Pagac’s Wile Gears from HS:a ter ttle P‘i X:/ ?. h 25 Y ;srs. Charleston, S. C., Aug. 25.— Many old-time Augusta politi¬ cians may remember Samuel Pague. Pague was prominent in Augusta campaigns prior to 1870. He was a machinist by trade, and being a man of some ability and many personal attractions he was a power at the polls. But in the campaign of the year mentioned when every man went with his hand upon his pistol, when tnere was no disfranchising uie negro vote save with a pistol, Pague be¬ came involved in difficulties which finally resulted in his disappeai ance. It has been over twenty- five years since all trace or record was lost of Pague, and it was not until a few days ago that his faithful wife, who formerly lived in this city, and who now lives in Spartanburg, S. C., received a let¬ ter from him. As common repute had it here there was a heated municipal campaign in Augusta in 187G; Pague was one of the principal workers for the democratic candi- date. At one of the polls at which he was stationed he challenged a negro vote, shots were exchanged between himself and a crowd of negroes, two of the latter of whom were killed, and Pague fled for safety. He escaped into South Carolina, where he remained fora few days. One night while asleep in a hay loft the barn in which lie had sought refuge was surrounded by negro ccnstables. Pague open¬ ed fire with a Winchester rifle, killed one more man, and once more made his escape. Realizing ARLINGTON, GA., THURSDAY. AUGUST 29. I£0I. : ;::ri bo boa See. our, n’*‘ loi fcl .*o. Me am some great values in drem .shoes. that he could not return to gusta, and that this state, then totally under negro domination, was no longer a refuge for him, he went west, not even stopping long enough to bid adieu to his wife and small child. It is a remark¬ able circumstance that in all these years Pague did not acquaint his wife with his whereabouts. She came here with her baby and suc¬ ceeded in making a livelihood for herself and it, remaining true all J C j ie v ,Tiile to her missing husband. Years passed and the baby boy g rew | n ^ 0 manhood and became a ma chinist. Some time ago he re¬ ceived lucrative employment in the Morgan Iron Works at Spar¬ tanburg, where he went to live with his mother, now an old wo¬ man. During the present week a letter was received at Spartan¬ burg from a little -western town, the name of which need not be mentioned here, to Mrs. Pague. It came from her long-lost hus¬ band. It announced he was still alive and that he had never for- gotten her or the child, and he re¬ quested that either she would join him in his far-away western home or that he might come to South Carolina to rejoin her. These are the meager details of a romance rea q w h.ich. began with a tragedy long ago. For Rale at a Bargain.

C., Aug. £0—Hen¬ ry Morrison Flagler, man of many millionr, firm of stop at 72, who ten days ago divorced his insane wife, married near here Saturday Mies Mary Lily Kenan, a daugh¬ ter of North Carolina, who counts her years by £0. Before the venerable Standard 0:1 magnate and so-called king of Florida led his bride to the altar he placed m her hands a check for $1,000,000 and securities valued at $8,000,000. To the father, mother and sister of his wife-to- be he gave each a check for $50,- 000 to signalize the joy that had come to him in the evening of his life. The honeymoon will be spent on Mr. Flagler’s estate, near Larch mon-on-the-Sound, whose big mansion has been closed since its mistress .was removed from it three years ago, a hopeless luna¬ tic. From the long-darkened home, soon to be gay in honor of its new and happier mistress, it is not a far cry to where the pre¬ decessor of the bride of Saturday lives in luxury the meaningless life of one whose mind has fled. The marriage ceremony, cele¬ brated in the fine colonial man¬ sion of the family of the bride in Dulpin county, eight miles by highway from this little town, was the climax of an unprecented breaking of the marriage contract outside of royalty. Mr. Flagler had long been devoted to Miss Kenan, but he could not marry her because of his insane wife. TO FLORIDA FOR A DIVORCE. He moved to Florida, where he millions and made himself power greater than the people of the state combined. He caused the legislature to pass a bill mak¬ ing insanity of four years’ contin¬ duration grounds for divorce. people of Florida resented and fought it, but without The legislators were com¬ plaisant, and the bill became a The courts soon set the oil mag¬ free; a clergyman, one of the prominent in the south, him again last Satur¬ As the marriage party left the the old family servants around the bride, some them weeping.
