OhiO'S October Vote.

From the Louisville Courier-sournaf (dem)
IL Is but three weeks until the Ohio election and
1t Is well enough to caution the democrats to hinge
no hopes on carrying that state.
1t is true that some correspondents on the ground
send out confident predictions OF democratic suo-
cess; but, being In the Rdst OF the Tight they are
apt To be biased by feeling and their Judgment
blinded by local and partisan influence
1t was a recognition or the fact that Ohio n q
republican state that prevented the consideration
by, the national convention OF the claims OF that
noble old democrat, Judge Thurman The folly OF
rsking success upon the result in Ohio was gcne-

Gypsy Girls Romance.
HER SUCCESSFUL ELoPEMKNT WITH HER OWN rRrE

LOVE.
TWO GYPSY camps were recently established at
barley Park, near Baltimore. The light OF one
camp was Louisa Harrison, who is tall, graceful
and decidedly pretty. The pride and strength OF
the other camp was Isaiah Lowell, a handsome lad
OF %. The first day that Isaiah Louisa he fell
In love with her, and Louisa returned the compll-
ment They would meet under the trees and take
long walks In the surrounding country. Naturally,
these little meetings, filled with a copious inter-
change OF love words and caresSes led to the birth
OF deeper passion, and they declared their
mutual and eternal love- After this declaration their
actions grew more bod, and they made love TO
each other In open daylight The father OF the
girl seriously objected and endeavored to break up
the courtship. and his measures were so severe
that the young couple decided to elope. They car
ried their plan into execution and Louisa fled with
isaiah Tuesday night, taking the cars at Camden
station, Baltimore, for this city. Warrants were
sworn out for their arrest by the angry father and
the oicer traced the pair to this city, but was here
informed they had gone north. 1t is stated by the
Baltimore American which tells the story OF the
elopement, that Louisa's grandfather conducts
horse market In Washington. The two families
at barley Park take the affair in exactly different
lights. The LovellS are apparently lght-hearted
and happy, while the home OF the Harrisons is rem
dered sad on account OF LouSas action In this tale
OF gyDSy love
