WEDDED IN THE RING. Bride and Groom Form a Chief At traction at a Show. Bpceial by News Telegiam Association. Reading, Pa., August 14.—A unique anti unexpected feature was introduced at the evening performance of T. R. Bulk's <dK*us in the shape of a wedding ceremony in the ring. The bride was Miss Lizzie Jones, of this city, and the groom was I). O. Bauman, formerly a resident of Kphrata. Lancaster county, but recently employed as driver by the Reading Transfer Company. The cir cus was exhibiting at the lot, Sixth and Greenwich streets, and the regular per formance . had just been completed, wheu, with the consent of the manage ment, the bridal party entered the ring, stepping to the music ol Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March,” played to order by the circtis band. The groom was ac companied by Alderman Kramer, T. K. Burke and J. W. Lovelauce, and the bride was attended by Miss Jennie Al- wood. A platform had been erected in the ring, and this the party mounted. Alderman Kramer tied the nuptial knot. After the ceremony the groom kissed the bride in traditional fashion, and the couple received the congratulations of their friends. The audience meanwhile had been looking on with breathless in terest, and when it was all over they set up a mighty cheer. At the conclusion of the wedding the management of the circus presented $100 in cash to thecou- ple, who left the circus grounds in a coupe, followed by the lusty cheers of the multitude. Prison Rioters at Work. Boston, Aug. 10.—After ten days close confinement in the cells of the Charleston State prison, in consequence of the recent riot, two-thirds of the prisoners went to work this morning. The majority of them were pleased with the idea of resuming work, for confine ment in individual cells is as great a punishment to the well-disposed prison er as can be inflicted. No disturbance occurred. The shoe and brush shops, where the rioters smashed and damaged the machinery, are not quite ready for use. The ringleaders in the disturbance were in prison parlance, ’‘planted” in cells in the prison proper, which means that they will remain where placed for some time to come, a mild form of pun ishment as compared with incarcera tion in Fort Russell. Kemmler’s Executioners Criticised. London, Aug. 16.—The Lancet, the leading medical organ, discussing the Kemmler execution, says: “The oper ators in the Kemuiler case used their mimic lightning with all the clumsiness of mortal inability. They burned the skull and a portion of the back, and ex ploded the sinuses of the brain. No doubt they were fortuuate enough lo render the man senseless at the first blow, just as they would have done if they had struck him on the head and back with a red-hot hammer, but there was found no mark of the electrical cur rent in or through the viscera of the body. The man was killed by concus sion of the brain and explosion within the closed cavity of the skull, just as a man may be killed by apoplexy or sun stroke.” He Stole a House. Special by News Telepram Association. Cairo, 111., August 15.—H. M. Britt, an employee of the Catche levee in this county, hailing from St. Louis, is un der arrest in this city charged with stealing a house from Tom Easley. The latter had built the house on a piece of land and rented it, but the renter gave it up seveial months ago. Some days ago Easley went to repair it for the tenant, but it was gone. After a long search he found it, several miles from the farm, near the Cetche levee, and oc cupied by Britt, who had deliberately taken it down and set it up again in its new location. MRS. SCHULER ELOPES. New York Woman Leaves Her Home 1 for Good. Special by News Telegram Association. Nkw York, August 15.—The Herald reports the disanpearance from her home of Mrs. Henry Schuler, wife of Henry Schuler, manufacturer of musical in struments. The woman took with her her 13-year-old daughter and $700 of her husband’s money. She is believed to have eloped with a music teacher named Frederick Schwartz, with whom she has long been infatuated. Schwartz is 27 years of age, and married, while Mrs. Schuler is 4S years old. THE PRICE OF SHOES GOES UP. An Increase In the Costof Leather Causes an Advance of 10 to 30 Per Cent. Special by News Telegram Association. Newark, N. J., August 14.—The shoe manufacturers have notified the retail dealers in the city that in conse quence of the increase in the pric e of leather there will he an advance on nearly every grade of shoes of 10 to 30 per cent, according to the quality of leather used. Some classes of shoes have not yet been raised, hut it is ex pected they will bo shortly. This means au increase of 20 to 25 per cent, in iLe cost of shoes to the public. Wrote His Feelings Too Forcibly. Lancaster, Aug., 14.—United States Commissioner Kennedy today held Charles McClellan Gabriel, of Colum bia, in $u00 hail to answer the charge of sending an obscene letter through the niails. Jn October, 1889, Gabriel was in Denver, Col., attending the meeting of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En gineers. He bought a watch in an auc tion room and it turned out to be com paratively worthless. Gabriel wrote a letter to the auction house people in language far more forcible than elegant. The recipient sent the letter to the Postofllco department, .and Inspector Moore, of eastern Pennsylvania, was or dered to prosecute Gabriel. A Disastrous Cloud-Burst. Special by News Telegram Association. Colorado Si-rings, Col., August 15 —One of«the most disastrous rains, which resulted in a cloud-burst, occur red in this city yesterday, and the re sult ii that two lives are lost, and it is feared that the families who were camp ing on Dry creek are lost also. The cloud came from the northwest. The damage willamount to at least $200,000 in the city and vicinity. At Rockyford all irrigating ditches were overflowed and broken, doing g.-env^injury to the tounding country. PICKETT TO WINN. CHALLENGED TO JOINT DISCUS SION. The Movntaln Independent Challen ges the Democratic Nominee to a Joint Discussion of Affairs—H*ls Committee Named—His Remarks Special by News Telegram Association. Atlanta, August 16.—Rev Tliad Pickett, independent candidate for con gress iu th : J;h jr irgi i district, lia s sent the following communication to Hon. Thomas Winn, deuioui aiic nomi nee for congress in the same dis trict. Bali. Ground, Ga., A ugust 15 1890. Col. Thomas E Winn. Lawrknce- vii.le, Ga. : Dear Sir:—I am acantl - date for the fifty-second congress, sub ject to the free ballot of every qualified voter of the 9th congressional district, to be cast next November, at a time provided for by law, at which election we have the guarantee of our grand old State that our ballots shall be duly pro tected and fairly counted, and the can didate receiving the majority of votes shall declared elected. This is all I shall ask for, and but for corrupt men,whose ambition is to serve their personal greed by crying the par tisan spirit; to sever the strength of the toiling masses; to make of them hewers of wood and draw ers of water, while they themselves desire a seat of luxury. I say but for such corrupt demagogues we can safely trust, not to bayonet, but to honest ballot, the pride of American liberty and the price of American blood. We have now come to the place in our political reform, that it will require the moral courage of every honest man to fift his hands, and pull down, and raise his feet, and stamp underneath, every corrupt method used to obtain public olfice, which is a public trust imposed for the protection of every citizen. If we would have good government we must have good men to make the laws to govern. If it was not for iny claim and right to run this race, made so by the voice of ten thousand liberty loving citizens who cast their ballots for me two years a f?°» you would now be congressman, made so the act of less than one-fifth of. the qualified voters of the district. Your claims to this were: First. As au Allianceman, which, it the Principle shall speak for itself, de clares in a strictly non-partisan spirit. Second. In a strictly partisan spirit to re-enter, and start again, pledging yourself to support partisan politics. Although you have gone to Gaines ville twice to start to congress, the route is by Ball Ground. You are now as dependent on the whole people* as I am independent ol the few who try to rule the tuauy. Wc are both afoot again. I npw invite you to enter with me in to a joint discussion of the issues in volved in this campaign. The financial pidiey of our govern ment is now questioned. The scarcity of money as a circulating medium and how to increase it, the bur den of taxation borne by the laboring masses, and how to lesseu it; the in debtedness of the farmers, and how to relieve them; these, together with other public questions, the people have a right to demand and hear discussed by their candidates. I assure you, sir, as a brother Alli- anceman, so far as 1 am concered, the discussion >h dl be carried out on a high plane of dignified courtesy. I now name Captain P. H. Lyon, chaimau, Dr. C, Pickett and Capiaiu John B. Richards, who will act as a committee for me to meet a like committee of your choice, who will name the times and places of our meetings. As this challenge comes from a moun taineer, its motive is as high as the lofti est peak of the mountains from whence it is borne, and its purpose as pure as the waters which go from its bast*, and by their course find their way to, and act as clarifiers of other streams. Awaiting an early reply, I am Yours truly, T. Pickett. A CRUEL COINCIDENCE. It Occurs to a Boy Said to Have “Spiked” a Train. Special by News Telegram Association. Cincinnati, Ohio, August 16.—Willie Davis, a young lad eleven years of a^e, and son of Mr. Jerry Davis, of 205 Tenth street, met with a terrible acci dent on the Louisville and Nashville railroad at the head of Patterson street, Newport, yesterday morning. Ho, with several companions, was stealing a ride on a freight train on its w*ay to Wil der’s station. Upon reaching the above uoiut the boys all jumped off, and when Willie made the attempt, he fell under the wheels which possed over his right * e K> cutting it entirely in two between the knee and ankle. His left foot was also horribly mangled. He was pieked up and carried to his home, where Drs. Davis and Phythian made an examina tion. The patrol wagon was summoned at once, and the little fellow was re moval to the Good Samaritan Hospital, of this city, where the above physicians amputated both legs, oue at the thigh and the other above the ankle. About a year ago a passenger locomotive jumped the track at the same place caused by a spiked rail, and rolled down the embankment, a distance of about fifteen feet, alighting bottom side up. A baggage coach was also thrown from the track at the same time, and several people were badly injured. Thecompa mn of young Davis ta that he is the boy who laid the spike ou the rail which caused the accident. Of course the hoy was innocent of the great harm he was doing, but it is a peculiar incident that he should lose both legs at the same spot. Boys’ memories are treacherous, however, and they are as a rule fond of the marvelous. The benefit of the doiibt should be given poor Wil lie. A Missionary In Elsgrace. Special by News Telegram Association. Baltimore. August 16.—When Bish op James M. Thoburn, «.f the Methodist Episcopal church, who is the head of tlie South India conference, came to this country recently he brought the nows that the Rev. II. Shiveley, a mis sionary to India, had given up his parch ments. The cause of the surrender has caused a stir in this section, where the Rev. Mr. Shively was well known. He received his education at Dickinson College, and after his ordination as a minister became a member of the .Mary land Conference of the Methodist Epis copal Church. He married a beautiful youna lady of Caroline county. About two vears ago he determined to go as a missionary to India,and was transferred to the Fouth India Conference. During his work tin re he became enamoured of an Indian girl, whom he betrayed, and who has since been living with him as his mistress. IHE ATHENS BANNER: TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 19 1890. BILL NYE IN THE SUKF. HE HAS HIS PICTURE TAKEN IN A BATHING SUIT AND A SMILE. Sir George Pullman's Thinks on the Bright aud Shiny Past—Coney Island and Other Fashionable Watery Places. Who Knows of Van Poller? [Copyright by Edgar W. Nye.] Coney Island this season seems to he a good deal improved as to the character of its patrons. I was told that many of the tougher class had gone to Tuxedo and thus greatly increased tho haut ton of the West End. I had quite a little talk with Mr. Silas Drooler, the artist and tintype impressionist of 'the West End, early in the week regarding this change for the better. He also says TKfSKZS? BY THE SAD SEA WAVES. that many of the canaille of Coney Island have gone to Ocean Grove for the summer. Mr. Drooler took a tin type of mo in bathing costume while I waited; I give it hero with the aid of Mr. McDougall, who has so kindly volunteered before this at times to set me right before the public. Very few people look real well in a bathing cos tume, it seems to me, and this picture would indicate that I am no exception. Bathing in a hired chemiloon with red braid on it does not give me that gentle sense of thorough ablution that I felt when in childhood I defied the police and, clothed in nothing but conscious roc- titudo and a little bag of nssafeetida which I wore around my neck to keep off the prairie mange and other plagues incident to a thorough education, I plunged like a long, buff streak into the bosom of the mill pond. “Oh, them was glorious days,” as Sir George Pullman says in his Night Thoughts. “How lean and meager is the salary we get today compared with the joy that came with froedom and health and fried mush and gentle sleep.” I was speaking to Sir George about it tho other day, and as he charged up a colored porter with tho loss of a towel on his last trip he heaved a sigh, and looked out at window as who should say; “Ah, what recompense have wealth and posi tion for the unalloyed joys of childhood, and how gladly today as I sit iu the midst of my Oriental splendor and costly magnificence a titled foreigner with a glittering order ou my breast, but chaos in my soul, aud thoughtfully run my fingers through my choice hut changing chin whiskers, would I give it all, wealth, fame, title and position,, for one brief, balmy, breezy day gathered from the mellow haze of the long ago, when I stood full knee deep in tho lukewarm pool near my suburban home in tho quiet dell and allowed tho yielding, soothing mud to squirt up between my dimpled toes.” Tho West End is not overrun by wealth and style or russet harnesses or clanging carriage chains, but it has an atmos phere of light melody and freedom from restraint which is real nice, I think. 1 won a cane there daring the week by throwing rings at it. It was not an in tellectual cane, but cheap, aud with a very small development about the head. The more I go to Coney Island and watch the ways of West Enders and cane ven ders the more I notiee that the gold headed canes are so wide across the top that the rings will not bestride them. The cane I got 1ms a nice red typewriter head on it, made of celluloid, and the stick itself is of pure hide bound Woe- hawken mnlugga. It only cost mo eight cents, but the cones I bought and did not get cost me $2.85. Pop com this year is flavored with everything as neatly as soda water and is less gummy, as a young lady from Vassar said to me on the boat as I was holding her hand for her a moment while she was listening to some boat music. Speaking of boat music in New York bay this season, I think I notice n slight improvement in that regard, several of the bauds having been shot by maddened passengers and their places not yet sup plied by others. One entire boat band was bitten by a mad dog in June; also in the calf of the leg, and no one has been raised up to take its place us I write. Much good may be done at times, 1 think, by well directed hydrophobia. A colored quartet who thought they sang on board the excursion boat which last year encircled Staten Island daily now imagine that they are singing at South Beach. For the privilege of wauling on that trip last year these men had to pay the boat a small sum. Toward autumn their wives raised it by laundry efforts. Nothing was paid in by passen gers except ouoe. An ill guided man from Poughkeepsie who was deaf and also absent minded gave them five cents on the 18th of July, but he was observed by another passenger and the next day the body of the Poughkeepsie man was found far out to sea with an airtight stove tied around his neck. These colored gentlemen are dependent solely on their voices and their wives for support. If they were not permitted to obtain their livelihoods by singing they would have to work. I do not dislike these musicians, but their songs, devoid , of anaesthetics, will kill burdocks by the roadside. I like good coon music and I will walk quite a long distance to hear * 1 it. but when it Is so rank that the rest- j less oyBterB turn over in their little oys ter beds and moan as the boqt goes over j them I think it is time to coll a halt. Many able prophets said that this year would see a great falling oil in the at tendance at Coney Island, but I do not notice it. It was said that other new resorts would cut into Coney Island even as the enraged and outraged surf had cut into Brighton Beach; but it is not apparent. New York needs all the breathing holes there are, and though you go to one and think that the multi tude cannot be duplicated you find that it can over and over again at hundrSB of other places, seaward and inland. Good food can be had at Coney Island at a moderate price, many articles com paring favorably as to quality and tariff with thoso in the city. Devilish crabs and lionized potatoes especially are to be had iu great , profusion and at reason able rates to all. Mr. Anton Seidl is holding his recitals at Brighton Beach, and amidst the roar of tlie surf the sweet .music of the orpheelide and germicide may be heard. On the day I attended Mr. Seidl was in real good form. He does not play him self, but merely does the ornamental beckoning, and gives the playing his general approval as it goes along. The programme opened with an over ture. which is frequently the case at such limes, and was followed by a suite of dances by Brail. It was from the Ballet La Champagne, and one could almost imagine that he saw before him tlw graceful, lithe limbed and giddy skippers of the leg-itimato drama. Then came some soft, easy going waltzes by Gounod, Saint-Saens and other able composers. After that Mr. Seidl intro duced a Hungarian rhapsody by the eminent but slightly lecherous Liszt. It was No. 12 of liis rhupsodies, and Mr. Seidl kept good time to it with his little parasol handle. When the music was completed tho applause of the audi ence mingled with that of tho roaring billows outside, and then some more pieces were [flayed with great success, closing with a selection by Nessler, called the “Trumpeter of Skowhegan,” if I am not grossly mistaken. The opera from which it was taken from, os the tautologists have it, was laid on the Rhine, wlioro it was afterward secured and utilized by Mr. Nessler. Mr. 5eif- fert played the trumpet solo in this piece, and was recalled at its close by red message, he being somewhere up to ward the iron pier in order to give his ttrasic the right distance. Mr. Seidl uses only the Cbickering piano at his performances. He uses it- by standing it in the pit with a large monogram tarpaulin over it, bearing the name in tall, gilt letters. Then at the closo of the season Mr. Cbickering throws off this horso blanket or sweater together with half the price aud lots Mr. Seidl have tho piano. He also uses the Mason & Hamlin or gan in a similar way. 1 lectured once in a large city for tho lxmefit of the watermelon sufferers of Georgia, and on tho programmes I found that I “only used the Cbickering, erect, overstrung piano” at all my entertain ments. Somebody did well out of that, but I was not in it, to uso a truism from Socrates. The time will* come when a prinia donna may pause between her selections while tlie orchestra proece<ls with the interlude and, slowly but deftly remov ing her artificial teeth, polish them neatly on her elbow aud call attention to their general good qualities aud biting powers, at tho same time giving the namo cf the maker and thus getting an extra 6et at the end of the season. Mr. Informal Williams, of Ninth av enue, who has practically controlled the jgjetzel market at Pier One for tho past season, has opened a branch at the West End and lust week shipped a whole fish pale full of these toothsome victuals. A hot Frankfurter works at South Beach, owned by Perley Dinkfllflatter, caught on fire last Friday week and was completely gutted. Long Branch looks bright and smiling this season and along the ocean drive many now faces are seen. I frequently savo up enough during tho winter to stop over at Long Branch between boats by being economical. I liko to visit the Branch each suin- mor, and every one is glad to see mo thero and wonders why I cannot stay any longer. It is not because I am prej udiced against tho Branch, bat because I cannot afford in Now, at South Beach I can go from my country Beat at Slippery- elmhnrst-Back-of - tho-Itcservoir-by-the- Sea for five cents. Carrying my o*vn bathing suit, which consists of a knitted chemisette, I repair to 6ome unfrequent ed portiou of tho shore, and after eating a hasty bite of some [Hire food, consist ing in part of cold salt pork held in place is Mr. Van Pelter?” for that was the gentleman’s name who ran the estab lishment. He came not till the break fast was cold, and so several went in search of him. They went up in the garret, where summer guests had been > the habit of hanging themselves, but he was not there. His business had been profitable, so they did not see why he should suicide, unless he was leading what is called a double lifo, and the two families had got acquainted with each other. However, they dragged the Atlantic ocean carefully and got a good many other curiosities, but did not get Mr. Van Pelter. It is now over a year and the corre spondent asks me to kindly mention through these columns that any one giv ing him any information regarding a heavy sot and rather wheezy blonde mole, weighing upwards of 280 pouuds, with iron gray whiskers in his cars and a decided penchant for fried chicken and revivals, will confer a lasting favor upon him by communicating with said gen tleman in my care. Also that any per son interested who will take the trouble to come down to Ocean Grove when Mr. Van Pelter is brought back can see some fun by staying around there for a day or two while he and the tradespeo ple and others renew their acquaintance with Mr. Van Pelter and unravel his works for him.

All of this costs but a trifle, and loayeg me considerable means to use iu the purchase of members of the legislature and other farm produce. I hear some complaint this summer at the bathing places regarding lack of proper caro cf the bathing houses, and the crying uoed of more- cleanliness. One lady at Coney Island this summer, whose homo is on the east side of New York, and whoso hnsliand made his money by a judicious system of sanitary plumbing and unsanitary charges for same, told me that her eldest daughter, Elfrida, came home after utilizing ono of those public bath houses and her cloth ing was just literally covered with er mine. People can’t ho too careful in that way. A correspondent writes me from Ocean Grove to know what he shall do about collecting a slight bill of $500 against the landlord of a boarding house there who rented ahouse of the writer last summer for that sum.

It has caused no little surprise here that there should be some doubt exist- ; ing outside of the state with regard to the exact date when the present charter . of The Louisiana State Lottery Conipa- i ny expires. This is plainly expressed | in the charter of the company, which ' being a public document is on file and readily accessible. Even the present charter does not terminate until 1895. j Moreover, an amendment has been or- ' dered by the legislature of the state to '1 e people, by which the charter or the company will be extended to the year li*19. Charters are necessarily granted for a limited time, and their renewal is a mere matter of form. This has been fully provided for,. as anyone familiar with the facts of the case must know.
