ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.

A correspondent, in announcing the
death of Mrs. Marie Matilda Kibby, wife
of Chauncey II. Miles, resident of this
city, in Cleveland, short time since,
calls to mind a few incidents connected
with her love and marriage that smack
somewhat of the romantic, not to say
sensational. Her parents were well
10 do, respectable people, residing
in the State of New York, and
surrounding their daughter with all
the luxuries and comforts that
heart could desire. She was apparently
happy and contented at home until 1862,
when she CHANGED to meet the person who
afterward became her husband. Being
of pleasing disposition, and withal fair
looking, he gained her affections, which
ripened into love. She formed resolu-
ton to leave her parents, her happy and
luxurious home, and elope with the man
of her choice-with whom she was but
slightly acquainted.
They did not leave her home together
Miles starting some hours ahead of her.
He went to Cleveland, thence to Toledo,
from there to Fremont, where he met the
young lady. She informed him that her
brother was in pursuit, and to thwart de-
lection he procured for her a suit of male
attire, which she donned, going from Ere
mont to Toledo, where he found employ
ment and she went to peddling oranges
on the street. and actually sold her brother
one as he met her, he little dreaming that
the little boy of fourteen summers was
the sister whom he was in search of.
From Toledo the pair went to Nash
vile. Miles, being an engineer, soon OBJ
tanned a Locomotive Ito run, from the lat
ter place to Chattanooga, on the Nash
vile and Chattanooga railroad, the girl
being his fireman. They had worked on
the road but short time before he re-
Ceived wound by the rebels firing into
the train. He was taken to the hospital,
she following and nursing him until he
had sufficiently recovered to travel to
Cleveland. Their next appearance was
at the MadOc gold mines, in Ca
NADIA, they having caught the gold fever
which was raging at that time, and &C
cordingly took up the life of miners. 1t
being a wet season nothing was done in
the mines, and they returnedt to Cleveland.
The excitement, hardships and vicissi-
tudes she had endured were too much;
a fever ensued, and, after a short illness,
she was borne to that home from which
no traveller returns.-Gr0nd Rdpids

Fine watering Place.

Grayson Springs, Kentucky, is without
exception, the finest watering place in the
State, and the proprietors are receiving, as
they deserved, large run Of visitors. IN
til recently, this famous retreat, has not
been easy of access, but by the completion
to that point of the Elizabethtown and
Paducah Railroad, visitors now have a con-
venient means of reaching the Springs.
Many improvements have been made dur
ing the present season, and it is intended
to so enlarge the premises as to make room
for the accommodation of thousand guests
by next season. On the premises there
are upwards of one hundred different va
reties of water and many Of the Springs
are equal in medicinal quality, if not su-
perior, 10 any in the country. The pro-
prietors, the Van Meter Brothers and MIR.
Clarkson are enterprising, liberal minded,
and popular gentlemen, and are always on
the alert to make their guests comfortable.

rhe CentraI baptist Church.

We notice that the edifice of the Central
Bapti5t Church, on south Cherry street,
hes recently received substantial and i'm
portaDt repairs. The work on this church.
which has never been finished, was begun
before the war, and through neglect the
woodwork of the building had become very
much damaged. The old, rugged pavement
IN front has given place to a smooth brick
pavement running the entire length of the
lot. The root, cornice, doors and windows
have been handsomely painted.
When this Church is completed it will
be quite an ornament to that part of the
city. We understand that these improve
ments have been accomplished through the
indefatigable exertions of the ladies of the
congregation, who raised most of the
means in their late strawberry and ice
cream festivals. The noble ladies deserve
the sympathies and cooperation of every
good citizen in their earnest and efficient
efforts 10 relieve their church of indebted
ness and to beautify and adorn it as place
suitable for worship. We most heartily
second the laudable efforts now being put
forth by these Christian ladies to make
their house of worship both beautiful and
attractive.
We sincerely hope the day is not far in
the future when our city shall be able to
boast of the same beauty and symmetry in
the architecture of her church edifces that
she can in many of her other public build
ings.
