???WHY THREE YOUNG MEN COURTED
A DESPERATE FORTUNE.
???
The Tale of the Three Tonne Train Robber* of Arkan-
???ai. as Told by Themseleea???They Were In Lo*e
and Poor; They Sought to Attain Wealth
and Long Tears of Wedded Bliss.
Little Rock, October 12.???The trio of train rob-
* )Cr *> * Dclnuejr and Monroe, were placed in the
penitentiary lust evening and have been the center
attraction ever since. They ure in good spirits
nnd take their sentence coolly. The toilet, Iielu-
ne>. has a slight black mustache, the others none
nt nil. Monroe, who gives his age between 16 and
IT years, appears even younger. All of them ap-
pear like the average country boy. Monroe
-appeared in his bare feet, wore dark pants and a
Mriped shirt. Delaney had dnrk pants staffed in
Ills loot tops' And a striped shirt. Cox wore shoes
mid white shirt nnd light pants. Cox and Monroe
???arc printers, having worked in n printing office at
ihin Augustine, Texas, prior to the robbery.
In an interview Delaney said in substance: We
???arc all poor boys and live at Han Augustine. We
have good relatives there, and hope they w 111 never
hear of <mr disgr.e e. All. of 11a were In love, and
the girls loved ns. We liud no money und did not
see liow we could support them if we married. We
???were determined to get married, and so laid our
plans to get money. We rend about the James boys
iu the pii]M'rs and l??K??ks: saw how easy it was to rob
A train. We left Inane three weeks ago yesterday,
???coming direct to Arkansas. Afterrobbing thetmin
we did not think we would he pursued. We
were going hack home with our money and there
marry our girls und settle down. We Innl no accom
plices, nnd we planned the whole thing ourselves.
We only got eight or nine thousand dollars in cash
Jrom the express com|??ny, the balance being in
tiunk cheeks. Monroe nnd 1 kept the bulk of this,
Jind all of it, with the exception of a few dollars,
was stolen by the men who captured us, and I hoj>e
they will be sent to keep us company. I am sorry
we failed to get away, hut we acted like a panel of
ftails after we got the money, und so we have no one
to ldamc but ourselves.

Jaixes at the
Approaching Marriage of a Vanderbilt anil of u ltd-
mont und n Morgan???Richest People In New York.
New York, October 12???Among the marriages in
the fashionable world the coining season none will
???excite more in to nut than that of Miss Vanderbilt,
the youngest daughter of the railroad king, with
Dr Seward Webb, the son of James Watson Webb,
the octogenarian Journalist. Mias Vanderbilt is
now the only unmarried child of Wm 11 Vundcr-
tiilt. She is twenty years old, a slim and graceful
Jminelte, resembling her mother in appearance.
???She has an Interesting nnd intelligent, though not
???a beautiful face, and is very well known by sight to
most everybody in New York who goes to the opera,
.on amusement of which she, as well ns her father,
is very fond. During the past three years she and
have been among the very
occupying the conspicuous
academy of music who have not at
tracted attention by the splendor of their toilet-'.
Airs Vanderbilt is a lady of quiet tastes, and in such
public places ns the opera she and her unmarried
slaughters have never been noteworthy for gorgeous
nltlre. Miss Vanderbilt made her debut in society
two w inters ago at the Patriarchs??? ball, where it is
fashionable for all the young indies of New York???s
upper temloni to make their social entree. Some
lime later she went lo Enrols' with her parents, and
ill Paris she unwittingly captured the heart of Lord
Dulfield, who offered himself in marriage. His pro
posal was declined. She lias been engaged for
-about a year to young Dr Webb, who is some six
years her senior. Mr \ underbill's wedding pres-
<11 ts to each of his three daughters already mar
ried were something muguilieent, as would
uutuntlly be expeeted; and it is said
that Ills gifts t,, his youngest daughter will include
the house o i f ifth avenue in which he at present
lives, lie will move Into the palace now nearly
???completed for him within a few months. Dr. Webb
is in comfortable circumstances-, but lie is by no
liicuns wealthy according to the New York defini
tion of the word. Some three years ago he thought
???of abandoning medicine and entering the journa
listic ranks, iu which his father, the proprietor of
the t'ourier and Enquirer, which preceded the
World news|??jier of to-day, won u reputation and
???a competency. lie gave up the idea, however, ail'd
is doing well in his profession, if he has not yet
-achieved -o brilliant a success as lie has met with
in liis matrimonial enterprise. The wedding /Will
???occur late in the fall.
Another event which is exciting an equal degree
???of interest in society is the tiros|ieetive marriage of
August ltelmont, Jr. to Miss llessie Morgan, the
???charming daugher of Mr Edward Morgan. Both
parties are immensely wealthy. Young August is
the s|Hirting member of his father's family. The
4wo brothers. Ferry nnd August are about ns dis
similar in everything as they can possibly be. Perry
-aspires to be a constitutional lawyer, and he has
amide n hit in two or three arguments at the bar
w hich proved 1.1m to be a young man of studious
habits and excellent ability. He is a (honorratio
member of the state senate. He and W \\ Astor
.arc representing at the state capitol
the wealth and aristocracy of the me
tropolis. and both young men have thus far ae-
-quttlcd themselves with great credit. Perry is a
bachelor, and they say that there are no indications
that he (hiiiksof exchanging his bachelor freedom
for wedded life. He is tall, dignified and rather re
???served, and very much resembles his mother. Au
gust, on the other hand, Is short and stout, like his
???father. He is the pololst, the yachtist, and the hun
ter of the llelmonl family. His father awhile ago
took him into liis bank us one of the partners, it is
said he contemplates sending August, after hi:
marriage, to Frankfort, Germany, to jierma
neatly represent the timi in that city. The young
???couple are reported to be very much pleased at
this prospect, as they think they would like to re
-side In Europe. Miss Morgan made her social debut
iu New York at the patriarch's ball last winter, she
a great favorite, and is one of the handsomest
-anil most vivacious young ladies in New York's
.society. Her father is the son of the late Charles
Morgan, of the New Orleans and Texas steamship
dine, w ho died some years ago, leaving an estate
worth several millions. The wedding will be cele
tinned eitrly in the winter.
THE NEW YORK FIRE.
a Terrible Destruction of Articles of Knre Ynlnc.
New York. October 12.???The tire which broke out
t'u the ear-stables of the Fourth avenue line was the
most destructive that has occurred here for two
.years. It destroyed the stables which cover almost
???lie whole block bounded bv Fourth and Lexington
???atvenuesand Thirty-second and Thirty-third streets,
Morrell's storage warehouse. Fourth avenue and
Thirty-second street, also caught fire, und the build
ing on Thirty-second street was destroyed. The to
tal hiss 1*estimated at $2,000,000. The stables were
-of brick and two stories high, w ith an asphalt roof.
They were built about fifteen yearsagi???. The ground
belongs to Mr William II Yauderbilt. There were
.Mails for twelve hundred horses, und space for the
company's ears and a large quantity of hay and
feed. There w ere three hundred horses out on the
road w hen the tire broke out, and about seven hun-
-dred in the stables. Between four ami five hundred
were rescued, and stabled iu Gilmore's garden and
in the tunnel. It was estimated that between two
.hundred and three hundred horses had been
burned. It vras said to-night that the loss on the
stables and their contents wo,uld Ik- fully s-ViO.OUO.
Everything Is well covered by iusuiuncc. The line
belongs to the Harlem railroad company, which is
???owned chiefly by Vanderbilt. Morrell's warehouse
-contained furniture, clothing, laces, books, paint
ings and works of art belonging to people who are
uwuv for the summer or in Eurojic. The loss Is es
timated at 81,500.000. Willirflu H Vanderbilt lmd
furniture stored there, andfsome works of art, in-
M-luding a picture recently purchased in Europe at
<-o>: of $55,000. George Yerteringh. who is con
lieeted w ith the Panama canal selitme. had 80,000
worth ol furniture, pictures, etc. in the warehouse
Abram 8 Hewitt had 810,000 worth of furniture
Dion Houcionull had his furniture and library, val
tied at $25,000, iu the warehouse. He also had
stored in it his manuscript plays and other valuable
-documents. Mr Boueicault had given directions -
have the property insured, but the agent went
Europe and neglected to pay the premium. Miss
Harriet Irving, a sister of Washington Irving, had
fainilv pictures and works of art valued at *20,000
iu the building. William Henry Smith lost SlO.tWO
???worth oi furniture. Isaac Bell. Jr. is also a loser to
the extent of $5,000 on dresses, laces, and other
prononv, which were put iu storage at noon.
John II Morrell, owner of the storehouse,
found bv a Tribune reporter leaning ugaiust the
.steps of the I???ark avenue hotel.
lie is a short, thick man with a heavy moustache,
a pleasant face and a soft voice. He was intensely
excited as he gazed at the roaring flames devouring
his property, and when approached upon the sub
ject exelnitned: ???It is all going, 1 can say nothing
.about it.??? , , .. , ??? .
Presently he was calmer, and gave the following
information in disjointed sentences;
???1 begun my business, which was storing rich fur
niture. jewelry, plate, and valuables of all kinds,
by building what was the best and most complete
warehouse that could be fouiM in this country, if
not in the world. It cost a very large sum of money,
and was so well built that I always insured my cus
tomers against robticry. I did not, however, insure
them against loss by fire, because I felt that if ever
the building was burnt It would lie under circum
stances similar to to-night. It was proof against
any ordinary fire. So to-nigbt I may say that, after
years of earnest labor, what 1 had endeavored to
make the safest and best building in the world for
storing the best class of goods is swept away.???
In s|>vaking of the work of the firemen he said: ???I
do not think that with the high wind and terrible
hea. across the street, double the number of men
nnd engines could have saved the building. In
fact -I think the department did all it could under
the circumstances.???
fiat is yourchief loss'."???
???'My greatest loss, after the ruin of my business,
is. of course, the building. It occupied fifteen lull
city lots, covering nearly an acre of ground, having
a frontage of loo feet on Fourth avenue and 225
on Thirty-third street.???
"Did your own men do anything to save it?"
"Yes: I hud twenty-four men working for an hour,
hut they could do nothing.???
"i 'an you estimate your loss?"
"It is utterly impossible for me to do so. I ha
15.HU0 names on my liooks. among whom are th
richest and best families of this city and
state, as well us many Europea s
Vanderbilt loses a famous painting which he ha
just brought from Europe, which lie valued at $.5 -
uoo. 1 understand he paid so much for it. I don't
know what it was. Then. ex-Governor Hoffman
loses all his rich furniture. The llalpin family aie
also heavy losers. The wife of Congressman Eren-
Steii lmd *10,000 in wedding presents In the build
ing. But I cannot begin to tell you who my custoui-
rs were", because, as 1 slid, 1 bad over 1.5,000 on the
looks. The safe dupo-it vaults are in the middle of
the building. 1 hope something may lie saved out
of them, as they are built ot bri. k. stone and steel,
but 1 have saved nothing. J H Parsons, I remember,
had curiosities, brie u-bruc, and trinkets valued at
re thousand dollars.???
"Can you recollect anything ns to your insur
ance'.??????
Well, you can safely say that all the companies
are interested to a greater or less extent, although 1
have not a very heavy insurance, having reduced it
alMiut one-half a year ago, because the building was
considered so safe. The loss will be very great,
twice as much as the insurance.???
"Will one million dollars cover your loss, outside
insurance????
"Well, I don???t know, but I think it will.???
Saving the horses from the burning building was
troublesome, though it was the smallest part of the
labor connected with them, it wostai]iosslble for
the men engaged iu the work of freeing them to do
more than turn them into the open air. When all
that could he saved were without the walls and
safely herded in the tunnel and other places, the
men ill charge of them were confronted by the
problem of pro* filing shelter ami food. Home were
taken at once to neighboring stables, the Broadway,
Ninth, and Hixth avenue companies promptly offer
ing to take as many as could lie provided for in
their stables.
About 9:45 o'clock Mr. Vanderbilt came on and
WHAT I'D DO.
took a look at the singular spectacle which the _
den presented, hut did not remain long. Superin
tendent Bonney walked hither and thither over the
tloor, i.-Miing orders with an expression of great
concern on liis face. He lmd little time to talk, hut
answered the questions of the Tribune reporter
llUngly, and said: "I was at home when the fire
began* aud didn't know anything about it till I
reached the place, and then everything was lost,
hud ???.ill horses. I suppose about 7U0 of them
re in the stable when the fire began. I haven't
the slightest idea how many were burned. We had
t put in our winter supply of feed, and had on
; second floor li,000 bales of hay, 20,DUO bushels
oats, 1 |.<MM> bushels of eoru, and 300 bales of straw.
There were about fifty ears on the ground floor. A
good many of them were taken out, bin I don???t know
how many. They were worth something less than
8800 each. I haven't hud time lo think yet what we
hall do to-morrow about running ears. At present
am only looking for places In which to put these
horses. I should say the stable building was worth
8500,000. We built an L to it four years ago ul a cost
' 8150,000.???
THE BELLE OF THE WEST.
Woman Whose Bridal Fnn no t???nt Into Bits for
Itrjretcil Suitors.
From a Letter in the Cincinnati Commercial.
Home reminiscences of a very noted beauty and
lie were brought to mind by seeing her name
lately brought again into prominence by the sad
state???of one also noted for her loveliness. Miss Haliie
arnt-al. She of the olden times so far distanced all
her eompeers by her beauiy und wit that she was
known far and wide ns the "oelle of the west,??? the
.treat Western??? ami other names. Her form
was superb and her face classic and iu-
d faultless. In addition to these phys
ical endowments she had a great and ready wit and
vocal powers and culture of a high onler. The pop
ular songs of Bussell, "The Brave Old Oak," "The
vy Green,??? and many others-were jusi then in
ogue and the bruvuva style was much admired
uni she excelled in it. Miss Corneal was very nffu-
c when it so suited her or haughty when called
on to make distinction among the very many, who
sought her ncipuuiiitauce. On New Year???s day au as
piring you Oft shopkeeper presumed on his having
sold her some silks, to eall and elaim her attention
and was compelled to explain Ids position.
Another, a gentleman trom a neighboring town,
was more fortunate. He asked a friend to call with
him on Mis.; Clinical. The friend was only too
happy, thinking he would at last be prest nted to
her. When admitted, it was discovered to the dir
may of the friend that Mr 1) was also a strange,
to her. lie smiled at the success of his ruse and
xplained that he could not leave Cincin
nati without seeing its greatest ornament, and
ith more of that flattery of which he was mas!9r,
he made a el.arming visit, which was but the be
ginning of a long friendship. Hhe queened it all
through the west and south. In New Orleans, when
it was thecenter of fashion and g-iyety, she had a
brilliant season, and her beauty was so famed that
on one occasion as she entered a Itil room the mu-
lelan stopped the music to gaze. Hhe wittingiy re
plied to a sjieeeh she could but overbear as slie passed
with a nice* young man o:: either tide: "Here
comes the (.rent Westcin.??? "Yes, with two flats in
tow." Her beauty had all the advantage of all the
accessories that wealth and |Kisitioii can give. Her
fame mid name were so well known that her
brother thought to make use of them to escape ar
rest on the occasion of a midnight frolic in Lexing
ton, hut they were not potent enough to the iiolico-
nmn. for in answer to Mr Carneal???s saying, ???why, I
am Hullie Caracal's brother,??? he replied, "If you
were Haliie herself you would have to go.??? I was
told that ut her wedding (a brilliant atluir) her bri
dal fan was divided remorselessly among her dis
carded suitors as souvenirs. I did not see her in
the zenith of her fame; but years after, not recog
nizing her married name (Burke. I believe), was
struck by her classic face and inquired who she
was. A lady exclaimed: "Why. that is Hullie Car
acul!!'
"???.Vhat will ye do. love, when I am going
With white sails flowing.
The sens beyond;
What will ye do. love, though waves divide us.
And friends will chide us
For being fond?"
"Though waves divide us.
And friends may chide us.
In faith abiding f'll still be true:
I'll pray for you on the stormy oeeuu
With deep devotion.
That???s what I'll do I???
"What would ye do, love, if distant tidings
Your fond confidings
Hhould undermine:
And 1 abiding 'neath foreigu skies
Hhould think other eyes
Were bright as thine????
???Oh, name it not, love; though guilt aud shame
Were your name,
I'd still lie true;
But that heart of thine???should another share it,
I could not bear it???
That's what I'd do!???
???What would ye do, love, if home returning
In hopes high burning.
And wealth for you:
If my hark ilqit bounded on foreign foam???
Should be lost near home???
What would you do????
"Ho thou wert spared I'd bless the morrow
In want and sorrow.

tution is a paper of the same size aud similar iu

the quadruple size was an evideuce of enterprise
which would hardly be expected from a paper pub

lCnttlranaLe. Hold it Jitbllrr (Ivrrn Child.
From the Williamsport Sun anil Banner.
While my wife and I were busily engaged back oi-
our log cabin clearing the ground, our little 4-year
old girl had strayed from the house ihto the deep,
dark forest. We looked all that evening for her,
but could find no trace of her whereabouts. We
came back, but sleep was far from us. We sat and
speculated all night.
Tile next day several of the neighbors joined in
the search, but to no avail. We camped out that
night, und nt midnight were aroused by many mid
loud sounds of hissing aud rattling. We juiniied up
and followed in the direction from which the sounds
dime, and had not gone far when we all stopped
suddenly as if we had beeil rooted to the ground,
for before ns we beheld our little girl surrounded
by three dozen rattlesnakes, varying in size from
three inches to fifteen feet, the lurger ones standing
on their tails in a circle, with erect bodies and
necks carved down toward the head of the infant
ill the center.
We looked on in horror bn; but could do nothing
as the girl was in too dangerous a position. But
soon after, the snakes had, as we supposed, danced
their war dance nnd sung their war song, the larger
ones made each for the lowest branch on one of the
trees in u direct line with our cabin. Wrapping
one end of their bodies around the branch they
dropped the other end toward the ground.
in the meantime two large snakes had wrapped
one end of their bodies around the child, so that
one of their heads was on one side aud other
the opposite side. One of these
snakes then tied itself with the one hanging from
above: they then swung themselves, together with
the child, ull ihe other snake on the child could
catch the snake hanging on the adjoining tree,
when the former let go and the latter swung the
child to the next. During this novel proceeding
the other snakes kept up an incessant jubilee rattle
fill the child was landed inside of our cabin safe
and sound, when they once more repeated the
scene in the woods by dancing around her, utter
which they left.
A Fiction Dispelled.
Pittsburg Telegraph.
Papers all the way from New York to Han Fran
cisco have been for months referring to an esteemed
contemporary of Georgia which they call tire Daily
Drouth, evidently thinking it lately established anil
named in honor of the dry summer. This is Uie
nickname which a malicious wit on The Atlanta
Constitution gave to a well known Journal of Ma
con, during a quarrel in which they engaged on ac
count of rivalry. This fiction has been imposed on
such carefully edited papers as the solemn New
York Post especially, and is an illustration of the
ease with which the great public can be fooled.

She smiled on me! A glorious light
Flashed from her eyes so blue and bright-
The light of happiness and love;
Yet coyly, for the laslies wove
A veil to hide the flame from sight.
And she shrank back from me in fright,
# Afraid of love, seemed bent on flight:
Yet, coyly playing with her glove,
Hhe smiled oil me!

And from her fear I drank new jmight,
And for my cause I boldly strove
In moving words; and from above
Gazing on tier, felt with delight
