MARRIAGES OF ACTRESSES. AM
erican actresses sometimes marry
we'll, as English actresses frequent
ly do. John Hoey, the rich ex-
press manager and friend of Presi-
dent Grant, married an actress who
played on the stage long after she
was his wife. Ex-Consul General
to Egypt, Butler, the nephew of
Ben Butler, married the handsome
Rose Etynge, who had previously
been divorced, and has now again
returned to the stage. Mr.. Louis
Jennings, the young Englishman
who edits the New York Times"
and who broke the Tweed Ring,
married Miss Madeleine Henriques,
the actress, who played in New
York some years after she changed
her name. Mr.. Writ Sykes, well
known in various ways, married
Olive Logan, who had previously
been wife, and who, ever since
her marriage, has been busy lee
turing and writing novels, but is
now taking a rest in Paris. 1t is
not true that theatrical managers
never marry actresses. Mr.. Dion
Boucicault, the dramatic author
and manager, married Miss Agnes
Robertson, who had been known as
an actress for many years. Mr..
Edwin Booth, the actor and man
ager, married Miss McVicker, Of
Chicago, who was an actress. Mr.
Strakosch. the operate manager
married one of the Patti sisters
who had been an operate per
former. 1t is not true that theat
rical critics never marry actresses
Several of the best known critics
on the New York press have ex
actresses for their wives. It ap
pears, in fact, that actresses In Thu
country are able to get quite a
nice husbands as other people.

Romantic Incident at Ss.

A romantic incident occurred on the
last trip Of the steamer Rotterdam
from Rotterdam to New ork, Amons
the cabin passengers were a Mr.. Van
Seller and Miss Maria Reuter-, who
were engaged TO be married. To give
the event an air of romance, they had
decided to have the ceremony perform
ed on board the ship in mid ocean. On
the evening preceding the day fixed
for the wedding, it transpired that the
young lady was the young mans half
sister. 1t appeared from explanations
given to the passengers, that Van Sel.
Ter left his home in Amsterdam when
only ten years old, shipping as cabin
boy on board vessel bound for the
West Indies. He revisited his native
place after lapse Of five years, but find.
ing that his father had died during the
interval, and that his mother had mar.
ried again, he shipped once more and
did not return until about two months
ago, when he was unable to end any
trace of his mother. During a visit to
Rotterdam he met Miss Reuter-, and an
at once sprung up between
them, which resulted in an engagement.
In talking about their early days they
discovered their relation
ship to each other. 1t has been ar
ranged that Miss Reuter- shall return
on the next steamer. The brother, be-
being rich, will provide for his sister.

Use the Roller More.

1t has always been belief of ours
that the true value of the roller has not
been understood, and we have received
considerable credit from our contempo-
raries for our efforts at various times to
have this useful implement better un-
derstood. What We havo said of it in
the past has chiefly had reference to its
use III the spring season, but as wo SEQ
farming conducted during the summer,
we are tempted 10 inquire whether even
| still more use of the roller might not be
| made with advantage We all know
how great 10 the value of well pulver-
| ICED soil, but we have come to regard
mere stirring with cultivator in sum
mer as pulverizing. 1t is to a certain
extent of course. No matter how rough
ly done, it is better than n hard baked
surface. Under this condition tho soil
dries very rapidly. Still the lumpy,
leaves the ground is anything but pull
veiiz1tion.
We see a tendency in some quarters
to favor hard-packed earth; but the
thorough pulverization we recommend
is very different thing from this. A
soil that is thoroughly crushed tine will
not dry out near so fast as one which is
coarse and lumpy, and this prevention
| OF the escape of moisture is as well wor-
thy of attention as the manure question,
the freight question, the cooperation
question, or any of the numerous onas
which are uppermost gust nov
1t is not. perhaps. easy to carry out a
plan after we know ii is good on- but
surely something could Ge done 10 keep
the soil from being so coarse and idmpy
as we see it so often after oui oultivators
have been over the ground There is
something wrong either with the soil OF
the implements. We want clod crush
er as well as a hoe-harrow let it be in
the form of a roller or what it may

STRANGE DEATH OF TWO LOVERS

| STRANGE DEATH OF TWO LOVERS
Marietta Remy, beautiful girl, who
had led rather gay life, died in Paris the
other day. She was known among her
friends as Opal, from the fact that she
always wore very handsome opal neck
lace. This necklace was given her by her
| first lover, who, at the time, said: You
know that opals are gems which live.-
My fate is inseparable from these. When
you see them become duh and die, too
shall be Mt the point of DEATH One day
they became weary OF each other
and they separated. But after he had
gone, Marietta found that her love for
him was still ardent and sought to recall
him. 1t was too late. he had left the
country. She consoled herself, however.
by looking at her necklace and saying
"rhe opal still lives. l shall see him
again" But about month since the
opal began to grow dull; then, one by
one they lost all their lustrc and became
dead. A few days ago but one remained.
and that gave only faint rehection.-
He is about to die" thought Marietta.
She fell into profound melancholy and
said, Il, too must die" And when one
evening the last opal gave its last CLEAN
she took poison and died. The same day

4 red hot meteor fell near West Lii

the ground and making hole ten feet
in diameter. For hours it continued
to spit forth flames. crackle, sputter
and smoke, and occasionly discharge
cannon-like reports. to the infinite ter
ror of the people in the vicinity.
None dared approach while this mini
ature volcano continued in action, but
with the cessation Of life hundreds
gathered around to investigate the
wonder.

We have reason to believe. did not ex-
tend more than four or Eve miles. The
storm first struck Mr.. Padgett's pre-
misses. where q co.Ored man was killed
and another had his leg broken and
his back seriously Injured. The dwell
ing was completely demolished, the
miil-house blown into the pond, the
cotton screw overthrow, u team of
mules, with the wagon. was carried by
tho force OF the wind into the pond,
and two OF the animals drowned. Mr..
Chaupny was badly hurt by falling
timbers. About ~ miles beyond,
the tornado. in its Notherly course,
did the greatest injury to lille and
limb. Here Mr.. Wm. Davis house
was wrecked. his young daughter
killed. aud his wife aud a young lad
living there severely injured. HALF q
mile further on. the roof OF Mr. Jas.
Thomas house was torn of, and other
serious damage done to his property,
and Browns Methodist Chapel de-
molished. The storm had cot spent its
fury when it reached this last men
toned place. and fears are entertained,
from the velocity and magnitude of
the tornado, that considerable damage
to life and property was Inflicted at
other points before the force of the
wind was exhausted. Even in Colum.
bia there were visible effects OF the
power of the tornado. as leaves and
other evidences Of the mighty wind
were seen driven furiously through the
city. We await further particulars of
the destructiveness Of the storm with
much anxiety. and would beg our

OoNsUMPT1vEs, TAKE NOTICE.
Every moment OF delay makes your
cure more hopeless. and much depends
on the Judicious choice of q remedy.
The amount OF testimony in favor OF
DR.. Sohenok's Pnlmonic Syrup, as q
cure for consumption, far exceeds all
that can be brought to support the
pretensions of any other medicine.
Sec DR.. Schenck's Almanac, contain
ing the certificates Of many perso.s of
the highest respectability, who have
been restored to health, after being
pronounced incurable by physicians Of
acknowledged ability. Schepck's Is Pull
monic Syrup alone has cured many, az
these evidences will show; but the
cure is often promoted by the employ
ment of two other remedies which DR..
Schenck provides for the purpose.
These additional remedies arc
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Man
dIake Pills. BY the timely use of
these medicines. according to direc-
tions, DR.. Schsnck certifies that most
any case OF consumption may be cured.
