C___aM«f Dentil on Record.Of misers who rolled in their gold Ihave

often heard, but it is surely a new experi-ence for one to rite from the pressure of hisaccumulated specie. A poor-looking third-class passenger m the train from Paris toTelia was taken seriously ill as the latterplace was neared. He was still alive whenTurin Station was reached, and was carriedoff tit once to a sofa in the waitiiig-rooin,where he soon died.

"iifxiiniinntion it was found he was wear-ing 11 belt containing no less then 30,000Irancs in gold, and death had evidently beencaused by tip* pri'ssiim of this belt with itsprecious contents. The dead man had alsorouleaux of gold under his arm-pits, thoughhe was dressed in la^, and so far no clewto ids identity has been discovered.—New-ark Journal.

Cakes Without Eggs.

Observing housekeepers quickly learn that Dr. Price..

Cream Baking Powder is far superior to other brands in

the fact that they never fail to make the finest pastry^ and

if they wish tobe economical they can dispense entirely with

eggs and can use a less quantity of butter for shortening

purposes. The advantage is not alone in the saving effected

but in avoiding the trouble and frequently the great difficulty

of securing eggs that are fresh. This is often a serious

trouble.

Cakes of various kinds from the informal Griddle

Cakes to the stately Bride Cake can be made with Price's

Cream Baking Powder, which insures light, sweet and hand-

some cakes; or when used for Griddle Cakes to be eaten hot

enables their production in the shortest space of time, always:"\u25a0\u25a0' *'Ai

tender and delicious.Dr. Price's is the only Baking Powder that contains the

white of eggs. None so pure ! None so wholesome !

Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is re-,ported by all authorities as free from Ammonia,Alum, or any other adulterant. In fact, thepurity of this ideal powder has never, been ques-tioned.
