Inasmuch as a rule of this Southern newspaper fotbade the use of the word colored" In the sense Indicated In the dispatch, the te.egraph editor It and subpromptly stituted the word "negro" When the newspaper appeared the next morning the feelings of the relatives and friends of lhe "runaway couple may readily he Imagined.

The courts sustained him; the responsibility for the error waa fixed precisely where It belonged, and the telegraph company was compelled to pay a good round sum of money to "a flue old cultured gentleman" who had married quite Innocently "representatives of two fine old Southern families.
