drive him there. Have you seen the pa
pers today the parson asked, when Mr.
Bright had accepted seat. YES. what

Bright has been making another speech -
And what was it about?" asked Mr..
Bright. The clergyman explained
Well" said the stranger, perhaps Mr.
Bright was only expressing his honest
convictions; perhaps even he may be
right" "Oh, no." said the irate clergy
man. IF had him here, would feel like
shooting him" Before they separated.
Mr.. Bright had promised to go to his new
acquaintances church next morning. The
theme of the sermon was Bright's speech
and at the conclusion Mr.. Bright thanked
him for his able sermon. AS the rector
was going home to dinner, a friend met
him and said; you have been preaching
under distinguished patronage this morn

you have" replied the friend; you had

Didn't you notice him in front. in the mid

EAGER TO WADE IN BLOOD.
Populist Editor Arrested on Charge
of Sedition.

Ripley, Tenn, Oct. 30.-E. F. Talley
editor of the Peoples Advocate, a popu-
list newspaper issued at this place, was
arrested yesterday afternoon on a charge
of sedition, growing out of the publication
Of an article in the last issue, of that pa
per The article is as follows: after
considering the matter, it has been de-
termined to hold a mass meeting which
all honest people are invited to attend in
the court house next Saturday, Nov 8, at
D. m. The object of this meeting is to
give expression to the determination now
formed in the minds and hearts of the
poole to die, rather than submit to any
thing but fair election on, Tuesday, Nov
o. That they have all come to this con-
cIusion, it does not require much time or
conversation to demonstrate. To submit
10 such glazing frauds as were practiced
in the August election is to surrender all
manhood and patriotism, and this the
honest people of old Lauderdale are not
vet ready to do, and before they will do
it they will soak the sod with their blood
Every honest man who desires a fair and
honest election is earnestly urged to quit
his daily avocatOn and come out on that
day and show that he is at least on the
side of justice and right. Come every
body
Editor Talley was arraigned before a
magistrate, waived a preliminary exami-
nation, and was admitted to bail under a
$500 bond. The law under which he was
arrested is a section in the revised stat
utes prohibiting the calling of meetings
OF mobs together for the purpose of in
citing a riot. Talley has frequently been
in trouble on account of his fiery utter
ances, and was recently found guilty of
Hpel and compelled to pay $1,000 damages.

70 MARRIAGE LICENSE NEEDED.
A Lawyer Springs Surprise in Court
at Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, oct. 30.-William Reardon in
the criminal court to-day raised a point
ofIaw which amounts to a legal sensation.
ne was defending Thomas N1cQuirk,
charged with perjury for falsely swearing
70 the age of the woman he married, and
Mr. Reardon moved to quash the indict-
rnent on the ground that there was no
s,cb offense under the law, as the mar
rage license act was not in force, and
no license was required to be taken out
nv parties who decided to be married.
This caused Judge Magee to remark;
why. Mr.. Reardon, you surely don't
make such a statement in earnest?"
Il do, your honor, and can prove it. The
marriage license act was passed in 1885,
end was amended in 1898. BY that amend
rnent. on and after Oct. l, 1895, parties de-
string to be married in this state must
take out license
The act Of 1885 and 1898 were sent for
and read to the court.
Judge Magee said that if the act was
CORRECTLY printed Mr.. Reardon was right,
and the present marriage license law
would not be in force until 1895. BY agree
uent of council certified copy of the
act was sent for, and the trial proceeded.
The point is a new one, and if sustained,
will make Pennsylvania regular Gretna
