Miss Noodle Linwood, of Poplar Grove,
asks Us to tell her what is meant by wooden
weddings. She has an idea that il means
marrying a blockhead. Wooden weddings
mark the arrival Of the lassocd unfor,unates
at the fifth annual milestone Of their weary
journey to longed-for peaceful tomb. You
are not altogether incorrect, Miss Woodie, in
your supposition, as many woman in this
country celebrates hers at the outset Of her
matrimonial (which is too often merely n
matter-o'money-al) career, by marrying a
blockhead, The celebration of wooden we'd

Statement Of the Brother of the Young
7ennessean Murdered at Shreve-
port Recently.

A few days ago we published in the
APPEAL a brief account of the murder
of Cyreneus Elliott, iOrmely of Hender-
son county in this State, at Shreveport.
At the corOner's inquest held the day
following the dreadful deed, the surviv-
ing brother OF the murdered man made
the following statement, his utterances,
says the Shreveport Times, at times
so incOherant and disconnected that il
was almost impossible to obtain any
thing like concise or connected sem
tence:
az and my brother are from Lexing
ton, Henderson county, Tennessee. My
brother has been living with my sister,
and be got the money which he had
upon his person from her. We had alto
gether about five hundred dollars. We
came to Shreveport on the steamer
Lotus No. 3, yesterday morning. My
brother was sick, and he went into a
yard, and they had US arrested as
suspicious characters. After we were
released we went about town awhile,
and then went into a sOlOon to get a
drink. While we were there we met
colorsd man whom they called Ed. We
talked with him few minutes, and
then he left US. We started out after
dinner to go to Texas, and after we had
passed Jones's house short distance, we
were stopped by a black man and a
white man, who asked US to 90 back
aud get drink We consented to do
SO, and went back. The negro proposed
that eplay a game of cards. and I sat
down with him. l think 1 lost about
fifty dollars. My brother (the deceased)
tried to stop me from playing, but L did
not want to stop, because | wanted TO
get my money back. While my brother
and was talking somebody put their
arm around my throat and threw me
Oye- back, and pulled my pistol out of
my focket. l saw my brother raise up
out Of the chair and then heard gun
go of, but l did not see who fred it.
Heard my brother say, 'Oh, John; Pm
killed., and l saw him fall toward the
door. When got up, a man put a
pistol to my head and ordered me to
give him my money, telling me he was
an officer. l gave him ali l had.

dollars in all. After be took the money

asked the man who took my money il
my brother was dead, and he said No;
he has been arrested and taken away
at the back doar with rifle in his hand
and shot at me with it, but the ball did
not hit me. The man who took my
money told the other man not TO kill
me, and he did not fire again. l then
went to the door and saw my brother
lying on the road dead, but they would
not let me go near him. The man who
had my money then told me l had
better jump on my horse and get out
