like those used in this country. It is over
two feet in length and a foot and a half
wide. Instead of printed matter, it con
tains pictures representing the different
features of the show in actual progress.
There are some hieroglyphics on the sheet,
but nobody but a Chinaman can decipher
them. The sheet is a curiosity.

THE PRIMA DONNA OF THE CONRIED OP
ERA COMPANY THE EX-WIFE OF
A FORMER SAVAXNAEAIN.
The prima donna of the Conried Opera
Company, which opens an engagement
at the opera house on Wednesday night, is
Miss Bettina Padelford, who will assume
the leading role in the “Gypsy Baron.”
The husband of this young lady, from
whom she separated some time since, was
Archer Padelford, son of the late Edwnrd
J. Padelford, at one time a leading cotton
merchant of Savannah.
About four years ago young Padelford
met the young lady, who is now an opera
singer, and who was Miss Bettie Ordwav,
a daughter of Gen. Ordway, whose hand
some residence faces the capitol grounds
in Washington, and fell in love with her.
They were married in Washington, D. C.
The honeymoon was spent abroad. They
did not find married life a success, and in
a few months separated.
The wife, who had been a dashing belle
in Washington society for several years
previously, determined to adopt the stage.
She naturally had a musical voice and a
systematic course of instruction had so de
veloped it that she was regarded as a sweet
singer among Washington society folks.
She found an engagement with Conried’s
Opera Company, with which she made her
debut in “The King’s Fool,” and in which
she won distinct success. Through the ex
perienced training of Heinriech Conreid
she has become one of the most popular
prima donnas before the public. Among
the songs is “My Love is Fair Columbia.”
It was recently reported in a New York
paper that the Padelfords were divorced a
few weeks ago. Mr. Padelford is living in
New York now. Miss Ordway was the
acknowledged belle of White Sulphur
Springs during her visits there several sea
sons ago. It was at the White Sulphur
that she won considerable notoriety.
Among the society people of that
place were several young men and
young ladies. At a private supper,
after an evening of social amuse
ment, champagne flowed as freely as water,
and the select party became unusually gay.
Miss Ordway spoke of an ancient German
custom that required beaux to drink wine
from the slippers of their sweethearts.
She had nc idea that she had brought the
old custom into fashion, but a quick-witted
young man, who was a favorite admirer,
asked why it should not prevail in the
gathering. The idea was immediately ac
cepted by all the gallants, and the result
was a challenge to Miss Ordway from the
devoted youth. She accepted it, removing
her dainty slipper and filling it with the
sparkling wine. Amid the plaudits of the
party the young man drained the slipper.
The news of this uncommon event leaked
out and got into the newspapers. Miss
Ordway returned to Washington, where
she found her social companions talking of
the affair. It was the subject of botli
common and uncommon gossip, in and out
of society, for some time. It was shortly
after this episode that Miss Ordway mar
ried young Padelford.
BURRUS-BROWN.
RANKIN HOUSE ARRIVALS.
UNION OF A POPULAR AND HANDSOME
YOUNG COUPLE.
The elegant residence of Mr. James H
Brown, on Second avenue, was the scene
of a joyous and happy event last evening,
the occasion being the marriage of Miss
Gena Brown to Mr. L. M. Burrus.
The interesting ceremony was performed
at 8 o’clock, in the spacious and beauti
fully decorated parlors, by Dr. Robert H.
Harris, only relatives of the happy bride
and groom being present.
Miss Brown is the only daughter of Mr,
and Mrs. James H. Brown. She is one of
the sweetest, prettiest and most attractive
young ladies in Columbus. Mr. Burrus is
a son of the late Mr. L. M. Burrus, and
holds a responsible position at the Ala
bama warehouse.
The bride and groom are favorites with
a large circle of friends, with whom the
Enquirer-Sun joins in wishing them a
happy and prosperous married life.
THE MOBILE AND GIRARD.
DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY RELEASE
LANDS TO THE GOVERNMENT.
The directors of the Mobile and Girard
Railroad Company met at the office of the
company, in this city, yesterday afternoon,
Present, Dr. N. P. Banks, president;
Judge William H. Brannon, Hon. John
Peabody and Captain C. E. Hoelistrasser,
directors.
A resolution was passed, providing for
the release of certain lands held by the
company to the United States Govern
ment.
The resolution was merely a formality,
in line with the action of the board on No
vember 17. The resolution was adopted
at the request of the Secretary of the In
terior.
The lands go to the Yankirk Land Com
pany, that company having agreed to
build the extension from Troy to Andelu-
sia. Work on the extension is being
pushed with great vigor, and there is now
every reason for the belief that it will he
completed by next May or J une.
A MYSTERIOUS STABBING.
A NEGRO GIRL BADLY CUT WHILE
ASLEEP.
At a late hour Saturday night, Pinkie
King, a daughter of William King, colored,
was stabbed twice in the side at her
father’s home, three miles east of the city.
The woman says she was asleep at the
time the stabbing was done and could give
no cause for the attack on her.
Archie Smith, a negro boy, was arrested
Sunday afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Mc-
Michae) and Bailiff Crane, charged with
the stabbing. He was carried before Jus
tice Bowles yesterday morning for a pre
liminary trial. On account of the condi
tion of the girl who was slabbed, the case
was postponed until next Monday.
Dr. Sims attended the girl and found
that she was badly hurt. Jealousy is said
to have caused the stabbing.
Judge Martin Expected Today.—
Hon. J. H. Martin, of Talbotton, who was
recently elected judge of the superior court
of the Chattahooche circuit, to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Judge
James M. Smith, is expected to reach the
city today.
It is generally believed that a special
term of Muscogee court will be held for the
transaction of criminal business. The
new judge will be disqualified in a large
number of important cases on the docket,
on account of being employed as associate
counsel for defendants. This being the
case, it is thought likely that Judge Martin
will exchange places with the judge of
another circuit for the special term, which
will probably be convened sometime in
January. There are a large number of
prisoners in jail awaiting trial, and it is
probable that the special term will last for
some time.
Tried to Burn a Gin House.—Satur
day night an attempt was made to burn
the gin house of Pitts & McCullohs, at
Waverly Hall. Fire was discovered among
the seed cotton about 9 o’clock at night,
and fortunately had made very little head
way at the time. The flames were ex
tinguished before much damage had been
done. There were sixty or seventy bales
of cotton in and about the gin house, and
but for the timely discovery of the fire the
loss would have been heavy. There is no
clew to the identity of the incendiary.
