form of a heart. Rev. Mr. Bryan, the rec
tor Of ST. Johns Church. will perform the
ceremony, Mr.. Whiting giving his daughter
away. The ceremony over, Senator and
Mrs. Faulkner will walk out at the western
entrance, followed by the entire bridal
party, and will be driven to the whiting
residence. where a reception will be held,

houses of the Soldiers Home.

Beautiful Southern Type.
The bride of Senator Faulkner is a beau
tiful girl of the pure southern type, with
large expressive brown eyes, wavy hair
and a complexion of olive She is very
graceful and stately. She is fond of dogs
and horses an expert and fearless rider,
and, If the Senator has never seen her re-
turning from a fox hunt, her dark eyes
sparkling with excitement, her hair escap-
ing with half-disheveed grace from be-
meath jaunty riding hat, her cheeks rosy
and radiant from the caresses of the wind,
he has yet to look on her in one of her
happiest moods and most bewitching atti-
tudes.
That Miss Whiting has had her share
of romance goes without saying but this
seems to be the browning sentiment Of her
life. Last summer she, with some young
friends. visited the home of a brother of
the Senator. There the couple met 1t was
a genuine case of love at first sight on
both sides, as the marriage of the two six
months afterward shows. Senator Faux
ner has been very quiet since the death
of his wife, three years ago, and has not
sought the society of ladies. He Is COM

Payment of Sugar Bounties.

The payment OF gold on ordinary obliga-
tions. with the threat of a demand for gold
for export, is causing great uneasiness at
the treasury and the most careful inspection
of every warrant drawn for expenditures.
The payment OF the sugar bounties, which
will increase the demands at New Orleans,
is like drawing teeth in the present state OF
the treasury balance, and they are being de-
layed as far as circumstances will warrant
The claims for bounty already presen led
during the past six months have been
$4O14,7I9, but the payments thus far have
been only S464,74S. of which STAT 1872 has
been paid on cane sugar, s2l2, 434 on beet
sugar and S1O4 104 on maple sugar. Ex-
penditures for public buildings and river
and harbor improvements are far behind,
and the only explanation Secretary Carlisle
can make to the Senate resolution of inquiry
on the subject is that the payment OF such
appropriations would bankrupt the treasury
and destroy the public credit.

FARMERS MADE WCTiMS.

Early and extravagant estimates" on
the cotton crop, says the Columbus Sun
dav Herald. seem little short OF a con-
spiracy to keep down the price OF cotton
and defraud the southern planters.
O'Neal. the New Orleans statistician,
estimates the next cotton crop at $780,
900. He allows 2,450,O00 bales to Texas
and the balance, 6,45O,00O, to the rest of
the south.
At best, the New Orleans man is but
guessing. And he may consider few
million bales pretty close guess. All
kinds of disasters may possibly come to
the cotton crop before it is matured and
picked out Indeed, the recent heavy
rains have already wrought serious inju-

BOLD SCHEME OF KoLBIrEs.
Propose TO Establish Dual Government.
Mass Meetings Called.

Birmingham, August 9.-After a two
days session the Kolbite and populist
state committees and Kolb leaders ad-
iourned this afternoon and gave out a
proclamation to the people of Alabama
which, taken in connection with the state

of the Kolbites is to attempt the estab-

bama. 1t has been current street ru-
NOR all day that they propose 10 organize
their own legislature, composed of as
many of the elected populists as would
go in with them and others whom they
claim were elected. The Kolb leaders
have been very mysterious in their meet
ings, and undoubtedly had some big
scheme on foot. They expect to get the
sentiment of their following at the mass
meetings called for August 23, and it is
expected if they are then assured the
proper backing they will undertake 10
organize government of their own.
The organization of alleged law and Or
der leagues as recommended IN the
proclamation is believed to be for the
pupose of carrying out this bold scheme.

is pretty sight enough, but the old

RESTRICT IMMIGRATION.

Ea branch of congress has passed an
5mm ,tion bill, designed to restrict the
paupeI and criminal classes from coming
10 our shores. The house has passed the
bill of Representative Oates; the senate
has passed the bill introdu sed by Senator
Hill, and has appointed cOnferees to con-
fer with theihouse and reconcile the differ
ences between them.
We.do.notassume that either the house
bin CT the senate bill is perfect meas

est duty of congress to reconcile the
differences in relation to this measure
and pass the best bill that can be obtain
ed to restrict pauper, criminal and an
archical immigration.
1t has become supreme public neces-
SHY not only to stop the influx of igno-
rant and brutal foreigners, who doubly
demoralize our labor by cheapening
prices and by lawlessness, but to make
every provision possible for the deporta-
bion of all such elements from our midst.
