A STRANGE ADVENTURE ON THE PART OF A
YOUNG LApY.-A few days since woman
went to East Saginaw, in this State, and issued
handbills announcing that Mile Eilanora
Shoudon would walk a rope stretched across
Genssee street, at O'Clock p. M, Tuesday. A
great crowd assembled, but for some reasons
she failed to walk, postpoping it until the next
Gay. AT the appointed hour about 2,0GO people
assembled to witness the performance. The
lady appeared in a robe de ballet, but seemed
very timid, and after awhile, seeing her awk.
wardress. the authorities interposed and
stopped the performance On Thursday an
old gentleman came to town in a state Of great
excitement, inQuiring for missing daughter,
who answered the description of the rope
walker, and stated that she had left home sud
denly few days previous, and that her peo-
pie feared foul play The father, who is we'll
known to parties in this city, is a wealthy
business man residing in Flint. The young
lady il "a years old, is handsome, and engaged
TO be married to a wealthy Eastern man soon,
and moves IN the best circles of society. She
had never walked rope before. and what in.
duced her to undertake such a rash adventure
Is beyond conception. She was induced TO 90
home by party who was acquainted with her
father and family, and started about an nour
before her father came.-Detroit Adrcrtiser, I'd.
