A WILD WESTERN WEDDING.

by a Justice of the Peace.
Yonkers Statesman.
It appears that Jonas Burton had
been chosen Justice of the Peace of one
the small Wyoming towns, not because
he was possessed of any special quali
fications for the office, but on account
of his personal magnetism, which had
about it all those qualifications which

,i i • r | Indians more devoted to agriculture
go to make the yellow dog a thing of !
, , . , , n and more stationary in then liaDits
beauty and a ]oy forever to lovers of | r generally
pure cussedness. Among other func
tions of his office Hon. Jonas one day
found himself called upon to join in
the “bond of padlock,” as matrimony
is sometimes called in the West, a raw
young couple from up the country.
His honor was appalled at the situa
tion. lie could commit a horse-thief
to the gallows with all the elegance and
impressiveness of manner which that
act demanded. He could sentence a
man to jail for life for holding five aces
in his hand at poker, without turning
a hair, but as to “man-yin’ folks, he
wasn’t in it, be goslilemitey!” But as
J ustiee of the Peace he had to do it,
and his perturbation of spirit w r as
dreadful to witness.
About an hour before the ceremony
was to take place the correspondent,
accompanied by one of the leading cit
izens of the place, was sent to the
squire’s cabin and found him poring
over a large volume of the statutes of
Wyoming, sweating like a horse and
looking terribly anxious. After greet
ing the callers, he said:
“Stiles, the durned galoots that got
up these laws hadn’t gumption enough
to last them over night. I’ve run thro’
the blamed book half a dozen times and
can’t find a dodblasted word about
mafermonv, or how the hitching busi
ness is proceeded with. I’ve just got
to put the clamps on this couple, hit or
miss, an’ ef I don’t yoke ’em up legal
I can’t help it.”
“Oh,” said Stiles, “just do the best
you can. Any kind of ceremony will
do in this country, for people never
question the legality of the thing. I’ll
post you as well as I can.”
Stiles then explained to him how he
should proceed, and the old man
thought, finally,he could worry through
it. Ere long the couple appeared fol
lowed by a crowd of the citizens of the
camp. The candidates stood up before
the old squire, who said:
“Feller citizens, this yer man and
this yer woman have appeared before
this Court to be hitched in the legal
bands of wedlock. If any galoot in
the mob knows of anything that mout
block the game if tuk to a higher Court
let him now toot his bazooo, or else
keep his jaw to himself now and for
ever more. All in favor of me pro
ceedin'* according to law say ‘I.’ ”
Everyboydy said “I.”
“Contrary, ‘no.’ ”
Nobody said “no.”
“The motion is carried unanimously,
an’ the court rules that tliar ain’t
nuthin’ to prevent the try in’ of the
case. Grip your fins.” The candidates
joined hands. “Amos Peabody, do
you solemnly sw’ar that you’ll freeze
to Mandy forever an’ ever ? Thet you’ll
■love her an’ pervide i'er her an’ treat
her square an’ white, accordin’ to the
rules and regulations sot down to gov
ern sich cases in the laws o’ the United
States, so help you God?”
“Yaas. sir; I do, sir.”
“That fixes your end o’ the bargain.
Maudy Thomas, (•> you .solemnly sw’ar
that ye’ll liang on to Amos for all
canin’ time; tliai y 'll nu-.-s him in sick- .
ness an’ be square to him in wellness; ;
that ye’ll be to him a good, true, lion-;
est, up an’ up wife, under the penalty I
prescribed hv the laws for the punish-j
meat of sich offenses; do ye sw’ar this,
so help you God V
“I sw’ar I will.’’
“Tlieu by the power in me vested as
J ustiee of the Peace, in an’ fur this decs-
trick, I pronounce you, Amos Peabody,
husband, an’ you, Mandy Thomas,
wife, an’ legalize ye to remain as such
now ail’ furever more; an' ye’ll stand
committed till the fees an’ costs in the
case be paid in full, an' may God have
mercy on your souls, and bless this
union with his heftiest- blessings.”
The fees and' costs were adjusted,
ami, after receiving the congratulations
of the assembly, the newly made lius-
than the hunting tribes
known to the whites.
3. No single implement or article of
manufacture or earthwork or defensive
work has been found among their re
mains indicating intelligence or ad
vancement in civilization beyond that
of other Indians having intercourse
with the whites within the historic pe
riod.
4. The accumulation of dense popula
tion in favored localities, and progress
made towards civilization were proba
bly the results of periods of repose and
peace that enabled these tribes to col
lect in more permanent habitations,
and to pursue for a time a more peaceful
mode of life than some of their neigh
bors and. successors.
5. These periods of peace and ad
vancement were probably succeeded
by years of want, invasions, migrations,
or changes which arrested the limited
development in the arts of peace or
civilization, and left the native tribes
in the status in which they were found
by the whites.
These propositions can be successful
ly maintained,' and will afford the most man
reasonable solution of the arcluelogi-
cal problems long in controversy. If
we could have been given a glimpse of
the fair valley of the Cumberland in
1492, the date of America’s discovery,
there can scarcely be a doubt but that
we would have learned the story of the
mounds and graves from some of their
own builders; hut nearly three centu
ries elapsed before the pioneers of civ
ilization reached the confines of Ten-
Suddenly Stricken Blind.
Cincinnati Enquirer.
A catastrophe such as few men have
the •stoicism to bear and few survive
has come like a thunderclap upon
Charles Cullman, of 52 Browne street.
Last Saturday night, while auditing
the books of the Bellevue Building As
sociation, at their rooms on McMicken
avenue, he turned suddenly to one of
the bystanders and angrily exclaimed:
“Why do you turn out the gas? I’m
not through yet ?”
“Turn out the gas! What’s the
matter with you? The gas is burn
ing.”
‘*l\Iy God, then I’m blind!” cried
Cullman, and sinking back in his chair,
from which he had risen in his excite
ment, he buried his face in his hands
and moaned and wept like a child.
Dr. Schwartmeyer, his regular physi
cian, was hastily sent for, and only ar
rived to confirm the worst fears.
Cullman was indeed blind.
Without a premonitory sign, without
a warning, the blow had come, and
as he sat there bemoaning his sad . fate
his eyes grew dim. Friends took him
by the hand and trembled with emo
tion as they tried to speak words of
hope and comfort. The stricken man
only moaned, “My wife 1 My little
ones!”
Tenderly they led him staggering
to his home. The wife was cautiously
prepared for his'home-coming. lleroi-
. ally si erved li rself for t he ordeal,
but her strength gave way as she met
her husband’s tottering step. Her four
little ones, the eldest not yet twelve
years and the youngest a mere toddler,
clung to her skirts and echoed the sobs
if the. mother, and the scene that fol
lowed beggars description. Sunday
| morning l)rs. Ayers and Saltier, the
| noted specialists, were summoned. A j
! Vngthy examination by these gentle- 1
I men only confirmed the verdict already j
j given. A diagnosis followed, and it i
was discovered that Cullman had for j
some time been a sufferer from Bright’s j
; disease of the kidneys. The exuda-
! tions of albumen from these organs I
caused uraemic blood-poisoning, which
gradually pervaded the whole system I
of the sufferer. Step by step the dis-;
and will look only at the grand result
of pledges kept and realized for the
good of all. The administration of Mr.
Cleveland has justified his election. It
has been honest—and how much that
means when we consider recent history I
It has been temperate, wise, steady and
patriotic. In my judgment, the peo
ple will not change it for something
they |know not of. The people are
more concerned in good government-
honest trusteeship of the common
stock—than most politicians suppose.
One disappointed politician will make
more noise than a thousand good voters
who have neither been appointed or
disappointed. But the thousand votes
count.
“This year I think they will be with
Mr. Cleveland. He is stronger person
ally with the masses Shan lie was four
years ago; the party is stronger also in
the confidence of the country, only ten
tatively given at the last election. We
have been on trial mere than three
years. The party and the- President may
have made mistakes—but there are spots
on the sun. But the country has been
served with wisdom aiid integrity, and
that is exactly what the people stipu
lated for when they selected Mr. Cleve
land four years ago. They will prefer
a repetition of this service x-ather than
risk the untried—or too much tried-
administration that may be offered by
the other side.”

Struck Him for a Loan.
Washington Letter.
A Texan in Washington once applied
to Congressman Culberson for a little
temporary loan, promising to pay it
back in thirty days if he lived. Months
went by and the loan was not paid.
One day the Texan met Mr. Culberson
and extended his hand. The Congress-
stared and didn’t shake hands.
After a few embarrassing moments' lie
drawled out:
“I don’t know you, sir.”
“Oh yes, you do,” said the Texan.
“I am Mr. Blank, of San Antonio.”
Culberson shook his head as lie re
plied with gravity:
“You are not the Blank, of San Anto
nio, that I knew. He is dead. He bor
rowed some money of me and said he
would return it in thirty days if lie liv
ed. That was a year ago. I have nev
er seen the money, so I know Mr.
Blank, of San Antonio, is dead, for lie
was a man of his word.”
The Texan stammered and shame
facedly said: “I haven’t got the mon
ey just at present, but ”
“You don’t owe me a d—d cent,
sir,” interrupted Mr. Culberson in liis
imperturbable manner. “The man I
refer to is dead, or he would have paid
the money.”
The San Antonio man disappeared
and he has carefully kept away from
Congressman Culberson ever since.. He
holds an office in the treasury depart
ment.
After agonizing for eight months on
the ragged edge, young Perkins mus
tered up-courage enough to declare his
passion for the beautiful Miss Wiswall,
and was sweetly and graciously ac
cepted.
“My own darling !” he cried, joyfully
folding her to his heaving breast, “How
very, very happy you make me ! And
you do love me ?”
“Y-e-e-s, Harry, I—listen !”
“What is it, my angel?”
“Nothing. I was mistaken. Go on,
dear.”
“My precious one! If you only
knew ”
“Listen, dear.”
“What is it? No one is coming. Let
us he happy—happy in ”
“Hush—listen ! No; I am not. mis
taken this time. The newsboy is com
ing with the evening paper, and lam
so anxious, to know if the Detroit or
Boston club won to-day. Won’t you
run and get the paper, darling ?”

Ai. ri’iciUi ol History.
Patient and systematic research, a
vast accumulation of valuable material,
and a thorough analysis of facts and
theories by competent authority, have j Cullman is well and favorably known
finally unraveled nearly all the secrets , in this city. Formerly a clerk of the
of these works and graves, as well as J probate court, be left that position to
their origin and the mysteries of their assume the receivership of Tempest,
construction and of ancient domestic life
in Tennessee—and, indeed, elsewhere
in the Mississippi Valley—represented
by them are nearly as well known as
the life and history of the modern In
dians.
The conclusions reached (often un
willingly) as the result of these investi
gations in all departments of research,
historic, etliologic and traditional, maj
be briefly stated as follows:
1. The progress made by these an-
• cieiit tribes in the direction of civiliza
tion or semi-civilization has been over
estimated. The stone grave race and
the builders of the ancient mounds
and earthworks in Tennessee and prob-
Brochmend & Sampson's pottery, at
No. 440 Richmond street. When the
firm’s affairs became regulated he took
the position of bookkeeper with March
& Howard. Cullman was also secretary
of the Mohawk No. 1, and Bellevue
building associations. His family is in
comfortable circumstances,which some
what softens the blow. Cullman is
but 25 years old and contracted liis dis
ease by overwork and exposure.

Down Two Years With Rheumatism
and Now Entirely Well.
I have been troubled with rheumatism for
two years; had gotten so I could scarcely
wa'k, and was in pain nearly all the time. At
night could not 'sleep for the excruciating
pain. The bone iu one of my legs was very
much enlarged, and I feared that amputation
would be necessary. After trying many dii-
ferent patent medicines claiming to cure
rheumatism and other complaints, I was- al
most discouraged- unt il about two weeks ago,
when I had to give up business, Mr. W. J.
Willingham, of your city, hearing of my com
plaint, advised the use of your medicine, and
assured, me of his confidence in it as a cure
for rheumatism. I at once purchased a bot
tle, hoping it might relieve me, but not having
much faith in it, or in .anything else; but,
thafikGod, I: am very muen relieved, aito I
firmly believe I will get entirely well. The
swelling lias gone down and I am in no pain
whatever. Am at work tigaiB, and have been
for several days. Can run up and down the

CHEERY WORDS.
For th Citizfns u-- Tyler and Smith
County, as Uttered by John M.
Adams, of the Firm ok McOay
& Adams, Druggj i s.
I have been a practical druggist in Tyler for
a number of years, and in that time have had
occasion to examine, try,and uotie - ti e ctlcct
of neartv all the highly reconi mended prepar
ations or patent medic nes on the market, as
I hive suffered untold misery myself, the past
number of years, from a severe f >ru> of in
flammatory rheumatism, and - could find
nothing to cure cr relieve me. I had almost
drawn a conclusion that ah patent medicines
were more or less frauds until about one year
ago. I was induced by a friend now living :n
Tyler to try a preparation known as 3 B., or
botanic Blood Balm, and after a long per
suasion on his part, I finally made up my
mind to make one more effort to rid myself
of the terrible affliction; and now it
me the greatest pleasure of my lire to state to
ihe cit'iz ns of Smith county that I am entire
ly cured, with no traces ot the disease lelt,
r-,.1 all effected hv the magic hearing proper
ties of B. B. K., which 1 consider the grand
est, purest, and most-powerful blood reined,
known to man. I have been subject to in
flammatory attacks since ten years of age,
and up to the present time have hau four.
The last spell came on me in November, 18ho,
over a year ago, at which ime I was eonuned
to my bed for eight weeks, passing the nights
in misery, with no sleep except when produc
ed bv narcotics and various opiates, ine
week previous to using B- B. 13. up to to at
time I had only eaten six meals and could
scarcely sit up without support; bu tafter-us
ing three botrffs I was able to relish n,\
meals and to walk up town, and after six bot
tles had been used, thank heaven, I was en
tirely cured, and not the slightest pam. felt
since that time. When I returned to business
in February my weight was 145 pounds, but
•rradually increased until my regular weight
was a°ain attained, 210 pounds. The noticea-
ble fact in what I have so cheerfully stated is,
that this unparalleled and remarkable dis-
covery B. B. B. cured me in mid-winter, at
the very time my sufferings and misery were
the greatest. I take it on myself as a practi
cal druggist to heartily, cheerfully, as well as
conscientiously, recommend this glorious
blood remedy to all sufferers from rheuma
tism or blood troubles, and not only myself,
but the firm of McKay & Adams, who handle
it will cheertully indorse its superior merits.

IT REMOVED THE PIMPLES.
Round Mountain, Tex., March 29, 1887.
A lady friend of mine has for several years
been troubled with bumps and i irnpies on her
faceaaiKheuk, for which sin- c.- .-d vhri-v.w
cosmetics in order to remove thefE and beau
tify and improve her complexion.; bin these
local applications were ouly temporary and
left iier skin in a worse condition.
I recommended an internal application—
known as Botanic Blood Balm—which I ha ve
bee&ustng'and selling about two years; she
used three bottles and nearly all pimples
have disappeared, her skin is soft and smooth
and her general health much improved, feiie
expresses herself as well s:-t?--tlr-d and can
reccinmehd it to ail who are thus aff. cied.

SUFFERED FROM PILES,
Knoxville, Tenx., July 2, 1887.
I have had catarrh of the head for nearly
six years." I went to a noted doctor and he
treated me for it, bu‘ could not cure me, he
said. I was over fife; years of age and I gave

not have lived without a change. I sent and
got a bottle of your medicine, used it, and
felt better. Then I got four more, and thank
God! it cured me. Use this any way you
may. wish for the good of sufferers.
