Baby Bride and Groom.

tits not often the usually quiet village OF
Mallory has sensation, and when anything
out of the usual does occur it puts the place in
flutter of excitement. Mallory is in this last
named state at present, and the cause may be
briefly set forth as follows: For long time
past it has been observed by the friends of
both parties that Louie Badgley and Josephine
Howard, agedrespectiyely fifteen and fourteen
years, have been what may be termed
''spoony.n That is to say, they had all the
symptoms that are common to people in love.
So apparent and deep did the attachment ap-
pear that the parents separated the youthful
lovers. Whether spanking or solitary con-
finement on bread and water was tried as a
remedy is not known, but it does appear that
their love was of the kind that laughs at
locksmiths' and ''hard -hearted'' parents, and
that they oft contriyed to meet and com
mune. The result of this entirely reprehen-
sible but general practice in cases of the kind
was the formation of plan to elope. The
lovers hadn't even recourse to that dubious ve-
hicle, the hack, to aid them in their flight, so
they concluded to walk. Under the pretense
of visiting neighbor, the pair took their way
to the residence of Mr.. Sidney Roberts, who
lent friendly ear to their schemes. Mr..
Roberts son Charles was let into the affair
and dispatched three miles for a neighboring
clergyman to perform the ceremony. The
minister wac found and was soon on his way
TO make Two neartS nappV, ana get his wei
come fee. On arriving at the place the youth
of the candidates took even the dominic back.
The qualms of conscience were soon quieted,
however, by the prospective sugar and
the children were in the most approved form
made man and wife. After the ceremony was
performed the bridegroom went down into his
pinafore for the needful, and produced a
punched trade dollar, which he rendered to
s. his reverence This was not munilicent
remuneration for a six-mile ride on a cold win
ters night, and the dominic made no bones of
saying SO. A call of the house was rewarded
by the production of another fifty cents, and
with this fee the minister departed.
The funny part of the proceeding ends
here. The absence of the girl from home oc-
casioned her parents uneasiness, and Mr..
Howard instituted a search which led to the
discovery of his daughter. He was informed
that it was ''all over;' that his little girl was
a wife. His grief may be imagined when the
terrible news broken to him. What
course he will take is not known at present.
If the courts can help him, he will probably
resort to them. 1t is a great pity, though,
that the law does not place some restraint in
matters OF this kind on the men upon whom
it has conferred the power to make people
very miserable or very happy. Any clergyman
who will unite in marriage two people who
are manifestly too young to understand the
solemnity of the obligations they assume
should be deposed from his office not only by
the law of the church, but by the statutes of
the State of New York.-OSmego (N. " Times.

Terrible Coal. Mine Disaster.

RICHMOND, Va, February 4.
Particulars of the terrible coalm disaster
fcaused by a gas explosion) at the GroVe
Shaft. at Coalfeld, in Chesterfield County,
Yesterday were received here to-day, anu III
dicate that the disaster was even more noiii
bic than at first reported. Coalheld is MUS
hamlet in the midst of the great coai-pcus "a
Chesterfield County, and the mine IN winch
the disaster took place is about two miles dis
tant. ,
The scenes and incidents about the mouth
of the pit this morning were heart-fendlhS.
Nearly every family in the place has lost q
relative by the disaster, and, despite the ter.
rble snow storm of last night, crowd o.
men. women and children were crouched
about the mouth of the fatal shaft, shiverlng
from cold and calling piteously for their loVeo
ones, and begging that aid should DC sens
them. All the morning crowds Oh niiier'
from the surrounding country nave oeen
pouring into the place, and all seemed intent
upon penetrating the awful pit and learning
definitely the fate of those VINO are eehtohoeo'
Experienced miners say that the thirty-t"
men in the pit are undoubtedly dead, puI ING
wives and children do not give up nope, anu
there are not to be found those who can break
the terrible truth to them yet
This morning at eleven O'Clock the hrst
attempt to reach the bottom OF the smart was
made A large number of miners volun-
teered to 60 down in the bucket Most OF
them were young and hardy men, and were
prepared to take their lives in their hanos.
The older miners told them that the terrible
carbonic gas still fingered in the pit, ana
they realized the dangers of the undertaking.
especially as no connection had yet been maze
with the bottom of the shaft. Three stepped
from the crowd and insisted upon going down
in the bucket. Mr. Dodds, the Superintendent
of the pit, was one of them They were let
down carefully, and after going down loo
feet, gave the signal to be pulled up. Inc
result of their investigation Showed that at
least forty feet of the brattice-work III the
mine was torn up. They discovered no gas.
Like many similar horrors, this one has
served to bring forward another striking eVl-
dence of the devotion of woman. young
woman, just nineteen years OF age, living IN
Manchester, was betrothed to one of the VIC
Tins of this disaster. This morning, when the
Intelligence reached Manchester OF the explo-
sion, she at once started to walk to the scene,
distance of thirteen miles from Manchester,
the ground being covered with six inches OF
snow and the wind blowing binding drifts.

Engineer Irving's HerOism.

Now and then, in quiet times of peace emer
gencies spring up which demand the highest
order of heroism. One of those emergencies
occurred at Waynesboro on Wednesday of last
week Trains Nos. % and Il and 12 and 16 on
the Chesapeake & Ohio Road, going east, had
orders to meet and pass four sections of extra
trains coming west at Blue Ridge. The extras
were late, and as consequence eleven trains
were blocked on the main track above Waynes-
boro awaiting their arrival. After three Of
the extra trains had passed. the first section
of No. IA started out and commenced ascend
ing the heavy grade to the tunnel. Rain and
sleet were falling, and the engine of No. IA
being unable to draw its cars the engineer Of
the train Immediately following it, Mr.. r. P.
Irving, detached his engine from his own
train, and, coupling on the rear car of No IA,
aided the ascent After pushing the first
train nearly half mile, and giving it good
start, Mr.. Irving reversed his engine and started
to return to his own train but ere he had
reached it he saw a detachment of the train
he had left coming down the mountain at
rapid rate, it having become uncoupled from
the engine. In an instant the intrepid engi-
neer realized the peril of the situation. Thr-
teen heavily loaded cars were coming down a
seyenty-fve foot g.ade, and each revolution Of
the wheels was adding velocity to it's speed.
With rare presence of mind and an iron nerve
that few men possess, Irving started his
engine to meet the descending mass and break
the force of the collision. He ran UP to with
in short distance of the cars, and then re-
versing to tighten the shock, clutched the
lever in his firm grasp, and bracing every
nerve in his body, awaited the catastrophe A
moment and the crash came. The shock of an
avalanche could scarcely have been greater.
One of the cars climbed up on the boiler of the
engine and another was wrecked. But the
brave man accomplished his purpose. The
wild train was stopped, and the engineer had
saved many precious lives and thousands of
dollars worth of property.-Stasrton Valleu

RECENT advices from Indian Terri
tory say the Osages have ratified the new
Constitution and code of laws recently
adopted by the General Council of that na-
tion. The meeting was largely attended,
including the leading men of the tribe. In
adopting the Constitution it is claimed that
the Osages take long stride toward en-
lightened civilization. as the instrument is
in many respects similar to the constitutions
of the different States of the Union. The
Osages are also desirous of uniting with the
Cherokees, and movement with that OBJ
ject in view has been inaugurated. In this
the tribe will still preserve its iden-
i oSr and treat with the Government, though
coming part of the Cherokee Nation.
