ly-built young fellow, with short and
wavy hair and efleminate- looking

great energy and considerable force.
Wesley went TO the casino and COM

kitchen, white with rage, and attack
ed the cook. Mr.. Dick was called in,
and then it was found that the sup

wife. They had been married but a
short time and were greatly devoted
to each other. AS there was no suit
able place for Mrs. Martin, she had
to cut off her hair, put on mems cloth
ing, and take position in the casino
so as to be with her husband during
the summer. Her hair was long
heavy and naturally wavy. The dis
covery of her sex caused great excite
ment among the guests of the New
port and Mrs, Martin was so abashed
that she and her husband left to-day.

The girl is pretty brunette aged
twenty-five, and Claycey is a red
headed and not handsome young man
of twenty-one. They got aboard the
train early, bound for the place to
get married. as the passengers were
not slow in finding out. Shortly af-
ter the train started the young man
suddenly left the side Of the eXpectant

corner of the coach and proceeded tc
inform him that he had arrived at the
conclusion that he did not want to
get married. He asked the passen,

which he could get out of the dilem'

get on the southbound train where

of the young lady. The passenger
promised to give the deserted CIR

away before the young lady discov-
cred his desertion, and at the next
station she left the train, refusing in.
dignantly the offer of the escort and
money for her return. She then pro-

direction her recent lover had'taken.
She reached Patterson to-day, hay-

went at once to the store in which
Claycey clerked, and asked him pleas
antly to step outside. The result OF
the conversation was that he joined
her an hour afterward, and the two
got on the train for another direction.
They reached IIagerstown this e,en-
ing and were married, 1t is envel-

that the parents of the groom object
