Bob Morehead, an old . antl-bellum negro, capsized yesterday afternoon on Fifth street as the result of drinking too much barley corn and all was oblivion to the old negro until he awoke in his cell in the police station this morning. Dob was charged with the costs, which he paid and went his way re joicing. The case of Chess Williams, charged with an assault on John Ous. was called, but was dismissed by the court. Mary Stafford, a colored woman, was arrested early this morning by Officer Sykes. while she was helping herself to coal at the Southern's chute near the passenger depot. The woman was re leased on her own recognizance for her appearance at the next term of crimi nal court. FRIGHTENED LADIES ON STREET Drunk Man From Concord Gets Into Trouble Here.

The following account of the mar riage of Mr. Claude W. Brown and Miss Lucille Taylor, of Como, Miss., Is from the Memphis Morning News' Como, Miss., correspondent: The marriage of Miss Lucille Meri wether Taylor and Claude Walter Brown, which was Bolemnized here this evening, was one of the most brilliant nuptial events In the history of the city. Owing to the wide popu larity of the bride the Interest of the society of the State was centered in the wedding. The marriage was solemnized with elaborate ceremony at the Methodist church, the nuptial rites being read promptly at 8:30 o'clock by the Rev. J. M. Cameron. Mrs. E. S. Taylor presided at th or gan, and following a program of ap propriate selections, the processional from "Lonhengrin" announced the ap proach of the bridal party. The bride was attended by, Miss Martha Shelby, Memphis, maid of honor; Miss Mar tha Dockery, Memphis, first brides maid; Miss Carrie Bourne, Memphis; Misn Ethel Hoffman, Chillicothe, Ohio; Miss Evelyn Caldwell, Mem phis; Miss Patte Taylor and Miss Agnes Taylor of Como. The groom's best man was D. E. Allen of Charlotte. N. C, and the prooniRmcn were Benjamin C. Eley, Jr., Baltimore; James C. Cothran, At lanta. Ga.; II. C. Duvall, Charlotte, N. C; Walter C. Johnson, Memphis, and James McGehee, Memphis. Serving a3 ushers were J. Anthony Shelton, of Covington, Tenn.; Henry L. Taylor, Memphis; Monro Painter and Travis H. Taylor, of Como. Little Miss Clara Mae Taylor and Mildred Sledge were flower girls. During the reading of the service "Violets" was played and the party left the church to the strains of Men delsohn's recessional. The brido wore an exquisite import ed gown of lace, fashioned over silk and chiffon. A tulle veil fastened with a harvest moon cf diamonds, the gift of the groom, fell to the hem of the train and she carried a shower of Bride roses and lilies oi the valley. Her attendants all wore elaborately fashioned gowns of white liberty silk and carried large showers of Brides maids roses. The tiny flower girls wore dainty frocks of white silk and carried baskets of pink carnations. The wedding party, with the magni ficent gowns and a wealth of flowers, formed a pagneant of beauty and gal lantry. A pretty musical feature of the wedding was the vocal number given by I. D. Wesson. He sang in splendid voice "All For You." The church was decorated In lavish fashion and carried out the idea of the Christmas season. The chancel was banked high with palms and be fore the altar weze erected three arches of holly. These were decorated with bows of tulle and studded with numerous electric lights. Hung in the central arch, underneath which the bride and groom stood, was a large star of incandescent lights. Following the service at the church a largo reception was tendered at the home of the bride's parents. The well arranged suites of this pretty house were generously decorated with holly, Ivy and cut flowers. In the drawing rooms were pink chrysanthemums, in the reception hall tall palms, and the dining room was in green and white. The table was arranged with bride roses and smilax and was wreathed in tulle. Saxby's orchestra from Memphis furnished a delightful pro gram during the receiving hours. Mrs .Taylor wore for the reception an elegant gown of black panne crepe with trimmings of real lace. Mr. and Mrs. Brown left for an ex tended trip to Florida and Cuba. Mrs. Brown wore a modish tailored suit of brown cloth. After February 1 they will be at home in Baltimore, where Mr. Brown has business interests. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Travis H.

The first sign of croup Is hoarseness. A day or two be fore the attack the child becomes hoarse. This Is soon followed by a pe culiar rough cough. Give Chamber lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even af ter the rough cough appears, and it will dispel all symptoms of croup. In this way all danger and anxiety may be avoided. This remedy is used by many thousands of mothers and has never been known to fail. It is, in fact, the only remedy that can always be depended upon and that is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by R. H. Jordan & Co. Cotton Jumps to 12.65.

" Mini Impaired and Nerves Shattered From Excessive Men tal Strain. Dr. Miles Nervine Gave Back My Health. It i not always severe manual labor thai breaks down the health. Mental strain, worry, anxiety, the cares of business or the home, have an equally strong tendency towards undermining the nervous system, upon whose vitality the health of the body depends. When you find yourself unduly fretful, anxious, easily excitable; when your sleep is troubled and you can ge no rest; if you have frequent headache, are losing your appetite and are getting thin, you should be gin at once a thorough course of treatment with Dr. Miles' Nervine. There is no nerve, tonic so good, so sure, so safe. It speedily restores the weakened nerves to healthy action, and builds strength and tissue. 'T was raised on s farm at hard labor, and when I left the farm and began preaching, the change of occupation and excessive study shattered my nerves and impaired my memory. I began taking Dr. Miles' Restor ative Nervine, and after using two bottles I could see a decided improvement, and I con tinued until I had used nine bottles, when I considered myself completely cured. That was seven years ago so that I know my cure is permanent My health has been excellent ever since. I am glad to add my testimony to the merits of this wonderful restorative nd trust that other sufferers may receive the same benefit from its use that I have." Rsv. W. L. Singleton, Duluth, Ga.

"Democrat" Writes of His Claims Upon the Democracy of the State. To the Editor of The News. I wish to say a few words in com mendation of my friend, Hon. R. B. Glenn. j Mr. Glenn Is entirely worthy of re-: cognition by the State, both as a man, as a citizen, and as a Democrat. His campaign with Butler, and his services in the legislature have made his name a household word in North Carolina. He Is the war horse of Democracy. To him the party leaders have always looked when it -was necessary to have the people of North Carolina stirred to a sense of their duty. While he would not attempt to detract from anyone of his competitors who may lay claim to this honor in part by reason of hav ing served in the "Lost Cause," still it is but fair to him that his friends should know why he did not serve. Be ing now under fifty years of age, of course he was too young to serve his State in the 60's, but his father, at South Mountain, gave his life for his State and Its rights, and his son since his earliest manhood has fought its battles on the hustings and in the halls of the legislature. His battles have been battles for the people of his State. -He has not yet been honored with an office directly from the people of the State. It is true that he has been an elector, has beeu,a member of the legis lature and of tbe Senate and has served a term as District Attorney, but these were offices which did not carry with them the stamp of approval, recogni tion and confidence of his fellow citi zens of the State. j If one were asked the names of the three men who have done most for the Democratic party, In all probability the answer would be Simmons, Aycock and Glenn. Simmons and Aycock in recog nition of their services prior to the election to their present positions had received about the same honors as Mr. Glenn, They have both been honored directly by the people of the State. It is but fair to ask, why should not the people treat Mr. Glenn" as they have treated these other gentlemen. They have been contemporaries In the poli tical life of the State and certainly Mr. Glenn's services to the State have been no less. Certainly his ability and in tegrity is equal to theirs.
