THlJ ORECHJN STATESMAN; FRIDAY, MAY 13. 1887
A Frontier Wedding.
"8peaking of weililings reminds me of
one I took active part in a good many
yean uo," said a retired army officer.
"That was when you were married
yourself, wasn't it?" I queried.
"No, 'twas at Fort Laramie in earlier
days, when I was post adjutant there,"
he answered. "You know," lie went on,
"or perlmlM vou don't know, that a post
or reginwnui adjutant can tie tint nuptial
knot as fast as any sleek-haired parson
in the world."
"Didn't know it? Well, the igno
rance of Vits' regarding military affairs
in the United Suites in something amaz
ing. Well, he can," went on Col K., af
ter I had manifested miflicient surprise.
"At frontier posts the people come in
eeventy-tive and a hundred miles to have
the seal of the law put on their affairs
d'amour.
"Tell me about the wedding."
"Well, you see, it was my first western
experience, and the fact that any one ev
er got married out in Wyoming was news
to me. 1 thought 'twas a feature of civ
ilization quite superfluous in those parts.
One day all of us oflicers were in the
club rooms amusing ourselves variously.
We'd settled down comfortably to a long
pull at poker, and I'd just taken up a
hand of four aces and a king, when a
voice like bottled thunder shouted :
" 'Whar'sthe marryin' man? Which
one of yon does the tyin'?' and just inside
the doorway loomed the big figure of a
redshirted ranchman, with buckskin
pants and slouch hat and a sixshooter
and bowie knife sticking up from his car
tridge belt. Ho tvore immense spurs on
his bin boons, and altogether it was a
proper cowboy's or roadagent's outfit.
"Every one looked at me, and I
blushed like a milkmaid as I reluctantly
laid down my four aces and stood up,
while a half-suppressed laugh went
around the crowd.
" 'Be you the soldier parson?' asked
the man in the buckskin pants.
" 'I am the adjutant,' I replied, with
all the official dignity I could muster.
" 'Oh, you be, lie you? Wal, we've
come down r-ere to get spliced, and I
'speet the quicker you kin get yer jaws to
wagjjin' the better. Hev we got any
thing to do or say ?' and he reached out
side the door and pulled a woman inside
by the sleeve of her dress.
"She was mightily scared to see so
many men, and I felt sorry for her,
though she was a stupid looking girl, and
sot very neatly gotten up. It was plain
to be seen that her ante-marital relations
had been not altogether of a Platonic na
ture, and it evidently would have been
quite as well if this lemil covenant had
been ratified several monthsJjefore.
" 'Will you step across intW my office ?'
I said, feeling like that famous cat in the
strange attic, or the dog with that tradi
tional tin kettle appended, and I'm sure
no boys ever delighted in chasing said
dog more than my fraternal tormentors
did in watching me, and for the moment
I cursed the unhappy iuck that had made
me the tool of any one's fate. Buffin
was the commandant, and he said, in a
very magisterial way he could assume :
'The law requires that this ceremony
should have witnesses, and the more
binding will be the obligation, so we will
all adjourn to the office and attest to the
legitimacy of the contract.'
"I hadn't the remotest idea, what was
expected of me, or what I had to do, but
I determined one thing that I should
certainly do enough. They say it re
quires twelve hours to perform the mar
riage ceremony of a Syrian bride, but it
didn't take me quite so long as that.
First, I opened the hand book of mili
tary tactics. I don't know exactly why,
unless it was because it looks something
like a prayer liook. As I couldn't find
anything in that which seemed to strike
the matter in hand, I took up the Army
Begulations, and opening to the articles
of war read a hundred or so of them to
the bridal pair, whom I had commanded
to stand before me in the position of sol
diers at inspection. After that I treated
them to seven pages out of the regula
tions, beginning at the twenty-sixth. Wat
kins stood at my elbow giving me period
ical punches in the ribs, Paris not far off,
and, as usual, giggling like a school
girl. Major Buffin was at the left of the
girl, having gravely suggested the pro
priety of his giving away the bride, and
there were all of tke rest of them, look
ing quizzically on, Merrill, Thorpe, Dob
son, Cavendish, Elgere, Wintermute,
Hedge, Bleyer, O'Donnell, Severy, and
Jim Barnaby, who was so bowlegL-ed he
couldn't stop eheep running through a
gateway; all of 'em glaring at me till the
sweat ran off me in streams, and my face
was as red as the rum-blossom on the
end of old Col. Van Dam's nose, and I
was shaking in every joint. I was in a
dilemma to know whether a praver was
really an essential to the legality of the
performance. I'd been to several wed
dings in my time, and was sure there
was a praver to come in some where. I
looked around, and was even rash enough
to hazard asking advice of Buffin in a
low tone, which he answered in a stage
whisper, 'Pronounce 'em man and wife.
Let up on the ceremony. Enough is as
good as a feast.' I did as he told me, and
conjured them that what I had joined to
gether they were in no wise to let some
cowboy put asunder. I might have kept
on till midnight, but the place was thick
with tobacco smoke, and the state of the
bride's health, the approaching darkness,
and a few more things, seemed to point
to the desirability of shortening the af
fair up.
" 'Wal, I don't see but what it's all
slick enough,' said the groom, ' and done
up as neat as one of them fellows could
do it with his religious racket. What's
yer price, Cap'n?'
"I sized up the crowd, and concluded
it would take about ten dollars to treat all
around, sol named that sum, and the
man cheerfully handed over the green
backs, satisfied that he'd got the full
worth of his money if time had any
value, and the erstwhile twain made one
rede off together on their shaggy steeds
toward Forty-mile ranch."

For thirty two years I have suffered from
piles, both internal and external, witli all their
attendant agonies, and like many another suf
fered from hemorrhoids. All those thirty-two
years I had to crump myself to pay doctors and
druggists for stuff that was doing me little or no
good. Finally I was urged by one who had had
the same complaint, hut had keen cured by
fcrandreth's fills to try his pure. I did so, and
begsn to improve, and for the past two years I

A "NIGGER" WITH A CARD.
One afternoon a half-drunken fellow
got on one of the Louisville and Nash
ville sleeping cars bound north. When
the conductor showed him to his seat, he
found a clean, well-dressed, gentlemanly
looking colored man to be his partner in
that section, and occupying the seat lacing
his.
He at once began in a drunken fashion
to abuse the negro, accusing him of try
ing to "set up for white folks," doing the
dude act, etc., and finally got up from his
seat, declaring that he'd "be d d if
he'd set thar aud be outdone by a blasted
nigger in a high hftt."
ihe conductor, to keop the peace and
prevent any disturbance in his car, led
the indignant patron of old Kentucky
bourbon to a seat m another part of the
car. .Next morning the drunken man,
who was not a bad fellow at heart, had
sobered up considerably, and with some
remembrance of his previous misconduct
went over t the colored man's Beat and
commenced to apologize by saying he
had heenj"a little offhis baf" the evening
before, and did not mean any harm by
anything he might have said; that he
hadn't anything against the "niggers,"
and was always their friend when they
behaved themselves. So he hoped the
stranger would see that in anything that
had passed he had meant no iwrsonal
offense to him.
"That is all right, sir," Baid the colored
man, with politeness. "I saw your con
dition at once, and, of course, under the
circumstances, did not consider you re
sponsible for your acts at that time.
lour apology this morning makes the
amende honorable. Allow me" at the
same time offering his curd to his former
persecutor.
ihe drunken fellow drew back as if he
had been shot. "Look a-here, Mr. Nig
ger," he cried, in great excitement, "I
had made up my mind to stand the cut
away coat and stovepipe hat, but I'll be
denied if I can stand a nigger with a
kyard!" Harper's Magazine.

A DBAWN BATTLE.
In the last days of March, two wind
mill agents called on a NVavne county
farmer at the same time, and under the
circumstances each felt it incumbent on
him to do his level best to make a saie
One talked, and then the other talked,
and then both talked at once, and each
talked so well that the farmer could not
make up his mind which mill to take.
He hnallv said:
"Gentlemen, I see only one way to do.
You are both about of a size, and you
can come out to the barn, peel off your
coats, and go at it. Ihe one who licks
makes a sale."
The agents agreed, and in a few min
utes were hard at it. They upset the
fanning mill, smashed in the granary
door, broke the hind spring of the family
carriage, and frightened a young calf into
fits as they thrashed around, and as the
afternoon waned anil the sun began to
go down without either man giving in,
the farmer, wiio was roosting on the hay
mow for safety, called out: "Gentlemen,
the referee decides this fight a draw, and
you kin wash off the blood and take my
