REsIsTs OFFICER.
Young Man Barrcades Himself in a
 House and Shoots.

Jasper, November 27.-(Special)-Ben Casey, young white man. ie in the Walker county jail on a serious charge. He was bl ought into town this morning by Sheriff Jack Moore and a number of deputies and was lodged in the county county jail
 Casey will doubtless be confronted by the charge of resisting officers and at tempt to murder. According to the re- ports here he had mortgaged his yoke of oxen to a mercantile f1fm Of thls clty' and the time for settlement having come it is said that Casey claimed his cattle had died. It is claimed that the mer- chants who had furnished him supplies made an investigation and found that he had been getting their goods under false pfetenses. It appears that Deputies Bates. Wilson and Johns went to the young mans home about nine miles north of Jasper on Saturday and told him or the charges against him. Casey told the officers that he knew about it, and that he would tix the matter up at the proper time Casey was armed at the time or the conversation with the officers, and told them [, at the first man who entered the house would not fare well. When the officers started to get the man he began liIlnSs anu ndNlis iiie hipp oii them, they were dispersed. None of the shots took effect.
 The deputies surrounded the house and waited thinking their man would try to escape and that they would then get . him, but he remained inside. Deputy Johns cautiously made his way up be- hind the rear of the kitchen and looked in the window He suddenly lowered his head from the window just in time to save himself from the contents of a donble-barrel shotgun which Casey had discharged at him.
 A consultation was held and it was decided to send to Jasper for other of- ffcers and arms. Accordingly a, messen- ger was dispatched and Sheriff Jack Moore, Deputy J. o. Long and several others. heavily armed, hastened to the scene of the trouble. After looking over the situation Sheriff Moore decided that it would be best to wait until morning before an attempt should be made to get the man. The officers and men surround cd the house and close watch was kept up until day light. When daylight ap- preached the man barricaded in the house perceived the folly of further resistance and gave himself up to the sheriff.

MARRIED IN MID AIR.
Kansas Girl and Wyoming Cowboy
Wed Seated on Ponies.


St. Louis, July 1S-Mounted on white
spotted COW ponies in one of the cars of
the Ferris wheel, with the car at the
topmost point of the wheel, Ida Coff-
man of Clyde, Kan, and William Cra-
ven of Cheyenne, Wyo., were married
Saturday afternoon shortly before 3
o'clock 1t was one of the most unique
weddings of the many which eccentric
folks have had since the opening of the
exposition period.
Craven is a cowboy attached to one
of the Wild West shows on The Pike.
1t was he who conceived the idea, after
reading of the tame way in which other
young couples had been married in the
bridal car" of the observation wheel
w. H. Peters, an uncle of the bride,
who halls from Salina, Kan, performed
the ceremony. The young couple rode
over from The Pike in company with
Col. Cummins, one of the concession
aires there. The bride wore black
divided skirt and a white silk shirt
waist. She wore a soft, white, broad
brimmed hat, and about it was wrap
ped a long ribbon of white. The groom
wore typical cowboy clothes and dec

novelty of their situation. The only
time they faltered was when they were
urged up the inclined plane that led in
to the car. Then the pony the bride
rode reared a little and gave an indica-
ton of 'bucking' just as it was spur
ed inside the car. No precautions were
taken to control the ponies after they
entered the car. None We're needed
With the young people seated on their
backs looking over the Worlds fair
grounds to it's most remote part, the
ponies stood motionless until the car
was at the topmost height of the
wheel, 270 feet above the grounds. Then
the car was stopped and the man of
God said the words.
When the young people reached the
ground again and rode from the car
down the inclined plane they were
greeted by a brass band belonging to
the management of the wheel, and an
appropriate wedding march was played.
The groom relieved his pent-up feelings
in true cowboy style by whirling his
lariat about his head, shouting at the
top of his lungs and dropping the folds
of the long rope about the waist of the
bride and his own shoulders in what
he called a lovers loop
