sencral Cassius M. Clay's Wedding 60 al
Fifteen-year-eld Ward.


The only witnesses to the marriage
were MoClelland Richardson and DR..
Cassius Clay Smith, the latter physi-
clan of Richmond, KY. Dr. Smith re.
fused to say anything about the wed
ding, explaining that he had promised
General Clay not to do so.
It was learned that the ceremony took
place in the sitting room. The bride
was not dressed as brides usually are
She wore plain dark dress, was bare
headed, her long black tresses hanging
in an almost disheveled mass down
her back. She wore no gloves, had no
orange blossoms and carried no brides
roses in her hand. It was simple cere.
mony. The girl, who had remained sit
ting until General Clay and the magis'
trate arose, got up from the divan and
took her place beside her white headed
bridegroom. It was a touching scene.
The man who Rad led admiring thou
sands in crusade for human liberty,
who in his youth was a perfect Apollo
Belvidere in appearance, if not Ma
poleon in the cause of abolition, stood
as meekly as little child, with an ex-
preston of unspeakable happiness upon
his time worn but still fresh and almost
youthful features, and by his side that
simple, trusting country girl, as shy as
gazelle, knowing as little of the great
world in which her venerable husband
had played so conspicuous part as the

The ceremony was very brief, and when
1t was over the bashful child went back
to the kitchen, and General Clay and
his family physician sat talking by the
large open fireplace, in which glowed
two bushels of burning Goals.
And thus was celebrated one of the
most remarkable weddings that ever
took place in the United States Lou

There are 10 transatlantic cables, but

CLEVER CHECK RAlsERs.


IN Union Pacific Swlndled Out Of Thou
sands Of Dollars.
DENVER, March 5.-One Of the most
systematic and ingenious check raising
swindles ever successfully tried in
America has just been unearthed in
this city, the victim being the Union
Pacific Railway company, nearly every
bank in Denver and several dry goods
and other houses. The methods show
the swindlers to be masters as daring a.
they are dishonest.
Early last month the Union Pacific
pay car left Omaha on it's regular
monthly trip to Salt Lake City with the
wages Of the company's employees.
Closely following the car came a gang
Of check ~raisers, and its members left
the marks Of their skill with acid, ink
and pen i'll nearly every town where
Union Pacific employees reside. The
full extent of these operations and the
loss to the company and those who took
the raised salary checks is not yet fully
known, but enough has leaked out to
show that the check raisers have
Melted Thousands Of Dollars
by this swindle. In value the checks
ranged from $40 to 500, but each one
was skilfully raised to $11O and passed
for that amount at banks and stores. In
every instance the raised checks were
rendered for some small purchase so
that the gang got nearly the entire
mount in cash. In Denver the checks
ultimately reached different city banks,
where they were pronounced all right
and forwarded to Omaha. The Union
Pacific auditor then passed all the $l1O
checks as being o. K. and commenced
the balance. When the returned checks
were compared with the stubs of the
check book the fact became apparent
that the checks had been tempered with
and work at once commenced by the
railroad detectives. 1t is supposed that
the gang worked west to Salt Lake and
then escaped to the coast.

DOINGS.

The demise OF the divorce bill has
made way for new excitements in the
legislature. The new railroad bills will
now be the center OF attraction with an
occasional side burst at some OF the
partially defunct measures. In defeat
ing the divorce bill, the Black Hills
members got even with the Sioux Falls
cotorie for its opposition to woman SUI
frage. On resubmission these two ele-
ments were combined and it carried.
On divorce and suffrage they divided
and both failed. Peculiar ethics have
these statesmen! The Black Hills mem
bers are not averse to the divorce bill
but they want woman suffrage more and
will give the former to get the latter,
but not otherwise. Representative
Hair is stating their reciprocal position
made "a pointed hit. He said, ave have
resubmitted the whisky question and
have refused to submit female suffrage.
All we now need to do is to pass this
divorce bill, and then defeat the bill for

The senate committee has introduced
its appropriation bill. the annual appro

senate bill, virtually agrees with it IN the
total amount. The bill for the issuance

the senate; also a bill appropriating for

The house passed q bill reducing stem

folio and a bill reducing the salary Of
county auditor: killed the game warden
bill and bill establishing a school for the
feeble-mlnded at Miller. Much soreness
exists among members Of the house over
the action of the senate in defeating the
county deposit bill and retaliation is
threatened. 1t may be the cause of
bringing the bill up again in the senate.
The latter body passed Kingsbury's
revenue commission bill which vas
thought to have been killed. The bill
to create a new judicial circuit on the
north side Of the state has also failed.
Dickover's railroad bill, reported by
the steering committee, and making it
mandatory upon the railroad commits
sioners to investigate complaints OF dis
examination and prosecute IN courts, is
provoking a heated contest.
