Bow eagerly wo talked about Tho places whore we'd go. All maiden fear was lulled to rest, We loved each other so. Tho words were said that made us one— We wept our last good-byes. O'or summer seas wo sailed and sailed '.to lands with bluer skies. ' Whero Arno's waters swiftly slip 'Heath Ponta Veoohio's stones; Whore Santo Crooe's marble saints Watch o'er her honored bones. Where gleam the gems of art divine On church and palace walls ; Whero on the ear the Sistine chant Like seraph musk) Across fair Naples' azure bay, Whore Oaprl'a smiling shore Woos those who love to feast for aye, Never to wander more— Through all that land of art and song, Where love holds sway supreme, We roamed and quaffed lifo's richest draught, And lived as in a dream. « 0 • • • Was this indeed our wedding trip ? No. Only what we talked. Wo went from mother's home to John's, And John and I both walked. "Love He Little, Love Ste Long." A wedding occurred on the stage of the Alexander Museum, on the Bowery, New York, on Wednesday evening, the 18th iust. Tho bride was the Priecess Lucy, 19 years old, 27 inch- es in height, and 28 pounds in weight. Tho groom was Gen. Rheinbeek, who weighs 40 pounds, is 86 inches high, and 21 years of age. Tho Pair stood on a small table in the centre of the stage. The.bride, who is bright -look- ing and quite pretty, wore a train of white silk with a lace front. On her head were the regulation bridal veil and orange bloseoms. At her left bend stood the bridesmaid, Mies Annie Bell, a professional stout lady, whose abundance of flesh made the bricleai little figure look very tiny in- deed. The little bride seemed to en- joy the novelty of the ceremony. She smiled in an amused manner and in- dulged in a oligbt blush when the pastor told her that she should bring up ber children as "good Republican citizens of the United. Statee." REAL E6TATE. investing in property here heti re.1 turned, and there have boleti cone°. quent inquiree after bargainby leant and outside parties whieli augur well for a brisk demand next year. Pro. porkies along Main etreet, nAllootigh they have not titian in value yet, are very firm, especially ninon the an- nouncement of the building of the H.13. road, aud next year will pro- bably Hue a decided advance, at least in good bulimia bloc:Isl. There have been one or two heavy inveetmente made by eastern and foreign capital- ists, and inquiries are being cues tans. ly made. One real estate agent estimates., that $500,000 would represent the amount of real abate whicli has changed bands during the past summer. AA - other says that a largo portion of the business done this summer was t110 buying of building lots by men on salary, who have been Baying up, not being sure whether they would re- main here or not, but who have de. °idea to make their permanent homes in this city, Some progress has also been made during the past year in the settlement ef vacant lamb around the city ; for which the real estate agents are 00 - titled to the credit, as all the immi- gration agencies work to send immi- grants west. Tho old lie that lends around the city are held by epeculat. ors at abnormally high figures bobs up serenely at regular periods in the eastern press, Laud IR cheaper in the Bed River valley iu the neighbor. hood of Winnipeg than in any other part of the province. Altogether a couple of hundreds were settled, and /notch more would havo boon done in this direction had the land -warrants not taken hundreds to tbo free grant district who would otherwise have re- mained here. Altogether, although neither the Facet nor the past has been all they would desire the majority of the real estate dealers are satisfied with the prospects for the future. (From the Winnipeg Free Prose.) The past summer has not been to very prosperous one with the real es-, tate agents in this city; there have been no tory heavy transactions„ no' booms, no fortunes made. And yet, take them as a whole, they aro fairly well satisfied with the season's aper- ations, and are more hopeful of the future than at any time since the collapse of the boom. A. talk with a number of agents showed that the experience of one hacl boon that of all. During the poet summer, although transaetions havo been light (temper- ed with what they wore in the laal- cyon days of 1882, there has been a groat change effected in the minds of the publie regarding the desirability of Winnipeg property. After the boom broke, men with plenty of pro. petty were rather conamisserated than otherwise, and for a year or so after- wards, partly because prices still re- mained ea abnormally high figures, but chiefly because under the crash many lost confidence in the future of the country, and it wati impossible to sell oily or farm pooperty either to Winnipeggers or outsiders. But prices have steadily been regulating themselves in accordance with the in- exorable natural law of supply and demand, and this summer they found themselves on a natural basis onee more.
