A Marriage Cerllflcate Produced by the First Mrs. Owens' Brother. Limi-kin June 5.—[Special.]—S. P. Owens is a bigamist. His commitment trial was held here to-day and the evi dence was vory clear as to his guilt, clear that after the state had closed, Mr. Harris, attorney for Qjjpna, waived committment and his bond was fixed at $300, which he was unable to give. He will remain in jail until October,when he will leave for the penitentiary. His brother-in-law, Thomas Ward, of Put nam county, was the main witness, and his evidence is substantially as follows: Owens married MariahWard In 1878 and deserted her about two years ago. He left her with six children, but occa sionally sent her money. After he had been in Cordele rome time, a friend wrote Mrs. Owens that he (Owens) was dead, and returned his trunk and other things which belonged to him. This happened after he became engaged to Miss Leila Morton. Mr. Ward bad with him a certified copy of the marriage from the ordinary of Jasper county, and also had a picture of Owens. Owens still denies the truth of his former mar riage, and says it is a trumped up affair. Everyone iiere sympathizes deeply with the young lady and her family, but are indignant with Owens. Miss Morton is still in Anniston,, and intends remaining there, so Madame Rumor says. Interesting Services Tu-inorrow.
