laternoon. de has been maturing his
plans for some time, but desired to be sure
before he took decided action. As delays
are often dangerous, he concluded that
last Sunday afternoon was the most
auspicious time for him to make the cap
ture, but the party he wanted lived out
side of the corporate limits OF the city,
some two miles, and to overcome this
difficulty, he went before Judge Stone, our
Ordinary, and got him to issue the neces-
sary papers to authorize him to make the
arrest. This Judge Stone very readily
did. Armed with these papers, with car
riages and few friends, he visited Mr..
Zach NJ. Rogers residence and took pos
session of Mr. Rogers lovely daughter,
Miss Emma, who came willingly his
prisoner. Rev. G. S, Tumlin was called
in, aud after propounding few questions
to Mr.. Parks and Miss Rogers, he dis
covered that beth were equally guilty of
falling in love with each other, and he
placed them both under the bonds of
matrimony, and let them so on their own
recognizance, trusting that the letters OF
love that bound them in the marriage OBJ
legation might be conducive to their
mutual happiness and prosperity The
JOURNAL extends its best wishes, and con-
graduates Mr.. Parks on this most impor
tant capture of his life.

BEN ELY, the negro, who was convicted
last week in Birmingham OF numbering a
white man, named Meadows, has been SEN
fenced to be hanged on Friday the 18th of
April, 1890. 1t is generally believed that
Ely is the negro who murdered and
robbed Mrs. Hargrove in this county. In
fact it has been stated, so we learn, that
he told detective that he and another
negro did the killing, and also stated the
amount of money obtained This may or
may not be true. Last June, he denied to
the writer that he killed Mrs Hargrove.
He is greatly affected by his death SEN
tence and is just beginning to realize his
condition, and will probably confess before
he is hung.
