Charles Broadaway Rouss, the mul ti-millionaire merchant of this city, has a scn-in law, and although he had small voice in the selection of the young gentleman who occupies this in timate relationship, ho has taken thc matter with characteristic philosophy. The uew5, which was first learned by Mr. Rouss on Sunday afternoon last, rcas made public by the following an nouncement which appeared yester day: Lee-Rouss.-Ou October 18, by the Rev. W. B. Brush, of New York, Virginia Duane, daughter of C. B. Rouss, to David Lee, son of R. Charles Lee, of Hartford County, Md. Miss Virginia Duane Rouss, who is known to her father a?d friends as "Jennie," is the only daughter of the eccentric merchant, who takes pride in saying that twenty years ago "lie was sleeping in Central Park in this city for want of money to secure a lodging. She is twenty-four years of age, a blonde and decidedly pretty. With her parents she lives at the lux urious home No. 632 Fifth avenue, and her natty little victoria is a famil iar ono in the afternoon carriage pa rade in the park drives. Four years ago Mr. Rouss received a letter from his cousin, Ralph C. Lee, of Jerusalem, Hartford County, Md., asking that his son David be given a position in Mr- Rouss' great store. The latter promptly complied, and young David, who was at that time but nineteen, came to this city and entered Mr. Rouss' employ. As a relative he was taken by his employ er to his own home, where he has since made his home. At the store Lee proved active and capable, and was speedily advanced to the position of cashier. At home he proved au agreeable a3 well as an unusually bright young man, and blind though Mr. Rouss is, both he and his. wife could see that their daughter was much interested in him. The iuterest which soon developed in to something stronger, was mutual, but so carefully did the young lady's parents conceal their sentiments in ihe matter that the young people fear ed to ask thc much desired consent. Mr. Rouss says now that he would have willingly accorded it, but the young people were taking no chances. Every day David was at thc store un til evening, and nearly everyday the pretty little victoria and its pretty little owner called to take him home to dinner. Last Sunday morniug thc time long watched for camc^. Mr. Rouss, who is at his store punctually at 7 a', m. during the week, rests uutil afternoon on Sundays. Mrs. Roifss is similarly less active on thc Sabbath, so while they were both enjoying their repose the young people slipped out together They proceeded directly to the home of tho Rev. Wilbur B. Brush, at No. 463 West Forty-fourth street. Here in the presence of thc necessary wit nesses the ceremony was quietly per formed. The newly married couple sent a telegram to Mr. Rouss and then went to Brooklyn, where tho bride's only brother, Peter Winchester Rouss, lives. Monday moruiug youug Lee report ed for work as usual, and announced to Mr. Rouss that he had1 married his daughter. Five minutes later he was at his desk, and Mr. Rouss was dicta ting to one of his numerous pretty typewriters as calmly as if nothing of tho least importance had occurred. Speaking of it yesterday to a reporter for thc Morning Advertiser Mr. Rouss said : "Thc announcemeut affected me about as much as if a man had told me he had sold a thousand bales of cotton. I can't even say I was sur prised. I have been expecting some thing of the sort for some time, and am perfectly satisfied. The young people have come to my homo at No. 632 Fifth avenue, which is amply large enough for all of us, and they can make it their home so loDg as they wish. "I don't sec why they stepped out iu this unceremonious fashion, as it was wholly unnecessary, but if they wanted to its all right. I don't know either why they went to ajminister. If they had asked me I should have ad vised them to have the thing done at the City Hall. Mayor Strong is an old friend of mine, and would have been delighted marry to them. "Dave is a nico young fellow. He comes of the Maryland family rof Lees, and I like him. They went over to Pete's in Brooklyn for a couple of days before they came home, and Pete is going to give them a big reception on October 30. If you want a good dinner free of charge and some hard cider to drink come over,'" he added in his characteristic fashion. "You'll find Dave over there at the cashier's desk if you want to know anything more about it," ho conclud ed; "I've told you all I know, audit's all right." _ While this conversation was going on at least a score of pretty typewrit ers were craning their necks over thei?* machines and giggling, while sly peeps from every clerk showed that ledger entries were being sadly neglected. The object at which the greater part of this attention was directed was a slim, good looking young fellow, with a slight mustache, ^ho stood behind the cashier's desk. He blushed furi ously when the reporter asked him if he was the hero of the story, but ad mitted that ho was married, and was glad of it and everything was all right. "But if there was no objection why did you do it socrctly?" asked the re porter. "Well-cr-wc were afraid, you know." "But Mr. Rouss says that he was PORTRAITS. J. G.

Further than this, Mr. Lee declined to say anything, and neither his wife nor Mrs. Rouss could he seen hy the reporter when he called at the family residence in 5th avenue later. It is certain, however, that ha mony pre vails, and the function of October 30 will be tho public expression cf that harmony. Charles Broadaway Kouss, who should, according to tradition, bc the irate parent, but who isn't, is one of the best knowu and most eccentric merchants of this city. From nothing at all he ?jas amassed a fortune esti mated at many millions, and has a huge establishment in Broadway, whose conduct, while most successful, is on original lines, laid down by its proprietor. A few years ago he was stricken vrith an incurable disease of thc eyes, and he is almost totally blind. One of his most famous acts came as a result of this affliction, when he advertised to pay 81,000,000 to any one who should restore his sight. Many attempts have been made hut all have proved fruitless. Mr. Ro'iss came herc after thc war from Winchester, Va., having served four year-; while yet a youth as a pri vate in thc hard-riding and hard fighting cavalry of the Confederate Geo. Mosby. A Hot Retort, Tho widow Teeter's husband bad been dead only a few weeks when there were surface indications that she was about to marry again. The Tate Mr. Teeter bad not been ex actly k. mod?l husband, and it was th" general opinion that his death was a stroke of good fortune for Mrs. Teeter, but still the relatives of tho deceased thought that his memory required a widowhood of at least a year. When the indications of the approaching marriage became apparent, some of ber late hus band's friends waited on Mrs. Teeter. One of them said : "We hear that you are about to marry again, Lucy Ann." "Well, I don't know that it is any of your business," replied Lucy Ann, "but if it will give yon any satisfaction to know tho facts, J don't mind telling you that I shall be a married woman again in about two weeks." "But Tom has been dead less than three months." protested another. "Wei', I suppose be's as dead as heevar will be, isn't he?" "But " fiaid a third, "you ought in com mon deceucv to wait until ho is cold." "Wait until Tom Teeter is cold !" re peated the widow, with fire in her eye. "If your theological belief ia orthodox, you must know that Tom Teeter hasn't a ghoot of a show of ever getting cold.' Then the objecting relativos filed out and Mrs. Teeter resumed the .vork of preparing her trousseau -Truth. - One way : "I say, Sparkins ! did you see in thc paper to-day that the captain of thc schooner Emma is to receive a medal for his heroic conduct in saving five lives ?"

"Why, I studied for a physician, and then refused to practice." - One of tho "notices" in the porch of the church at Hawarden, England, near Mr. Gladstone's castle, reads thus: "On your way to tho Lord's house be tlioughtful, be'silent, or say but little.

Never stay outside; go in at ouce, time spent inside should be precious." - "Mamma, what is hereditary ?" asked Bobby, shedding a few tears and laboriously tripping over thc syllables of the word. "Why, it is-it is some thing you get from your father or mc," replied the mother. Silence of two minutes, and more tears.

Saved his Client but Narrowly Escaped Losing his own Life. Chicago News. Two old-time Chicago lawyers, says thc Xeivs, were talking thc other day about some noted cases which had been tried in Cook county and of the attorneys who had shone at the Chicago bar. The name and fame of ''Billy" O'Brien, once one of the most eminent criminal lawyers that ever stood beforo a jury in this State, came up and thcu followed a flood of stories shout him. "O'Brien," said one of thc lawyers, "defended in the Cook county criminal courts, 260 people, and during all hie varied and excited career never lost a case. He was one of thc quickest men to see and take advantage of a point in favor of his client and when pressed to thc wall would somehow squirm out and make what seemed certain convic tion a point for triumphant acquittal. "O'Brien once had a client who was on trial for murder and all the evidence had apparently gone to show conclu- ; sively that malice and the coolest of deliberation had prompted the prisoner to take the life of thc victim. He had administered poison. The cle ments of the deadly drug had been taken from the deceased's stomach, on being analyzed were found to be iden tical with the remainder of the poison in the bottle, which was offered in evidence and which stood before tho ! eyes of the jury. The horrid sku1^ and crossbones glared from the sic the bottle which was turned tbs impossible that ho could have any hope of acquittal or even of saving his client's life. He paid more attention to thc medical witnesses than he did to thc others and labored to break down their testimony. "After a pretty good argument from tho fact3 ?he had to work upon he drew his address toward a close and picking up the bottle which contained the re mainder of the drug, held it so the twelve men could sec it. " 'Now. gentlemen,' said the attor ney, as he paused and significantly looked at the bottle, 'just to show you that this ia not the deadly poison which thc witnesses for the State have said it is, I will drink it and prove that it is harmless.' "There wasn't a person in the room whose hair did not stand on end and the people sat as motionless as if death had grasped them. O'Brien, confident and composed, raised the bottlo to his lips, drained it to the bottom, set it on a table and, as coolly as if he had been sipping wino, turned to the mon in Whose hands the life of the prisoner rested and said : " 'Geni.lcmen of the jury, I thank you very kindly for the attention which you have given to my argument.' "Then, making a graceful bow, he walked quietly from the rdem. This much tho jury and audience saw, but the physician iu waiting knew tho rest. By the i se of antidotes, emetics aud skilful use of a stomach pump, he had in a few minutes removed all the poisou from O'Brien's stomach and quickly thc lawyer came back into the room, coolly sat down and listened to the closing and disjointed remarks of the prosecuting attorney. "The jury retired. It had believed that thc bottle contained poison, but MOT A SICK DAY RESULT OF USING E'S?? -.r's Cathartic Pills for over thirty ye?u havu kept mu in good health, never haring had a bick day in alt that time.
