A Romantic Marriage.

From The Macon Telegraph and Messenger.
A quiet but rather romantic marriage
was performed at the Presbyterian Church
by Rev. A. W. Clisby, Wednesday after
noon, the particulars of which were de.
velOped only Yesterday.
The parties to the interesting ceremony
were Miss Laura NJ. Miller, of Jones
county, and Mr.. Louis A. North, of New
Jersey. The young lady formerly resided
in Jones county, but left there some time
ago TO seek employment In Gainesville,
Fla. The circumstances that led her to
take the step were the reduced circum-
stances OF her family, which had once
enjoyed the luxuries of life. Shortly
after her arrival in Gainesville she
met Mr.. North, who was travelling
in that section in the interest Of
the Tuft Soda Fountain Manufacturing
Company, and q mutual attachment was
at once formed. Within three days after
the meeting occurred an engagement fol-
lowed, ard Aug. 26 was appointed for the
celebration Of the event. Miss Miller left
Gainesville and came to Macon, where
she has been stopping with friends and
relatives.
Wednesday Mr.. North arrived in the
city, in company with friends, and In the
afternoon the party was formed and re-
paired to the Presbyterian Church, where
the marriage ceremony was performed.
Afterward drive over the city was en-
jOyed, and later the couple repaired to the
depot and boarded the Atlanta train for a
tour through the North.

Inc crop will be a good one.
A man in Fayette county has few
acres of cotton SO large that the stalks
VIII support the weight of good-sized
Doy. 1t is said that as high as 400 bolls
nave been counted on one stalk.
w. IL. Mansfield has field of corn below
Macon which is said to be the finest in
this section OF country. There are one
hundred acres in the field, and be expects
TO gather from it 10000 bushels Of corn.
Inc general impression was that the
rains In Putnam up to a few weeks ago
were abundant all over the county, but
there are places in different parts, where
but little rain has fallen since about the
18th OF June. The recent very hot wealth
er has been damaging to the cotton crop.
Perry Home journal: The first new
crop potatoes seen here this season were
placed on the Perry market last week.
They are sold from the stores at 75c.
bushel. The first new meal we have heard
OF this season from the new crop of corn
was brought to Perry last Monday, and
sold from the wagon at zoe. per busnel.
Many OF the farmers of Columbia have
formed society called the 'Columbia
County Agricultural Society" tor the pur-
pose of benefivtng themselves In the sci

erect building on the same and meet

tanning to agriculture.
Columbus EnQulrer-Sun: Reports of
damage TO the cotton crop by rust and
caterpillars are becoming more numerous
and positive. Some say that the crop, in
many localities in this section, will be cut
short at least % per cent. The indications
are that the present crop will be gathered
and marketed comparatively early in the
season. AS much as 200 pounds a day
can be picked now by one hand on some
plantations.
Thomasville Times: Mr.. T. Il. Black
shear left the largest pear we have seen
this season at our office Monday. 1t
weighs 1917 ounces-just half AN ounce
more than pound. On Monday Mr.. l..
A. Varnadoe brought to our office bunch
OF Kietfer pears that was indeed Won
der. In one bunch, and evidently from
one fruit ball, were twelve well developed
and good sized pears. The cluster must
have weighed five pounds, and the only
wonder is that the limb could have sus-
aimed such weight.

his corn grow. When ii Was harvested he
found that he couldn't sell it-there was
no market. So he did as he saw his neigh
bors doing; he burnt the corn for fuel to
warm the winter hearth. Towards spring

but learned that his 5 90 was locked up in
Allaire's sudden bankruptcy. In March

ride now and then, but walked some 500
miles in all before he set foot again in the
old boiler-works where he first worked
when he arrived in America. He soon
became foreman of the works, and from
his humble beginning rose to the eminence
OF the leading American shipbuilder.

A Wonderful Nest.

In the picture gallery of Charlton
Park, Lord Suffolk's place, near Malmes-
bury, England, is a glass case contain
ing the skin and feathers of a big crow.
The creature had been caught and nailed
to tree with other vermin, a fate which
SO many thousands of crows share yearly
that there is nothing in this. The extra
ordinary part of the matter is that in the
shelter of his wings, where his body
was before il decayed, little wren had
built itself an exceedingly neat little
nest. With wonderful dexterity the tiny
bird had contrived to fasten together the
wings Of his dead enemy, whose body he
proposed to utilize; the entrance to the
nest was where the crows breast had
been, and here the family of little wrens
was reared. The nest was observed,
and when its occupants had flown away
Lord Suffolk had it carefully removed
and placed in his picture gallery. Z.
