MARRIED SAME MAN TWICE.
Children See Father First Time in
Thirteen Years.

If statements are true, and there
is no reason to doubt them, Mr.. Rob-
ert L. Henley and his wife, Of Macon,
will be married in few days for the
second time-to each other. The
Henley family lived in TEXAS thirteen
years ago. The father Of the fam
lily left the mother and three chill
dren and went further in search Of
work, the gamily came bnik to
Georgia, and the father was to come
back to see them the following
Christmas season.
\ He failed to come. Also no word
ever came to the family In Georgia
from their father-till the Galveston
food when it was reported to them
that he had been among The nnmb'r
who lost their lives in that disaster.
Just previous to that time, however,
Mrs. Henley got a divorce from her
husband on the grounds Of dcser-
ton.
Thursday night Mr.. Henley appear
ed sound and well and wrote from
the hotel a note to his former wife
asking that he be allowed to call
upon her and see the "children.
The children are now grown-two
ana full grown. pretty young ladies
and the son is travelling man for a
local wholesale house.
The daughters went to their home
on Pulaski street Thursday evening
to see a middle-aged stranger sitting
on the veranda. For the first time
since they were tots OF six and eight
years, they spoke to their father and
felt his hands upon their heads. Mr..
and Mrs. Henly, it is stated on good
authority will remarry. The husband
has been living at Paris, Texas, and
has had fine success in business.

amidst a few hastily gathered arti-
cles from their ruined homes, left
of their all in one brief and terrible
night.
"The high wind which had been
from the northwest rendered useless
all efforts to stay the progress OF a
raging confagration. Only hand en-
gines we're to be had, and the streams
of water fell short Of the higher
buildings, while many fragments OF
roofs and walls were scattered before
the path of an angry storm.
During the night I sought the res
idence Of these two ladies whose
signals of loyalty had attracted at
tention. BY making long circuit OF
the burning buildings I reached the
place, finding the roof in flames and
no one In sight. Entering the finely
furnished rooms I ran to- the piano.
many fine paintings on the walls
luyuriant furniture, caprtes, etc, all
about to be consumed. The only
evidence of deliberate purpose on the
part of some irresponsible miscreant
which was discovered was a bonfire
on the rear porch of the doomed res
idence. It could have been extin-
guished, but as the roof had caught
fire from the opposite side OF tne
street and no help was available, the
home and all it's valuable contents
were left to their fate.
Chaplain Gage has ratraced, as far
nc uossible, the line of Sherman

into and through Columbia. But the
new city of nearly $4,000 population

at the time Of its great disaster, pre-
sents no residence Of its former ap'
nearance. 1t was then exceedingly
beautiful, and the memory of its de-
struction has been indelibly made on
the chaplain's mind for more than 4h
wears. He makes no attempt 20 soften
the sorrow and bitterness which that
unfortunate and cruel disaster
brought to so many happy homes
"No nan could have felt deeper

Jones Was Unsuccessful in Cotton
and Wheat Deal.

The Spartanburg Herald says W.
T. Jones, the wealthy Union county
planter, who will be taken to the
State penitentiary at Columbia next
week to serve life term for poison
ing his wife, bears no malice towards
anybody, and has decided to submit
to the judgment of the courts grace
fully, although he declares he is In
nocent of his wife's murder.
It was learned recently that Jones
had lost an amount estimated at
about 100000 through speculation
in cotton and wheat. He has ap-
pointed the Nicholson Trust company
of Union, trustee of his estate, and
instructed the company to pay his
debts out of the income of his plan
tations.
Jones owns about 5000 acres of
land, 1000 acres being contained In
a single Plantation. The annual in
come from his property varies from
$4,000 to Sl0,UuO, IL Is salu.
According to SpartanburS friends
Jones turned to speculation in an ef-
fort not only to recover the attor-
neys' fees and other expenses of his
trial and appeals to the supreme
court, but also to divert his mind
from his trouble. At first. it IS said,
he was successful, but later the tide
turned and he sustained heavy losses.
Jones is now forty-one years old
He is said to be a tall, handsome
man and is we'll educated. He at
tended the University of South Caro-
lima and Davidson college, N. c., but
