A Wall-street fnancier, who is supposed
to be worth between $4,000 600 and $40, Co.,
600, was talking to friend on Change.
You know my son-in-law," said he.
We'll he is smart In fact, too smart to
please me. Last night l rode up town with
him on the elevated road. l wanted to talk
about my daughter, but he talked business.
He gave me quiet tip. Buy st. Louis and
San Francisco, said lie. It's sure thing.
The next mornin l bought 500 shares at IS.
When | went home that afternoon it was
down to 81. That is my smart son-in-law.
But got even with him, see? l was going

will be the st. Louis and San Francisco
stock. These young men must not be per-

The stock was sent to the daughter with
the explanation that the original intention
was to have the present consist of Lake
Shore bonds, but as her husband had such
fancy for st. Louis and San Francisco the
character of the gift had been changed.

MISS EDITH's ELUPEMENT.
A Jersey Belle Runs or with a Farm

A Jersey Belle Runs OF With a Farm
Band.
The quiet little village Of Hartford, few
miles east of Mo0restown, n. j., has been IN
great state of excitement for the past few
days over the elopement Of Miss Edith
Hanes, the belle of the village.
Edith is the eighteen-year-Old daughter Oh
Asa Haines, wealthy farmer, whose place
is on the outskirts of the village She has
been considered the preitieSt girl in the
county, and has been noted for her vlvaclty
and refinement as we'll as her good looks.
Miss Haines entered society last winter, and
was at once the admiration of all the young
men of the surrounding towns. She was
envied by all the girls, and has refused
dozen good offers of marriage. When it was
learned that she had ran off and married
William Dickson, a laborer employed on her
fathers farm the gOSSpS found much 1oou
for discussion.
Farmer Haines noticed some time ago that
Dickson was neglecting his work in order
to be in the society of his daughter, and h
concluded to make an vestigation OF the
relations between them. He questioned MS
daughter, and she admitted to her father
that she loved the young Farmland far bet
ter than any of the "swelled-head dudes
from the city, whom he smiled upon.
The father had in his mind the wealthy
scion of a Mount Holly family as match
for his daughter, and he went to Dickson
and charged him with loving the young
lady. The young man did not deny the
soft Impeachment, but rather felt proud OF
the fact, and he told his employer that his
love was returned. A stormy scene ensued,
which finally ended in the farmer giving
Dickson the alternative of never speak, ng
to pretty Edith again OF leaving the farm at
once.
The young man Indignantly refused to do
the former, and consequently was ordered
away. He went to the house, giving as an
excuse that he wanted his clothes, and while
there he saw Edith. In a few seconds she
promised to be his wife and agreed to run
away with him.
Edith, on Friday night, packed few
clothes in a small handbag and leaving the
back door liar in order that her father, who
was attending a meeting, might come In,
started for the station, where she was joined
by her lover They boarded a train and
journeyed to Camden, where they were
married. When the father returned home
about 8 o'clock he found a note on the table
addressed to him. 1t read:
have gone and married WIN. Forgive us. 1t
was my fault EDITH
The next day Edith wrote her father a
long letter, asking his forgiveness. but they,
