BOund to Re Married.

The Brenham Banner reports a case in which a young lady of Lee county availed herself of the privilege of leap year, but does not give the date, so that it may have hap pened after the privilege expired. The young lady is daughter of Mir. John A. Maxwell, farmer and stock raiser, who lives sixteen miles in a northeasterly direction from Gid dings, and who is one of the most prominent, highly respected and well-to-do citizens of the county. The novelty about the elope- ment is that instead of the young man steal ing away the bride and assisting her in her flight she actually went after and stole him away. At the dead hour of the night after they had retired she stealthily left the house, went to the lot and saddled a horse and started to her lovers house in binding rain storm. In order to reach his home she had to swim creek. After accomplishing this brave feat she was safe, for by the next morning the water was spread all over the bottom and pursuit was cut off.-Dallas Tex.) News.

An English Croesus

The richest man, probably, in the British house of commons is MT. Isaac Holden, mem Der for the Keighley division of Yorkshire. He was born at Paisley, and was for some time an ill paid schoolmaster. While teach ing his pupils chemistry he discovered the principle on which lucifer matches are made. But out of this great invention Mir. Holden made no money. Later on he began to de vote his mind to the study of machinery for tho carding of wool, and machine was in- vented which reyolutionized the whole sys- tenn of wool carding. and in that way revolutionized the whole manufacturing history of England and the world. Pos sessed of the patent rights in these valuable machines, fortune poured in upon MT. Holden. He has mills not only in York shire, but also in several parts of France. The average sum he receives every year probably is something like s1 100000 Like most millionaires, the habits of Mir. Holden are as simple as those of clerk-Philadel- phia Telegraph.

An Army In Miniature.

A gentleman by. the name of Lawrence living at West Salem, Ills, has produced remarkable piece of mechanism. It repre- sents an army and consists of 400 pieces. Horses men, cannon, cavalry, artillery, in- fantry, and band of fifty-two men, each holding an instrument, are represented in this wonderful mechanism. Many of the figures move automatically, the power being obtained from miniature windmill, pro- pelled by the heat of candles Galileo's cowled moI k was not rnore strange in struc- ture. Most of the worx, strange to say, was done with . pocket knife, and although Mir Lawrence exercised his ingenuity for year in the construction of the marvellous mech anism yet he disposed of it for a mere nom- inal sum---Indianapolis Journal
