The Marietta Daily Leader
WEDNESDAY, MARCH IA, 1900.
Dufiy-Boyd.

Parkersburg, w. Va, March a.
Capt. VIM Duffey, master of the
steamer that bears his name, took a
trip on the matrimonial sea yesterday.
1t Is his first voyage on that sometimes
calm and oftimes tempestous body of
water. For thirty-five years the Cap
tain has sailed the oceans and the riv-
ers, but on his return from each voy-
age he found that there was some
thing lacking in his reception, that
there was an. aching void, as 1t were.
He was puzzled to know what 1t was.
Another tar, much older mariner,
who had travelled for many years on
that Capt. Duffey secure helpmate
and the voyage would be much nicer.
The Captain at first did not take kind
ly to the suggestion, but he gave 1t
thought. The more he thought about
1t, the better he Thought of it and to
make long story short he appeared
at the county clerks office yesterday,
v ith pretty Miss Vina Boyd, of Hook
import, o., and they were made man
and wife by Rev. r. l.. woodward
right then and there. They were ac-
companied by friend, Miss Minnie
Cole. And that is why the people be-
tween Marietta and st. Marys thought
a Fourth of July picnic party was
aboard the Duffey when she passed by
today all bedecked in flags and bunt-
ing and small cannon booming sa-
lutes from the hurricane deck.

The Uses Of a Queen.

The recent activity of the aged
Queen Of England in appearing In pub
lie for the purpose Of rousing the pat
riotlsm of her subjects, her proposed
visit to ireland with the same object
in view, and the enthusiasm with
which she Is received in public indi-
Gates that in whatever light we may
look upon a hereditary monarch, Eng
land is not as yet nearly prepared to
part with such ruler. In the eyes Of
the British people the Queen stands
for the state,f for the majesty and great
ness of England, the embodiment OF
all the glories that have been won un-
der her rule and that of her ancestors
for generations and centuries. Such a
figure as hers, the center of so much
power, the object of so much homage,
bearing in her veins the blood Of so
many CT England's kings, appeals to
the Imagination of her subjects and
rouses their patriotism and pride.
1t has been said by some of the
greatest students of government that
people are goverened largely through
their Imagination. This being the
case 1t was shrewd and we'll planned
political move which called forth the
aged Queen from her partial retire
ment, to further kindle the loyalty OF
her people and to give notice to all
whom it might concern that they still
stood enthusiastically by her and by
the government which she represents

sleeplessness and all the woes of dyspep-
sia. 1t is the disordered stomach that
makes thin, impoverished blood, where
microbes of consumption flourish and null
tiply. 1t is the weak and disordered stofn-
ach which brings about conditions that
cause hacking cough, sore throat, bron-
chitis, weak and bleeding lungs.
To make the foundation of your physical
structure solid; so that the rest of the or
gans may successfully resist the attacks of
disease, nothing equals Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery This medicine is a
tonic an appetizer, a blood purifier, a
nerve builder, a flesh maker, foe to weak
ness and blessing to worn out and rum
down humanity. 1t is a non-alcoholic
specific for every disease that comes in ad-
vance of consumption. II is a distinct
remedy and stands alone. Nothing is like
1t, and there is no substitute for it. 1t has
a record of thirty years of cures.
Mrs Lula 1Iedgecoke, of Dozier, Ceilings
worth Co. Texas, writes; "1 was troubled for
seven eight years with indigestion and liver
complaint, and received more benefit from the
use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
and Pleasant Pellets than any medicine

HELD WITHOUT AUTHORITY.
Claim That Men Are Worked as Conyicts
Without Trial.

A Quitman special to the Savannah
News says Col. James w. Edmondson
is in Atlanta to place before the prison
commission some facts relative to the
treatment of convicts at McRee's camp
in Lowdnes county. A few days ago
Edmondson was employed to take such
legal steps as were necessary to secure
the release of several persons who
were detained and worked at the camps
without authority. Since this time
Mr.. Edmondson has come into posses
sion of facts relating to the conduct OF
the camp and the treatment received
by the inmates, and he has decided TO
Law these before the prison commission.
He has affidavits from several parties
to the effect that they had been de-
tanned and worked at the camps with
out ever being tried or sentenced in
the court. The Developments in the
affair have created quite a sensation
in this section and have been the all
absorbing topic discussed for the past
few DAYS.

IN MEMORY OF THE DEAD.

CHAPMAN.-On September 22nd, at
six o'clock, a. m, the sweet spirit Of
our darling nephew, little Edward A.
Chapman, infant son of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. P. Chapman, winged its flight to
the home on high to await the coming
of his loved ones. Little Edward was
a bright and promising child. He was
born October 27th 1899, and lived to
be eleven months old. He was the
light and Joy of his fond parents
hearts-bright as a sunbeam and as
pure as the dew. II take the little
lambs, says Christ. land fold them TO
my breast: protection they shall nave
in Me, and be forever blest."
Our little darling was sick only one
short week wheu the death angel
called him to 90 home to his baby
brother, who was taken a few years
ago So weep not, dear parents, for
your precious little darling; you did all
in your power for his comfort and
pleasure during the short time he was
with you, and he has only gone home
to live with Jesus, where his precious
little body will feel no more suffering
or pain. He is not lost but has gone
before, and is watching and waiting Tor
mother and father to join him in HeaV-
en-.
Our little darling was sorrowfu!ly
and tenderly la d to rest by his oaoy
brother in the new cemetery in Bron-
wood, the last sad rites being very I'M
pressively performed by Rev I; H.
McMichael. May Gods greatest bless
inCs be upon the grief stricken parents
in their sore bereavement. God IS TOO
wise to err, and too good to be unklnd'
He doeth all things well.
Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repoSe,
Unbroken by the last of foes.
Asleep in Jesus. Oh. how sweet
To be for such Slumber meet.
With holy confidence to sing
That death has lost its cruel sting
Asleep in Jesus, peaceful rest;
Whose waking is supremely best
No fear no woe shall dmthat hoaf
That manifests the Savlour'S power
