The celebration of n marriage nt thoCho- nango county Jail nt Norwich , New York , whcrotholrldcgroom Is serving time for a misdemeanor , is nn event of uncommon nnd romantic Interest. Clarence r Iulford. the groom , Is twenty-two years old , and formerly worked nt his trade as blucksmlth in the Brio railroad com pany's ' shops at Susquehannn. While there ho courted nnd bccatno encaged to Ella , Ryder , a pretty girl of seventeen , who was living with her parents at Ualubridgo. About six monthsnpo Mulfordwont to ItortrlRhtund set up a shop of his own , It was understood that ho nnd Kiln were to bo married as soon aa ho got fairly established In business nnd saw Ins way clear toward supporting n wife. Ono unlucky day ho took a ride over to Ox- Jord where he fell Into company with some persons of questionable repute. Next day ho was nrrcstcd nnd brought before a magis trate on n chargoof petit lurceny. Ho stoutly asserted his Innocence ana declared that ho was smfcilng unjust suspicion on ac count of some other cersoii's misdeeds. But the justice pronounced him guilty and sen tenced him to thirty days' ' Imprisonment In the county jail. The pretty sweothnart thoroughly believed in Mulford's protesta tions of limoconco , and in order to shuwlior sympathy nnd love ate Insisted upon marry ing him forthwith. She wouldn't ' wait for the thirty days to expire , but would marry him In jail. Her parents assented , nmnic- cordlng1 she and her mother went to Norwich nnd called upon Sheriff A. S. Klnnoy , to whom the mother stated the purpose of the visit , The kindhearted sheriff at once consented to forward trie romance. Ho opened his par lors for tno wedding ceremony and sent for Justice Nash to officiate. The blacksmith was brought in from Jail to play his part in the drama. The county nnd town officials heard of what was going on nnd flocked In and formed a fine array of witnesses. The bride was neatly nncl becomingly dressed. Justice Nnsli pcrfonntd his function grace fully , and was envied by all the other men present when ho claimed the prerogative of kissing the brido. The ceremony over , the Broom -went back to the jail and the bride went homo with her mother to await the time when her husband would bo freo. Tim Ijiuv ol'Co ii. | uc I ittrnctlon. . Hermann Fol , ono of the most eminent of living cinbryoloslsts , while staying at Nlco thoMeccaof honeymooning had his atten tion attracted to the resemblances between young married couples , says the Review of ilovlews. The popular notion that married pcoplo "end by resembling each other" was shared by i'ol , but his trained vision detected among crowds of younir married ? ! couwles characteristics that led him to sup pose a contrary proposition to bo nearer the truth they begin by resembling each other , To put the matter to scientific test ho on- Kneed in n scries of observations nnd re searches on the photographs of young and old married couples , the results of which ho publishes In the Hovuo Sciontlllnuo.

After warning against hasty generalization from results so comparatively meagre , Fol In- vltcs other scientists to follow up the subject , nnd verify or modify the folloxving tentative conclusions ho draws : 1. In Iho immense majority of marriages of "Inclination" the coiitractluec parties are at tracted by similarities and not by dissimilari ties. " ! ! . The resemblances between ngod married couples Is not a fact acquired by conjugal life. VTIicro Virtue Iwn't a Howard. Old Mr. Tank of Now Vork , ono of the leading members of an up town club , tells 10a good store on himself. This venerable sin ner makes no effort to conceal the &nd fact that ho is always Intoalcnted bv 4 o'clock in tbo afternoon. At that hour ho goes homo , dines early and is carefully put to bed by his loving spouse. His wife has become so used to his duily routine that her conservative lao ture would bo shocked by any radical change Ip the programme. Not long ago Mrs. Tank decided to plvo an afternoon card party to about thirty friends of the gentler sex. She was haunted bv the fear that her bibulous lord and master would return at an inopportune moment In his usual exaggerated condition. So she delivered herself - self thus on the morning of the function : rd "Now.

The long cherished plan of Collis P. HuntIngton - Ington for solving the railroad problem by combining all roads under one management , and doing away forever with the clement of competition iu railroad business , will bo urged at the mooting of the Southern Pacific In San Francisco on the 8th inst , , and an effort made to consolidate all of the Pacific const railways under one ownership. At that meeting Vice President Stubbs , who has been the president's chief lljutcnnnt In all the moves made by the Southern Pucillc company , will makft his report. In that ronort ho will rohcarso the clrcum stances leading up to the formation of the Western TrafHc association , or the presi dent's agreement , as Itlssometimes called. Then the report will offer the joint owner ship olali to the directors of the Southern Pucillc as the best practical solution of the problem of competition. The report will rec ommend it as a practical scheme , reasoning from the point that as individual railroad lines have been connected , bought up and combined under joint ownership as systems , so , by a step further , systems can bo joined uuder ono manaKomont. The Southern PaoiHc will probably arrive at a conclusion at that mooting as to what part it may pl'iy in any joint ownership plan that may be forwarded when the fall of tlio Western Trafllc association comes. Joint ownership was offered at the mooting of rail- wayjnusidents in Now York , but.lt was too big u thing and tha'Western ' Truffle associa tion was organized as a temporary arrange ment. The agreement has never been satisfactory from tno day of Its inception , and already the roads In the association vro wautlng to pot out. The Alton is not In it , the Kansas City , Memphis & Birmingham Is not In It , and the Texas lines are 'outside the fold. ActIng - Ing Independently without obligation to the lines In the Western TralHc association , tnoso outside properties have a decided advantage , ana the lines that are tied up In the agree ment are dlssatlstlod with the condition of affairs. The Western Trafllo association will have a short life and some other scheme must bo devised to control the great tl-afilc of the west. A combination of Interests injoint ownor- sulp is'tho best plan that the ablest railroad financiers can devlso and they are looking to that end now , Difllcultles without number are In the way of joint ownership. Some of the state laws forbid it. In the case of the Atchlson , stock holders , largo and small , that extend from San Francisco to Now England , have to bo consulted nnd won over to the proposition. But these are the smallest of- the difllcultles. Thoroaroa thousand conditions peculiar to each transcontinental system , which must bo altered before a union can bo effected. Nevertheless Uould and Huntlngton are bold enough to attompttho work and are now giving tho" best of their attention to it. C. P. Huntlngton has loft New York and is now on his way to San Francisco. Tills is a True Story , President Egan of .the Chicago , St. Paul & Kansas City while m Kansas City last week taught his black servant a lesson that ho will probably not soon forgot. Mr. Egan had instructed the darkey Henry to keep close watch over his car and to never leave it alone. Henry promised to-bo faithful to his trust and the president nnd his party accord ingly loft the car in the Wood street yards and went to the Coates house. After a few hours Henry felt a longing for a better ac quaintance with seine of the stylish looking Wyandotte colored girls , nnd concluding within his own confident mind that every thing would bo all right , ho locked the car and wont awny. Half an hour later Mr. Egan came down to thn yards to look for some papers ho had left In his desk , Ho was surprised to find the door locked and the car perfectly dark , Concluding that his dusky servant had re tired , Mr. Egam thought that ho would not disturb him , and producing his keyho , opened the door himself nnd wont in. Ho walked through the car and looked Into Henry's ' room , but no servant was there , Mr. Egan saw that the black man hod nol been as faithful as he thought ho would oo , and ho began taking-things from their places , Ho took every article of food from the cup board and strewed ) them over the floor. He upset the furnltaro and turned over the berths. In shortydio made the interior of hU car almost unrecognizable. Then ho wen * back to his hotel. The next mornlmjf when Mr. Egan and party came to thoiear ready to leave thr city , Henry was wntt with perspiration. I had taken hard woric for him to got the en : in presentable shape * In time for its occu pants. "Look hero , Henry , " said Mr , Eiran to th guilty looking dackey , "I see in the morning papers that several j private cars have been robbed hero lately. J hope our's Is all richt.

Youwill have clear glass instead of misty ; fine instead of rough ; right shape instead of wrong ; and uniform , one the same as another.
