St. Louis, Mo., July 13.—This city is now discussing the most sen sational elopement case it has known in years. The parties are John W. Norton, the popular actor, his wife and Henry W. Moore, edi tor of the Post-Dispatch. For sev eral months past Norton suspected an intimacy between bis wife and Moore. Last Thursday evening he met them walking together. Norton had just recovered from a spell of sickness and was very weak, but he , made an attack on Moore and pro- j bably would have killed him but for the intervention of other parties. Norton was taken home exhausted. Moore and Mrs. Norton went away together. The next morning they fled from St. Louis, presumably for Australia. Mrs. Moore, who was absent from the city with her chil dren, is heart-broken at her hus band’s cruel desertion, while Nor ton is prostrated in his ruined home. Moore, with his guilty paramour, was arrested in Topeka and taken back to St. Louis, to qnswer a more serious charge than the abduction of Norton’s wife. He is accusod of stealing $20,000 in money and sev eral tnousand dollars worth of dia monds from Norton previous to his flight and the proof is said to be conclusive. Moore was one of the brightest newspaper men in the west, but has long been considered an unscrupu lous, cold-blooded fellow. Few men have more friends than genial John Norton. Mrs. Norton is a hand some woman and has always borne a good reputation until her mad in fatuation witli Moore. duck creek items. Health very good; peace and prosperity prevails; the weather is " flue for finishing up crops, which look promising, and. arc In good fix. John Vtincc says he has got the 9 best cotton, but then lie has not Il been around to see what others j, have got; however, John’s cotton is ii ® ne- W. O. Alexander and his nelgli (i bore want a depot and side track and President Williamson says they 2 can have it—the price is all that is ! in the way. A man that lives right - on the railroad does not like to go five miles to a station, but a man n that lives five miles from the road don’t mind it. " The C. R. & C. is still in bad con i' dition; thev have had several run 0 , * u offs, but they are making the road 0 better as fast as possible. Rambler will not be heard from at Duck Creek any more. He has occasionally written to the News ever since it began, and has tried to avoid saying harm of any one, ex cept “Minnow,” and that was not intended at the start. We thought a little hard when the News gave our name; however, wc knew the News was run by clever men and that they thought they were doing right. Our best words and wishes are for the News. We had intended to move to Summerville this week, but failed to make the change for the present. Hope some one will write from ; Duck Creek. Rambler. | We appreciate “Rambler’s” good wishes. In regard to the private matter: O. K. to date. Will con sider you in for it from now on.— FROM VALLEY ST ORD. ’ While there has been much rain all around this place, our immedi ate vicinity is almost as dry as a chicken bone after it has passed through a preacher’s dental anato my. The farmers here are all very busy just now laying by their crops', hauling up their grain, and thresh ing. The wheat crop here is poor. Oats fair ; corn and cotton look well. The same may be said of grass in some fields about. James Hawkins & Co. started, out with their thresh er last week. W. J. Brannon who has been at tending school at Summerville, is now teaching at the Hanson school in Dry Valley. With the exception . of a few chronic cases of rheuma tism, neuralgia, etc., the people ; here are enjoying a tolerable degree i iaf m alth ; and the doctors to the 1 delight of our people arc idle. .. ■ There are many complaints of ■ worms and bugs sucking garden i plants. The little creatures have bi ci l trying their suction powers on o :r ‘bacco plants tiil they look like i sifter bottoms. i : - Emma Lumpkin who has. '■ attending school in the Cove .is now rtlruue:, and also Miss Alice | Benefield who has been attending the Walnut Grove High School is now at home. We attended preach ing at New Hope Sunday, heard a good sermon by Rev. Mr. Webb; and also some good singing in the evening, Mr. Furgerson, leader. Your Teloga correspondent, “Thomas,” says: “Seems like John nie Brown is down on singings.” I think you are a little mistaken, “Thomas ;” it is not the singing I oppose—it is the evil growing out of singings. I don’t condemn all-day Sunday singings or any thing else that is productive of good. 1 believe we ought to have more of them than we do and better ones. During service at New Hope ’ Sunday we noticed one young man asleep; guess he had been sitting jup with his best girl. Let’s all try to sleep enough before going to church. Jasper Brannon is congratulating himself on his fidelity to the script ural injunction, “Be fruitful, mul tiply and replenish the earth.” He says gi’l, girl! before you get in thirty' yards of him. Mr. Walter Greenwood who has been at work at Chattanooga for some time visited relatives and ■ friends here last week. Mrs. Toni Story who lias been in rather bad health for some time speaks of go ing out on tiie mountain soon. “Johnnie Brown” has been loaf ing some during the past fortnight and has seen tl good deal, but sup pose it not worth mentioning. We saw some good crops, both corn and ( cotton; and in addition to this wc , saw the railroad, and several sup posed to candidates. I reckon the . field will be full of them shortly. Most, of tile electioneering, so far, is not done openly but in a round about way as a more mutual admi ration kind of look, and “Jiowpy, hywdy, bow do you do ; how is your I wife and how are you,” and so on. s Mrs. Hammeiytbe woman preach ’ er, preached at the Hanson school • house last Sunday; and I learn she will preach there again the first t Sunday in next month. s I believe the Alliance men will " take this country. The Alliance here has met twice since its organ - ization, and I learn that it will I' meet again next Friday at 2 o’clock V p. m. If lam corrceily informed s it numbers nr.v 22 with several ap '■ plications for membership. Some '■ as good men as this country affords !l have joined the order and they say ■I it is certainly a good institution for the farmer: I have written an • article on tile subject of Alliances II which I have in manuscript and d nearly ready for publication and as soon as it is ready I will submit it a for consideration. s Where art thou, Jimmie? Are you s asleep? Wake up; write next week. ° Don't ]<■(. your menial faculties lie • dorment so long when yOu might use t them to your own interest and to t the interest of many others, includ e ing Johnnie Bnowx. Married and Divorced. ■(“hattanooos* July 10.—Quite a ; sensation was created today by the filing of a petition for a divorce by > Fannie Warricks, wdio asked a legal I separation from her husliand, Chas. ■ Warricks. Six months ago a simi- ■ lar petition was filed by the plain tiff, but it was subsequently’ witb- ' drawn, the husband paying costs. ■ Two months later another applica- ■ tion was made for 'divorce, which was granted. Eight weeks ago the divorced couple were again married, and were thought to be living hap pily together until when a third bill i was filed in the circuit court. Some rich developments are expected, as , both parties have donned war paint. His Last Free Ride. Adairsville, July 13.—A negro tramp got on the train. No. 20. Cin cinnati express, at Resacca, but the; conductor put him off immediately. When the express reached Calhoun this morning at 3 :30 this negro was seen on board and when he attemp ted to jump off he fell and struck his head on the crosstie, crushing his skull in, and causing death im mediately’. His body was left at Calhoun, where it will be buried. The Dudes Know it. Or if they don't t hey should know that Ranguin Root Liniment cured I Big Head in mules for W. K. Hunt, of Adairsville, Ky.

Louisville, Ky., July 12.—The case of Judge A. M. Pulliam, who on Friday’ killed Janies Miller, a wealthy farmer at Hardinsburg, Ky., camo up before the county’ magis trate this morning at this place. Judge Pulliam waived an examina tion and went to jail without bail. It has been discovered since the kill ing that when Pulliam and Miiler went together into Pulliam’s office, Pulliam submitted to Miller for signature a statement that Miller had been criminally’ intimate with Mrs. Pulliam, aud that in consider ation of that fact he would pay’ Pulliam $5,000. The statement was in ink, in Pulliam’s writing. Below, in pencil, and leaving a space for the signature, were the words in the same handwriting: “I will give you five minutes to consider. You may sign or die.” This paper was found under Mi - ler’s spectacles, on Pulliam’s table, just after the shooting. Pulliain’s reputation is bad. He became ac quainted with Miss Miller, a rela tive of the murdered man, some years ago, and she became infatua ted with him. She married him in spite of her father's objections. Twice they have been separated on account of Pulliam’s alleged infidel ity. Pulliam owes his election as county judge to a reaction against the badly enforced local option law. After Three Years. W. F. Walton, of Springfield, Tenn; says: “J have been suH’ming with Neuralgia in uiyiace and head off and on for three y’ears. 1 pur chased a box of Dr. Tanner’s Infal lible Neuralgia Cure and took eight , of the pills.

Everybody knows that for v<- ac ity your Uncle Jim Hughey’ is an i equal match for your Uncle George i W., the man of hatchet fame, and! on last Sunday morning when 'he former came down and related ' hat on Saturday’ night, while he was on the back veranda washing his p< lai appendages, a large panther came bounding down the mountain side and crouched as if for a spring, just in front of him, and when he rai-ed his chair to strike the animat it' went flying back up the hill, leap-1 ing over the top of the corn and 1 everything else in its way, evry-i body believed him, and talk of form ing a hunting party to capture the monster was frequently indulged in, but it was Sunday’, and the hunt! was given up.—Calhoun Times. , Richard Welch, of Hampton, Washington county, a married m m,; became infatuated with a fair; ■Miarmer in the neighborhood. lie > didn’t pack up his belongings sn •‘skip” with the charmer undercov er of darkness, but went into the business in a business like way. He offered to give his wife all his prop erty if she would give him .$250 and release all claims upon him as her husband. After considering the proposition Mrs. Welch took a sensible view of the affair and con sented to let her worthless partner go. The bargain was accordingly closed, and Welch and his inamora ta have hied themselves to parts unknown. Angry customer (to Mr. Isaac stein) —Dutchy, when 1 bought this suit two months ago you said it wouldn't fade. Look at the color now! Mr. Isaacstcin —My front, dat vas changed pcautifully.

There have been twenty-six sui cides from the Clifton bride in England in the twenty-four years since it was built.
