TANGLED LIVES AND FORTUNES.
An Ugly Mess Brought Out BY a Suit Filed
at Memphis.

AT memphis
Memphis Special to Louisville Courier Journal
Rose Elizabeth, a comedy mulatto woman,
thirty eight years OF age, who was married in
April last to Patrolman Burrill Randolph, of
caused to-day by the fling of a bill by Randolph
and his wife against A. c. Brewer and his wife,
and Thomas d. Coffee and his wife and chill
dren. to recover possession of a large amount of
valuable property which was devised to Rose
Randolph by the late Matthew j. Coke, man
of wealth and influence, residing in the vicinity
of Holly Springs Miss. The bill relates that
when Rose was seven years of age, she and her
mother were purchased by Coke, and remained
his slaves until the close of the war, when Rose
was twelve years old. Coke, who was unmar-
ried. took her for his wife, and she was recog
nized by him. She bore him seven children,
and remained true to him until his death, two
years ago. All of their children are dead, one
of them having lived almost to womanhood. In
1880 Coke removed from Mississippi to Mem
phis, purchasing a house Linden street,
where he continued to live with Rose his
wife. Their life together is said to have been
very happy, the infatuated planter treating his
companion tendery, and showing at all times q
deep anxiety for her welfare, going SO far to
employ teachers who regularly visited her for
time their relations being well known to all
of Coxes family. He concluded. in 1870. that he
would make Rose his wife in law, she has
been long in fact and in the latter part of
the year named. they were married in q room at
the Overton Hotel, this city, by negro preacher
named Joseph Ross, who is now dead There
We're no witnesses. Fearing that the ceremony
was not valid, they went to the town OF Grenada,
Miss. one hundred miles South of Memphis, in
the summer of 1875 and the marriage ceremony
was again performed-Wm Price and Onra
Harwood being wItnesses-by A &. Mcdonald
a minister of the gospel The marriage was
lawful. and Rosa now has the certificate, signed
by Mcdonald She claims that she fully
apprised OF the contents of his will before hiss
DEATH and that he frequently expressed fear
that she would be beaten out of the property
which he desired that she should exclusively en-
Joy. Then follows the particulars of the efforts
of Brewer and others, which were partly sue
cessful, TO obtain possession of the property. 1t
is altogether very ugly legal and moral taugle.

At the Toboggan Slide.

At the Toboggan Slide.
To the Editor OF tho Indianapolis journal:
They say that one of our leading business
men, having been presented with compliment
airy ticket to the toboegan slide. and being
curious to see how the thing worked, found
himself one evening last week on the ground
proper. He was at first bewildered and amazed
at seeing them shoot along at the rate of hum
bred miles an hour. Several times his courage
failed him. but seeing the ladies in great glee
start over and over again. he summoned up his
resolution and made the fearful start and shot
like ray of light down towards terra frma. A
scream broke the silence of the night. which
changed into hearty laugh, however, before
he reached the straw pile at the far off end of
the slide.
And no one enjoyed the fun the rest of the
evening more than our upright and downright
respectable, hearty and good-natured John, who
now says that getting down in the world is not
such q bad thing after all, and went home hum
ming:
That if you're Young, or If you're DID,
Or if you're warm, or if your cold,
You'll never know, as I've been told,
When you do go tobogganing.

A Remarkable Religious Revival in q Littl
Indiana Town.

Cincinnati Special to New York World.
TIE little town of Westport, Just over the In
diana line, and the adjacent county. particularly
that in the immediate vicinity of Wesley Chapel.
q small Methodist church, three miles from the
village, is the scene of remarkable religious
awakenings, full of almost miraculous incidents.
attracting paople nightly from a score of miles
about. Westport and its vicinity has generally
been considered a rather turbulent section of
Indiana, though it really deserved such rep
utation. A gang of lawless fellows, few in num-
Der but bold and unusually vicious, was the sole
cause of the bad name, most of the people being
intelligent and law-abiding. A few weeks ago
the pastor of the church, Rev. John Porter. be-
gan series of meetings designed to revive the
dropping church, whose membership consisted
largely of women. The meeting had hardly be-
gun when one OF the leading lady mem bers was
found to have fallen from grace. The pastor
sore distressed and felt it was almost USE
less to continue the meeting.
After spending the greater part of the day in
prayer he went to the church greatly depressed.
In his pulpit he seized with an inspiration,
the funeral sermon OF the neighborhood. 1t was
a scathing address that cut to the quick Be-
fore 1t was half over women were falling in
faints and men groaned as if in agony. At the
close of the sermon the altar crowded, and
the meeting lasted until broad daylight Some
of the people were carried home in a semi
conscious state. That night the church was
crowded. and the scenes of the night before were
repeated with greater intensity. By the next
night all the county was aroused. and crowds of
people fiocked to the chapel. The excitement
continued. and it was not uncommon for women
to go into frances which lasted for days.
Among those who went through curiosity one
night was man named Carter, Westport ga
loon keeper. known the wickedest man in the
county. With him was his seven-year-old
daughter lilly. In the midst of the services the
little girl sprang to her feet and in marvellous
language spoke for twenty minutes. 1t is not
known that she was ever before in a church.
The people astounded and the father
shocked But beforeshe was through he was on
his knees praying at the top OF his voice. Be-
fore the night was over he professed conversion,
and with large part of the congregation went
to Westport, when with songs and shouts. the
liquor poured in the streets. Ever since
Carter and his daughter have attended services,
One young lady has been in trance for a
week waking only few minutes at time.
She has taken nourishment whatever.
