A Pickle Bar Harbor Belle

WHO DoDGED HER WEDDING AND RAN OFF
AND GOT MARRIED TO A HANDSOME YOUNG
NAN.
A great sensation was created in societ,
circles in Hartford, Conn. Wednesday, by
the announcement that Honora, Youngest
daughter Of Rev. DR.. Edwin HARDWOOD, rec
tor of Trinity church. and one of the most
prominent citizens in the city, had eIoped,
married rich New Yorker named Truman
Hemingway and sailed for Europe. Besides
the elopement the sensation is magnlhed by
the fact that invitations bad been sent out
and extensive preparations for the young
lady's marriage in Trinity church next We'd
nesday. TO Mr.. Pruyn. son Of the late Hon.
John V. l.. Pruyn of Albany, New York, a
millionaire. 4 number of valuable presents
had already been received at the Harwood
residence in anticipation of this event. Miss
Hsrwood met Pruyn and Hemingway at
Bar Harbor, year ago and both became
suitors for her hand. Soon after she be-
came engaged to Mr.. Pruyn. who, II is said,
was worth million clear, the gossip being
that she preferred Hemingway hut chose
Pruyn because Of pecuuiary advantages.
Sometime after this the engagement was
broken off He, however. followed the Har-
wood family to Europe, where they had gone
to more completely estrange the couple. and
there the engagement was renewed. Their
marriage was set for Oct. !, and up to We'd

III. american
Some time ago saw an article in the
columns Of the AMERICAN headed special
correspondence and signed Alabama" Said
article made special reference to Point H4r-
Dor, in Sullivan, Maine. and gave a very
fine description Of the place and of the bay
and islands that make the harbor. In my
boShood days | well knew the place. so il is
not to be wondered at, that when read Mr..
"Alabama's' article, | was led to exclaim, at
is indeed lovely place" When leisure
m ,ments come to me, often, in thought,
trAve. back TO the old familiar scenes in and
about Frenchman's Bay and, thinking of
Point Hsrbor, ! have often wondered why
pleasure and health seekers pass it by al
most unnoticed, while Bar Harbor, Hancock
Point and Lamoine are in the very prime
OF their glory as watering places. Perhaps
it is because it is 50 inaccessible to the
travelling public; but il now seems to me
| that the remedy for this is near at hand, for

be extended to Calais or Passport. Then

few cases Of the disease appear in the
manufacturing centers. The interior
cnce with business interests of the State
would be of a very serious nature. In
corporations where large number of
operatives are employed there would be
a general panic which might prove a
public calamity very far reaching and
disastrous. In view of the possible dan

that the people of the State and espec-
