Rev. c. D. Jones, formerly pastor of the NJ.
E. Church, south, here, as we are confident
it will be read with keen and appreciative
interest by his many friends in this vicinity,
who will, one and ali, be gratified to learn of
his weIl-merited and continued prosperity.
His remarks anent the REGISTER are pecu-
LARRY grateful since he is IN able critic and a
man of such attainments that his commenda-
ton counts for something:

this is rather dangerous figure for pro-

On Thursday morning last, while out hunt
ing, Mr.. - Graham heard an unusal noise,
which turned out to be tramp on his knees
praying. This being little out of the line
for praying or other tramps, Mr.. Graham
proceeded to investigate, and concluded that
he had certainly run across Il crazy person
or one of the murderers of the Ste. Geneyieye
young lady, leaning strongly to the latter
idea, as he had his wardrobe done up in 4
red handkerchief, like the one described in
the reward postal card. Anyway, Graham
broke up the prayer-meeting and marched
the pious tramp straight into Judge Dinger's
office. On investigation, it was found he
had lately been at work near Minturn, Ark, |
on the railroad, as i time-check in his pos
session proved beyond doubt. The testimo- |
ion, also excuipated him and removed |
suspicion. The latter portion of the testi-
mony was not received in time to prevent !
his being sent up for twenty days, under the |
Yagrant act. Herman Schwur will, no
doubt, be better posted in the future in his |
selection of praying grounds. P. S. This |
pious tramp, since writing the above, has /
violated his parol and skipped out.
Sanford Russell, wfdower, was married |
last week, in st. Louis, to Miss Sophia Weld
man, of IrOnton. They returned to the VAL
ley Thursday night, and two nights later
were treated to IN d-fashiOned chdriUdT1
by the ''boys" of the Valley. The groom and
bride, it appears, did not appreciate the
honor, and Monday Mr.. Z. swore out war
rants against four of the serenaders, three
of whom were fined 81 and costs-S10.65 in
ail-fOr disturbing the peace. The other
defendant proved an dliba. That night
bigger crowd than ever, disguised, again Wis
tied the happy couples premises and made
the heavens weep for the murder being done
to sweet Harmony. This time the recipients
gave in, and came out and invited all who
were in the crowd to come next evening and
partake of big supper which would be pre-
pared. The serenaders then went home and
took off their DISCUSSES, and, we presume,
went to bed. But they didn't show up last
from fear that the groom
might take all their names for seance before
Judge Dinger, deponent Sayeth not. A cha
riyar is not very heightened affair, usually,
but a good-natured one; anyway we think
Mr.. Russell will agree with Us that its extir-
patton may not be best secured through the
medium of the Justices court.
