HIPKINs-RAMsAY.
Judge Norwood Tied the Knot for
Two Popular Young People.

Mr.. Howard Hipkins and Miss Jessie f.
Ramsay were married last night by Judge
Norwood at the latter's residence on Abb
ercorn street The ceremony was a very
quiet and informal affair. only the imme-
date relatives of the bride, her mother
Mrs. Sallie Ramsay, her aunt Mrs r. l.
Davis, and brother Mr.. Roy Ramsay, be-
ing in attendance, with the exception of
the members of Judge Norwood's family,
who also Witnessed the ceremony.
The announcement of the marriage will
be somewhat of a surprise to the friends
of the young couple, though not entirely
so, as announcements of such intentions
on their part have been previously made.
Their fondness for each other was web
known, and it was expected that the mar
rage would have taken place some time
ago This would probably have been the
case had not a lovers quarrel resulted IN
a temporary separation.
Mr. Hipkins has been a resident of Sa-
vannah for several years and has a num-
Der of friends here. He had known NJ s.
Ramsey for some time and the two we're
engaged to be married. Some cause of dil-
ference arose, however as the result OF
which Mr. Hopkins gave up his position
with the postofiice and enlisted with Ray S
Immunes, seeing service with the reg1-
ment in Cuba in the capacity of regimen
tai quartermaster sergeant. After being
mustered out last May, Mr. Hopkins went
North to recuperate, but paid several visits
TO Savannah. While in Cuba with his Tegi-
ment it was reported in Savannah that Mr..
Hopkins had married a wealthy Cuban
heiress, but the report proved to be I'M
true. His heart was still in Savannah, and
it was here that he was destined to meet
his fate.
The little misunderstanding which sep
arated the two over a year ago had al
ready been satisfactorily adjusted, and it
was decided that they should be united as
soon as the groom could locate in Savan-
nah. Tuesday MIR. Hopkins was reinstated
in his former position assistant clerk at
the postoffice, which left him free to full
fill his matrimonial intentions. Judge Nor
wood, as a warm friend of the grandfather
of the bride, the late Judge S. S. Pitman
of bingham county, was called upon to
perform the ceremony which took place
at o'clock last night.
For the present MIR. and Mrs. HipkIns
will reside with the brides mother, Mrs.
Sallie Ramsay, at 402 Harris street, east.
The bride Is one of Savannah's lOveliest
young ladies, and has a large circle of ac-
ouaintanceS.

MOVEMENT OF COTTON.
Effect of the Increase in Price Being
Felt Everywhere.

Felt Everywhere.
The improvement in the price of cotton
during the past fortnight has attracted
not only the attention of the trade, but 1t
has proven of interest to the outside world
Seeing that prices have bounded upward
for several days, many are beginning to
wonder if the good times the farmer en-
joyed in October of 1896 are to come again.
The farmer is doubtless grinn.ng with JOY
over the condition of things, and is pre-
sumably getting a voluminous mail of
circulars advising him what to do
Cotton men on the Bay feel that the
market is going higher than il is at pres
ent. Many of them think good middlng,
which is now quoted at ga cents, will
reach cents in the course of a few days.
In fact many brokers now have ample
supplies at cents for those too Impatient
to wait until the price gets there. Num-
bers of sales are being made a private
terms, and it is stated that the terms in
many cases are above the market quota
TONS 1t is mostly the better grades. it
is stated that are being received at pres
ent.
Another matter OF interest to cotton men
is the per cent. of cotton that will be
moved this year in the round bale 1t
seems however, that the percentage will
be small. The standard IS the favored,
and outnumbers the round bale beyond
comparison. Many believe 1t is only a ques-
ton of time, however, until the round
bale will come into favor and be generally
adopted. The customs officials have re
ceived orders from the department to see
that the standard and cylindrical bale Is
cleared separately; that is the number of
bales and value Of each are stated sepa-
rately in the clearances through the Gus
tom house. The order is now in effect
and Will be enforced from now on

Trouble Among the Catholics.

A telegram from Chicago stating
that Bishop Kozlowski, of the Polish
Catholic church, an Independent Cath
Ollie organization, had offered to receive
the communicated members of st.
Patrick's church of East st. Louis into
his diocese, was shown to a number Of
prominent officers of the latter church.
1t was out of the question, they de-
clared, for them to accept any such
proposition. DR.. John Stack, a MEM
Der of the committee having the affairs
of st. Patrick's church in charge dur
ing the present crisis, said they were
in the fight to stay, and could not af-
ford to consider such an offer. He
said the members considered them
selves as good Catholics, declaring that
the decree of accommodation
amounted to nothing. They were
fighting for a principle, the recogni-
ton of their right to have an Irish
priest for rector, and expected to win.

Double Drowning at Iron Mo untain.

Iron Mountain was thrown into a
fever of excitement early on the morn

Swanson, leading jeweler and prom
inent business man, and Carl Rylandcr,
12-year-old boy, had been accident
ally drowned while fishing in the
Menominee river, three miles from the
city. The report was brought in by
the boys father, who was the only
member of the party saved. Swanson,
Rylander and the latter's son left the
city at o'clock to fish for pickerel.
An old boat was secured and the three
hoated down the river with the current
a distance of about two miles. The
boat leaked and gradually filed with
water. finally compelling the occupants
to get out and swim for shore. While
doing this Swanson and the boy sank
in the middle of the stream and were
carried over swift rapids by the cur
rent.

The fact is, American women usually

Idleness a Large Factor In Crime.

The joint meeting of prison boards
of Michigan was held at Petoskey on
the 18th. Warden Otis Fuller of the
State house of correction read his an
nual report for the year ending June
80, 1899. The report showed a reduc-
tion of prisoners in the past two years
of "a, and of 146 in four years. The
warden says this is probably due to
improved business and the late war,
indicating that idleness is large fac
tor in crime. Of "a paroles from the
Iona prison since Aug 8, 1895, but six
per cent have violated the parole law,

ing due to the good Judgment of the
1onia board and the governor Only
$50, 900 was drawn from the State
treasury in the past year, or 500 for
each inmate as against $212 per year
for the four years ending June 80, 1884,
and S113 per year for the four years
ending June 80, 1898. This favorable
result is probably due to large sales
and small purchases in closing out the
furniture department.

Double Murder and Suicide.

A triple tragedy, three miles east OF
Canton, O., on the sth, resulted in the
death of Edward Eckinger, his wife
and their 3-year-old daughter. Mrs.
Eckinger evidently first shot her hus-
band and daughter with shotgun
and then tried to commit suicide by
gashing the veins in her wrist with a
knife. The latter, apparently, proved
too slow or else too painful, for the
woman put third charge in the gun
and sent 1t through her heart. The
woman was % years old and her hus-
band 25. Domestic troubles was the
cause.
