Miss Ida Taylor, eldest daughter of
John Taylor, residing at Seventh and
Main streets, Is Miss. Ida Taylor no
longer. She eloped Saturday evening
win Mr.. Campbell, who lived within
two blocks OF her fathers house. The
facts in the case are rather sensational.
Tho npr ahont
two months. A few weeks after Camp
bell became acquainted with Miss Tay-
ior her mother forbade him the house, or
20 converse with him in any way, owing
to the fact or her having found some
thing In his family history which
would not bear close inspection
and which we Will not mention. From
that time nntif the elopement they met
clandestinely. On the night Of the elope-
ment. Mrs. Taylor was al her husbands
store, on Scott and Fifth streets, leaving
her two daughters at home; the youngest
had company, and Miss Ida seemed to
be left to herself. About half-past
eight hack containing Campbell
drove up .o the door, upon which
all tho parties in the house came
out to ascertain what the excitement
was. Campbell was trying to persuade
Miss Taylor to leave with him, and on

fused. He asked her in their presence,
s'Are you going?" She was standing
behind her sister at the time, and she
told him no. The hack was then driven
of, and all parties entered the house.
Miss Ida's sister, knowing her mothers s
wishes, had all of the doors locked. A
few minutes alter Miss Ida started out
to the yard to get some water, and
having on neither hat nor cloak her
sister suspected nothing. She was
heard opening the cistern box, and that
was the last OF her. 1t is supposed
when she answ cred 'tNoa' to CampbelPs
question, she made some sign, which he
understood, and that she ran around to
his house when she went after the water.
ALL Of this took an hour at leaeJ, and 1T
seems strange Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor were
not notified. as could easily have been
done, Well. the old adsge, Glove
laughs So, seems to be verified again.

Some of our friends desire to- know
why those persons who are continually

A young lady crossing the railroad
bridge last night thought that all the
wind in the West was centered ON that
particular SPOT. Some gallant young
gents assisted her to make the passage,
Tor which they received her best thanks.
We are reliably informed by several
gentlemen that came over ON the railroad
bridge last night that the storm made
that structure shake like an aspen leaf
We fear the structure will not last az
long as the London bridge.
a woman doing business on Ringgold
street complains of the loss of several
customers from the simple fact that Q
physician known to be waiting on small.
box patients has been in the habit Of
hitching his horse and buggy in front Of
her establishment.
The Short-line Railroad should have 0
watchman placed at the Bellevue street
crossing. The rate Of speed OF trains
is greatly increased as they approach
the bridge, and the school SO close is the
cause of much anxiety to parents having
children goingto to school.

OF enlarging the church. As some O
