Married I'm Prison.

Not the least romantic incident in the
history OF the Carbondalc bank robbery
vas that which occurred in the Wilkes
barre prison few days ago, when the
notorious doc" Sweeney, while yet
awaiting sentence, was married to
Kate Devine, young woman who had
been but too intimately acquainted with
him before he became an object of inter-
est to the Pinksrton detectives With
many years Of servitude before him,
and with load Of disgrace, that death
alone could wipe out, resting upon him,
she sought him behind the prison bars,
and at his own request the ceremony
he would disdain to have performed
while in the full enjoyment Of his free
dom was gone through. and minister
pronounced the couple man and wife,
after which, with few words of admo-
Eition, they took farewell of each 9TH
er-he to face his eight weary years of
solitary confinement and hard labor,
she to return to Carbondale and ponder
on the past and future. Scranton Re-

We lay thee in the silent tomb,
Sweet blossom OF day,
We just began to view thy bloom,
When thou art called away,
Thy geutle spirit passed away,
Mid pain TIE most severe;
So great We could ne. wish thy stay
A moment lorger here,
friendship and love have done their last,
And now can do no more;
The bitterness Of death is past,
And all thy sufferings Ger.

The Law On the Rail.

Some one who has taken the trou-
BILE to post himself on the laws gov
erning railroad passenger travel, says
that extra charges for failure to buy
tickets are universally sustained by
the courts, but there must be full
opportunity to buy offered by the
ticket seller. Passengers must show
their tickets when asked for. The
courts say passengers cannot stop off
land resume without the previous
assent of the company" In regard to
seats, a decision says A passenger
who exhibits his ticket, need not
surrender it until he has been furn-
ished with a seat A railroad is
not liable for things stolen out of a
passengers seat, there being no prev
ious delivery to company's servants !;
nor liable for baggage in the pas
senger's own care. Passengers who
neglect to look after their own bag
gage on arrival at their destination
cannot recover it if lost without
fault of the carrier.
