Love Will Have His Way.

q somewhat romantic marriage, which
would furnish good material for novel,
took place at Petersburg yesterday. A few
weeks ago Myers Moore, aged twenty-three,
and Rosetta Lse Ramsey, aged fourteen, left
Petersburg for Salem, in this Ssste. with q
view of goiug to North Carolina TO be mar
ried. The couple walked from Petersburg
to Salem. a distance of nearly two hundred
miles. Shortly after their arrival in Salem
a telegrem was sent TO The authorities there
By the father OF the yonng lady, asking fer
Moore'a arrest on the charge Of abduction.
Moore wss arrested, and ne, with the girl,
aas brought back to Petersburg In charge Of
an officer, who went from thsre after them.
When the case came before the Mayor for
examination. he WAS Discharged, as Miss
Ramsey saii che had gone eff with Moore
OF her own voli!ioa. Thursday night Miss
Rsm.ey ugaln left the parental roof, and 1t
was not until yesterday morning that her
father fouaG her. She had gone of to
f.ierds, where, Big appointment, che was to
meet the man o. her chnics and have the
nuptisl knot lied. Mr. Ramsey, being satis-
a ed that HE daughter was determined 10
marry Moore, gave his consent to the
unon. The license was obtained aud the
ceremony was performed al the residence
of the brides parents by Rev. Mr. Merrett.
Moore went to Petersburg from Baltimore
where be now has sister living.

The Stone Age

From the tools that are found in these
ske.dwelings, In the caves, and In peat
beds, We suppose that there we're three die
tinct periods In the life of mankind: First
came the Stone Age, In which toola and
weapons we're made OF stone; second, the
Bora Age. In which they we're made OF
bronz and third, the Iron Age, In which
iron implements appear.
We m1st remember that when the first men
lived they had nc tools to work with, nor weapons
with which to battle against wild beasts When
thrown upon III cir own resources to defend them-
selves they probably threw stones. think small
boys first instinct in fighting is to throw things.
They sCon found that sharp stones were the most
eff. ctive go they began to rub them together to
sharpen them. They next put pointed stones in
the ends of sticks and made spears. To cut uD
the flesh Of an finals they made stone knives The y
discovered tho use of the bow and arrow, for scme
Of the sharpened stones that are found must have
beor arrow heads They made hsmmers snd axes
TO give them cutting edge. They made great
atone mortare and postles for grinding corn.
at first there WAS little ornament, but toward the
last of the Stone d 20 the knives mad carved bono
handles, and even necklaces arc found of roughly
carved amber beads. They hal no combs nor pins
dor needles nor thresd in the earliest times But
they soon found out that they could fasten things
together with tho fibres of plants, or wish thongs
rnsde from the skins OF animals. They made i'm
PIGMENTS OF horn Viii; served Gs needles. They
carly discovered tho uso of fire. Maybe men first
got fro from volcano, or they msy have dropp-
cd or struck one piece OF flint on another ard have
seen the spark. 1t may bo that it set something
on fl 70 and they felt the ttect-the warmth. July

Rat and Tortoise in Battle

One of the clerks in Market street clothing

tortoise fow days ago snd turned 1t loose In the
yard in tho rear OF the store. In the afternoon
the clerks were attracted by an unusus noise
On repairing ihither they were surprised to hno
thst 8 big gray rat had attacked the tortoise AND
that battle 70 al was going on In few minutes
quito a or wd had gathered, but the combstants
were so deeply engaged that they psld not the
alightest attention to the mon. The rat, being
much quicker, would dart at the tortoise and bite
at il, jumping back each time 10 avoid the vicious
sneps made by the tortoise The rat at last sp-
pearod to resiz, that the she'll was an impenf-
trsble armor and then turned its attention to the
feet OF the tortoise. The fore feet were too near
tho scaly mouth Of its enemy, and in endeavoring
TO bite them the rat got several savage snaps. il
then began to attack the tortoise in the rear,
seiziog is hind feet and legs snd then spriDging
away rs tho tortoise reared up and endeavored
10 throw itself uucn its enemy. The tortoise
soon Iearned that it wasn't quick enough to
cach the rat BIZ tho head or neck, but perceived
that when tho rat made snap at its legs the resr
of the rodent wonld DO within easy reach. 1t now
became question whether the rat wonld be able

Wild scenes. The bull fever at the close ysster-
day was still on and now fuel was added to 1t
by the phenomenaly strong cables. Lon
don csrgoes for prompt shipment, according
to the Board Of Trade cable, were up l shi!-
ling and Liverpool 1s2 pence. Those who
cold around the top yesterday. thinking the
elimination had been reached, threw up
their hands and rushed into the pit to cover
at any terma. Stop loss orders from New
York and St. Louis shorts came pouring 10
and altogether there was wild eosne aad
all sorts of prices were bid and accepted In
different parts Of the pit at the same time.
Within two minutes after the bell tapped,

SONS trades possibly at 1O3 was paid. That
was the top for the time. however. A fl bod
OF country selling orders then began to come

we're selling right and left. This caused q
