LOVE LAUGHS AT LOCKS.

Wedding In q Memphis Jail, After Which
the Groom Took a solitary Tour.
Something of social function oc-
CARED in the county Jail at Memphis,
lately, when Charles E. Ward, who is
imprisoned for counterfeiting, was
married to Miss Nora Anderson of
Woodstock, Tenn. Ward is about
80 years old, while Miss Anderson Is
about 20. The ceremony was per-
formed by Squire Garvin in the lobby
of the Jail, and was witnessed by q
score or more of people. some friends
of the parties, while others were at
tracted by the novelty of the proceed
inga
Ward was a farmer until he tried
to better his condition by making au6
passing counterfeit money. The
money he made was very rank couu-
terfeit and easily detected, which is
the cause of his present situation.
Ward pleaded guilty to the charge of
counterfeiting before the United
States court, and his sentence Is pend
ing.
He has been engaged to Miss Alder
son for four years, and she was will
ing to marry him regardless of the
fact that for several years he will be
compelled to make his residence in
the penitentiary, and he thought it
would be better for all parties con-
cerned that it should be so.

A New York Lawyers Experience With
q Party of Drummers.
New York lawyer travelling in the
South west found himself one evening
in the smoking compartment of q
sleeper, the other occupants of which
were drummers.
The travelling salesmen were, as
usual, friendly and communicative.
They talked of trade aud of averagi e
expen-e accounts, and at last all be-
came very well acquainted.
The lawyer, however, remained
silent, comnuning with himself He
had been retained upon a delicate case
and was travelling toward O city, the
objective point also of the commercial
tourists, to attach a stock of goods
He did not, therefore, care to reveal
his identity.
After while one of the drummers
attempted to open up conversation
His first remarks were civil enough
and were promptly answered. Then
the drummer made bold enough to
ask him his business
"What line do you carry?" he asked.
Il beg your pardon. l don't under

''What house?"
'Oh, am in business for myself"
Then came a long interval, in which
no one spoke. Finally, in despera-

''Certainly," replied the lawyer; 81

Another long interval, and then the
drummer turned to one of his more
communicative friends and whispered

The old man leaped from his chair.
He was straight as an Indian, consider
ably over feet in height, there was no

braced himself for inspection, stood out
like wrought steel.
General Thomas obeyed the old man,

There were nine dead men within the

buried, marking the graves as best we

We carried over the survivors and

go on there and stay till we were ready

man replied:

General Thomas, and be shook the old

quarters OF the mastering officer, and
that night met the captain disguised
in an army overcoat, and he was as
proud Of his muster in as West Point
cadet is when be gets his first commits
sion.
Through Andrew Johnson, who soon
after this became military governor Of
Tennessee, Hugh Beatty was commits
stoned cap' lin, but his knowledge Of
the mountains was SO great that instead
of being assigned TO q regular command,
he was detailed TO act as guide and
scout with the brigade which, under
Colonel Garfield, began spring cam
paign in 1862 against the Confederates,
who, under Humphrey Marshall, occu-
pied tho mountains along the head wa
ters Of the Big Sandy and extending
down to Cumberland Gap.
When the Union forces under our
General Morgan seized aud fortified the
gap in the early summer, Captain Beat
ty applied for and received months
leave of absence. AT this point he was
only about 30 miles from his old home,
and although that territory was sup
posed to be inside the onemy's lines the
desire TO see his wife and ''to l'arn how
things had gone with the wimmin folk
and the chillen ovah OH Batty's crick"
was too strong TO be resisted.
The old scout knew that IL he COM
municated his purpose TO any of his
friends i'm General Morgan's army he
would bo restrained. He still had with
him the ragged butternut clothes in
which he came through with his kins-
men to our lines, and arraying himself
in these, and with an army rifle, he
started from the gap and eluded our
pickets and those of the enemy, then in
some force over in Powell's valley.
