William H. Plumb, 21 years old,
tall, lank and boyish ia appearance
and one of a gang of street clean-ers,
was married Tuesday to a
wealthy woman in Jackson, Mich.,
under remarkable circumstances.
When ho was working on the
street this morning lie wua ap-proached
by a saloon-keeper who
explained tluit there was u woman
ut the Stowell House who was anx
ions to get married. She did not
want to live with her husband, but
she must get married, nnd would
pay IlilO to any.man who would go
through the ceremony.
Plumb consented to act as the
bridegroom.
The saloon-keeper said that the
! woman had to gel married to com-ply
with the terms of n will involv-ing
a large Detroit property.
The couple proceeded to the
Stowell House, whero a lawcr, who
gave his name as J. A. Dart, intro-duced
Plumb to Mrs. Amanda
Iicntley, a well preserved woman 70
years old. A minister was secured
and the marriage service per-formed.
Mrs. Bentley Plumb, in explana-tion
of the remnrkalilc wedding,
said : -My husband, who died some
years ago, had been married before
nnd had several children. He made
a will leaving his property to mo
during my life. Then1 was a clause
in tlif will which provided that if I
were to marry again the property

Mr. Vance Breaks np the Senate.
During tho consideration of tho
Idaho contested election case. Mr.
Vance taking the lloor in behalf of
the contestant, Mr. Clnggett, Mr.
Vance made a witty speech, his
sonorous voice filling the chamber.
At one point in his remarks two
prominent senators who were en-gaged
in earnest conversation
reached a point in their discussion
which.elicited from one of them a
most extraordinary sound—a com-pound
between, a laugh and a yawn.
Pausing abruptly nnd gazing in the
direction of theolTcnders, Mr.Vance
said : " Mr. President, I do . not
yield.'" The amusement which this
diversion created seemed to break
up the interest in the debate, nnd
at 4.35 a motion lo adjourn was
carried.—Richmond 7Vine.*-.

Samuel Johnston's wife was Frances

married John Swann, a descendant of
Major Samuel iHwaun, the ancestor of
many of North Carolina's best citi-zens,
but I bey letl no issue. Three
other children of Samuel Johnston
died early without issue, viz: Gabriel,
Frances and I'ulen. One son, James
Calhcart fohntton, a trustee of our
University for forty-seven years, in-herited
his large estaie, never married,
and died, as his father bad done, at the
beautiful family residence, Hayes, near
Kdcnton. The contest over his will
was one or the cone* ctlcbrtti of our
courts, lie had a strong mind; but his
taste kept him In the retirement of
private life.
The name of the family home is in-dicative
of the strong admiration of
Samuel Johnston for the character of
the llrst William Pitt, Earl of Chatham
whose country seat was called Hayes.
