Extensive preparations had been
made for the wedding next week. Rev.
John J. Reed. pastor of the Walnut
Hills n. p. church, was to have per-
formed the ceremony. A magnificent
reception was announced to take place
at the residence of Uncle John Simp-
kinsOn after the nuptial knot had been
tied. The friends of both the contract
ing parties anticipated a notable Occa-
sion, and the runaway of the promised
bride will take everybody by surprise

capturing the beautiful girl, is

have been thrown frequently together.
1t is said that the young woman has Wis
tied often at the residence of Mrs. Hugh
Cameron, sister-in-law of Walter. Her
husband was killed on the Lexington
race course about three years ago. At
the house of Mrs. Cameron the in
timacy between Walter and Miss
Eva began. They have been no
ticed on the street together, and sew
eral people remarked that it was
strange that Miss Simpkinson should 90
with Walter Cameron when she was so
soon to be married TO Charlie Judge.
Still. no one expected the denOuemenf.
Henry II. SimpkinSOn, the father of the
runaway miss, has been married three
times, and there nave been children by
each wife. 1t has been developed that
Mrs. SimpkinsOn has not treated her
stepchildren as kindly as she might
have done, and the proud spirit of Eva
would not permit such authority to be
exercised over her. The young lady
for several weeks has been almost con-
stantly at the residence of her sister-in-
law on Price hill.
SHE LEFT HER FATHERS HOUSE
on Price hill some time ago and lived
for a while with her grandfather, John
Simpkinson, on Walnut Hills. So far as
can be aScertained none of her relatives
were let into the secret of her intention
to marry Cameron. She was OStenSibly
making preparations fol her wedding
next week, although the fact that she and
Walter Cameron were seen so much to-
gether caused great amount of gossip
among her friends. Mr.. Judge not being
here to watch the movements of his
prospective bride and having confidence
in her fidelity. never dreamed that she
was in love with another. His surprise
and shame when he hears the news can
only be imagined. The friends of Simp-
kinson all say that she is good girl,
not inclined to be wild, but very obSti-
nate and determined. 1t is believed that
her union with Cameron was a Sudden
impulse taken on the spur of the mo
ment. Charley Judge has been waiting
on her for years. They were
CHILDREN AND SCHooLMATES To-
Ia.
When their engagement was an
nOunced it occaSiOned no surprise. but
their mutual friends considered it 4
happy match. The SimpkinSOn family
could have no objections to Mr.. Judge,
while his people were pleased with Miss
SimpkinsOn. The Simpkinsons are
among the beSt-known and highly
respected families in Cincinnati. They
are leading MethOdistS. and are
considered the pillars of the
churches to which they belong. About

a woman of bad repute. He was dis
owned by his relatives for his course.
A sister of Mrs. Cameron was married
only week ago in elegant style at her
grandfather's and has just returned
from the honeymoon to be present at
Eva'S marriage to Charles Il. Judge
next Wednesday. The SimpkinsOns
discouraged their daughter from receiv-
ing the attentions OF Walter Cameron,
and tried to convince her thrt it was
highly
IMPROPER FOR HER To WITH HIM
in view of the near approach of matri-
mony. How well she needed their adj
vice the, sequel shows. There is very
little chance that Mrs. Cameron can
reconcile herself with her parents. who
are Frustrated and indignant at her
course. They declare that she has by
her conduct lost all claim upon their
love and prstection. Mr.. Cameron is an
attorney i'll the office of j. j. Glidden,
ana mas confidence i'll his ability to
provide for his wife. Tho pair will re-
side for the present at the residence of
his sister-in-law, on Price Hill. In the
