A JUNE ELOPEMENT.
\ ~. Louis Young Man and His Hand
some Stepmother.

The career of an clipping St Louis
couple was brought to a sudden end in
this city to-day by the appearance
upon the scene of the wronged hus-
band, who caused an interruption to
the blissful life of strangelymatch-
ed couple.
The case is an unusual one, and has
a number of striking features. Six
months ago a family consisting of the
father, John 5. Weber. u tanner. an
only son, u years old, and daughter
still younger, lived in a pretty cottage
. in the suburbs of St Louis The wife
and mother had been dead some years,
and it had become a matter of general
understanding that the father was to
remain a widower
Three months ago, to the surprise
and CONSERVATION of the SON and
daughter, the head of the house an
nounced his determination to take into
him a second wife Objections were
raised but they were of no avail-and
as last resort the young people deter
mined to wage a war of determination
against the woman However, when
shel came as the wife and step-mother
she was found to be young and hand
some, and the son changed his tactics
by falling in love with the lady. The
attachment was mutual as latter de
velopments showed, and on Tuesday
last during the temporary absence Of
Webber, the couple eloped
They Were traced to Chicago, and
from that city to milwaukee, Here
they were found occupying apartments
on Wells street, in disreputable local
ity, and the son and wife We're faced
by the wronged father and husband.
An amicable agreement was finally
arranged, and the woman will return
to st. Louis with her husband, while
the son goes to Chicago, there to en-
gage in business. The party left for
Chicago at IL 15 this morning

Some Maine Bear Stories.

Bears are getting so intentionally
numerous around Moosehead lake as
to alarm even the old Indians old
other settlers by their frequent bold
ness and surprising cunning. The
other night, members Of the family
of George c. Luce, living about two
miles northwest from the head of the
lake and near the west branch of the
Penobscot river, We're aroused by John
Abbo, who had heard an unusual
noise in the pantry, and coming down
stairs they saw light shining from
Mr. Lucr'S bedroom a large bear help
ing himself to family provisions. Alb
bo'S guG was standing near the pantry
door and within a foot of the bear,
which unconcernedly watched the APP
proach of Abbo, while he tested the
various articles within his reach All
this was going on while Mr. and Mrs.
Luce slept, obliyious to the intrusion,
within a feet of the scene Abbo
finally succeeded in reaching his gun,
when the beast retreated through the
pantry window, which he had smash
ed on getting into the house. Mitchell
Francis, an Indian sleeping in an adj
joining bed, was aroused by the break
ing glass, and he, together Wi tn Able

Mitchell Francis discovered "A bear in

Three shots killed him. II G weighed
