Ie won't be either, on this question. His
cord is so bad on that negro business
e wonder is he was foolish enough to
fblicly deny "Watson's charge.
Senator Mayfield lays down the senarial
toga without a rent or stain. His
cord is that of an honest, conscientious

to boast of the valuable service he

^applied an anecdote of an Irishman at
||?;Jfiagara Falls.
"The gentleman from Illinois, Mr.

ra$eoantry is prosperous, and he read a lot of
fl^ljiewspaper articles to prove it. Others

"Yes," replied the guide. "I have shown

A Beautiful Countryside Church Marriage.
Ulmer, April 16.?Down in the woodlands
on the great Saltkehatchie about
one mile from this place there has stood
from time immemorial a large Baptist
church. The one standing here in 1S65
was ruthlessly dismantled by Sherman's
"bummers," the boards were hauled to
the swamp and used to span the thirtyodd
little creeks intersecting the causeway.
Shortly after the war this quaint
structure was replaced by a handsome
and more commodious one.
On last Thursday afternoon this sacred
spot was the scene of a large nuptial
throng. Two or three weeks ago scores
of invitations were sent out to the friends
and kinsmen of the bride and groom-elect,
announcing the coming marriage of Miss
Rosa, the eldest daughter of Mr. and
. Mrs. H. W. Deer, to Claude, eldest son
of Mr. Jas. McMillan, the groom being at
. present book-keeper for a large firm in
New Decatur, Ala., where he and his
charming and popular young bride will
be "at home" after the 15th of May.
On the afternoon of the appointed day
well-filled buggies, phaetons and carriages
I wended their wav to the church, and by
4 o'clock it was densely packed with men,
ladies and children, while quite a number
stood on the porch and in the yard. Near
5.30 the bridal party arrived, and after a
few instructions by the chaperone, Mrs.
White, formerly of Charleston, S. C., now
of Cameron, S. C., two pretty little girls
with baskets of flowers preceeded the
bride-to-be leaning on the arm of her
sister, Ada, maid of honor, and the groom
with his brother, Alonzo, as best man,
followed by the bridesmaids and bridegrooms
down the two aisles, all moving
at the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding
march, rendered by an estimable lady,
Mrs. O. D. A. Wilson, of this place.
In front of the chancel stood a minature
slatted double-gate, fastened with a
wreath of flowers, where the party halted
and was met by the pastor, Rev. S. R.
Bass, officiating in the ceremonies, who,
after the usual interrogations and joining
of hands, the gate was opened Dy the
little flower girls, he in his concise words
and courtly manner pronounced the
twain man and wife. A large horseshoe
bedecked with evergreens and flowers,
surmounted by a lighted lamp, hung
above the betrothed couple. After a
brief prayer, Mazeppa's march entire was
played by the fair organist, when osculations
and felicitations were extended to
the bride and groom who soon repaired to
the carriage awaiting at the steps and
after being seated a shower of red and
white roses was scattered Dy loving nanas,
indicating a flowery journey as they
wandered down the stream of life. The
realization of their day-dreams being now
attained the throbbing hearts of the happy
pair were infused with exultant hopes of
the future, and as your correspondent
looked down from the porch on the bevy
of gay, vivacious young bridesmaids and
the ardent group of their gallants, all
seemed to preclude the idea of any of
them ever becoming spinisters or bachelors.
The elated bridal party returned about
sunset to the home of the bride's fond
parents, where a huge horseshoe table
(enclosing the waiters with the bride and
groom at the head outside) laden with the
richest viands which was heartily partaken
of by all present, and afterwards
the pleasures of the evening were participated
in until a late hour.
The bridal presents were beautiful but
too numerous to mention and describe in
a limited space, and description of trousseau,
etc., will be left to abler pens.
,There were visitors from Brunson, Fairfax,
Sycamore and Allendale, among
those of the latter being Henry Wolff
with his wife, nee Pearlstine, and her
niece, of New York ; Mrs. White, of
Cameron; and Mr. and Mrs. Hurd,
friends of the groom, of New Decatur,
Ala. The last two, in company with the
bride and groom, with her brother, Alonzo,
will leave on Tuesday next for their home
in the Southwest.
To reverse the usual order there is
given below the names of the the flower
girls, ushers and waiters: Annie May
White and Sadie Harter, Messrs. Ben
Bronson and Whilden McMillan, Miss
Ada Sanders with George Ulmer, Miss
Viola Weekly with Otis Deer, Miss
Mollie Creech with Jas. Wideman, Miss
Addie Alexander with Elvin Deer, Miss
Mattie Kinard with Arthur Cave, Miss
Lena Deer with Gordon Boynton.
Let it be added that the festivities did
not cease with Thursday night's reception
supper, for on Friday an enjoyable infare
was given at noon to the nuptial party at
the home of Mr. Jas. McMillan in Great
Cypress township.
If any errors are noted in the foregoing
statements, please ask your interested
readers, Mr. Editor, not to censure too
hastily, as the writer could not gain entrance
to the building during the ceremony
and was not an eye-witness to the
supper. S. O. J.
The people who need religion are:
The man who lets his horse stand out in
the cold all day, without a blanket; the
man who growls like a hyena when his
wife asks him for money; a woman who
whispers that another woman is not
what she ought to be; the man who keeps
a dog, and then says he cannot afford to
give to the poor. These are they who need
it and seldom have it. And there's no
way of getting it to them. Keligion is a
thiug you must go after if you want it.
A THOUGHTFUL MAN.
M. M. Austin, Winchester, Ind.. knew
what to do in the hour of need. His wife
had such an unsual case of stomach and
liver trouble, physicians could not help
her. He thought of and tried Dr. King's
New Life Pills and she got relief at once
and was cured. Only 25c, at J. B. Black;
H. C. Rice, Denmark.
Good Reason.
A school inspector, explaining to his
class that tne lana or ine worm was nor
continuous, said to the boy who happened
to be standing nearest to him:
"Now, could your father walk round
the world ?"
"No, sir," was the prompt reply.
"Why not?"
"Because he's broken his leg," was the
altogether unlooked for response.
COUGH MEDICINE FOR CHILDREN.
When you buy a cough medicine for
small children you want one in which you
can place confidence. You want one that
not only relieves but cures. You want
one that is harmless. You want one that
is pleasant to take. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy meets all these conditions. There
is nothing so good for coughs and colds
incident to childhood. It is a certain preventive
and cure for croup, and there is
no danger from whooping cough when it
is given. It has been used in epidemics of
that disease with perfect success. For sale
by Bamterg Pharmacy; H. C. Rice.
