simultaneous Marriages.

At the A. R. P. church, in Potts riages of Miss Lula Parker MT. W. F. and pr. A. s. Ragsdale. The attendants were Miss Frank westerfisld of Texas, with Mfr. Tom Ferguson with Mir. Robt. Henry of Potts Station.
 Long before the appointed hour a large crowd of friends and admirers Of the young couples assembled at the church anxious for one glimpse at the fair young ladies and the men Of their choice, and when tho hour arrived the spectators were not kept in suspense. Promptly at six o'clock the young couples entered and with nuttering hearts and trembling hands proceeded up the west aisle and took their posi- tions near the pulpit where the Rev, Nj. Oates in a few we'll chosen and im- prcssivs words united them for life. The couples were apparently well suited and presented much elegance and g.ace-whersin they were unlike, each being the complement of the other:
 "Though both
 Not equal, as their sexnot equal seemed For contemplation he and valor formed, For softness she and sweet attractive
 grace"
 We hope the morning and evening hymn of their married life may flow sweetly on, without any of those breaks and discords which sometimes spoil the harmony; and that conjugal love, alway. fresh and ever growing will ap- prosch nearer and nearer to the mys- tical union between Christ and the church.

Wooten * Oates for the loan of dishes, etc., to the generous ones who 80 liberally patronized us and thus encouraged us to press on; and to the DEMOCRAT for the use of its columns.

TURN OVER A NEW LEAF

Now is the time to make good res- olutions, to swear of, to turn over new leaves and get better generally. Let us call your attention to one good resolution that you should make and stick to during the year 1891.
 It is: "I will patronize the Weimer Drug Co.'S old reliable drug house, 70 I can save money, live well and die happy"
 If you did not do this during 1890 try it in 1891.

 Iwish to return to you my sincere thanks for your kindness and pat ronage during the past year and by uniform courtesy, low prices and fsir dealing, endeavor to merit your con tinued fsvores. The past year has proven to me that q merchant who sells exclusively for cash and giyes better and more goods for dollar than the credit merchant will soon bring the cash trade to hls house. This has been my sndeavor during 1890 and it has gwen such unlver sal satisfaction that hsnceforth Jac- obson's motto will be THE REST GOODS FOR THE LEAST MONEY AND CASH oNLr BUYS. Wishing you all q Happy and prosperous New Year, 1 am yours for low prices.

A stable belonging to Mir. J. l. Gardner in some unaccountable manner caught fire last Tuesday af- rernoon, and when discovered was under such headway that exiting uishing It was impossible. A valu- able horse, delivery wagon and 8 supply of corn and fodder, were con sumed. Mir. Gardner's dwelling near by was saved by hard work. Several other buildings in tho vic, inity were in danger, but the well directed efforts of those who respon ded to the alarm, saved them from destruction.

Of the British board of trade. he was asked
what truth there was in the calculation
that England and the continent would be
forced to part with gold amounting to Co.,
0o0, 900 pounds to pay for the imports OF
American grain. Griffin ridiculed the
estimate. He said that before 100000
pounds in bullion could be sent to America
both the Bank of England and the Bank of
France would raise their rates of discount
and check the drain. According to Griffin
not bullion. but securities and exports.
will go TO America to pay for grain. I'm
dou btedly. he said. there will be a heavy
drain of gold for several months to come.
but the payments for grain will not be the
sole cause for such drain. An important
factor in the financial situntion is the silver
question. The stable American houses. he
declared. are making preparations to face
q silver crisis, which is now inevitable. by
making gold purchases in Europe. This
crisis, he said. would be the result of the
heavy issue of silver certificates in

1t Will Probably Declare in Favor of the
Pope's Temporal Power.
Although the Italian government has
Withdrawn its opposition to the holding of Il
Catholic congress in Rome, it is said that
the authorities will attempt to rigidly pre-
vent any formal expression Of opinion adj
verse to the unity Of the Italian kingdom
and in favor OF the temporal power of the
pope. Italy has SO strongly protested
against such utterances i'm Germany, Spain
and other countries that she cannot with
any consistency permit similar language in
the Italian capital. At first the government
was determined not to allow the congress
to be held i'll Rome. but on second thought
it was concluded that il would be better for
Italian interests to have the meeting in
Rome than in Vienna. Paris or Brussels, as
the tone would probably be less hostile to
Italy if the congress should be within ltal-
ian jurisdiction. Notwithstanding Italian
authority. however. the congress is expect
cd to speak plainly, if moderately, in favor
OF the restoration of the papal sovereignty
over a portion, at least. OF the former states
OF the church. The pope. it is said will re-
quire this, whatever the result.

will be argued. No matter which side wins
