A ROMANCE RUINED.
chat Much Prosecuted Young
Lady in East Sedalia to Be
Married To-Day.

"The dude has returned" remarked a
prominent East Sedalia citizsn TO q BAzoo
reporter yesterday morning.
(Which dude do you refer to? ?" inquired
the reporte.
oh you know, that fellow who there
was SO much talk about the gIrl be-
ing forced TO marry, He has license and
the wedding will take place tomorrow
evening""
'Has the young lady become reconciIed
to her fate :" asked the reporter.
Apparently So" was the reply, "but /
tell you there is something wrong
there"
"What causes you 10 think 80 ?"
Because know that she hated him,
snd, we'll"
Well, wbst?" persisted the reporter.
"Oh, the wedding is bound to come of.
and do not see that anything can be
gained by agitating the matter"
"But my dear sir" urged the newspaper
man ''H there is scheme on foot to focre
this young lady into marriage dis.ssteful
10 her The villain should be thwarted in his
design"
The young gentleman smiled at the esrn-
estness of the reI orter, and said that this
pretty little romance had been spoiled by
he young lady agreeing to obey the be-
sests of her mother. Another thing" he
aid there was foot reporter came out
here and scared the girl almost to
heath BY trying TO interview her.
The statments made by her at
that time, were merely those put in her
mouth by her alleged mother. The girl is
barely more than a child and not old
10 = he q ko
man TO whom che is to be united fer life.
It is a shame"
The opinion of the gentleman engaged
In conversation with the reporter, is shared
In and endorsed by nearly all of
those conversant with the facts in
the Case as near as they can be dcveloved.
That the wouaH, who seems
30 anxious to marry off her
baby ward is her legsl guardian, rs
she was compelled TO prove before the
marriage license was issued; that the
bridegrOcm-eiect who insists on retaining
the unwilling hand, confded to his
keeping by this innocent and ignorant
maiden, has complied with the demands of
the law is also true, but out that there
is a deeplaid, diabolical plot to
crafty and subserve personal ends by the
sacri6ce OF this young life, there csn be
little doubt. The law has been complied
With, however, and it mast be allowed to
lake its curse, but if one half of the state
nents made, and MANY of them by respoD-
sible parties, can be relied upon, then the
same strong arm of the law will ere long
be called upon to annul the msrrisg
which is to-day in the sight of God a
blasphemous mockery.

Republican Remarks.

Last night at the Fourth street engine
house, in East Sedalia, Col. Cloud ad-
dr. ssed q small crowd on the issues of the
campaign. The speaker took occasion TO
warn his hearers of the horrors which
would result If the democrats got IN power,
md dolorously cast the horoscope of the fu-
ture of this country shOnld the republican
party BE- turned cut to grass. He didn't
think another war would be prscipitated
right away, but the democrats would
surely knock great holes into the con.
sIitulion and so batter sp and
defsce that instrument that Its most init
mate friends would fail to recognize 1t on
The street or anywhere else. The colonels
liver is always cut of whack when Re dis
cusses politics. and he takes very gloomy
view OF the future when contemplating the
possibility of hIs friends, the enemy, COM
ing into power Soci lily, the colonel is a
very nice gentleman but politically, he Is
sour, morose, dyspeptic and lugubriOus.

Sluggish Servants

OF the Lord might be called majority a
the ministers OF Sedslia, when their promp'
attendance upon meetings of the Minis
ter's Alliance is taken into consideration
For three consecutive weeks this body
although having many matters of impor-
tance demanding its attention, has met and
adjourned without quorum. On one oc-
casion the doors of the sanctuary where the
Alliance holds its meeting wer,
locked, and had it teen on one OF
4he public ,horoughfares, it would
net have been necessary to announce the
next day that there had BEEN no meeting
of the Minister'S Alliance. Every stranger
who passed, and the Lord Knows they were
few and far between, csme across the street
to ask the reporter, who was pacing the
walk Ike s=ntinel, eff any body was
dead"
Al the meeting, or rather at the attempt
at one, yesterday, there were present, Revs
Beatty, JONES and Van Wagner. Tn Sc
earnest brethren. after waiting in vain for
a quorum, made out list of the brethren
who ought to be present, and resolved that
they should be present at the rext meet
ipg il personal solicitation would do eny
good. In other words it was resolved that
the delinquent brethren must be, TO use a
cigurative expression, lassoed and pulled
