The judge in the circuit court helu tnat as long as they had been mir- i ried in a State which does recogniz the union of white and negro, th! the law in this State can scarcels ioperate against either party when lbeld in accordance with the property laws of the State. He then instruct- ¢d the jury in its verdict but the piaintift has taken it into the higher court. It is understood there is no pres- ent law to explicitly cover the point and Judge Wolfe had to invoke En- |giish law in putting it before the Jury. i | i CHEAP—At the second-hand store, 'good {ron beds from $1.50 up gprings $1.50 and up, dressers $. and up, chairs 60c to $1; also have stoves, tables, cots, rockers, cte., one gectional bookcase, good as new; also one porch swing.
