Married Five Months liefere the Family of Hither Discovers It and Then Only Through a Communication Sent to the "Evening Journal' Offlee. A communication was received at this office this morning stating that Clarence 8, Poole and Miss Emma V. Winkler wer« married in Philadelphia, May 21 of this year A reporter took the letter and called at the residence of Millard T. Poole, No. 810 West Eighth street, to ascertain further particulars. The house is a very pretty one, sit uated in one of the exclusive parts of the city It is a brick house with bay win dows In front and at the sides with a portico extending across the front. The appearance of it betokens the ease and comfort of Us occupants and suggests that the owner most be a wealthy and refined person and particularly careful of Its appearance. The reporter rang the polished bronze door-bell rather sharply, which moned a buxom colored woman to the door. He inquired if this was the resi dence of Mr. and Mrs. •larenoe H. Poole. The woman seemed taken aback, bnt replied that it was, and in answer to the reporter's wish to see one of them, she called a woman to the door. The re porter was invited to step into the parlor and did so. Here the evidence of cnltnre and finement seen on the exterior was fully borne out by the appearance of the in terior. The room was furnished with qslet taste and more with an eye to comfort than showiness or grandeur, although the furniture was by no means cheap or unsightly. On the contrary it was in bright colors, bnt in keeping with the re mainder of the room and showed the refined taste of the occupants. The woman who entered the room attired in a dark dress and walked with a queenly air which betokened one used to command. She motioned the writer to a seat and then inquired his business. He told his business in a few words, that is, asked if the communication were correct. He took the paper and read follows; "Mr. Clarence H. Poole and Miss Emma-," here the writing was In distinct, but before he could decipher the words the lady interrupted by say ing: "Emma Winkler, but go on;" the reporter concluded "of this city, married in Philadelphia " Here again he was startled by the sudden interruption of the lady who, by the way, was the mother of Clarence H. Poole. Mrs Poole threw up her hands, fell back In a chair and said, "If that is so, it will be a death blow to me. " She arose to her feet, however, and called "Clarence! Clarence! Come down here into the parlor." She called twice before she received an answer, but immediately after she received an answer a footstep was heard ou the stairs and In a short time Clarence H. Poole entered the room. He is a slight, boyish looking man, with just a few straggling hairs his upper lip, and is apparently not more than 18 years old. He is a member of the firm of M, T, Poole & Sons. The letter was shown to him, and Le glanced over it. His mother ran up to him and cried; "Clarence, Clarence Is this true?" He simply uttered a monosylabic affirmative. His mother sink back on a chair ex claiming, "Clarence, how could yon de clare your poor mother so, how could sum re w »» as were you do it." She began crying and said: "When did this occur, oh ! why did yon do it " and similar exnressions. She became almost hysterical and arose and clapped him to her bosom at the same time exclaiming, "Oh, my God! give me strength in the hour of my trials and troubles," and said to her son, "Clarence, why did you disobey and de ceive me so, I never thought you could do such a thing. When did you marry her and continued re iterating these and other similar expressions, threatening to go off into hysterics. During all of this pathetic grief the son stood by, the paper In his hand. His voice was calm but his body shook like a reed, and he could hardly repress his feelings, but be managed to speak a few soothing words to his almost heart broken mother. Then turning to the re porter he said that the story was correct and that he had married Miss Winkler In Philadelphia end requested that the notice be published in the Evening Journal. The story of the marriage appears to be as follows as taken from the broken utterances of the mother and the calmer bat not less nervous utterances of the son. The Story of the .Marriage. It appears that young Poole, who is of a good family became acquainted with Miss Emma Winkler, and loved her. Now Miss Winkler did not move in the same circle as Mrs, Poole, and when they wished to marry, Mrs. Poole objected to the match, The lovers, however, had determined to be married and on May 21, last, they went to Philadelphia and were privately married by a minister there. They re turned to this city, bnt kept their secret from their parents until the present time, when circumstances appeared to demand that ths marriage ' be made public, and thus the notice was received at this office, which led to the startling denouement at Poole's home. Mrs. Poole was almost hysterical this morning and could not talk to the re porter after the scene which had been made, but the above story was gathered from the remarks between her and her son, in the presence of the writer. The Parties Involved Mr. Poole is the junior member of the firm of Millard T. Poole & Son, paper hangers at 418;King stree t. The senior member was formally a real estate broker but is now in the above named bns'ness. The yonng man has been in the fi rm for some time. The reporter went to the business place of the firm, bnt it was closed, and a notice on the door stated that the occu pants were not within, bnt would return in a half hour. c Miss Emma Winkler. The directory gives the address of Mrs. Martha Winkler at No. 2 Mousiey's Row, Thither the writer went and found that Mrs. Winkler had lived there and had a daughter named Emma, but had moved away some time since and was now living in East Lake Park. The re porter followed up the last "pointer" and at last at No. 7 West Thirtieth street, found the young woman's family. SÇThe house is a plain, frame strne tare. The knock at the door was an swered by a small boy, about 5 years old. The inquiry if Mrs Winkler lived there was answered in the affirmative. When questioned ss to whether Miss Emma Winkler lived there ha said "yes" but that she was very sick in bed. He was asked what was the matter,bnt befere he could answer he was pulled back from the door by a woman who inquired his business, She was shown the commui icalicn and said that it was correct anJ that Mis* Winkler was her daughter. She said they were married in Philadelphia and afterwards said her daughter was sick. GOVERNOR BOB. Mr. Key not (In' Straightforward Speech at the Maas Meeting. At the ratification meeting on Satur day night.loud cries arose for "Reynolds' Reynolds!," after Willard Saulsbury.Jr., had finished speaking. The next gover nor stepped to the front of the platform and said; "Mh. Chairman, Fki.low Citizens; I am not here to make a speech. Per haps most of you know that I am not a political speaker.

Wilkins Cooch, who had acted as chairman in place of Governor Biggs during the latter part of the meeting.
