BaEdNin's Victorious Voiante.

New YORK, Aug, 9th.-The Tri-
hune says: Excepting Dewdrop.
there is hardly a horse on the turf
today that could give Voiante a
race. She could beat him, but she
has many valuable stakes to run
for, and they are at her mercy. The
Dryers have upheld the supremacy
of the East even against great odds
and they will do it again if occasion
presents itself. Miss Woodford is
practically broken down. The
Dryers say is is not likely that she
will eyer come to the post again.
She will be bred to Hindo. The
bre aking down of Miss Woodford
is not the only misfortune the
Dryers have met with. The speedy
Pontiac is also amiss. The Dryers
paid $l7, 800 at the Rancocas sale
for him. He is worth a good deal
of money as a stallion, but race
horse is what they want. Miss
Woodford and Pontiac out, they
will have to depend upon Dewdrop
for all their really fast work this
wear.

Day before yesterday AN agent OF
Marlette & Fulsom was in the city

could not get any.
Recently there was wood drive
which had reachei the Eureka mill
and been stepped by the dam. Mr..
Woodbury. the Superintendent Of
the mill came down to this city and
offered S. % day for men to han
die this wood which amounted to
200 cords, He raised the price to

not care to work They had an
idea that as the case was an urgent
one they could get more by refus-
ing. They reckoned without their
host, however, as the owners Of the
weed hired Cinnamon at $1.75 and
saved the wood. These are the
men who howl about the streets and
say that there is ii conspiracy here
to keep white men out of work.

INA NoRTON'S FOLLY.
A White Girl of Cleveland Clandestinely
Meets and MarrieS Colored Barber.

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. There Is great ex-
element among the residents of Brownell street,
thoroughfare that crosses Euclid avenue and
penetrates the finest residence part Of the city.
Last night Miss Ina Norton, pretty blonde,
residing at No 60 Brownen street. went to 162
Prospect street to participate in social game
of cards at party gathereds at the house
of Miss English. Throughout the even
ing she seemed extremely nervous, and at
10 P. M. requested some one to take her hand
from her. Rising from the table, she went into
the hall, and was seen no more. Her parents
who were present at thetime, were very anxious
about the girls disappearance, and reported the
matter to police headquarters. This morning it
was learned that marriage license had been
issued to Gus Barber and Merits /. NortQne Call
ing at the house. on Brownell street, a reporter
was met at the door by colored domestic, who
Immediately asked, "Are you a reporter?n An
swering in the affirmative, he was told that Mrs.
Norton could see no one. Inquiry of the colored
servant elected the fact that she was very we'll
acquainted with Barber, but Mrs. Norton who
had evidently been listening appeared on the
scene and said there was nothing to be stated.
The reporter then called at the home of Miss
English. A number of friends of the Norton
family were present, and the following facts
were ascertained: The Norton family moved
from Seville O.. to Cleveland, three years ago,
and opened boarding g-house near the Hollenden
Hotel. Two colored domestics Were employed.
one of whom is at present with the
family. These girls had two lovers, Bragg
and Barber, both of whom were tonsoral
artists. Barber is colored Adonis. and it
transpires that his affections were rapidly trans
ferred from the servant to her white mistress,
and Miss Ina did not seem to be ayerse to the
came. Clandestine meetings were frequent, the
coored girl acting as gobetween and on
Wednesday afternoon Barber's coored chum,
Bragg procured marriage license for him, and
Mr. Augustus Barber was united in marriage to
Miss Ina Norton at the residence of the Rev.
Gassoway, pastor of the African NJ E. Church,
on Erie street. w Wednesday afternoon The lovers
then separated. Miss Ina went to the card par
ty, and leaving her hand with friend, she went
outside. and met Mr.. Barber, who was in wait
ing with his faithful Bragg. A carriage whisked
them to the Union Depot, and it is supposed that
they took the train to the East.
