HUGHES HUFFY,
Newly Married Man In TroubIe-His
Wife Awaiting Development
The Groom Has a Faint.
Ing Spell.

l.. Broome. special detective for
the G & A. r. r.. nn Tuesday. April
2lst, swore out n warrant before ].
R. Giliiland, j. P, charging w. M.
Hughes, Of Laddonia. with having
stolen $3.50 of railroad coupon tick
cts from the c. & A. ticket office at
Laddonia. The tickets were taken
on the night of April 4th, and the
railroad men claim that Hughes used
one of them Ground trip coupon No.
800 between Laddonia and Gillian
stations. Mr.. Hughes says he is not
guilty and that he bought the ticket
from Mr.. Glen, the night man at the
Laddonia depot. The most unfortu-
nate phase to this said affair is that
the young nan had just been married
the same morning to a most es,imable
young lady of Gillian, Saline county,
and had just brought his bride of a
few hours home, and she refuses to
live with him until he straightens the
matter out.
MI. Hughes married the sister of
the man from Saline county who
carved Conductor Bob Dinsmore.
The brother was there yesterday tax
ing great interest in the trial.
1t is said that when Hughes wife
told him she could not live with him
until he proved he was not guilty he
tainted and wa brought to by a CO.
pious use of water. The case was set
for trial for 3 p. m. yesterday and of
course the result was anxiously
looked forward to by Hughes, who if
found guilty was liable to lose his
bride of a few hours. He said he
bought the ticket and talks as though
he was being badly treated.
LATER.-Geo. Robertson, attorney
for Hughes, returned from Laddonia
last night and says the jury found
him mot guilty. and both he and
his wife are as happy as turtle doves.

We hear some strange things hap
pen at the Holiness meetings. When
people get to that point at which they
don't know the difference between
religion and a circus, it is fairly safe
to conclude that they have left NOR
ality clean out of sight. There are
some sincere. There are some who
belong to this sect who are among our
best citizens, but there are others
who call themselves 'sholy pure and
without SIM who are dead-beats.

manuel Baptist church. Mr.. Ross has been

ant spirit with which she lived among them.

DANGEROUS. CROSSING.

Meeting of the Committee ON Rail-
roads and Bridges.
The Committee on Railroads and Bridges
held a meeting last evening.
A petition was presented, signed by George
F. Scott, W. F. Peekham and about two
hundred others, for gate ON Shelton avenue
where the Northampton railroad crosses the
street.
Several residents of the Ninth ward ap
peared in favor of the petition. The street
is travelled a great deal and the horse cars
pass every fifteen minutes. There is a school
house near by where there are many scholars
who persist in fqlpTipgg before the trains. II
there was gate there and tender this
could be stopped. Within the past
year two accidents have happened,
one fatal 1t is quite frequent that the horse
cars come very near being caught. The driv-
ers are not able to see the trains, as houses
on each side of the track cut off the view.
The trains run by the point at rapid rate.
Mr.. Coe, one of the drivers on the Center
vile horse railroad, said that although the
drivers used great caution in crossing they
were in great danger. When the wind blows
whistle cannot be heard, as the horse cal
makes considerable noise running. Any
haste in crossing renders the car liable to
accident from broken wheel
The committee recommended that gate
with tender be placed at the crossing.
