LASCIVIOUS Love.
A Naughty Exploit Of an Ensm-
cured North Fork Couple.
A Penniless Ranch-hand Allures
Pretty Miss Augusta Lucas
Into an Attempted
HOpement-

Andy Springer, young ranch-hand ofPa-
onia, who has been working in the abors vi
cinity for the past few months was brought
day afternoon, and was lodged in Jail by
Sheriff Girardet.
He is under arrest in defanlt of $500 bonds
to appear before the next term of the District
court He is charged with kidnapping, up
OH u warrent sworn out by Mrs. Augusta
Lucas.
Young Springer has been paying attention
to the fifteen year old daughter of Mrs. Lucas
since last Christmas. About two weeks ago
he gained the permission of the girls parents
to take the girl visiting with him. The WIS.,
iting party did not return that night, Spring
leaving the girl in charge of Mrs. Goodnow,
a neighbor, he returning to his 'batching"
quarters. The next morning he started home
with the girl, stopping at.the neighbors, en-
route, finally coming to the conclusion that
the proper thing to be done was to be married,
they concluded to start for Delta with the in
tention of procuring marriage license.
Springer then went to the ranch Of c. T.
Bloxson, procuring, without permission, two
saddle animals. Andy not being satisfied
with his wedding outfit, donned pair Of cream
colored pantaloons, which were also the prop
erty of Blossom. Upon thus being gayly
fitted out as to troussedu, the pair, with butthe
single thought, of reaching the Co. Clerks
Office, stared out in somewhat of a Lochnivar
style, but were met at the upper Gunnison
Ferry by o. Y. Bone, Charlie Bloxsom and a
few others ofthe North Fork, who finally
persuaded Springer to postpone his trip until
he shauli gain the consent of the girls parents
Springer was advised to leave the girl in
charge ofsome neighbors until he should arbi-
trate with the irate parents, but instead of 50
dong. he took the girl to the cabin Of Charley
Bloxsome, the latter being absent.
The next m ,rning brother of the foolish
girl came upon the guilty pair who were
naughtily wrapped in Charlie Bloxson's
blankets. Springer then asserted that they
were legally married and i, would be useless
to cause any trouble, at the same time hand
ling his six shooter rather nervously. The
brother returned to the parents, explaining the
state Of affairs to them.
Mrs Lucas then swCre ont the warrant as
stated above. In justice to the girl, we must
state that she has been duped by Springer.
tho was willin to resort TO any means, how
ever tase, TO gain the maiden FOR his vile.

One Of the most pleasant events of the
season was the entertainment given by the
W. c. T. U. on the night Of Washiugton's
birthday. Like one of our great shows Of
the prescut day. this was = combnstion. a
triple combine We might say, of lottery, a
supper and . ball. First tickets were sold
and the purchaser took ehssees of ges ting
either an old maid. baby, or young lady,
and with her basket of pickles and cake.
Then the mental man WAS RECALLED with mu-
sic and liberation. After these had been con.
cludcd, the &C" part Of the organization
kindly aud CONSIDERABLY withdrew, and per-
mitted the uneodly portion Of those attend.
ing to indulge in the pleasant but sinful eI.
ercise Of the Terpsechorean art. The pro.
ceeds We believe are to be be devoted to SUP.
pressing the other gambling institutions of
the city.
