Facts About a Charlottesville Marriage.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
CRAwroRDsvILLE, June 27.-Yesterday after
noon Charles S. Darter was arrested for forging
note on lis father in favor of Charley Allen for
So The facts of the case are these: Charles S.
Barter wanted to marry Anna Price, and did
marry her on Thursday evening. against the
wishes of Mr.. Price, at the residence
of Elder M. M. Vancleave, who per-
formed the ceremony. In order to
procure money he sold some wood to Mrs. Geo.
Brown, colored for So, and 1t is claimed that the
money received on the forged note was to be
used toward the same purpose. John Rice gave
him ten cents with which to get shaved. After
tho ceremony the bride and groom went to
the home of Mrs. Hattie Dixon, where they re-
manned until Darter was arrested. In order to get a
marriage license, Darter induced Lew Wallaee
Peterman to make affidavit that he was over
twenty-one years old, when the fact was that he
was only twenty. His wife is about thirty zone,
and her father has taken her home, and will try
to induce her to ask for a divorce. Elder
Vancleave has not received his fee yet
Darter was TAKEN when arrested, before Mayor
Stilwell, who bound him over to court, and in
default of bail he went to Jail. John w. Fuller
afterwards went on the bail-bond and Darter
was released. Mr.. Price also thought of having
Peterman arrested for perjury. Charles Darter
is son of John j. Darter, who lives near
here. Charley Darter adopted a very
the clerks Office that he was over twenty-one
He put the figures '21" on card and put the
card in his shoe, and when asked as to his age
said he was lover twenty-one' and 1t is to this
trick that Peterman. it is said, claims to bave
sworn. This morning Darter got Marshal Ems
minger. went to his father-in laws house and
got his wife, Mr. Price relented, and all is
lovely. The case against him will be dismissed.

OUR delegate in Congress, Hon. j. B,
Raymond, is Of the opinion that the
Sioux Reservation across the river or a
greater portion of it, will be thrown
open to settlement by Congress before
its adjournment. He has sounded
many of the members on the subject
and finds but very little opposition to
the scheme, and thinks he will be able
to get the bill brought up for consider
alton ere long. IL Is very probable,
however that it will be reserved Who'll
ly for homesteaders, after giving the
Indians an opportunity to take un
claims in seyeralty. This will take ont
a great portion of the cream of the az
ricultural land, and, If required to live
| s months on the land before being able
to prove, and pay nominal price in ad-
dition, rs provided in one bill that was
some time ago introduced, it will not be
SO desirable an opportunity as many
have been anticipating.

County Division Scheme.

The atmosphere is full of county di-
vision rumors of various kinds and
several petitions with different pur-
ports, remonstrances, &c, are circulat-
ing in Hughes and sully--so much so
that one becomes confused as To wh?t
the ultimate object really is, but all
bear toward the dismembermen of our
grand old county of Sully In some
shape. The masses of the people of
Sully county are undoubtedly we'll salts
fled with the present boundaries, and,
as it now is, we have as grand county
with as good class of people and body
o land as any in the Territory. We be-
lieve it stands us all In hand to protest
long and loud against division of any
kind-at least against any of the
schemes as now proposed.
One of the projects which Blunt is
said to be pushing for all there is in it,
is to divide Hughes and Sully counties
between ranges II and rs and form the
county of Pierce with the county seat
mt Blunt. This would cut some l3
towns from eastern Hughes and l6 from
eastern Sully, making county about
the present size of Sully, and would be
a fine thing for Blunt. Toappease the
city of Pierre for the loss of the eastern
portion of Hughes, this same scheme
contemplates adding the western part
of Sully county to the western part of
Hughes, with the county seat ut Pierre
thus obliterating Sully county from
the face of the earth. We are inform
ed by parties who claim to have seen
them, that petitions to this effect are
being secretly circulated, though they
are very shy of showing them in a
greater portion of Sully county. This
kind of division would not benefit the
people of the interested territory, but, |
to the contrary, would leave those of /
sully in much worse shape than they |
are now. and the new Hughes without
facilities to its seat of Justice,
which 1t now has.

Borne Away by an Eagle.

While the wife of Jean Baptiste Rom
lily, a farmer residing near the village of
st. Vincent de Paul, 10 miles from Tor
onto, Ontario, accompanied by her two
year old child, was feeding her fowls
A large bald-headcd eagle swooped down
and bore the little one off in its talons.
The child screamed from the fright and
held out its hands to its mother for assis-
lance, but she was powerless to rescue it.
The neighbors turned out with shotguns,
but the only effect of their firing was to
accelerate the eagles flight. The bird
alighted on top ola barn a mile away
and was seen to make several strokes at
the child's head with its beak. The
neighbors had got pretty close by this
time and succeeded in frightening the
eagle away. The child's body was re-
covered but life was extinct, hole hav-
ing been made in its skull and portion
of the brain devoured by the bird.

With the prestige Of age claimed the
welcome of youth,
And Carried the day against prosiac

In the loveliest nook of the lovelicst hall
Where no light save the weird one Of
moonlight might fall,
The old oval mirror has carefully swung,
And there, when the chimings of mid
night had rung,
The maiden who dared so to venture her
fate
Must come to the tryst-who should dare
but Kate?
The foremost in beauty. the foremost in

Berated and children and cherished the

And there shall she wait till shadow

Brown eyes that have longed on the

Till an arm cnfolds her and quietly stays
With strength that is far too caressng

To SAVIOR of spirit land, even to woman.

BY J. W. vALLANDIGHAM.


of all the world, the dearest spot,
That memory fond give thought to-day
Is one which meier can be forgot,
Where with others used to play.
My mind oft wanders to it yet;
And then, as in the days of yore,
| met with those there have met,
And play before the cottage door.
There often, when the sun was low,
And evening shadows ran out long,
As westward fast the light would go,
And night-birds sang their mellow
song,
We'd meet in ehilish glee to play
The games so oft played DER and DER,
And pass the evening hours away
.;With joy before the cottage door.
With marbles, tops, and other toys,
That children always love so well,
Which add far more to youths bright
joys
Than either tongue or pen can tell
We played; glad songs of glee were
sung
Sweet joys, we never more can see;
Such pleasures are but for the young;
And only once young can be.
Twas thus we many hours would pass;
And often, when we weary grew,
Wed fall asleep upon the grass,
Amid the drops of sparkling dew;
We were then kindly taken in,
And gently laid to sleep once more,
In childish dreams to play again
With joy before the cottage door.
Long years since then have passed away,
And some of those whom there met,
Beneath the sod in silence lay,
While others linger with me yet.
The cottage stands the same to-day
As in those happy days of yore,
And other children gladly play
As we did then before its door.

IL was expecting to see onl,
Sammy" she said 81 was it'll
startled"
She held out her hand timidly
and Vreeland took it. He was fill
ed with wonder at this gentle ignor
ing of the true cause of her fright
and he felt a quick thrill of graft
tude.
Sammy is doing wonderfully,
the girl went on; "you come il
when school is in session and hea
him"
She had moved back to the stove
and lifted off its covers, and was
trying to hoist a huge knot into it.
Vreeland took it from her, and
dropped it into the glowing bed
within.
81 always do it; it makes Goals to
start the fire in the morning." said
the girl, looking up with a smile.
She fastened Il window, and took
up her empty dinner pail and the
door closed upon the three.
Little McGill, startled from his
drowsiness by the sound, stood
looking after them as they went
down the path-staring in dull be-
wilderment from Vreland's broad
shoulders to the slender form of the
schoolmistress, and thence to the
little figure which formed connec-
ting link between them.
Two theories were advanced in
explanation of the remarkable &C.
currence which Mr.. McGill related
to a congenial gathering of represen-
tative Callihoonians, in the little
saloon across from the station, next
evening.
One was that the schoolmistress
had defended her principles, settled
matters in her favor, and reduced
Vreeland to meek subsection by re-
sorting to the prompt and spirited
course of knocking him down. The
second and more widely credited
was that Mr.. McGill, not having
been in responsible condition at
the time, had, observing Vreeland
in the act of leaving the school
house after successful bullying of
the teacher, magnifed his retreating
figure into two, the second having
gradually taken on the form of the
schoolmistress, and Sammy having
been thrown in an afterthought by
an effort of fertile Imagination.
The representatives of Callihoon,
having settled the point satisfactory
were totally unprepared for the SER
les of events which quietly ensued
and which, being duly reported
aroused successfully, incredulity, !
amaze ment and alarm.
The reports in their order, were
Sammy's education was peacefully
progressing that Vreeland had visited
the school that he had taken to black
ing his boots and wearing hat with a
narrow brim that he had driven the |.
home to Gowanus at the
end Of the term, and gone after her at
the beginning of the next and that he
had consulted Bolton City architect |
about the building of new house. And |
these reports were unpleasantly substan-
tiated by the fact of Vreeland's gradual
with drawal from his old haunts and |
neglect of his old companions, who, hay
by sad degrees given up all hopes of him
resigned themselves to observing, with
and compassionate interest the
progress Of his backsliding
The climax, was reached, when one
mild spring day whose warm air and
blue sky seemed to soften even CALI |
hoon's ruggedness, the station master
came across the street to announce sol
EMMY that the "CallihoOn, Bolton CITY
and Gowanus Express" had that moment
borne away a wedding party-Vreeland
