went up out in the crowded rot inula,
and it was known that Mr. Carlisle had
come. A path was forced along the

When quiet was partially restored.

tha alert to out his way to liberty or out
hi way1 to death. Paul Jones, a negro

folk and gar it to Jailor Birdaong. How
Woolfolk got tha raw is a mystery to

thai some visitor admitted to sat soma

and sharp, and in the hands of a desper
ate man like Woolfolk, he could cut sev
eral men to aeatn in a very snort time.
Woolfolk had broken off a part of the
lower end of the handle and fastened it
in the look of the razor, so as to keep the
blade from turning back. He wrapped
the handle with strong twine, whioh
made the blade immovable, thus tiling
a most deadly weapon for its murderous
use. The twine was waxed, so as to
hold the cords tight. Evidently, it was
the intention of Woolfolk to catch Jailer
Birdsong unaware, when feeding the
prisoners, cut his throat, and then make
his escuoe.
It is believed that Woolfolk has been
feigning sickness to get the jailer otf his
guard, and thus have a better oppurtu-

Isabella Blaine, eldest daughter of the
secretary of state, was married at
o'clook Saturday afternoon at tho res!
deno of her father, in this city, to
Walter Damrosch, of New York. The
affair was the crowning event of a bril
liant social season, rendered the inor
interesting from the privacy which sur
rounded it. Public curiosity had been
whetted for some time by annonnce-
meute about the coming ceremony, al
ways guarded and never complete,
The secrecy watch served only to in
crease the interest in the event, was due
in great measure to the afflictions which
have fallen upon the family of the sec
retary of state daring the past winter.
The engagement of Miss Blaine was
announced some months ago, but the
marriage has been postponed because of
the comDiirativelv recent death of Mrs.
Copuinger, her sister, and later of her
brother. Walker Blaine. It was the wish
of the secretary of state that th cere.
mony should be postponed only so long
as was necessary; out ne sirongiy wisneu
that th marriage should be entirely
private, and that the witnesses should
lie confined to the immediate members
of the families of the contracting par-
The official position of Mr. Blain ren
dered it iuiiHMsibln, however, to main,
tain this strict privacy, esiieeiallv as Mr,
Damrosch was anxious that the Herman
minister at washiuuton should be pres.
ent. So invitations were extended to all
of the tnemlvrs of the diplomatic corps
and to a few personal friends of the
Blsine and Damrosch families. In view
of the semi-otficial character of the event,
an invitation was extended also to the
United Press.
The ireueral interest which surround
