Right Smart Marrying.

There is one thing bard times do not
seem to interfere with, and that is marry
ing. Money may be scarce and work
hard to get, but people will fall in love,
and marriage naturally follows. The rec
ord in TazewelI county for the year jus.
closed has proven no exception to the gen
ersl rule. During the year 1896 the clerk
Of the county court Of Tazegeli Issued 224
marriage licenses, of which number 1s5

She Tells why She Won't Give Back Miss
Fiiut's $4,000 GIT.
Miss Eleanor NJ. Ruthrauff testified in her
own behalf before Justice Chase In the Supreme
Court yesterday in the action brought against
her by Miss Helena Flint to recover $25. 900 In
bonds. The two women had met in 1885
through an advertisement. Miss Flint says she
deposited the bonds so that from their income
Miss Ruthrauff could be paid for her service as
companion. Miss Ruthrauff says the bonds
were an absolute gift and she would not return
them when, in 1896, after the close friendship
OF the women had been broken. q demand for
tho bonds was made. The bonds have remained
with the Second National Bank, and are regis
tered in the name OF Miss Ruthrauf.
Concerning the incident when she got tho
bonds. Miss Ruthrauff testified:
miss Flint came into my room in the morn
ing while / was asleep, and woke me and said:

tainty of Wills. want to secure you now, as in

In affirming q decision Of q District Court civ
ing Harry Appleton q verdict for e35 for the loss
Of . coat intrustod to q waiter at the Harlem
Casino, OF which David WEIGH was thon TO
ceiver, the Appellate Term Of the Supreme
Court says:
"on the question Of liability for the act Of
the waiter in taking charge OF the plain
tits coat and failing properly to care for II, the
Judgment cannot be disturbed. 1t is said that
there was a cloak room, but II was not conclu-
sivoly shown that the guests were directed to
It. 1t 10 claimed that there are notices dis.
played that the proprietors would not DO
responsible for overcoats. but this fact
was disputed, and tho fact may DO as.
sumed to DO found by the Justice adversely to
the appellants contention. The case shows that
the waiter took the hats and coats Of the party
when they entered the restaurant and sat at
the table, and. under the circumstances II may
be inferred that It was within the scope OF his
duty to do 90. The master would be liable for
any neglect to safely care for such articles.
Guests Invited to sit and eat at tables must be
expected to remove and lay aside their hats and
wraps, and the defendant was bound to provide
q reasonably safe place for them"
1t has been held In another case that n notice
posted In q restaurant to the effect that the pro-
prietor will not be responsible for the safety Of
his customers overcoats does not relieve him Of
responsibility.

The speculation In cotton to-day was dull and devoid
OF new or interesting developments. The fluctuations
in prices were confined within o narrow rance with
the tendency downward. Liverpool was dull and
easier and the crop aivioes were generally favorable.
but the worst feature was the absence OF speculation.

light, and stocks showed a liberal decrea,e for tho
