New York, Nov. 4.-Reliable information has

banker, of the runaway marriage of Miss Mary
E. Willard of Washington, D. G, and WIN.
Parton, patent lawyer of that city. Miss Will
lard was to be married to Frank Simpson of
Kansas City. son of the banker, and the wedding
was to have been on grand scale, about 800
invitations having been sent out for the recep-
tion. Tue trosseau was purchased in Europe
and elaborate jewelry in this city. Miss Willard's
father is on his way across the ocean. George
E. Simpson, when spoken to by Mail and Ex-
press reporter, said: Il received a telegram from
the young lady's mother stating that Mary was
married yesterday. am without knowledge
from any member of the family. Miss Willard
and my son were acquainted for three years;
there has been no intimation her part that
she desired to break the engagement;
in fact, when the financial difficulty
occurred with our firm iu this city during the
recent panic, and an offer was made her to
cancel the engagement, she experienced the
strongest devotion for my son; she had often
been at my house, and an sfectionate intimacy
appeared to exis: between my daughter and
Miss Willard, who seemed to be a most exem-
plary young lady. My son takes the matter
philosophically, and considers it far better that
he should have found her want of affection for
him now than at later stage in life. At
present he is in Orange, N. j.. but will soon
return to Kansas City,

Kentucky's ScOurge.

LOUISVILLE, KY., Nov. 3.-A Courier Journal
staff correspondent, investigat ing the plague in
eastern Kentucky, sends the following from Mt.
Pleasant tonight: The further travel into this
p!ague-infested country the more horrible be-
comes the situation and the more I wonder that
the entire population or at least that portion OF
it who have been attacked by the prevailing
epidemic, have not been swept into the world
beyond. am able to write clearly today after
conversation with men from all parts of the
county, who are here today from distance
ranging all the way from five to forty miles, to
SECURE supplies and have grinding done, the
water mills in this county, as in most of the
mountain counties, are useless because of the
scarcity of water and the steam mill here is
patronized by the families living far and near.
From all sources of information I am able to
make an estimate which may be relied upon as
being as nearly correct as any that could be
made without personal visit to every house in
the county. There have been in Harlan county
since the latter part of August over twenty
deaths; of these at least one half died by fux or
cholera infantum, superinduced by the use of
impure water. There have been about 200 cases
of sickness known to be 1ux and q large amount
of illness from other causes, especially among
Children such as whooping cough, bronchitis,
summer complaint, etc.
