A Prominent Couple. Quietly Wedded
at Shearn Church, Houston.
A quiet wedding was solemnized at
Shearn church yesterday afternoon,

nent families.
The contracting parties were Mr.

ered about the altar, Mr. and Mrs.
Ford departed for a bridal tour, going
first to Galveston where the news of
the marri&^e was left as a surprise to
a majority of their friends and ac-
quaintances In this city.
The bride has spent the greater part
of her life here and Is loved for her
womanly charms and gentle manner
*ommi**lon to try treason cases.- He-who know her. She has been
waa thus partially ln*triftnental Id
convicting three brothers from Colum-
bus for complicity with tbe enemy and
they were Incarcerated in Savannah
until released by Sherman, with other
prisoners, upon hi* entrance Into that
oity. Tbe court at Macon waa dissolv-
ed by th* Federal General Wilson,
when he entered the city on a raid.
Major Smith then Journeyed toward
Lawrenceville, where his wife was
•topping with her father, fa eras-
ing the Tellow river he learned that
the enemy we% ahead of htm, so, tie-
Ing the record* of the treason court
op with a cord, he attached a heavy
rock to the handle and they sank for-
ever from sight la tbe eagniaag wa-
ter*. Another Incident of these days
was the trip Major Smith took with
President Davis from Mlllen to Macon,
during which he aarsed Mrs. Hayes,
then a very young girl

erate money. Five thousand dollars
of this he toveated In ootton cards,
which be packed into one *tde of hi*
valise, and the other $5,000 In opium.
He returned as he had gone, in a back
overland, and with the addition to hts
Sel ma Investment of a box of tobacco
and a bolt of Roswell shirting, he took
Bob Hargrove info partnership and
they had the biggest stand In Rome.
He practiced law in Rome with
Judge Branham and also with Judge
Underwood, each for a long term of
years.
He moved to Fontaine farm, la Bar-
tow county, In 1ST?, where Nabor
Freeman, a aoble friend aad good fel-
low, figured In his letter*. "Cabe"

something more. It Is rich' and mel-

"The crop I* laid by." he said when
his children grew up and married off.

STATEMENT BY BROWN.
Visible Supply of Cetten Smallest
Since Close of th* War.
New York. August 24.—W. P. Brown
ha* a long statement In the Journal of
Commerce in reply to assertion* of the
Financial Chronicle that tbe bull
clique has had to take 27,000 bales of
European cotton at 12 cent* per pound,
so far. and their difficulties are Just
beginaing. Mr. Brown says, among
other thine*:
"I will state that the cotton that we
hava received at New York on con-
tract was bought at various times and
at varioua prices. For the sake of Il-
lustration, I will say on the basis of
cents, and It has made no differ-
ce to us where the cotton cam*
from. The bears evidently could not
get the ootton in this country aad had
to buy it In Europe and ship it back,
aad it caa be readily seen that the
bears have paid out a difference be-
tween tbe price at which they sold us
the cotton and the price they have had
to pay for tt in Europe, plus tbe co*t
of shipping It back and delivering it."
"Wbat do you think of the refer-
ence to Mr. Ellison's statement r
gardlng the European mill stocks be-
ing greater than a year ago?"
My opinion 1* that the vUible supply
of cotton in the world is the smallMt
in proportion to the consumption since
Immediately after th* civil war. It
would be ridiculous to suppose that
th* mills are carrying big stocks, or
even as large stock* as last year, when
It 1* claimed that at least 25 per cent
of the production is either shut down
or running on short time.
"The total visible supply of Ameri-
can ootton today la round figures Is
about eighteen days' consumption, and
by the end of this month the chafices
at* that It wltl be considerably lower.
We then go lato September, aad It
look* like a famine, aad right cm lato

MAKING THC SCULPTURE.
How th* Ovcorativ* Statuary of the
Exposition la Producsd.
St. Louis.—The sculpture for the
decors'*™ of the buildings and
grounda of the Louiaiana Purchase
Exposition is first modeled In the stu-
dioe of tbe different sculptors commis-
sioned to do the respective works, and
is than enlarged or "built up" in a
large workshop at Hobokén and at the
World'* Fair grounda at St. Louis.
The work of enlarging require* the
■•rvlcsB of a large force of men and
makes a busy industry. Many of those
so employed are students and young
sculptors who thus obtain a livelihood
white studying art and at the same
time have an opportunity of making
progress in knowledge of the art of
sculpture aad skill in modeling.
The preparation of the decorative
sculpture for so vast an exposition a*
th* World's Fair at St. Louis is a mon-
umental task- It engages the atten-
tion of over 80 sculptors, besides the
large number of men—about 900-r-om-
ployed In tbe enlargement work. This
activity goes on under the direction of
thb well known sculptor, Karl Bitter,
who I* awisted in the discharge of
his monumental task by an advisory
oommlttee on sculpture, composed of
Daniel C. French, J. Q. A. Ward and
Augustus St. Gaudens. This committee
inspect* the sketches submitted by
the various sculptor*, and passes up-
on the enlargements mad* for tbe
decoration ot the grounds of th* Fair.
Th* oommlttee reports that the work
ta progressing rapidly and satisfac-
torily. Th* designs show originality
and are of a high order of merit Th*
designs themaelve* compare favorably
with those mad* for previous exposi-
tions and th* enlargement 1* done with
moiy tfdll than «ver before.
