Married Under DiaieuIties.

A Norfolk (Va.) telegram OF the 18th in
slant says: Miss Alma Faunce, pianist OF
the Boston Concert Company, was married
yesterday IN North Carolina TO Mr.. Smith,
agent OF piano company. The mar
rage took place under difficulties, and the
story is funny one. The Boston Concert
Company appeared here on Saturday night.
arriving in the morning of that day. 1t
was designed to give the company sur
prise, as the marriage was kept secret from
ali but Manager Locke. When Smith APP
piled for a marriage-license he was told
that under Virginia laws license could
not be issued for marriage in Norfolk un-
less the lady was a resident of the city.
Mr.. Smith then thought OF going to North
Carolina, which Is not a protective State in
the matter of matrimony, but found he
could not make the trip and be back in
time for the concert. The secret leaked
out and many a smile went round. When
Miss Faunce made her appearance next
day. howeyer-and ii was Sunday too
the party drove across the line and were
made man and wife. The party left here
for Boston to-day.

How a widow Was Captured.

A Pearson (Ga.) telegram says: Fol-
some months past rivalry has existed be.
tween bud Mobley and Bird Mobley. bro
theirs, for the affections of Mrs. Judy Nc.
Cook, a sprightly widow. To each she
pledged her troth, the arrangement in
each case being that the nuptials should be
quietly celebrated so us to be a surprise tC
the community when it happened. In thi:
manner each imagined himself to be the
sole possessor of the widows heart. II
was arranged with Bird Mobley thai
Widow McCook should meet him at a Ger.
tain point on Ocmulgee river. On the
night in question bud Mobley learned OF
the intended move, and went to the
widows house and besought her to come
out and marry him. This she refused Ia
do, and locked the front door. The disap.
pointed lover sat on the doorstep, and re.
solved to hold the fort until she should ap.
pear. When daylight came he gained ad.
mittance, but found that the lady was miss.
ing. She had escaped through the back
window, and, seeking the place appointed
with Bird Mobley, the two were married,
and returning home later in the day. re-
ceived the blessing OF the watcher on the
doorstep.
