A Short Honeymoon.

BALTIMORE, Md, Mar. 25.-Mr5.
Ivy Russell, who was married just three
weeks ago and was on her wedding
tour, had her husband arrested yester-
day because she said he had threatened
to kill her and she was afraid of him
She relented at the last moment and
declined to prosecute the case. Before
leaving the police station Mrs. Russell
said she had enough experience with
her husband and did not intend to con-
tinue her wedding tour, but that she
would at once return to her home in
Florida. She added: II own a large
orange grove in Florida and am the
proprietress of the Hugell House at
High Springs in that State. Mr.. Rus
sell is an evangelist and preached and
held meetings through Florida for sew
ersl months. I met him about three
months ago and we were married just
three weeks ago." Mrs. Russell charg-
ed that her husband threatened her be-
cause she would not give him money.
He had represented to her that he
owned an estate in England and had a
fortune in bank, but she grew suspi-
cious and declined to advance moneys
for continuation of the wedding trip.

The NORTHERN NECK RAILROAD
Fredericksburg and section are getting
aroused about the proposed railroad
through the Northern Neck from Tide
water to West Virginia. 1t has been
an open secret for some time that Con-
necticut capitalists had acquired two
charters that were in existence for such
road. These two charters will at
once be consolidated, the capital stock
increased and the name of the road
changed. There is said to be great
deal of capital behind this movement,
and a great through line from some
point in the westt to the bay is contem-
plated. A large party of the capital.
lists interested in the proposed road will
shortly be in Fredericksburg for bust
ness talk with the people of that city.
Passing, as it will do, through vir-
gin portion of Virginia and West Vir-
ginia, where the untouched forests of
wild cherry, walnut, oak and other val
liable woods and the vast unopened de-
posts of coal will afford for all
time tonnage to the road, and being,
as it will be, the very shortest line
from any point west to deep water
east, saving in time eight hours over
any other route now in existence, the
road is destined to be a great line.
1t will also open up to western settle
ment and immigration the cheap and
valuable lands of tie Northern Neck of
Virginia, where a delightful climate,
generous soil and waters teeming with
wealth, offer unsurpassed inducements
to new settlers.

THE GOVERNORS LUNCHEON.
Mitchell. the Richmond negro editor,

IdE OfEhNOhS hONChGOIN.
Mitchell, the Richmond negro editor,
who with Teamoh, the Boston negro,
took luncheon with Governor O'Ferrall
in the executive mansion in Richmond
last Friday week, though the public
was not apprised of that fact till the
following Sunday, and then by Phila-
delphia newspaper in commenting on
that famous luncheon, in his paper, the
Planet, says: "As each ones name was
called, Governor O'Ferrall grasped his
hand, and he, in turn, introduced his
madame, who, with bow, acknow
lodged tho introduction. In no case
did she grasp the hands of the visitors
Both were complying with the strict
rules of etiquette, and in no case did
they display any sign that they regard
ed it as unusual for the colored officials
to be present. The health of the Gov
ernor of Virginia and the Mayor of
Richmond was drunk as the light re-
past was being enjoyed. Cigars were
furnished. There was no embarrass-
ment, and the conversation was gen.
eral."
In communication to the Times, of
his city, he says: II was invited to &C
company Mr.. Teamoh, being sent for
that day while a witness in a case at
the Hastings Court. 1 demurred at
first, but subsequently got excused for
the time being, and during the trip ac-
companied the party to Allen & Gin
ter's tobacco factory and to Patterson's
tobacco factory.
when we parted it was understood
that the committee had an appointment
with the Governor at 2 o'clock, and We
were to meet there at that hour. Mr..
Teamoh repaired to the Planet Office,
and the olher members went to the Ho-
tel Lexington.
"Mr. Teamoh and myself were there
at the appointed hour. The other
members of the party were trife late
and when they arrived all entered the
Governors Mansion"

the company who own it chose to elect
a new president. The laborers wanted
10 continue work, but as they couldn't
do so without somebody to direct them,
the whole establishment had to close,
thereby throwing several hundred men
ont of employment. This incident is a
