not until another young man, and later a
group OF men, in rapid pursuit appeared on the
scene that the villagers commenced to suspect
that they were witnessing an elopement. The
young couple in the lead were John d. Mumma,
mechanic, and Miss Emma Z. Bown the daughter
of Mr. Louis F. Bown. well-known politician
and ex-member of the Legislature. As the flying
lovers reached the outskirts OF the village. about
SEQ yards in advance of their pursuers, Mumma
was seen toplace her gently on her feet
Then Selling her hands, they ran swiftly
through gate into field and started across the
country in the direction of Baltimore After run
ming rapidly in this manner for about three min

in his arms and continued the flight. BY thus
economizing the girls strength, they..succeeded
in keeping ahead of Charles BOwn and his father
who were in pursuit, until they reached the house

and drove rapidly off, despite the shouts of the
Messrs. Bown. Arriving in Baltimore they were

sutton who had appeared on the scene should
have their daughters hand. She was finally re-
leased, but kept under strict surveillance and not
allowed TO go anywhere than to church, except
under the watchful care of her brother or a mem
Der OF the family. Day before yesterday the
brother, who had been guarding his sister. con-
cluded that it would be safe for him TO again do
some mechanical work, and in company with his
father, went to where the latter is building some
houses on Greenmount avenue. The moment
long looked for by the imprisoned girl had
at last arrived, and without stopping
to secure any extra clothing and bareheaded,
Miss Emma left her parents house and sought
refuge in the home of a mutual friend in the VII
lage. Mr.. Mumma was communicated with and
Joined his bride. They started to walk to the
house of their friend where the road wagon
awaited them, when the shouts OF young Down

forgiveness.

horrible calumny came to his ears when he was
mourning the death of his wife, when he was
weeping over her new-made grave. Again he
shrieked with pain, as il a bruised and wounded

THE MONTANA COWBOY.

His Pleasant Method of Forcing His Ac-
st. Paul Globe.
II will never forget an experience Of mine in
Montana a little over two years ago. said Brake
man Schultz, of the Northern Pacific Yesterday.
as he was standing at the union depot.
"There were Andrews, the conductor; Wyley,
the engineer Colby, the fireman, and myself
running No. passenger on the Montana divis
ion, and one night about dusk we were getting
out of Miles City when red light was seen by
the engineer and he stopped the train Just
he stopped about a dozen COW boys, logged up
in full uniform, each with brace of
revolvers in his belt got into the
coaches, while few more guarded the
engine. I knew trouble was coming as soon as
saw them get on, and took seat among the
passengers. The conductor did not appear at
first to realize that anything was wrong, but
went to the forward part of the coach to see
what was up when half dozen of the buckskin-
clad boys grabbed him and set him upon the
coal box. He protested, but the boys paid no
attention other than to tell him not to move a
finger, as they were going to shoot the heels of
his boots off. / rather enjoyed the fun though
ticed, but they didn't before the conductor was
short the heels Of his boots He was white as
snow fake but he held up bravely, fearing a
miscalculated shot They then caught me and
tied me and passenger back to hack and set us
over seat, and then commenced betting among
themselves which would pull the other
over The stakes were put up and then
two of them got progs and began touching as up
with them. The fellow | had pitted against me
was n Swede, and neither of us had any show to
pull the other fellow over; then / resorted to
stratagem. and when they gave the Swede a
prog and he jumped about foot l pulled hard
and he came flying over the seat and he went
go far over that he near broke my back. We
were loosened then, and they took the Swedes
boots off and stood him on his head, and then
| played the bastinado on the soles of his feet
Well, you'd a. died laughing to hear that poor
bows and although my legs We're @ s smartins % from
some lances I got, | just roared. After they
thought they had done enough mischief they
shot out the lights and left the train, firing a
salute as they departed. Not MANY of the boys
know about it. for the conductor paid the Swede
fivedolar bill to keep quiet, and he set 'em up
to me pretty lively all along the line"

'The Treacle Bibles The same passage being
rendered in the Douay Version, rs there no
rosn In Gilead7' that has been nicknamed the
'Rosin Bible An edition Of the Authorized
Version, published in Oxford in III, is known
as THE Vinegar Bible" a name given it because
or printers blunder In rendering the title TO
Luke Xxx THE Parable OF the Vinegar" in
stead Of THE Parable of the Vineyard The
worst nickname of all is that given to an edition
of the Authorized Version printed in London by
Barker & Lucas in 1881. In this edition the all
important negative was omitted from the Sew
enth Commandment Naturally this is called
s'The Wicked Bible" Other mistakes, grave or
gay, have been made in different editions of the
Bible by printers; as, for instance, where Paul is
made to say, Purge your conscience from good
works. instead Of from dead" works; and
again, our Saviours words in the beatitudes.

read-for the special comfort, we suppose, OF
Office eseekers-"Blessed are the place makers

prosecuted me without cause.'
The standard Bible of the Catholic Church is a
revised edition of what is known as the Latin
Vulgate. This version of the Scriptures was
translated from the original languages by
Jerome, at the beginning of the fifth century.
Jerome's production it first appep red, differed
so materially IN some points from the Vetus
Italia, the version then accepted by the church,
that It's author was charged with heresy and fa.s-
ifcation. Even great and good as st.
Augustine joined in this charge for time.
Gradually, however, the work gained in favor,
and in two hundred years after Jerome's death
it became the universally received version of the
church. H. IT.

The Easter Guest.

knew Thou vert coming o Lord divine,
felt in the sunlight a softened shine,
And murmur OF welcome [ thought | heard
In the ripple of brooks and chirp of bird;
And the bursting buds and the springing grass
Seemed TO be waiting to see Thee pass;
And the sky, and the sea, and the throbbing sod
Pulsed and thrilled to the touch of God.
knew Thou vert coming. 0 Love divine,
To gather the worlds heart up to thine;
knew the bonds of the rock -hewn grave
Were riven, that, living Thy life may save.
But, blind and wayward, could not see
Thou vert coming to dwell with me, zen me
And my heart o'erbul 1ened with care and sn
Had no fair chambers to take Thee in:
Not one clean spot for Thy foot to tread,
Not one pure pillow to rest Thy head;
There nothing to offer-no bread, no wine,
No oil of joy in this heart of mine
And yet the light of Thy kingly face
Illumed for Thyself small dark place,
And | crept to the spot by Thy smile made sweet,
And the tears came ready to wash Thy feet.
Now let nae come nearer, Lord divine,
Make in my soul for Thyself shrine
Cleanse, till the desolate place shall be
Fit for a dwelling, dear Lord, for Thee.
Rear, if Thou wilt, throne in my breast,
Reign will worship and serve my guest.
While Thou art in e-and in Thee l abide
No end can come to the Easter-tide.

The very latest and oldest fashionable wrinkle
in Easter souvenirs is the sendingof live rabbits
Yesterday in Griggs conservatories, in a sunny
corner twenty baskets We're grouped. each con-
tanning half dozen rabbits some of them yet
with their mother. During the day fashionable
ladies kept coming, selecting the pets and giving
the addresses to which they were to be sent
One was to go to Newport, another to Old Point
Comfort and two to New York. One was sent
inside an open h;N, which in turn was in box
with Stats on the top. They were generally sent
by express, but in one or two cases special train
messengers were employed to deliver them.
Nests were made of cotton and cabbage, lettuce
and other green stuff put inside for bunny to
eat. Small honses were provided for Them
though in some cases they were sent in little
wicker hampers A pretty ribbon was tied
around the rabbits neck and sometimes the out
side of the hamper was decorated with cluster
of flowers. All the rabbits are white and pink
cared. These curious Easter gifts have been
sent into some of the most fashionable houses in

A Tribute to Mrs. Mackay.

Undertones in San francisco Chronicle.
suppose Emma Nevada owes great deal of
her present success if not her present position,
to Mrs. Mackay. Ie we are proud of our little
prima donna, | think we ought to be prouder of
Mrs Mackay-a lady who has never forgotten
the Pacific slope while she has taken the fore
most position in Partisan society; who has
devoted her millions to help struggling Ameri-
cans, and in bearing the standard of American
taste and American ideas into the most exclu-
sive and artistic circles in the world. When we
look around San Francisco and see how little
our mllionaires do for us, how petty
and miserable are their ideas as to the
value and use of money, we can only regret that
they have it. Mrs Mackay has done many qui-
city charitable things for people and institutions
in San Francisco although she may live in Paris.
No poor or needy American, especially from this
part of the country, who finds himself in Paris,
applies to her in vain. She is princess in her
hospitality, queen in her charities, and it is
something that we may be proud Of that the
American lady who holds abroad the highest
place, not only among her own people. but
among foreigners, never forgets that she is from
the Western shore. If all that Mrs. Mackay
has done for charity were noted, and very little
of IL gets into print, could hardly find admira-
tion high enough for her.
