Flour is stiff for the better qualities,

ST. LOUIS, November 16.-At the

who is the %jailer, aud who occupies a
portion Of the structure in which the
prisoners are confined This girl had
madea custom of passing Martini food
to him, and since his sentence she has
manifested a good deal of interest in
him, after spending half an hour
chatting in front of the cage. Reliance
was placed in her to such an extent
that to-day, while the sheriff was alb.
sent and nobody around but his wife.
this girl had access to the keys. She
released Martin, aud, tokinga Spencer
rifle and $75 belonging to the sheriff,
fed with her lover. The e,opement
was not discovered until a long time
after it had occurred. Parties were
organized at once and the search be-.
gan. The only trace found up to a
late hour tonight was at a point on
the Tuscombia road, where Martin

Little Rock Gazette 18TH

Little Rock Gazette isth.l
A singularly romantic wedding took
place in Little Rock yesterday even
ing. The elements Of romance are
contained in every wedding, although
in many instances they are not com
pounded into matrimonial bliss. In
the marriage yesterday, however, the
broken links in the lives Of a young
couple were welded together into a
substantial chain which will stand the
wear and tear of years, and need but
little polish to keep it bright. John
NJ. Hill is a printer, who came to Lit
tie Rock from Nashville, last Septem-
Der, and became a compositUr on tho
Gazette. He brought with him the
remembrance Of a lady who had been
his wife until lawyers and courts Of
justice took it into their heads, with
sublime indifference to sentiment, that
there must exist some incompatibility
between the wife and husband, and
granted a divorce. Two children had
been born to bless the household
aud after the separation had
been legalized the father came to
Little Rock. Notwithstanding the fact
Of the dogmatic assertion Of Law that
these two people were now as nothing
to each other-destiny willed other
wise. The type, as they clicked 10
the compOsitor's stick, Sc med to say
to him-"the woman who bore your
children is bound to you by ties
stronger than law" and sometimes
he experienced great difficulty in
keeping her name out Of the lines.
Mrs. Hill, too, as she caressed her
children, felt hat love was stronger
than law; that, in fact, it was a law
unto itself, so, after several months,
which will be looked back upon by
both the parties to this bit ofrOmance
asa dream, a correspondence was be-
gun. A natural difidence chilled the
heart of each at first, but the fire OF
Affection soon thawed out the un-
natural feeling which had resulted
from the unnatural separation, and it
came about hat Mrs. Hill deter
mined to rejoin her husband. The
details Of the trip were speedily ar
ranged, and yesterday morning she,
accompanied by the children, was met
at the Union depot by MIR. Hill. Yes.
terday afternoon they were remarked,
and not all the lawyers or courts in
the world can induce them to give up
that which is dearer than life-their
happiness.

AN INDIAN MEDIUM.
She Predicts a Severe Winter,
With Frequent storms Of
Sleet and SNOW.

The Semi Weekly Echo has the
following curious account of a couple
OF Indian women who have been
around Eureka Springs lately:
The Indian who has recently been
cured of cancer. and whose case has
been frequently referred to, is a wo-
man of considerable intelligence and
Of pleasant and amiable address. She
belongs to the Cherokee tribe, and is
a cousin of the chief. Hearing of
Eureka's wonderful waters, she, with
another Indian woman, made her way
on foot from the Indian Territory to
this place, YEARLY but patiently climb
ing hills, buying some food and hum
bly, begging where she could. When
she reached our city she had only sew
enty-ive cents in her pocket, and was
a stranger to every one; but she
said that God YVES her friend.
and helped her in time out OF
trouble. The two women rented
a small log house and began house.
keeping, the stronger one taking in
washing, aud thus earning a frugal but
honest living. The woman afflicted
with cancer is one of three Indian
babies bora Into this world about the
same time (triplets), and is herself the
mother Of two pairs of twins, aud also
a quartette of little papooses. She
processes to have been born with the
gift of divination, and can tell the
past and reveal the future, though she
has only lately put her powers into
practice, and never for money until
very recently. Bat desiring to earn
money in some way to take her back
to her home in the Indian territory,
she charges a small sum for giving
those who seek it, a glimpse into the
misty future. She predicts an unusu
ally cold winter for Arkansas, with
frequent storms ofsleet and snow.
