TUE EXPECTED HAS II PI EX ED
When Talmage gave np his uni
que and inimitable platform didos
in Brooklyn and made known his
purpose to become one of the assist
ant pastors of a church, in Washing-
n, many ejected a hitch.
as come the "almosJifnan'
expected has happeneli.but lonr
re the eruption was prophecied. j
irrepressible man like Talmage,
with his untiring acd ineshanstabk
propensity and capacity to do ail the
talking, when his pecnliar oratory
gets in ic3 sway, can not be hushed;
A man that talks and acts in the
pulpit as if he continually sees him
self in a mirror, and has his own
way fcr so long a time, just can't he
curtailed in his frizzles, and, amid
- the applause of a loving, curious
public, the frizzles become with
time, if possible, more frizzly and
gorgeonB.
Those, who know Mr. Talmage's
many gifts and his long drawn out
and twisted English, as if conceived
ia a double cyclone, and his nn
quenchible desire to be seen aid
heard, do not wonder at the hard
hip it works on him to confine him
to a single sermon on Sunday. A
iermon-a-day for one of Dr. Tal-
sage's kind does not cut a caper at
gaUsfying his oratorical nervounesB
ar his - keen sense of commercial
activity. x
fia Dr . Talmase will mount his
guns on pulpit platforms other than
liia own. when its date belongs to
his co-laborer- ;

A contemporary remarks that
when one hears of the great output

him realize that this is a pretty, big

does the average newspaptr man
isn't apt to be arotyid himself.

Marion Butler of North Jtuolina
turned loose in the Senate yestarday.
We yenture the assertion that no man
that eyer sat in that body bas so firm
a gripon fame asMarionBntler. But-
reminds jou or. uan i wibster-
he is so different. W seriously donbt
whether there is any living thing,
from a man to a bacillus, that has
as little sens as Marion Butler of
Nortn Carolina. This is why be will
be so famous. Peffer of Kansas got
mighty short weight when he laid
in his brain supply, but Peffer is to
Marion Butler as Jove is to a worm.
Yet this thing can open its month
and talk for hours on a stretch, and
at a distance of a handrel yards
look almost human. The way
North Carolina happened to send
this freak of nature to the Senate
was this :
A motion was pending to send
him to a dime museum; somebody in
a spirit of fun moved to strike out
"dime museum" and insert United
States Senate," and the Legislature,
being drunk, and Populite, too boot,
adopted the amendment, tabled a
motion to reconsider, and let it go
at that.
Butler will do much to promote
the gayety of nations while he is
there. He is a fountain of folly that
is never at rest and never goes dry.
Ho is a sprouting geyser of hot mud
that will attract yisitors from the

mer with him; hen pecked husbands,
undertakers, Englishmen "and all
kinds of solemn and sunless natures
have been known to look on Marion
Butler and laugh joyously. North
Carolina has been noted for its hu
mor, but the broadest joke it ever
sprung on the broad and hilarious
earth is its freak Senator, the thing
with the form of a man, the voice of
an ass and the brain of a bird.

f
ruasbnnd Ik Hcouotiret-The Wife
IrapodMf I !
The Raleigh correspondence of
this morning's Charlotte Observer
appeared the following : '
Casusal mention was made the
other day of the fact that a yonng
lady of this city who at Salisbury
last year married a young man on
only three days' acquaintance, had
returned to her parents. The man
is in jail in Iowa, charged with horse
stealing. He was here and aided in
conducting seryices in a Methodist
church. A pastor of anotner
church tells me he had information
which led him to steer clear of ihe
young mav and alleged preacher.
The latter is said to have no less
than three wives. Great sympathy
is expressed for the young woman
who was so shamefully deceived by
the scoundrel.
While no names are given the peo
pie oi Salisbury will readily recall
the circumstances of the marriage.
Some time in last February, about
the first of the month, a man came
here in the interest of the Encylo-
peadia Britannica, whieb was being
sold by the Charlotte Observer. He
gave bis name as H W S Burton,
and said be was a minister of the
Christian church and had been com
pelled to give np preaching in Main
because of poor health. He was a
good talker, with the manner and
appearance of a gentleman, and was
kindly reated by our people. While
here he preached in the Baptist
church several times, once or more
in the Presbyterian church and ad
dressed the Y. M. C. A.
On the nightj of February 28tn
Barton met Miss Florence Loye, a
niece of Rey. N. S. Jones, who came
here from Raleigh on a visit They
were married on Saturday night,
March 9th, at the Baptist parsonage,
by Rey. C B King, pastor of the
Lutheran church. The mrrriage oc
curred just ten days after they were
introduced.
There were rumors abont Burton
shortly after his marriage, but
nothing definite was brought out ex
cept that he was in financial trouble.
When be left here the matter was
forgotten and was thought of by
very few people.
The Herald showed the aboye to
Rey. N S Jones and asked if he had
any knowledge of it. From him we
learned that Mrs. Burton was with
her parents in Raleigh, having gone
there from some town in Illinois,
where Burton was nnder arrest. The
cautes leading to the arrest were
tnese :
Burton, while in St. Louis, made a
contract with a sewing machine
company, the Singer, it is believed,
and went into Illinois to sell the
machines. By representations made
to a liveryman at the town in hich
he first stopped be purchased a pair
of horses, giving a mortgage on the
team and machine he had. Later
he borrowed some money from the
sheriff of the county and gaye an-,
other mortgage on the horses. He
was to canyasa the town and conn
try, bat instead of doing so went to
another town, where be passed nnder
an as nmed name. The men who
bad been duped had Burton followed
and he was arrested and carried back
to the scene of his swindling.
After Barton a arrest his deluded
wifv telegraphed her father and was
told to come back home, which she
did. The trial of Barton was to
haye taken place last week, but
nothing has been heard from it
Whether or not be is in jail Mr.
Jones was nnable to say.
Mrs. Burton is well known in
Salisbury and has a number of
friends here who sympathize with
her m her tiouble. Salisbury Her

McKINLEY-FORAKER CLASH.
It Was Over the Confirmation of the
State Librarian, and Hay Affect the
Fntnre of Both These Onloans-
Columbus, O., Jan. 7 There was
a fierce clash between the Foraker
and McKmlej factions in the Senate
today that may cause opposition to
ex-Goyernor Foraker for the United
States Senatorship and Governor Mo
Kinley in his own State for the
presidential nomination. It was
over tne continuation of Jos.
Smith's appointment by Governor
McKmley for State Librarian. Sen
ator Shattns, of Cincinnati, a friend
of Foraker, charged that Smith as
Bailed Foraker's character last sum
mer when he came out as a candid
ate ior United Stetes Senator, saying
that he would better be sent to the
penitentiary. Senator Garfield, son
of' the late President, defended
Smith. The fight was close and bit
ter and resulted in confirmation of
the appointment by a yote of 18
to 17.
. The Democrat! 3 minority caucused
last night and decided to jote for
Brice for Sena'or. Five yo'tes were
cast against this decision. They
were for Dr. J Kagf, of Crawford
