Yesterday afternoon Mr. Ewing
Kinkade went before Justice Hart
well Ferguson and made affidavit that
Angelo Marie was keeping a house Of
gaming devices. Justice Ferguson
issued a warrant commanding the
constable TO search the house and
burn all properties pertaining to
gambling devices. About dark Con-
stable Emanuel Aiken, together with
Deputy Oonstables j. O. Lerty and
William Wilkinson, made a raid upon
the house. Aiken and Lerty went up
the front stairs, while Wilkinson went
up the back. Darkness there and
nothing more" The employees of the
house had been Informed of the in
tended raid and had locked up the
picO wheel and several other proper
ties in the safe, and turned out the
lights The officers succeeded in
capturing a few cards and dice, which
they now have in their possession.
They did not break open the safe to
get the other things. Mr.. Marie was
in Texarkaua at the time. Mr.. Kin
kade says that Marie wrote him an
insulting note, and this seems to be
the aust OF the trouble.

4 GRAVEYARD O%OURTsHIP.
a Stone Cutter, Employed 10 Cut
AN Epitaph on "a Monument,
MArries she Widow on the
Third Day.


Courier-Journal.
One of the most romantic marriages
on record took place in this city yes
terday, by which Benjamin Ferguson,
a stone cutter, was united to Mrs.
Amelia Wagner. The story of the
courtship and marriage is a singular
one, and plainly shows in what strange
channels love will RIM.
Several mouths ago the helpmate of
Mrs. Wagner died, and his remains
were buried in Cave Hill Cemetery in
the family burying grounds. Time
passed swiftly by, and after daily
visits to the cemetery Mrs. Wagner
became convinced that a monument
reared over the mound that covered
Ter deceased helpmate would much
improve the looks Of things there
abouts, So she had a plain marble
shaft erected over his grave.
This remained there for some time,
and Mrs. Wagner resolved that she
would have some inscription carved
upon the monument, setting forth the
good qualities of the deceased, and
leaving some memento Of her affection.
She looked around for some one to
carve the inscription, and at length
Ferguson was employed, and he com
menced his task three days ago. He
began work early in the morning, and
during the day the disconsolate widow
came to the cemetery to watch the
progress of the work. The stone cutter
was very much interested in the
widow, all the more from the fact that
she had a very handsome face, and he
thought it was his duty to console her,
He paused frequently between Il
strokes of his hammer and offered hel
words Of coincidence, at the same tim,
intimating to her that there was yet Z
bright page left in the book of life fol
her. By evening quite an intimacy
was established between the two, thu
widow thinking what a nice fellow
the stone-cutter was, and wonder
ing ii there was not some wBy beside
money in which she could repay hin
for his labors. On the other hand b
came to the conclusion that the mos
solid comfort he could offer her wa
BY offering to take the place Of he
deceased husband. He returned I
higwork the next day, and the wido'
also came. Matters were renewe
upon . more solid footing than befor,
and by night a bargain had been mad
, that the widow was TO pay him for h
labOrs by bestowing upon him h

hand, and be was to occupy the place
in her heart left vacant BY the death
of her husband. On the third day
after their meeting, yesterday, there
was a quiet wedding and the two were
made one. The inscription on the
monument remains half completed,
just as he left it on the second day.
He will probably renew his labors on
the epitaph as soon as his honeymoon

to stop their spindles, and yesterday,
at a large attendance Of spinners and

a request being passed unanimously to
