An Indianapolis Elopement.

A social sensation of considerable
magnitude has just leaked out at. the
Hoosier capital. West of the city re-
sides a'ifarmer named Huffman, very
wealthy, and the father of a blooming
daughter aged II, who weighs 205
pounds and stand feet1 inch in her
stockings. The old gentleman himself
is no small potatoes" being'G- feet 81
high and weighing 225 pounds. Sarah
was beloved by grocer's clerk who was
not only poor, but, so to speak, stunted,
being small very small in comparison
with his love. Old man Huffman locked
up his girl and, swore she shouldn't mar
ry; but she vowed she would, and
Clemens at that. The house was guard
ed by members of a mounted horse
thief detective company, of which Huff
man and his brother were the principal
men. The night selected as the time
for the elopement was dark and gloomy.
Sarah left the house and found a car
riage in waiting containing Clemens
and his friend and drawn by pair of
llt6O AOIS0S. 1HCy oOOh IO1OhON ChC-
city. Driving at once to clergynian's
they were united with as much speed as
is consistent with that ceremony. II The
absenceof the girl was soon discovered,
and the mounted patrol few here and
there in haste. The fugitives were
tracked to the city and the point of des-
by the infuriated father, who
bounced into the room about 10 minutes
after the ceremony was completed, and,
with drawn revolver, demanded that
the girl return home. Clemens's friend
whipped out his gun, and, covering the
old man, remarked: Sc Drop it! Things
have changed!" The girl replied.
/" Guess not, dad!" and, pretty soon,
Huffman acquiesced in the situation.
He viii get even with the despoiler of
his home by, cutting Sarah off with a
dime instead Of the SSo,000 which fig
ured in Dayid's calculations of the risks
he took in marrying her. ~.

All for Five Cents.

Giessen, Germany, has just been the
scene of one of the most remarkable
lawsuits on record. 1t was in relation
to claim for % pfennig, about five
cents, which was made by hotel keep
er of Giessen against the Government
Telegraph Company, for oYercharge in
the matter of a message that contained
the word z2cetalhrzug q o'clock traih).
The sender of the dispatch, who was ev-
identity gentleman of the old school,
contented that the expression constitut-
ed but one word, while the telegraph
managers, acting in accordance with
the rules which govern the transmission
of cable messages from this country to.
Europe, held that it was composed of
two or three words rolled into one, and de-
imanded pay accordingly. The litigation
which followed lasted several months,
and not only brought into requisition all
the legal ability of Giessen, but also put
to the test the learning of a number of
celebrated grammarians... In the end,
however, after mature deliberation up.
on the opinions rendered by numerous
experts, the court decided that zwet-
qthrzug was single word and the tele-
graph company was obliged to refund
the five cents. We can not help regard
ing the precedent as dangerous one,
for, on the same principle, HGL6einuhr-
hda1noUere chpaeIlzug (half-past u
O'Clock Hanover fast train), must, of
course, be regarded as single word

A Royal Visitor.

A generation has passed since the
Queen of England paid visit to one of
her Ministers at his country residence.
In the year 1913 it was great event
when Victoria Travelled in state to Dray-
ton Manor, the home of Sir Robert Peel,
then Premier of England. Since then
Cabinets have come and gone, and Min
isters have been elevated and dismissed,
but not until the 18th of December,
1877, has the residence of Premier
been honored by her Majesty's presence.
.Disraeli, the author of novels, Beacons-
field, the orator and statesman, has GER
tainIy reason to consider himself highly
honored by this token of kindly regard.
Hughenden Manor, his property by mar
.riage, is visible on clear day from the
towers of Windsor Castle. 1t is de-
scti5ed as one of those large Tudor
buildings, such as is'Besso of Hardwicl1e7
scattered about the north country. 1t
is high, with gabled screens on the roof,
endless screens of endless variety, and
small windows curiously mullioned in a
horseshoe form. The Queen received
an address of welcome from the Mayor
of High Wycombe, planted a tree at
Hughenden, lunched with the Earl of
Beaconsfeld, and returned home. The
London papers, commenting upon the
visit, were careful to state that it had
no political significance or bearing upon
the war, but was only an afternoon call,
and such probably is a correct view of
it. If any thing is shown, it is only that
the Queen retains confidence in her chief
advisor
