Married His Brothers Ex-Wife.

The Connecticut papers record a rather
peculiar marriage which was recently
solemnized in a New Haven Justices office.
Elisha Crandall of Wellsville, N. Y, ap.
peared before the justice with a lady on
his arm and briefly explained the nature
of their quest. When the name of the
bride was asked it was discovered that
she, too, bore the name OF Crandall, and
further inquiry developed the fact that she
was the divorced wife of the anxious
groom's brother. The home Of the bride
expectant had been In Alfred Center, N.
Y, where but a short time before the de.
cree of separation had been issued by q
court. Fearing possible trouble as the re.
suit of their unusual proceeding II carried
out in New York the bride and groom
journeyed to New Haven. where the cere-
mnny was quietly performed. The ex'
husband of the blushing bride was not
among the few witnesses present.

The herring is the silliest Of fish. He
goes into a weir through a wide door, and
might easily go out through the same
opening. Once inside, however, he swims
around and around in circles, and Is
frightened by the waving Of the wire
brush in the water from approaching the
sides. SO he stays in and Is lost.

A QueAtiOm Of VeracttY for Stahl-
man aud POraer 10 Settle.

Nashville american: Elsewhere may
be found card from Mr.. Stahlman in
reply to the interview had with him
by Mr.. Porter, of the Philadelphia
Press. In this Mr.. Stahlmau denies
most emphatically the material por-
ton OF the interview as to q purpose
upon his part and that OF the railroads
Of the State to unite with the Repub-
licans to secure the defeat of the
Democratic party, This raises an Issue
between Mr.. Stahlman and Mr.. Por-
ter which we leave for them to adjust
as they NAV see proper. And we de-
sire to say further that we did not he
lieve that MI. S'ahlman CORRECTLY
represented the tehtiment Of all rail-
road men ia Tennessee or elsewhere
upon this subject. The great majority
of those connected with the rail-
road and manufacturing interests OF
the South, are tried and ne Demo-
Gratis, and must be distinguished from
the few politico-corporate agents,
whose business it is to etir up strife
between these corporations and the
people and to meddie too much with
the governmental affairs OF the State.
The grest bulk CT the people Ct Ten
nessee want to do complete justice to
the railroads, and il left to themselves
will do so, The real trouble between
the people and the railroads does not
arise 60 much from prejudice and hos
tility toward the roads as such as 1t
does from the bostilitiee engen-
dered in their minds by the con-
duct Of those representing the roads.

Nashville Union: The Uaion re-
ceived the Professionalism telegram
Tuesday night exactly as it appeared

nounced II a mistake on its face and
declined to print it, Inquiry in proper
quarters confirmed our suspicion. We
withheld it because of the tacit under
sanding we thought existed among

nothing that would interrupt the good
feeling that is growing among ID me-
Gratis that has been hailed with so
much satisfaction and gave 50 much
promise for the future of the patty.
Now that Il has transpired that there
was nothing in the ma tar, we believe
we did right in attempting to avoid
the reopening OF the perplexing differ
ences il cost Democracy 80
much to hea'. Mr.. S;ahlman
is an honorable man, confessedly,
and we are compelled to be-
lieve HIM. Besides that, the reasons
growing out of fair consider alton Of
the matt .r sustain his disavo val. Any
one knows who has had the pleasure
or occasion to deal with him that he
lacks largely Of being dolt, and he
certainly could be justly considered
very simple if he had claimed the
power to carry the railroad and indus
trial interests over to the Republicans.
That Is sheerest nonsense, aud OF
course he had too much sense to say
it. Besides, We know that the great

to fix his future political tt Itus or thst
of the railroads. He will deal with
the subject further by letter. As to
the railroads and industries of Tonnes
see, we knew that they neither had
reaton for political change nor bad
ever indie ed desire to mats with a

we had no reason to susp 'ct such de-
sire for change in politics, he alone
could speak as t. an interview in

The Art of Music.

The art of music is 30 modern de-
yelepment that it is only within the
last 200 years that anything having q
title to tie name of music has existed.
Modern or music proper had its rise in
Italy, where most of the arts in their
modern form also had their rise. Italy
may be said to have been the cradle of
the arts. The first participator with
Italy in the newly y-discovercd glories OF
the musical art was Germany. Italian
opera and Italian church music found a
sympathetic response in that country
But observe that this sympathy was at
FIRST entirely receptive. Until Gluck
founded national school of music for
his countryman, Germany remained
content to be entered for by Italy. No
creative genius showed itself then for
years. There were indeed composers,
in the ordinary occupation OF the word !,
but they were servile imitators and
plag,arists, whose creations, while
possessing all the defects OF the then
Italian form eKed its sole recommen-
dations--originalitya and pregressiyeness.
Fsance, indeed, had already formed q
st,,called national school before Handel
and Haydn respectively laid the gigan-
tic foundations on which the mammoth
modern structures OF oritorio and SYM
phony have since been raised. Thus
we see that the German nation. that
must be universally acknowledged the
musical natioa par excellence OF to-day,
was in its artistic infancy not only mere.
ly receptive, bu: also feebiy initiative, a
sure sign of stagnant mediocrity, but
clearly no obstacle to future original
| greatness. Journal.

A Successful Editor.

John A. Cockerill, managing editor of
the New York Word, is supposed to be
the best-paid newspaper man in this
country. His salary is $4,000 year,
and in addition to this SUN, he derives
q handsome income from certain shares
of stock in the St. Louis Post Dispatch,
presented him some years ago Mr.. Pulit-
zer. Nobody enyies him his good for.
tune; he has honestly earned it by hard
conscientious and good work. In 1879
he was ont of employ.n .nent in Cincinna-
ii, and offered to 20 to work for Is. NJ.
Chambers, proprietor of the st. Louis
Times, for S25 week. Chambers was
4 clumsy amateur and knew nothing of
Cockerill's splendid abilities, and SO
paid no attention to his letters. Cock
erill's streak Of good luck seems to have
struck him the day he associated him
selfe with Pulitzer. The partnership is
strange one, and was sneered at and
laughed nj for long time. When Cock
eril first went to the ST. Louis Post Dis.
patch everybody predicted he would quit
in disgust in less than two months. That
WAS four years ago. For four years
Pulitzer and he have been as mildly
friendly as sucking doves, and their
professional success is matter ofrecord.
