Eloped with the Wrong Girl.

From the Seaford (Dsl.) Enterprise, Jan. skt
On large farm nearly In sight Of the quiet little
town OF Federalsburg, Nd, resides . blooming
young girl Of twenty-five summers, also her cousin
and her fathers ward Of two years her senior.
Both OF these have beaus whom their sierra old
father and uncle do not approve OF. The lover no.
and his sweetheart, unbeknown to the other par
ties. had made all arrangements TO steal on In the
stu Of the night and get married. This Was also
the plan OF the contracting parties No. 2. The lad
der was hid back Of the garden for the purpose Of
scaling the walls at the proper dine: In the b.
witching hours OF the night, when the graveyards
yawn, lover No placed the ladder 90 the window
Of girl No. 2. The night was dark just at that
time. She made her exit out OF the window and
into the arms OF her supposed knight, and was hur
ried on TO the carriage near by. Not word was
spoken as along the ramparts the old mans back

the lash was applied to the horses When they
arrived at the preachers house, who was waiting
TO tie the knot, the gallant knight then discovered
that he had got the wrong girl OF course there
were some salts and inward cuss words ana The
tug OF war came-how to get the weeping 11ri back
undiscovered. Lover No 2 met with an accident BY
running his buggy against 2 post and Carrying
away his port wheel, aud failed that night 70
arrive az the house. The OLD man has bought q

The Illinois IN.

To the Editor Of The EVENING STAR:
The Washington papers all make mistake in
regard to the situation in the Illinois legislature
the vote for q. s. Senator. The legislature of ILL.,
nois consists OF senators, 81; representatives 1885,
total 2O4. The number necessary to elect on joint
ballot Is majority Of all present and voting In
case quorum OF each house is present, and so in
dcates its presence by voting. Politically the
legislature stands: republicans, 102 democrats, 1907
independents. Streeter. senator, who is green
views, and who says ne will never vote for him;
and Speaker Haines, who does Just what he pleases
and when he pleaseS, and who claims to be engaged
in the nuda ble and seems very necessary, enter
prise OF saving the democratic party OF illinois In
his own way. A. w. K.

A Dream Strangely Verified.

sad death In Annapolis, I'D. by burning, recently,
said before she died to member OF her household
that she had had a presentment that she would
never again see ''Whlte Hail." where her sister
lived, and she believed her time on earth was short
The dream impressed Itself 50 wildly on her mind
that 1t was always before her. She appeared so
worried over what the dream had told her that she
sent for her lawyer for the purpose OF having Will
prepared, but IN the meantime her mind had be-
come dlsabuSed OF the idea that she was going to
die suddenly, dnd the legal document that would
have disposed OF an estate worth about So 600
never executed. In the absence OF Will the entire
