WELLS S-JACKSON.

Miss Bessie Wells, of Tibbs, Ten nessee, and MT. John William Jack son, of this city, were married on Sat urday evening, August 3, 1901, at o'clock, the ceremony being per formed at the residence of the brides grand father, Robert Wells, of Tibbs.
 Rev. Edgar T. Thorn, of Woodville, Tenn, officiated at the wedding, which was attended by large num- Der of friends and relatives.
 The bride and groom arrived in this city Monday evening over the Choc- taw. They will make this their home and have gone to housekeeping in the cottage recently prepared for this event by the groom in Chastain s Ad- dition.
 Miss Wells visited in Newport last summer and it was upon this trip that she met Mir. Jackson and the little love story startedwhich has reached it's climax in this plighting of theirtroth. The young lady is a decided blonde, with the clearest of blue eyes, fair skin and withal very fair bride.
 The groom is painter by trade and we'll known here, where his friends are many, all of whom will join with the INDEPENDENT in extending con- gratulations and good wishes.

ter than he himself lived. Honesty he respected, but failure upon this score he detested.
 He went beyond fairness in his good intentions. He was charitable and indulgent so long as the object of his kindness were deserving or honest. Never ostentatious, for he possessed the true spirit of generosity. His good deeds were not done for the eclat of others, but in response to the good impulses of a kind heart.
 There was sunshine in his life, no one enjoyed an anecdote more. He cherished his friendships and offered evidences each day of the love he bore for his family.
 To those beloved, who no longer have but the sweet memory of a kind parent and loving husband, who has been taken from them, the sympathy of many friends is extended.

found at the far corner of the north corridor hole dug in the side wall by the removal of two layers of brick, leaving but one separating the in mates from open air and liberty.
 Only two prisoners occupied the jail, "California Frank" the crazy man, and Joe Hinkle, under arrest for horse stealing. They were allowed the use of the corridor and both had probably taken a hand in the attempt to break iail.
 When discovered, though covered with dirt that had evidently fallen on his clothes while removing the bricks, HinIle denied all connection with the plan to escape, but later confessed that he helped in the work.
 One further layer of bricks removed would have left an aperture into the little alley between the jail and the livery stable large enough for a man to have drawn his body through, and had the work of the prisoners been faster or the night longer, their es- cape would undoubtedly have been accomplished.
 Their chance is gone, however, as both prisoners have been locked se- curely in cells.

$14OO-PRICE OF PEARL.

J. M. O'Hara of the firm of O'Hara & Co.,, Memphis pearl buyers, was in Newport Saturday, gathering in some of the best finds of the week in pearls
 To Howard and Lewis, two pearl hunters from the Black river, MT. O'Hara paid $14oO for an almost per- fectly round 65 grain pearl, writing out to each of the owners a check for S7OO.
 This is reliable piece of news and though the figures run high, the sale was bona fide transaction. The pearl buyer, who does not make New port in his rounds, skips one of the best market centers' on White or Black rivers. The seller too would do we'll to secure the figures of our buyers before disposing of his gems.

HORSE THIEF CAUGHT.

Joe Hinlzle was arrested Saturday at SWifton, charged with stealing the horse of Ashley Weatherford at Grand Glaise on the night of June 1st. The owner circulated widely description of the stolen animal, offering a reward for the capture of the thief.
 About ten days ago, he found that the horse in question had been sold to James Hardy, liveryman of Batesville. Upon proof of Identification, the horse again reverted to him, Hardy losing the purchase price, as the animal re- presented stolen property. No trace could be found of the man Joe Hinlle, who sold him the horse, but clue was given them upon which they might work as Hinkle wrote back to a party near Grand Glaise asking pay ment of a debt, the remittance to be sent him at SWifton. Sheriff R. w. Randy was given this information with the result that Hinlzle now rests behind the bars of the county jail
