A STRANGE TURN OF INSANITY.
Bride and Groom Burn Relatives
House, Then Drown Themselves.

The bodies Of Miller Ripley, aged 25,
and his young wife were found in Haw-
kins county, near Chattanooga, Tenn.
The couple had been missing for sew
eral days. It appears they burned the
residence of Henry Sutherland, a
brother of Mrs. Ripley last Saturday
night. From her brothers home they
went to the Holston river and drowned
themselves. A note found in Ripley's
pocket requested that the bodies be
buried in the same coffin. The cause
of the act is supposed to have been i'll
feeling between the Ripley and Suther-
land families. Ripley was highly con-
nected and had been i'll the United
States army fer some time. They had
only been married ten days, Two walls
of laudanum were found near them, and
they had cut the bell rope from the
church, evidently for the purpose of
tying themselves together. Before
taking the fatal leap they piled their
outer garments and saddles in a church
and let their horses loose. Ripley was
a close kinsman Of Col. Ripley, OF
Knoxville, attorney for the Southern
Railway.

All He w anted.

Emory otorrs lost divorce case by
the wit of his opponent. He had
brought suit for divorce on behalf of a
woman, who asked for possession of
two children. The husband made Wig
orous protest, and employed a young
lawyer of ability to defend the suit.
The defense had the best case, so far
as the evidence went, but Mr.. Storrs
made one of his characteristically
strong speeches, with an eloquent plea
on behalf of the mother and her two
children. The effect on the jury was
apparent. He concluded his speech
with that trite exclamation Of Patrick
Henry, "Give me liberty or give me
DEATH"
The young attorney arose deliberately
and said:
"Mr. Bailiff, you can give me a glass
Of water"

rapid night Of timo should indicate the
speed with which we are hastening TO
the end OF our being. The flowers Of
spring time, the bloom OF summer and

Every year that we number In thia
