carpet, and on the altar amid the ever?
greens was crushed white cheese cloth,
thus forming a snow scene. On both sides
of tho altar atood two lnrge posts cov?
ered with magnolias, upon which was
placed two cadelabra, bearing as many
candles as was the age of tho bride. From
tha celling hung a largo bell of green,
mingled with white roses, and from the
place where the bell hung was draped
to different parts of the house green fes?
tooning, which was connected with white
ribbon, thus forming a spider wobb ef?
fect.
The ushers who seated the large con?
gregation wero Messrs. Charlie L. Wll?
born, Tom Chandler, Arthur'-Tuck and
Mr. D. Currln. .
Promptly at 0:30. o'clock the strains of

taken their stand. Miss Saille Belle

DIVIDENDS IN BANKRUPT CASES.
D. Lawrence Groner, referee In bsnk
tuptcy, Is ready to pay dividends In
bankrupt estates as follows:
B. Miller, 10 per cent.; a payment of
?K.O0O.
R. W. Woodlcy, 20 per cent.; a payment
of' M.O0O.
Carnage & Waller, 10 per cent.; a pay?
ment of $2.000.
Adolph Mlchelsohn,'1 per cent; a pay?
ment of $G00.
McCorckle Drug Co., 10 per cent.", n.
payment of $1,000.
Several of these cases were sensational,
notably those of Miller and Mlcholsohn,
where large amounts were stated In the
schedules of debts, with comparatively
small assets. None of these failures In?
volved a largo amount of money, nnd
therefore they have created no financial
rllslrotan wlintnv.fr.
TWO VERSION'S OF JOHNSON.
H. A. Johnson, who was lined bare
yesterday, said, that'he had no plnns for
the future but-to return to Clayton, N;
Y., and to his family. He said he could
not explain why he eloped with Mrs.
Davis, as ho was doing well in Clayton,
except that It was a case of a beautiful
womnn, a fine voice and a weak man.
Johnson nclmltted that his relations with
Mrs. Davis began one week after her
marriage to a traveling book agent. Mrs.
Davis came to Johnson, so ho pays, for
advice, he being her pastor. In his ears
she poured her domestic troubles.
She engaged his sympathy by telling
him that her husband gave her but fifty
cents a week to live on. and that he had
given her but fifty cents while they were
together. Chief J. R. Alexander, head
of the Clayton Police Department, In a
letter to the Norfolk police, tells the his?
tory of the elopement of Johnson. He
also sont a photoirraph of Johnson, which
Is an excellent likeness, oxcept the cler?
ical coat which Johnson wore when ho
bad the photograph taken at his New York
home. Chief Alexander says that John?
son was pastor of an Influential church
and seemed prosperous and hnppy before
his downfall.
Chief Alexander says that Davis pro?
tested In vain about relations with her
pastor, and his complaints were not re?
garded seriously by the memhers of his
congregation. However, shortly after
Davis' departure they were startled by
the simultaneous disappearance of their
pastor and tha beautiful leading soprano
of their choir, and then the tnlk began
which resultod In the scandal being print?
ed In tha New York papers and the ar?
rest of Johnson here, because of pictures
published in tha newspapers, which
showed the tdentlty of the elopers.
