Did They Elope9

A young lady Miss Green, of Palouse
City,, who has been sojouring with an
uncle near this place for some time past,
came. to the Palace Hotel last Monday
and was met in the parlor by young
man named Lopez, said to hail from Mos
COW, or some other near point in Idaho.
The meeting appeared to have been pre-
arranged, and after exchanging few
words the couple left the house and start
ed for Moscow. Not long after their de-
parture an anxious relative was on hand
inquiring the lady's whereabouts, and
from his remarks it was surmsed that the
affair was an elopement. The young
people left on horseback, and, as they
had secured pretty fair start, the elope-
ment (if such it was was undoubtly a
success, SO far as reaching Moscow and a
minister was concerned. We could learn
no further particulars, It is possible,
however, that Mr.. Lopez was not an E.
lOper.

A Rather Sad Affair.

A sad occurrence took place en- Main
st. last Tuesday afternoon. A young
lady with her arms full of bundles
emerged from Mcconnell, Chambers &
Co.'s store, when one Of the packages
fell to the sidewalk without her noticing
it. just behind her was young man
of this town (and a Pullman young man
who is not polite is not anything) and
he quickly stepped forward to pick it up
for her. Now, a bundle done up in a
piece of paper with dry-goods store
advertisement on it is apparently as
harmless as grandmother's spanking,
and there it lay as guileless as an angle
worm on plank after rain. Just as
he stopped to pick it up there was a
rustling of the paper, the twist began to
come out of the ends, and in another in
slant a bright red thing-a sort of a
cross between balloon and devil-fish
flew into the air before his eyes, and a
No. 10, thirty-six inch, double-jointed
duplex, red-headed bustle-attachment
waltzed around and gyrated and opened
and shut and boxed his ears and clawed
his face, and then fell on the sidewalk as
fat and thin as a restaurant pie; and
the young man looked as if he wished
the tail of the new comet would sweep
him from this fair country; and the
young lady came back with face that
resembled beautiful sunset on fifty
cent chrome; and she picked up the wire
continuance, and then she went toward
the east and he went toward the west,
and the sun ducked its head behind a
cloud to hide smoker, and three or four
men looked on and laughed, and doubled
themselves up in manner that would
have made a mess of green apples hang
their heads in shame. The young man
still thinks IT was a new-fangled infer
nal machine.

place it will take a circuitous route to

courage to attempt 80 miles of staging,
as it would have to if it would continue
