A PERSISTENT LOVER.
It ia Said He Wrote q Marriage
Notice Which Was
Not True.

Post-Dispatch.
Mr.. Samuel Il. Stone, young man well
known i'm st. Louis society; has well earned
the reputation of a most persistent lover,
and one who would not take a refusal. Fer
some time il has been an open secret that
he was paving his attentions to Miss Lilly
Woodbridge, who lives with Mrs. Nave, on
Locust street. He hsd been until recently
a regular caller. Several months ago, IT
will be remembered, his ardor in that di-
rection led him To a bout at hsticufis on
the street. He and Peter Nicholson. lr,
had been visiting at the Nave residence,
one evening, and something that MIR. Stone
said offended Mr.. Nicholson The parties
took their leave at the same time. and met
again under the shadow of DIR. Iudors
church, each accompanied by friend The
two young fellows stripped OF their coats,
and a lively fight ensued. Mr.. Stone got
The worst of the fight, but each gentleman
bears the marks Of the battle. Since That
time Mr.. Stone has not signalized his de
yotion i'm any way until recently. Ii seems
that Miss Woolri"ge had not reciprocaied
his affections as warmly as he could wish.
He set about devising means TO change this
STATE. of affairs and the plan he adopted WAS,
to say the least, very questionable one
Several DAYS ago a notice was received al
the Globe Democrat Office, stating that
Miss Lily Woodbridge, lady well known
etc, would soon be united in marriage To
Mr.. Sam Stone. A yequest was ms tn.
the notice he published in to.m"rr"~ :
paper. The society reporter OF the 'iioh
Democrat was doubtful about the aii'
nOuncement.
A call was made upon Mrs Nave, and
the written notice was shown her The
| lady looked 1T il a moment and sad
"Why, this is in Mr.. Stones own hand
writing
us the statement true ?" she was asked
"No, not NJ all" said Mrs. Nave. This
| is very curious thing TO do. There ]:
/ absolutely no truth In the statement"
Mrs. Nave said that Mr.. Stone had
visited the house frequently, and was look
ed upon as a very pleasant caller Lately
his visits had been less frequent. Shs
further stated that the young gentleman
was .sardcd as a friend, and, and only In
that light nv both Miss Woodbridge and
herself. Miss Lilly was still very young
her health had not been good, and al
though she had made her debut. she die
not think of marriage at all just vet. The
action of Mr.. Stone is considered by Car
sons and his friends express surprise tina,
