Tbe Rartered Bridegroom.

There are held here many ''confiden-
tial weddings" as they are called
when the ceremony is kept unusually
t1dential to please the relatives of the
parties. The coercion of prospective
brides under such circumstances is a
proceeding well authenticated in fact
and fiction. A kidnapped bridegroom,
however, Is unusual, though he hap
pened at ST. Georges not long ago.
He was a gentleman of position, and
he wished to marry a lady who had
nursed him through an illness. There
was no cause or just impediment save
social rank The gentleman was de-
termined, and the lady seconded his
plans admirably. But the day and the
details leaked out, and before the time
fixed the bridegroom's male relatives
deployed strategically through Mad
dox street and surrounded the church.
He drove up in a hanson cab. With
his eyes fixed on the expectant bride,
he prepared to alight. An athletic un-
Gle and a brother sprang forward,
thrust him back, with Glad to meet
you, old fellow" manner that deceived
the cabman, who obeyed the quick di-
rection he heard and drove the three
away. The lady, with tears in her
eyes, went into the vestry. There
will be no wedding" she said.
They've run away with him." And
that was the last ST. Georges heard of
them.-Londop bIai

$225,ooo FEE FOR JOE BAILEY.
Kirby Explains Why HIS Employed the
Senator


Houston, Tex, Sept. 22-John H.
Kirby, president of the Kirby Lum-
Der company, made the following
statement relative to the employment
OF Senator Bailey in connection with
the sale of some of Mr. Kirby's inter
ests in the Kirby Lumber company, for
which, it was stated, Mr. Bailey re-
ceived fee of $225,OO0 for disposing
of 100000 on property, and in reply
to published criticism, said:
The statement that I employed Mr..
Bailey because of his influence as a
United States senator, is false. l en-
ployed him to reduce my possession of
the Kirby Lumber company treasury
assets that certain Wall street inter
ests were fraudulently seeking to take
from me. l employed Mr.. Bailey be-
cause OF his eminent ability as a law
yer, and his knowledge of Texas stat
utes and court practice, which enabled
him to cope with the situation better
than New York lawyer could have
done.
THE fee paid him was smaller than
would have been charged by a New
York lawyer able to successfully rep
resent me-"
President Ripley, of the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe, wired here to-
day from Chicago:
"The statement that Senator Bal
ley ever had any character of nego-
tiation with us is untrue All of our
transactions with Mr.. Kirby, of the
lumber company, were conducted by
me, and with Mr.. Kirby in person. l
never saw Mr.. Bailey in my life, AMI
never knew that he was connected
with Mr.. Kirby or the Kirby Lumber
company as an attorney or other

BEGGED TO SETTLE
CASE WITH NEGRO
Sensational Scene in Atlanta
- Police Court. :.
SITUATION WAS MOST INTENSE

Hundreds of White Men Stood About
Father and Girl While the Police
Formed a Gordon About Prisoner.
Ran With Negro After Trial.
Atlanta, Sept. 22.-"T am the girls
father and there are few men who can
appreciate my feelings who have not
experienced what l have. | know
the negro is now in the hands of the
law out Of my reach. If it possibly
can be done, beg that be allowed to
settle this case with the negro here
and now"
Thomas L. Bryan, the father of Miss
Orrie Bryan, of 232 Courtland street,
was speaking to Recorder Broyles
while Luther Farzier, the negro who
attempted to assault Miss Bryan, was
on trial. He was calm as he spoke,
but there was a tone in his voice
and look in his eye that made the
room understand that the speaker
was terribly in earnest.
You know such thing cannot be
DONE" the recorder quickly informed
! him.
Il have no weapon, neither pistol
nor knife" continued Mr.. Bryan 81
have only these hands and fingers that
God gave me, but if you will let me
use them l can settle this case in a
few minutes"
AS he spoke the incensed father ad-
vanced toward the trembling negro.
Immediately there arose 300 or 400
white men who had packed the court
room to witness the trial. Many of
them stepped inside the railing. At
the same time 40 or so policemen
sprang to their feet AS the white
men gatheEed behind Mr. Bryan and
the policemen circled around the ne
gro prisoner, Recorder Broyles saw
that the situation was one that re-
quired to be dealt with quickly and
with tact. He exclaimed:
Lets hear the evidence first. Let's
hear what the negro will have to say"
This remark had the effect of check
ing anw demonstration that might
have been imminent and the danger
of an open outbreak in the court room
was, for the time, over.
] Not in many years has there been
such a sensational investigation be-
fore the recorder of Atlanta's police
court
When the recorder had announced
his decision and the negro was Or
dered sent to Jail, there came another
scene, which, but for the quick action
of the police, might have resulted in a
lynching in the very front of the police
barracks and on a public street which
was thronged with negroes.
When asked what he had to say, the
negro prisoner replied
Judge, I don't remember a thing
that happened last night. If the white
folks say I was in that house reck-
on 1t must be So I got drunk with
another negro and the last thing 1
remember was when I was in a bar
room on Decatur street. I don't re-
member anything about taking off a
part Of my clothes"
All the while the negro spoke a
squad Of police formed a Gordon
around the negro.
Il will hold this negro without bond
on the double charge Of assault with
attempt to rape and burglary" an
nounced the recorder, "and I order
him sent to jail"
Subsequently the recorder fixed the
bonds at $4,000, stating that he knew
such a bond could not possibly be
given by the negro, and the law made
1t imperative that some sort of a
bond be named
