W01- stylo tin., '"nn thero i ' "uWh Weekly, year said u mo vo Rort of to a to u Just Cause For Forbidding a Wedding By OSCAR COX Just beforo tho civil war broke out thcro was a colored man living on a plantation in TenncBBCO called Court ney St Legcr, This aristocratic name Booms so out of place for a negro slave that a word of explanation Is noc esnary. It had beon derived from Colo' nel St. IOgcr, who had owned tho man ln Louisiana, and a previous master named Courtney, for at that time no tiroert took their names from their owners. Now, Courtney had had a "wlfo on the Courtney plantation, and from her he had bean divorced by tho fact only that he had been sold to Colonel St. Lcgcr. Whllo under tho colonel's own ershlp ho had married another wife, and n few years later he had been sold to n Mr. Ilnrland of Tennessee Not long after ho had been bought by Mr. Ilarhmd ho concluded to take a wife from among tho women owned by that gentleman. Susan Clarke, whoso namo had come to her from n former master, had been bought la Now Orleans. How many husbaiulH alio had had would not have been known on tho Harland plantation had It not been that Tcto Lofevre, one of her fellow slaves in Tennessee, and his wlfo rhocbo hod been bought at tho samo tlmo with her and know of at least two that sho had had under different ownerships. Courtney and Susan concluded to blot out their remembrances of past connubial bliss and trials by taking each other for lawful partners. Mis Bey Haiiaud, as they called their mis tress, was u good woman and would lllco to havo stemmed the current of such marriages among her slaves, but tho system of Blavery was not condu cive to sqiicamlshuess on tho subject, nnd sho was Obliged to tako tho situa tion u h sho found It. So long as couples woro sold apart there were to bo found cases wherein a strict regard for the letter of, tho dlvlno institution of mar rlago was not observed. So when per mission to marry was handed In at the manor house It was granted. Tho wed ding took placo In an Episcopal church. Tho rector was colored, nnd the wed. ding guests wero also people of color. Tho pair marched up tho ulslo to tha chaucel, tho groom with a magnolia ln his buttonliolo, tho brldo In a white muslin gown given her by her mlB tress. Tho ceremony went on glibly till that part of tho servlco was reach ed lu which tho clergyman says: If iinv man can show Just causo why tlioy may not lawfully bo Joined togetlior lot him now upoak or forovor after hold lila iouco, Then Pcto Lefovro arose from among tho wedding gueHtu and snld: "I know why Court St. Leper shouldn't marry Suo Clar.ce, Fust off, Poto, ho got threo wives areddy, ana Suo, she got two husban's I knows on nnd"- Tho remarks woro interrupted by I Wear Them for "Nice Then for Everyday Use It is good policy to have at least two pairs of shoes and wear each pair on alternate days. Two pairs worn this way will last as long as four pairs if each is used day after day till it is worn out. You can pursue this policy and save money if you buy our shoes. Some fine shoes are good for only Sunday and dress-up wear. But The Gotzian Shoe after it is too shabby for "nice" still keeps its shape and value and doesn't go to pieces under hard work. One reason is this : In making our shoes we leave in the lasts till they are finished. This lets the leather do its shrinking in the factory, not on the wearer's feet. Next time ask your dealer for Number 721G. A Lace Blucher of Vclour Calf. Jutt right for dressy young men.

The bride, tho groom, the clergyman and guests all changed their astonished glances from Pete to Uncle Ben. "Wha" fo" yo' mls'able Louisiana nig ger yo cum hyar fo' t' mak dlstu'b nnce ln de house ob de Lord? Yo shut up dat red and black mouf o yourn or dls hyar congregation gwlne to put yo' out!" "Plow can I bo nflked to show Just cause why Court and Sue mayn't law fully bo JIned togeddor and yo' say yo gwlne put mo out ef I do?" Ben scratched his head, looked like a bull Just about to lift a rail fence with his horns and Anally said: "Dat part o' do ceremony wa'n't meant fo niggers at all. It war meant fo' white folks." "You's all wrong," said Mose Tucker, coming into tho fray "White folks don pay no mo 'tention to dat dan niggers. Do finest people an' de rich est people ln do worl' hab do mo3' hus bands nnd wives." "How dey do 't?" asked Uncle Ben. "By dlvo'te Jlst as easy as fallln' offn a greased log. But dem kind o' wcddln's tak' money. Dat's de reason do richer dey air de easier It air to swap husban'a and wives." "Bredderln'," said the parson, look ing benignly over his spectacles, "you's all gwlne wrong. De Lord ain't no suspecter ob pussons. He hab do same law fo' do white man and do nigger. It's do Interfretatlon wha' rank's de difference Do white man Intcrfrets do word accordln' to his possessions, do nigger accordln' to his necessities. Do Interfretatlon ln dls ciiho Is dat It Is all right fo' Peto to show Just cause why dls marriage sha'n't tak' place. but accordln' to do Interfretatlon Court and Suo Hbln under do miction ham mer, do Lord ain't gwlne to hold 'em to do same account as dem as Is worf a million dollars. Now, yo' Peto. yo' eliet up or I gib my dlvlno permission ns pastor ob dls chu'eh fo' to put yo out" Peto subsided, the ceremony proceed cd, and at its conclusion Court and Suo sailed smilingly down the aisle end out of the church. "Pa'son," said an old durky to the officiating clergyman, "dey war amid der froologlcal p'lut In do survlco yo' didn't say nuthln' about" "Wha' dat?" "Why, It's 'let no man put nsunder.' Dat don't mean nottcn 'bout do lus' tlmo do man or do woman war put asunder: It only mean dls tlmo. And dls time don't hab nottlu' to do with do nex tlmo nudder." "Jes' so, brudder. Yo' dead right Buttercups. Buttorcups got their names becauso tho pcoplo who named them didn't know any betters They thought that tho cows ato tho buttercups and that was what mado the butter yollow lit tho snrlng tlmo. It was n pretty Idea, and tho only fault to find with It is that cows novej eat buttercups when they can possibly help It. And if you blto ono you'll boo why. Cows don't like the tastq of them any moro than you do. TRIPS EAST For residence and business lots see O. A. Pierce. tf Wanted Sow and pigs. Mare all purpose animal, about 1200 pounds.
