church, Rev. G.. G.. Weith ofllciat.
ing. Roses, semi tropical plants
and eyergreens were festooned
about the organ and the altar
Mrs. n. II. Mccoy presided at the
organ. BY request the pastor
used the shorter marriage form of
the Presbyterian church. Though
brief it is sufficiently impressive to
imbue the minds of the contracting
parties with a sense of the respon
sibility they are assuming.
The bride is the eldest daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney Suggs.
She has many warm friends in
Ardmore who wish her all the hap
piness to be realized in the marital
state.
The groom holds a lucrative po.
sition with a business firm al
Memphis, Tenn.
They were the recipients of many
tokens of friendship from parties
here and other places. The bridal
party left for Memphis. Tenn,
their future home, last night.

ARKANSAS & cnocrAw GROUND.
Brief Filed by Their Attorneys-List
Of Property Asked.

Yesterday Ledbetter & Bledsoe
received n brief fled by the attor-
neys for the Arkansas & Choctaw
railroad in the matter OF the pro.
test of the property owners in north
Ardmore against amending the
plat so as TO have placed thereon
the right of way of the railroad.
They also received a telegram from
Mr.. Wright, stating that they
should have until the 9TH within
which to file a reply, and suggest
ed that they furnish list of the
property on the lots taken by the
right of way and station grounds.
Nearly all of the property owners
have made a statement of their
improvements, and what they con-
slider the value of their lots.
In their brief, the attorneys for
the railroad, take the broad posi-
ton that the railway company is
not bound to pay for anything ex.
cept the improvements on the lots.
and that they can, appropriate the
lots for railroad purposes without
paying for any interest therein.
They filed a twenty. six page brief,
citing many authorities, which
they contend support their contcn-
tions.
The people in North Ardmore
are considerably wrought up over
the matter, and are preparing to
make the best fight possible before
the department.
AS soon as the reply brief for
the property owners is forwarded
to Mr.. Wright he will forward all
the papers in the contest to the
secretary of the interior. 1t is un-
derstood that the matter will be
submitted to him in oral argument
as well as on briefs.

American cotton this season much stress
has been laid upon a recent statement
said to have emanated from Mr. Ellison
that the worlds requirements would be
less than his earlier estimates and the
figures 10,660.000 bales were mentioned as
being approximately the amount of
American cotton that will be required
during this season.
These figures are, however, the same
as used by him previously as his mini
mum suggestion and if the revival of this
question in this shape be of any influ-
ence on the market it should make for
strength and higher values as there is
no likelihood of an amount within $780,
600 bales of this being added to the
worlds supplies as result of this years
planting, and it must be said also, in
support of his statement, that the worlds
takings of American cotton since the
first of September fully justify the view
that unless prices go very high, con-
sumption will not balk at 10. $50. 900

Cotton Causerie.

Harvie Jordan, the foremost agricul-
tural writer and speaker in Georgia.
writes to the Atlanta Journal: with
less than ten and half million bales of
cotton the world will be short of cotton
for consumption during the next twelve
months, and knowing this to be true,
every farmer who sells the balance Of
his crop for less than 10 cents per pound
will be adding SO much to the spinner's
profit and decreasing in proportion his
own profits. Do not be mislead, stand
firm on the small estimate basis and de-
mand high prices from now on. The
mills have got to buy it, and if they can
not purchase at their price then they will
be forced to pay ours
Our advices," remarked one broker to
the New York Financial Chronicle, "are
all bad about the crop. Some of our
Georgia letters are very bad; In fact,
they are poor from all over the South.
some Texas people tell us that the crop
In that state will not come within 1,000,-

pected. We hear that there was little

eral, We get them from many sections OF

Said Mr.. Tom Evans, manager of the
cotton department of e. ii. Norton &
Co.. THE persistence with which Henry
w. Neill clings to his remarkable esti-
mate, III .250,0O0 bales) is a striking ex-
ample of that great authority's consis-
tency, that is, of sticking to his esti-
mates regardless of what the figures at
hand show He stuck to 9,750,0 bales
last year through thick and thin. The
crop was 10, 100000 bales. Year before
last he stuck to II 600, 900, the crop was

Mildred" said Sir George, one night
about a fortnight later on, "if you
really mean hunting tomorrow, you
will have to be up betimes, as we
shall have to start more than usually
early on account of the distance we
have to CO."
II shall be ready" answered Mildred.
Accordingly, the next morning, true
to her word, she was downstairs
equipped, even to the dainty little whip
she carried in her hand, before any one
but Denzil had put in an appearance.
Lydon arriving shortly afterward in
time for breakfast, they hastily dis
patched that meal, and started direct
ly after for the meet, which was at
some considerable distance-Miss Ire
vanion and the acknowledged lover in
front, Sir George with the discarded

On their way they fell in with
Frances Sy1verton, attended only by a
groom-Charlie having gone to rejoin
his regiment some days before-who
called out gayly that she had come
this route on the mere chance of meet
ing them, and was therefore, for once
in her life, unfeignedly glad to see
them.
'And what has happened to you, o
knight of the rueful countenance?"
she asked, merrily, Of Denzil, refining

head; "the signs of woe upon your

"You are wrong" said he-"entirely
wrong. If I felt the shadow of such a

of some luckier day."

How London Could Be Defended.

If the Dutch ever sail up the Thames
again, or Norman force land, London
will not be unprepared. In the archives
Of Pail Mall repose musty schemes for
the defense of the metropolis which it
was thought would be undisturbed IN
til the war department commenced to
move into it's new palace. But there
are busy men about and as a result new
schemes will be forthcoming for the
defense of London. Something like 80
batteries of artillery will be allotted to
the defense, including guns of heavy
caliber, AZ and inches, which will be
mounted in commanding positions,
covering a wide, sweeping arc. The
mobile force for defense will include
nearly 100 15-pounder field guns, and
an army corps of three divisions Of
regular infantry and 100 volunteers

Poll Taxes In A. ID 12e.

The Rev. DR.. William C. Winslow.
vice-president of the Egypt exploration
fund, says that in addition to the
papyri recently presented by the So
ciety to several universities there is
a valuable lot of forty-three papyri
which have been received for distribu-
ton, largely treating of business and
civil matters in the first centuries Of
our era. Among the seven papyri for
Columbia university is tax collectors
return showing items and how the col
lectors made returns in A. D. 1856
There were poll taxes in A. D. 122.
The rise of the Nile was the greatest
annual event, and upon it taxes were
calculated. Hence one of the six
papyri sent to Johns Hopkins, treat
ing of the unwatered land titled by
Ptollarous, A. D. 1853, is peculiarly. in

at Euhemeria did not get the water.
Her plea, in word, is: ''No crops.
