Groat speculation Is rlfo In Drumtochty
ns to how iiml uliero tho npproachlnK
niftrrlnKo of Kate CnrncKlo, nn Kplscopn
llan, mid John Carmlchacl, the Vtcp Kirk
minister, will bo celebrated. The problem
bI n tremendous and ubsorblnK one to the
people, unitll Kate pvtilcs tho matte by
nsklnjr Dr. Davidson, tho minister of the
Jiarlsh (l'Jstabllshcd) church, to pel form
tho cermouy. This presents a new dllil
culty to John, tho parish Hcadlo, How
shall the Kreo Kirk brothren, who needs
must como to their minister's wedding, be
sea tort 7 Slnoj the rcllslous movement of
3841, kome thirty years before, which re
sulted In tho establishment of tho Freo
JClik, none of the dissenters had ever set
foot within the parish church, but ot
course tho ancestral family pew.i are still
there, and John evolves tho plan of having
tho Kreo Klrltcrs occupy their ancestral
pews on this occasion. This N settled on,
but kept secret between John nnd Dr.
Davidson. Hut nnother question still
vixeH the Rood licadlc, and tie appeals to
Dr. Davidson again. Will tho Freo Kirk
Hoodie want to act as colleague at tho
weiMIng?

"Certainly not as, eh, collonRUO" tno
doctor's voice kept wonderfully steady
"but assistant perhaps, to take any
little duty you cannot overtake your
self, for the day will be a strain, and
it would relieve jou to have a man
at your commnnd."
It was exasperatlnp; that nfter nil
this care had bee a taken, and every
risk of collision had been anticipated,
that a man like Gormnck should sud
denly plunge Into tho affair and creato
a crisis which might have ended In
general confusion. For a Kcncra'ion
ijormack had sat contentedly on a
back seat, and supported Drumsheugh
nnd the front bench In the government
of the uffalt-3 of the commonwealth, and
Ills unexpected Interference Is only an
other Illustration of how a donee man
may at a time loaa his head.
"A vo been wunncrln' hoo a' the fouk
can be seatlt at tho man-lag?, John, on'
a've hit o,i a bit plan which intent be o
use tao ye."
The fathers regarded him with hor
ror, as one bereft of his senses, nnd
John's face, after one swift stare of as
tonishment hardened into steel.
"It's thochtfu' o' vo, Gormnck, tae
tak pcety on a pulr, helpless, dlstracklt
cratu, an' a' wud bo glad tao hear the
result o' ylr doleoberatlons, for we a'
ken ye hne a' terrible gilt o' Ingenuity,"
nnd even after that Goimaek continued
on his course.
"It. wudnx bo vtise-llko tao see the
Free Kirk fouk hangln' aboot the doors,
or wanderln' up nn' doon the passnges,
or rannnln' themsel3 intac pews whar
there wesna room for them, like stliks
Intae a byre."
John encouraged Gormack to pro
ceed with such irony that even Whln
nle felt the ntmosph'ero, nnd Hillocks
indicated to Diumsheugh that ho ought
to Intervene.
"Noo, a' wes thlnkin' that ye mlcht
set a corn measure at no end o a pass
age an' a stool at the lther, nnd lay a
stack ladder on them. Wl' a plaid or
Blc-like on It, ye cud get a grand seat
for maybe twelve fouk, an"
"Ye're an' awfu' hand, Gormaclc,
when ye talc tno jokln', hut ye canna
draw the Beadle; na, nn, he lies his
p nn ready, an' he's no tao tell It till
the day come," which was very shrewd
of Drumsheugh, but It took him nil his
time the doctor had to assist to
smooth John down and Induce him to
regard Gormnck's suggestion .ib a fool
ish and Irreverent jest. It was four
weeks before the outraged functionary
had woiked off his Indignation, during
which time he bantered Gormack with
out mercy entreating him to bring
forwnri any new suggestions for the

desk and read this letter from Dr. Da
vidson: The Mnnse of Drumtochty.
Dear Brethren of tho Free Church:
I have the honor and pleasure to Invito
you nil to he present In the Parish
Church on Friday nfternoon nt two
o'clock, when your minister nnd my
friend is to be mnrrled to Miss Cather
ine Carnegie, of Tochty, nnd to nsk
that you will take the pews set apart
for your farms, and which will be
ready for your coming.
Believe me, your faithful servant,
ALEXANDER DAVIDSON.
It Is said that the last possible person
In tho Glen was seated and ready at
JUS ANCESTRAL PEW.
twenty minutes past one some nrrlved
nt noon nnd tho coming of the Free
Kirk was an event to be remembered.
Many a time had they visited tho Kirk
yard following the dead, nnd at a time
some ono like Burnbrae would turn In
from tho road to stand awhile beside
the grave which held his kinsfolk, hut
aorcss tho door of the Kirk no exile of
'43 had ever passed. Sometimes n Free
Klrkman lingering behind n funeral
would lok In nt the window nnd Identi
fy the place whero he sat In former
days, but this he would not have dono
In tho presence of a neighbor. The past
with Its tender memories had a secret
hold on the heart of Drumtochty,
but If a feeling of wistful regret over
touched the heart of Burnbrae as ho
looked on his formor Kirk, lie gave no
sign, and none would have expected
him. Bumbrao hesitated for an in
stant nt the foot of tho outside stair
which led to the. gallery, and It was
pretty to see Drumsheugh, who had
been lying In wait for this, coming out
to receive him nt the top, nnd escorting
him with much cordiality to his ances
tral pow. AVhon Hillocks moving
about below in the exercise of hospital
ityhappened to glance up find saw tho
two worthy men sitting each In his np
polnted place, as their forbears had
done before them for many genera
tions, he would fain have gone up and
offered his box; as It was, he wagged
his head with much satisfaction, and
had a vague sense of the mlllenlum.
As Netherton's seat was ono affected
by tho introduction of tho stove,
Hillocks Intercepted that emin
ent Freo Klrkman at the out
er gate, lest some one should
havo an earlier word, and conducted the
whole family to tho Hillocks' seat, and
placed them there with much impress
iveness. As for his own household, ho
distributed them over tho Kirk, and
came to rest himself on tho coal-box,
where ho disregarded Netherton's anx
ious appeals, and sat with such ex
pansive dignity that Drumsheugh from
his high place eyed him with pride.
Donald Menzles camo to the Kirk in a
Joyful maze, nnd was taken in charge
by Jamie Soutnr, to whom ho unfolded
n vision which had been given him thnt
very morning as he walked In the fields
and meditated on the Song of Solomon,
while Lachlan Campbell, who in tho
days of his bitterness refused onco to
enter an Established church lest
the roof should fall upon him, nnd
to whom little children hnd been an
abhorrence having mado a tryst with
Elslo Macfndyen, for whom I'osty lost
h's life sat with Mrs. Macfadyeu that
day, who declared unto me, as she was
n living woman, that no ono enjoyed
himself more than Lachlan, ' and that
his appreciation tho bride's dress left
nothing to bo desired. It seemed to
me, Indeed, that day, sitting by spec
ial favor in Drumsheugh's pew, that
Drumtochty had never appeared to
such' advantaio or In a happier mood.
Their rescrvo of manner had yielded
to tho atmosphere audible remarks of
a complimentary nature wero mado on
the decorations: differences of creed
wero ostentatiously Ignored tho Freo
Kirk commenting openly on John's
wonderful going" to and fro, while tho
Auld Kirk indicated their satisfaction
with his brother beadle, who followed
tho great man like a chief of staff; the
names of Dr. Davidson and Mr. Carml
ch'ael were pleasantly woven together,
nnd every ono spoko well of Kate, re
calling her acts of kindness, her trench
ant sayings, and her air of bravery, so
that, nltbough it is doubtless true as u,
rule that Scotland is a much hotter
place to bo hurled than married in,
Drumtochty was a lmppy exception on
Kute Carnegie's marriage day.
It was Marget Howo who had tho
idea of decorating tho church, and
there was no other woman In tho Glen
who could have gained John's permis
sion, "Ye hev chalrgo o' God's Kirk, John,"
eho said in her wonted sweet gravity,
"an' U'a rlcht yo sud keep It free frae
.vanity an folllshness, but yo wud iYant
it tao bo alfter God's mind in tho day
when Ho fllleth human hearts wi' lovo
an' gladness."
John Indicated by a motion of tho
head thnt was tho ideal he had of his
oillce, nnd wn much solemnized, but
refused to be drawn Into speech.
"Oor Father has been pleased to
clotho the Glen frao end tat end wl' a
robo o' green nnd gowd, embroidered
wl' mony fair llowors.and nnc man can
come from his hame tao tho Kirk wlth
oot seeing tho beauty o' tho Lord. The
Klrkynlrd Itsol hes covered the dead
with fresh bonnlo green grass, nnd lies
made tho roses tao bloom In token o'
tho resurrection,"
"A'vc tine objection mnsel tae flowers
in tho Klrkynlrd, in moderation, and
John spoke as one conscious of con
siderable liberality for one in his posi
tion. "The'lll bo Mowers in tho gardens
thnt day," Jtarget went on, "nn' Mow
ers In the hooscs, nn' Mowers In tho
woods, nnd (lowers by the rondsldes,
nnd Mowers In tho stnndln' corn, an'
the'lll bo Julst no place, John, whnr
God's blossoms Mil no bo seen, nn' that
'11 be Ills ain hoose. Dlv yo think that
wud be llttln".' for, nlftcr tho Doctor,
ye're guardian o' tho Kirk."
It was on that appeal, nnd under the
glamor of itarget Howe, which no man
(or woman) could resist, that John
made his historical concession, nnd
Drumtochty Kirk was draped with
roses on Cnrmlchael's marrlaco, red,
yellow and white, but chiefly white, the
ancient sign of the Jneoblto cause, nnd
therefore very pleasing to Kate and
her father.
It was not to bo expected "that this
marriage should bo like any other, and
looking back ncross the years I am
...
Wi
satisfied that It was In all things ex
actly ns It ought to have been. For
one thing, Knte was not a girl likely
to have many friends among young
women, for reasons which a man onn
quite u " understand, but Is not bound
In any way to state, nnd she hnd not
been like herself with a half a dozen
(no doubt quite charming) bridesmaids
at her heels. Instend, therefore, what
did she do but ask the dear old Colonel
who tried to concert Posty, and con
cerning whom I could tell many things
to attend her, and, since no differ
ence could bo made between the vet
erans, V. C, her other friend, must
also share tho duty. Of course nho
would havo them In uniform, that she
might be married as became a sol
dier's daughter, nnd well they looked
in tho red, with tho medals of the
Crimea and Mutiny on their breasts.
As for herself, she was In pure white
Mlk, with wonderful lace of the olden
time, nnd her mother's Jewels, and on
her breast Knte wore the brooch with
Piincd Charlie's hair. It was one of
those still, hot days which camo to
ripen our corn in August, nnd so when
all the people had been gathered in tho
Kirk, Kato camo out from the gray old
house attended by her three faithful
cavaliers, with Janet Macpherson as
tirewoman, nnd walked In her bridal
array below the old trees of tho avenue,
nnd down the grass-grown road, nnd
iil between tho roses and honeysuckle.
Carmlchacl had to come to the Manse
an hour before tho time with his host
man, the minister of St. Bede's church,
Glasgow, who rejoiced in his friend's
toy with loyal tinsrlflthness, although
his betrothed had dlsnnpeared and his
own hea-'t was desolate, nnd St. Bede'sj
walked his charge up and down the
garden, hearing lilm make his response
(thirteen times), explnlnlng on which
side of the brldo ho must stnnd (eigh
teen), watching him keep himself
(twenty-seven), and through It nil
cheering nnd sustaining tho restless
bridegroom with encouraging words
and sweet pnttence till John, who had
skillfully added a certain tolerant good
nature to his austere dignity Insisted
they should go to tho Kirk, at a quar
ter to two.

WHAT Hi: HAD LOST.
Ho Know by Experience How Much
Could llu Lost.
W. J. Kountz, Jr., is- telling ono
which he says Is vouched for by Chas.
O. Kalman, treasurer of the Chicago
nnd Great Western road, St. Paul. It
Is ns follows:
When tho first Rockefeller whale
back was launched at Duluth tho event
was celebrated In grand stylo. A spe
cial train was run from St. Paul to Du
luth, and among the different organiza
tions on board was one of those bad
German bands. Tho excursion arrived
In Duluth at noon nnd the programme
WWB carried out to the letter. Just he
fore tho special left on the return trip
nt 7 o'clock tho next morning a per
fectly round Dutchman rolled up to the
gate. From all appearances ho hadn't
been to bod at all.
"Tickets" demanded the gatemhn.
The German goes through his clothes
wUh no result and anwers, "I ain't
got no dlckct, "Oh, yes you have!
Tho rest of your band Just went
through a minute ago and they nil had
tickets, Look ngalnl" After another
fruitless search tho Teuton reiterated
his former statement. "You must havo
it somewhere," insists tho gateman,
who was fast losing patience, "You
couldn't havo lost it?"
"Couldn't liave lost It," yelled the
German. Couldn't have loBt It? Moin

of tho Diamond Jubllco--Vtctorln's
Retrospect.
From tho Philadelphia Times,
Less thnn three months now remain
before tho celebration of Queen Vic
toria's diamond Jubilee, and Londoners
are busy In anticipation of the coming
event. Although the route which the
procession will follow on June 22 hns
not been ofTlclnlly nnnotinccd, It Is gen
erally assumed that It will bo similar,
so far ns tho first part of it Is con
cerned, to that followed ten years ngo,
when the ceremony took place nt West
minster Abbey. On this assumption
houses nnd windows along the route
havo already been let nt what snein
enormous figures, but when ono con
siders that ns much ns a whole year'H
rental was the universal rate for a
single day at tho Cznr's coronation In
Moscow last year, nnd that notwith
standing tho barbaric splendor of that
eastern pageant. It could not compare
In point of historic interest with the
commemoration of the longest reign ot
the half hundred sovereigns who have
ruled over Grent Brltnln since the time
of Alfred the Greut, tho sum of $10,000
for one of the best houses on Piccadilly,
nnd $250 for a window cnpablo of ac
commodating Ave people does not seem
so very ruinous.
While Englishmen are busy with their
preparations, It Is in a quiet way, not
noticeable to tho casual visitor. Lon
don does not wenr its henrt on Its
sleeve for daws to peck at; the mighty
ebb and Mow of Its tide of humanity Is
not easily nffected, only a little In
crease In the dally mall, a little Mutter
among the house agents, an Increased
attendance at the theatres. There Is
no outward nnd visible sign of what Is
going on nor will there be until well on
in June.
Down in the country towns and vil
lages local magnates nre endowing
hospitals, building libraries nnd pre
senting fountains to their fellow-townsmen
in commemoration of tho event:
but the bulk of the money subscribed
by the people will go Into a fund to re
lieve the London freo hospitals from a
load of annunlly recurring Indebted
ness, amounting to tens of millions of
dollars.
BEGINS ON .SUNDAY.
Tho commemoration will commence
on Sunday, June 20, when religious ser
vices will be held in every church tho
world over wheie the British Mng (lies.
Monday, June 21, Is what Is known as
accession day, but at tho Queen's sug
gestion the ninny celebrations will bo
deferred until the following day, when
her sixty years' reign will have been
actually completed and a new epoch
entered upon.
London's population Is over flx mil
lions, and It Is estimated that there will
be ono million visitors staying there
during the entire Jubilee week, besides
perhaps half a million more who will
come In and return home the same day.
There will be special performances nt
the theatres, and the town will be mag
nificently Illuminated In the evening,
but undoubtedly the chief attraction to
the visitors will bo the procession from
Buckingham Pnlnce to St. Paul's Cathe
dral In the morning and Its return In
tho afternoon.
Special preparations have been made
to provide children with a good view of
the procession. Queen Victoria's love
for tho little ones Is proverbial and per
haps one of the prettiest episodes of the
day will ho the presentation by tho
children of England of an appropriate
gift to her Majesty.
The Queen will drive In nn open car
riage drawn by twelve cream-colored
horses. By her side will be the Prin
cess of Wales and for her escort she
will have the princes of nil the reign
ing houses of Europe. An additional
and what will no doubt be a popular
escort will be formed of a detachment
from different volunteeer regiments in
THE TE.MPATION
o'ory part of tho colonies. The rest of
the cavalcade will be made up of for
eign royalties nnd representatives,
home and colonial officials and the
Queen's ladles, alt with their appropri
ate military escorts.
THE PROCESSION.
Leaving Bucklnghnm Palace about 11
a. m., the procession will wind its wny
up Constitution Hill to Piccadilly,
where It will turn east past Apsley
House the nation's present to the
"Iron Duke" past rows of magnificent
private houses nnd pnlntlal clubs until
It reaches St. James' street, where It
may perhnps turn down hilt pnst more
clubs, past the dull red battlements of
St. James' Palace, past Marlborough
House.the homo of the Prince of Wnles,
nnd so through Pall Mall nnd Cockspur
street Into Trafalgar Suare. It Is pos
sible, however, thnt Instend of turning
down St. James' street, tho procession
may continue nlong Piccadilly, past the
Academy, to Regent Circus nnd turn
ing down the lower end of Regent
street, reach Trafalgar Squnre by way
of Waterloo Place nnd Cockspur street,
thus depriving tho clubs of nn oppor
tunity to display their loyalty, but
pleasing the storekeepers. From Tra
falgar Squnro the piocession will wend
its way along the "Strand," the chosen
homo of tho Thespian and Bohemlnn,
until It reaches the ancient boundnrles
of the city of London, where a monu
ment surmounted by a brazen gtillln
murks the former site of Temple Bar.
A score of years ngo the Queen would
hnvo been met nt this spot by the Lord
Mayor nnd corporation with nn address
of welcome, but on this occnslon the
nddrcss will be reserved until nfter the
ceremony nt iSt. Paul's, when tho Man
sion House Is reached. From the law
courts It Is practically a straight lino
down Fleet street, tho home of the Lon
don dallies, nnd up Ludgnte Hill to the
Cathedral.
TICKETS OF ADMISSION.
The magnificent proportions of St.
Paul's nre lost sight of in the pent-up
circle of dingy houses that surround It.
Tho only fnlr view that ono gets is on
nppronchlng it from the west, but the
recent restoration of Queen Anne s
statue, which stands before It, will pre
vent the procession from driving up to
these doors. Instead, the Queen will go
to the northern entrance. It has been
suggested that after the fatiguing drive
tho Queen will hardly descend from
her carriage nnd walk up the long Might
of steps which lead to the nave of the
cathedral, but that the ceremony will
take place under a canopy erected out
side. The Queen, however. Is a great
stickler for forms, especially In the case
of religious ones, nnd It Is not unlikely
that she may decide, after all, to brave
the steps and not nllow so trilling a
matter to Interfere with the proper ob
servnnce ot the ceremony.
The Immense open space before the
west front hns been entirely reserved
by the Lord Chamberlain, which means
thnt only those who have been present
ed at court will be able to obtain tick
ets of ndmlsslon to this desirable spot.
Tho cathedral service will undoubted
ly be a short one, and after its conclu
sion the procession will wend Its wni
to the Mansion House, where the Lord
Mayor will provide the tired cavalcade
with rest and refreshments. Tho Jour
ney back will probably pass nlong tho
Thames embankment.
AN EVENTFUL REIGN.
Of nil the multitudes who will thtong
the street thnt day none will have more
curious food for reflection than Queen
Victoria. Born on the 24th day of May,
1819, she has outlived all who were her
early counselors, and of the crowned
heads who were alive at the time of her
coronation in 1837 not one remains to
dny. She remembers with horror the
assassination of two presidents of the
United States, two presidents of the
French republic, the Czar ot Russia,
the Emperor Maximilian, a Sultan of
Turkey, tho Shah of Persia, besides
other less notable national heads. She
has witnessed the dethronement of the
emperor of the French; she alone.happy
In her husband, her children and the
lovo of her people, remains to give
thanks for a long period of peace and
happiness a longer period than any
other of her predecessors.
Sixty long years, In which tho world
has moved forward at a rate and to a
point deemed Impossible a century ngo.
Not that the times have nlways been
peaceful. The smoke of Trafalgar and
Waterloo had barely blown away when
she commenced her reign. The Crlm
enn war nnd the Indian mutiny wero
trying times for her, and In the course
of years she has had tho most nstute
diplomats of the world to contend with.
