A QUICK couRTsHlP.
How an Eccentric Illinois Farmer woood
and Won HiA Wife.

How an Eccentric Illinois Farmer wooed
and Won nis wife.
Jacob Strawn, Of Jacksonville, Ill, was
during his life time the largest farmer In
Illinois, and very eccentric man. The cir
cumstances Of his marriage were as follows;
Outside Of Jacksonville, couple OF
miles, perhaps, there lived quite q respect
able family. This family employed servant
girl. Graceful and neat in the extreme, and
possessinga very fair share Of intelligence,
this girl was q match for whomsoever
might take her unto himself. Jacob saw
this flower, and determined to possess 1t.
One day he rode up 10 the door Of the resi-
dence OF the fair maid, alighted from his
horse, and knocked with the butt end Of his
whip. The lady Of the house answered his
summons, and Immediately upon her max
ing her appearance, Jacob asked for the
servant girl
The servant girl came. jacob said:
81 want wife and have picked you out
as the most proper person for that position
can possibly find. I've never spoken TO
you before, but then that makes no differ
ence. I'll give you one week To decide"
The girl blushed aud was dumbfounded.
Jacob mounted his horse and rode away.
The girl inquired into Mr.. strawn's charac-
ter and standing, and was advised by those
with whom she lived 10 accept the offer Of
his hand Punctually, week later, Jacob
rode up 10 the door and knocked again with
his whip and asked:
as IL no or vest"
Blushingly the girl answered in Q low
5one, but quite distinctly:
"Yes.n
'rwell," said Jacob, ''let's see wen get
married the day after tomorrow, Wednes-
day. Here's some money TO buy wedding
outfit" and he threw her purse contain
ing thousand dollars.
The couple did get married on Wednes-
day, and no happier pair, during their life
time, was to be met with in the State Of
illinois.

Tho Cormornnt OF CountrIes.

Great Britain is the cormoranto Of coun-
tries. The splendid trope used by Webster
10 describe the extent Of Its dominion In
every quarter Of the globe is truer today
than at the time Of its utterance half cent
nry ago. The sun never sets upon the scar
let uniform or the ax.gatherer for the Brit
ish crown. Out OF the little island, once o
conquest Of the Roman Empire, has spread
q oolonizing and conquering people whose
dominion has spread TO worlds unknown
by Alexander and Caesar. No continent is
free from It's sway. From the little island
of Heligoland, less than mis In extent,
held under the very frown Of Bismarck,
and the slightly larger fastness Of Glib
rsltar, which is grasped firmly in the very
face OF Spain, Great Britain, having pos
sessions in every continent and In every
group Of islands, ascends to complete and
pitiless dominion over the peoples OF India
The mere schedule would I'LL a column. The
total area is nearly 10000 900 miles; tho TO-
tai population only less than 275,000000.

The Regulators were organized i'm the town
and were re-enforced by large number Of
men from the surrounding country They
first seized a negro "a years of age. named
Joe Velos alias James Modes, and conveyed
him TO the railroad track and there whipped
Iim numerically. Their next victim was an

When the three had been well hogged,
they " re ordered 10 leave the parish, which
they did. Not single man in New Iberia,
either officer or citizen, could give any tam
gible reason for these gross crueltieS One
man said the victims were thought to be
agitators. The next two negroes that the
White Caps turned their attention to were ex-
Justice of the Peace McGaffey and his son.
They ordered them to leave town, and as
the negroes took their departure, the Regula-
tors opened fire upon them with guns and
pistols, but they luckily escaped without in-
jury. After the negroes had left the mob
proceeded to demolish several of their homes
and places of business. Although a large
number of those who participated in the at
tack upon the negroes are known, no arrests
have been made, nor has there been any I'M

Gov. Hoard's First Veto.

Gov. Hoard sent in his7firs5 veto this
morning-of the bill amending an act to
authorize the.Centralia Pulpaand Water
Power company to erect dam in the
Wisconsin river. r The governor's.objec-
tons were that the bill conferred rights
and privileges in violation of the con-
stitution He said This bill confers
powers and privileges which, in my
judgement, are thoroughly in violation
Of section 81 of article of the constitu-
ton, which prohibits the legislature
from granting corporate powers or
privileges except to the cities. This
section of the constitution was undoubt-
edly adopted for the prevention of
such legislature. BY the terms
of the bill the Centrala Pulp and
Water Power company is author
lied and empowered to overflow all
lands necessary for their use, and in
case the company and the owners of
the land cannot agree as to price,
authority of condemnation is given. |
am clearly of the opinion that the legls-
lature has no power to authorize a
person or corporation to take the land
of another for private use, even for a
compensation. The priv;ledgesssought
under this bill are undoubtedly for
private use. In brief, [ may say that
there is both general and specific
objection to the bill. The general
objection is that it confels corporate
powers and privileges in violation of
the constitution; the specific objection
is that it permits the taking of private
property for private use"
The legislature postponed action on
the veto till next Tuesday morning, on
motion of Mr.. r. Connor, who desired
to confer with the persons interested.
