LOVE LAUGHS AT FErrERs.
One Of TayIOr's Prettiest Girls EIOpes
With n Gallant Miner.

"Come fly with mc-if thou hast known
No other flame, nor falsely thrown
A gem away that thou hadst sworn
Should ever In thy heart be wern."
About IL o'clock last Sunday night,
when fair Luna stood high up in the
heavens and cast its mellow light on
this terrestrial sphere, two ardent low
ers might be seen, arm in arm, wend-
ing their way towards Chinatown.
Soon after a buggy, hitched to a pair
ofTom O'Nsils's blooded stesds. went
rafting down the street, and the twain
got in. The horses heads we're turn
ed toward the east-toward that land
where marriage is made easy-where
licences are unknown and age is no
barrier to wedlock- where cruel pa
rients" have no veto and Glove young
dream is hampered by no earthly
barrier.
Rapidly as comets run
To tn embraces of the sun,
Fleeter than the starry brands
Flung at night from angel hands,
The team with its anxious occupants
was driven to Osceola, ond thence
through the tortuons mountain passes
that lead to Frisco, Utah, where, il is
presumed, the fear of pursuing nems-
sis, in the shape of irats mammas or
big brothers, ceased, and the cordian
knot was tied that .'no mar Cor wo-
man either shall put %asunder.e
The names of the parties to this ro-
mantle episode are James Burns, as
gallant a lad as ever polished the head
of a drill, and Miss Annie Parkinson,
than whom a fairer lassie never bloom
ed in this sagebrusb land.
The News extends congratulations
TO the young couple, and hopes the
almost usual forgiveness will be in
order, aud God bless you, my chill
dren' wind up this, Taylor's first ro-
mantle elopement. So may it be.

WHY do not these papers which have
been so industriously stating the great
injuries to trade, the delay to which
business men would be subjected because
the Pacific Steamship Companies would
not have the carriage of the mails to
Australia, show the same diligence in
stating that the steamship companies
have agreed to carry the mails on the
terms proposed by the Postmaster
General9 They tried bluff game and
the partisan papers backed the arrogant
steamship companies in their attempt to
bleed the government, because it furn-
ished an opportunity to find fault with
the administration. Now it transpires
the companies have given in and the
terrible state of affairs which were to
result are averted. But these papers do
not show any promptness in heralding
the good news. There is no editorial
comment and the escape seems to be OF
so little moment that the announcement
is made without a headline and even
showed into an obscure corner. Probably
these papers fear that the Joy at the
deliverance from danger might prove
fatal unless the news were broken gently.

win the confidence of the people. They
have done an immense amount of impor

While a boy in England, he was riding

picket fence and he was brought home
to die. He recovered, but suffered great
pain in the injured place. He came to
this country and had inflammation of the
lungs. Again his case was given up as
hopeless, but he recovered, but had a
complication of diseases which kept him

was given up for dead, but always reviv-

of Preller will attract great deal of at
tention because Of the singular defense
set up, that Preller was not murdered,
and that he was party to placing the
body in the trunk so that the life insur-
ance companies with which he was heav-
lily insured, might be defrauded. This
would necessitate collision with the
persons for whose benefit his life was
insured, and such being the case, the
identification of the body by them will
be looked upon with suspicion. The
body has beer exhumed and Is said to
be in an excellent state of preservation.

MAXWELL has changed the theory OF
his defense and now hints that he killed
Preller by accident. He was III the
habit of administering hypodermic H.
iections for Preller and administered
chloroform in that way at the st. Louis
hotel, but gave an overdose. The fellow
does not seem to realize his danger and
acts as if he is insane. That probably
will be the defense if lawyer OF any
ability should be assigned Maxwell. He
seems to be in the best of humor but has
made many damaging admissions.

The anti-prohibition society 0

The prohibition society of Mil
yankee has issued an appeal to all friends
of personal liberty calling upon them to
fight the attempt to raise the license
above 5000 in Milwaukee. An agent is
to be sent out to solicit membership to
the society. Milwaukee has as much
chance to raise the license as it has to be
transferred to Paradise. If the law would
allow that city to totally abolish saloon
license, it would be done. The anti
prohibition society need have no fears
and will find it wholly unnecessary to dc
any work.

MARSHAL, the discoverar of gold in
California, died lately in that state in
want. He went to California in 1916,
and himself and partner built mill.
While digging in the race he found a
large nugget of gold, and after subject
ing it to such tests as he could apply,
mounted a horse and went to a camp
where proper tests could be made
When the real nature of the metal be-
came known there was a rush to Mar
shalI's neighborhood. His property was
seized, his claims jumped, and as the
miners had suspicion that he was a
lucky finder, he was driven off every
claim he located He was reduced to
extreme want and died in that condition.
