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.

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. The
following table gives his statistical con-
.elusions :

The vividly lai-go porcentngo of physical
similarities Dotwccn young married couples
is emphasized by the calculation that In mar
riages njado nt random by chance thonum-
bcr of resemblances would not amount to
mom than two la n hundred. Among the
non-resemblances were included some very
curious case * , where man nnd wife , though
quite dissimilar in every other respect , yo ,
exhibited In Common "curtain traits const.lt
tutlnp nn utrllness more or less ridiculous.-
Pol Infers from this an argument in favor of
the Idea that candidates for marriage do not
fear the particular form of ugliness to which
their mirror accustoms them.
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. William , Iain going to give a card
party this afternoon , Whoa you have ac ,
complished your usual 'jag' bo kind enough
to go to a botcl and go to bed. 1 don't want
to bo disgraced before my friends. " atus
Tank , who li a truly good man out of his
cups , Iclt the house in a heavenly frame usof
mind. Ho had resolved to lay aside for the
diy the garment of habit and roach homo In
the nakedness ot sobriety. The agony ho
suffered need not bo dwelt upon. Sulllco It
to BO.V that ho drank nothing but -water dur
ing the day , and set out for uomo at 4 o'clock
as frco from alcoholic influence as ho had
been at breakfast.
ills \\lfo heard him put his latch toy into
the lock. She rushed from the crowded itor
par
lor in dismay , Seizing her husband by the
arm she urged him toward the btalrs ,
"I want logo in to see the ladles , " said
Tank. "I haven't drunk anything today. "
"Nonsense , " answered his wife ; "you
'
can't fool mo , "
Sho.flnallygot him upstairs and by MO

to sleep , but In his dreams ho stjll fult that
virtue Is not nhvajs Its own roivard.

Combining All Itaflroads to Do A.\vny
with Cuniiictition.
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 -

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. "
"Indeed it am , sab. , " said the negro. "Yes
salij ov'ything was , Jcs' this nrnwnln' as I lei
It bofo1 poln1 to sleep lus1 night. "
"You didn't leave the carl'1
O , no , sahwas the unflinching ro
sponso.
Mr. Egan did not undeceive the darkey , as
ho thinks the lesson a much boiler ono as 1'
stands.
