A BRILLIANT WEDDING j In Which Henry and Pike Counties are Joined by Silken Ties. Wednesday afternoon, at one o’clock, ; a large and fashion able assembly filled i the Baptist church to witness the wed ding ceremony which united Mr. (’has. P. Jordan, of .Molena, and Miss Cora L. Kimbell, of McDonough. This wedding was one looked for ward to with great interest by our young people, as two young people— one of w hum was known and admired by all—had plighted ilieir troth to the other. The public marriage of Miss Kim bell at the church was bailed with much pleasure as affording an oppor tunity of “tirsting the very great ap preeiation and esteem iu which she was held bv her many friends. Young and old turned out to witness the bridal nuptials of this young lady —who is one of society’s fairest daughters. Within the church all was brilliancy and beauty. Wa found tha' tbe floral kingdom bad paid generous end willing tribute to this pleasant and interesting j occasion. The church was bedecked with garlands of evergreen, into which were woven, with artistic effect, white and red roses. Near the altar, reach ing across both aisles, was a beautiful floral arch ; and just under this arch, at the termination of the aisles were two gates made of brilliant flowers and feathery ferns; while smpended just over the altar was a wedding bell. The wedding party entered tbe church as the soulful melody of the wedding march pealed forth from coruett and organ uuder the magic touch of Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. Nolan. The bridal procession as it passed down the aisle- was a panorama of bril liant and glowing colors. The brides maids weie ali of them women of rare grace and loveliness, and their trailing robes and gorgeous floweis lent to them a perfection of grace rarely seen. The ushers were : Mr. J. B. Newman and Mr. Lemuel < ’armicluiel. The attendants came down the aisles in the following order : E F. Adams and Miss Kallie Tom liuson. G. E. Knott and Miss L’arrie Du pree. T. J Brown and Miss Lizzie Brooks. Immediately proceeding the bride and groom came little Misses Cora Betts and Estelle Kimbell who threw the gates ajar foi the party to pass, wdffle following in their wake were tvyo winsome little girhs. Misses Lois Dickson and Annie Lou ( ope land scattering flowers from two dainty baskets. The bride, accompanied by her maid of honor, Miss Leola Brown, proceed ed down the right aisle, and were im mediately followed by tbe groom and bis best man, Mr. W. 11. Mitchell. Passing under the arch and through the floral gates they stopped just under the marriage bell, and there the sol emu nuptial vows were takeu that made them man and wife. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. 11. Prichard, of Gritfiu, in a most impressive and beautiful niaiinei. The arrangements were entirely af ter the English fashiou, and were as graceful and effective a 9 they were unique, Mr. Jordan comes into our midst a stranger, yet we feel sure that he is eminently worthy of the lovely bride lie lias won, and that as tbe husband of Miss Kimbell’s choice, he is a gentle man of honor, refinement and position. All hearts unite and go out in a gener ous and tender glow of interest in be half of the newly wedded pair. We t ust that they may encounter naught but favoring gales and prosper ous breezes in their voyage on the ocean of life, and finally that they may find a safe and happy anchorage in the haven of rest. Just as we were going to press we learned of the mairiage of Mr. S. E. Smith to Miss Ola B. Fargason, at the residence of the bride’s father, Mr. R. H. Fargason, on the evening of tbe 24tl inst, Rev. John E Rosser offi ciating. Both of tbe young people were members of the best families in McMullen’s district. Owing to the 'ateness of the hour we are unable to give a full account of this happy affair in this issue, but promise a more ex tended one in our next.

Prisoners Make an Attempt to Break Jail, But are Prevented by Timely Discovery, The prisoners of Henry county jail were very near escape last Saturday. They have been secret.y at work, it is not known how long, and would have been out in a short while longer, if not discovered just when they were On last Saturday morning, after a clever piece of strategy, the fact was discovered that lor some time several of the prisoners, it was not known who, had been working with tools and were nearly ready to break out. It was found that four bars of the iron cage had been cut nearly through, and a search revealed two or three new files and a saw all of which were well nigh worn out from use. Owing to the supposed absolute salety oi the cage, such a thing as escape was not to be considered after a prisoner was in it, and they had no difficulty to keep the tools hid when not at workJ Each prisoner denied any knowledge of the tools or worjt, and it is impos sible to ascertain who did it cr how they proctfted them. Sheriff Glass made another search next day, and as he was about leaving without finding anything further, he accidentally thrust his hand up a flue just outside of the bars-and discovered two more files in some rags. Suit will be seen that the prisoners were well supplied ami with but a little more time would have sueceded in escaping from one of the safest jails to be found anywhere Hinty county has a wriiten gjaran tee from the company furnishing it that this cage is absolutely saw and tile proof. Hence tbe news of this so nearly successful escape created much surprise. Sheriff Glass has communi cated to the company what lias been done, with a demand to rectify, and the result is awaitt d with interest, r Tbe question is, was the job in our jail a defective one, or is it simply that prisoners canuot be put behind bars where escape is impossible ? Col. Zacliry for Governor. Henry county may furnish tbe lißxt Governor of Georgia. Who knows ? The Atlanta Journal says “State Senator Zaeliry, of Henry county, is mentioned by many prominent alliance men as the next candidate of the far mers for Govenor.” And just here we will guy to our home alliance friends, why not.,, urge him for the race P Ol Zachry lias not only made alli ance fritnds over Georgia, but has nu merous war comrades throughout the State who are warm admirers ami would be glad to see him elevated to any position. He gained much popularity also with his colleagues in the halls of legisla tion, and would doubtless derive a hearty support from that direction. In short, he has more claims to the gubernational chair than many less prominent names that are mentioned Then, why not his friends see that lie is brought out ? Here’s for Henry county to be in tbe race for Governor—and to win. Florida Vestiliule Train To be inaugurated next Sunday, November 29, by the E. T. V. & (J.
