BoUamr OUT nv HIS RIVAL
Cupid Makes . Happy Termination
Of Peculiar Rom nnco in Lowell.


OF = Peculiar Romance I'm Lowell.
A Lowell Mass. special says: Cupid
has seldom brought about more curious
comedy than Lowell has just seen. The
heroine is the daughter Of one Of the old
residents OF Bethel, VT, who was forced
to mortgage his home to pay debts con-
tracted during his illness. The money
was advanced by the young man who is
now his son-in-law. But the daugh-
ter, disliking the idea OF being under
obligations to any one, determined to
come to Lowell and try to earn enough
money to pay the mortgage. The Bethel
MORTGAGE followed her with letters, and
she regularly correspondent with him.
Meanwhile steady young cabinet-maker
who boarded at the same house with her
fell in love with her, and in course OF
time she accepted him and all arrange
ments were made for bemarriage except
the application for the certificate. The
young cabinet-maker engaged q cottage
in one of the pleasantest streets, and
had new furniture made for it.
Just at this time the young man from
Bethel appeared on the scene and, armed
with letters from the girls parents and
his own persuasive eloquence he induced
the young woman to change her mind
and accompany him to her former home.
He agreed to transfer the mortgage held
by him 20 her father and to buy and have
transported to Bethel the furniture with
which his rival expected to adorn his
new homo. 1t required considerable
nerve for the young woman to tell her
afIianced that she was going to disappoint
him, but she did. He received the in
formation in a philosophical manner, and
when he remarked that the furniture
would be an elephant on his hands she
requested him 10 send the bill TO her fu-
ture husband and it would be paid for.
When the bridal party left for Bethel the
young cabinet maker was at the station
to wish them prosperity.

causing breaks to be large. The prices
obtained are excellent and all the stock
offered was quickly taken.
While unloading tierces of leaf tobacco
from dray to-day at the Virginia Mid
land depot the driver for Pemberton &
Penn drove too close to The railroad
track, when one of the tierces was
knocked from the dray by the engine of
