THE SEMI EEKLY MINER. BUTTE, MONTANA MAY 80. 1855
SHE ADORED HIS MUsrAcHE.
Gentle Blue-Eyed Nellie ElOpes With .
Captivating Ex-Cowboy.

OSHKOSH, Wis, May 2S.-'Miss Nellie
Caulson has elopedv
This startling whisper was waited ON the
winds OF the morning and set all the gossips
talking to-day. The rumor proved true.
Nellie had eloped. She is 16 years old and
the daughter of Il wealthy farmer, and is
widely celebrated for her fresh, young
beauty. Charles Hamilton was an assist
ant or Mr.. CaulsOn's farm. He was good
looking, but poor. Miss Nellie won his
heart at their first meeting. The attach
ment was mutual. Nellie'sfath discovered
this and yesterday dismissed Hamilton
from his employ. 1t appears that the
young girl had frequently said she would
never marry a man unless he possessed II
beautiful blonde mustache. In this particu-
lar Hamilton was particularly favored.
The successful swain is &c years old. He
is of medium height, has a light complexion
and bewitching mustache. In colOr it is a
rich buff, droops gently and curls upward
at the ends. Hamilton never tired of toy
ing with this luxuriant a%ppendage. He was
once a cowboy and the description places a
scar on his throat, the result OF an encoun-
ter with some horned animal on the prair-
les. He has also a bullet hole in each leg
close to the knee.
Miss CaulsOn has dark hair, cut short in
front, dazzling teeth and IL superb figure.
She was deeply in love with Hamilton.
The couple vanished on the midnight train.

A. Bond Decision.

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-An interesting
question in regard to United States bonds
has been decided by Judge Durham, First
Comptroller Of the Currency. Mr.. Frennet,
of the city of Belgium, recently presented
for redemption three mutilated coupon
bonds for 81 900 each, which hesaid he had
found in Brussels in 1874. The First
Comptroller refuses to consent to their re-
demption on the ground hat the finding Of
the notes only has Il qualified interest in
them, and simply holds possession OF them
against all persons except the rightful
owner. He holds that the finder OF the
bonds has acquired no title therein as
against the owner or the Government, by
which they were issued, and cannot main
tain an action for their redemption. He
further holds in regard to the mutilated
bonds that they cannot be redeemed unless
the Treasury Department is satisfied that
the parts present I'll are all that remain OF
the bonds. or in other words, that the I'M
produced parts must be satisfactorily ac-
cOilnt2 u for.
