He told the recorder that he had
an object in it. and knew what he was
up to. Opening his coat he showed
a detectives bauge, and said he was a

Recorder Rose told him that they
did rot do a secret business in that of

jim AND MINERVA.
They Wed Against the Wishes of
the Old Folks i'm Kansas.

The locBsmiths sre not smart
enough to thwart the young people.
If they love each other and want t.
marry they are going to do so, regard
less of consequences.
James Allen and Miss Minerva
Bingham have lived in the same
neighbOrhOOd at Highland, Kansas.
The two young people came to st.
Joseph the other evening, says the
Herald, on a matrimonial mission and
are now man and wife.
They had been lovers for many
months but Minerals father had or
dered young Allen away from the
house and said that he would shoot
him If he returned. But James and
Minerva, like Pyramus and Thisbe,
continued to love and managed to
meet often. Several times James pro-
posed that they elOpe, but Minerva
was afraid of her fathers wrath and
refused.
But as spring advanced Minerva's
young heart listened to James pro-
posAl and they sgreed to run away
and become one. They drove from
Highland to Leona and through a
snow storm which d4mpened Min
erya's ardor and causet her to cry
bitterly. But James Jim she called
him = sOOthed her and whispered fond
words of love to her. Everything
considered, it was quite romantic.
Upon arriving in st. Joseph, they
stopped at the Pacific house and the
next day marriage license was pro-
cured, a minister sent for and the
marriage ceremony gone through with.
After they were married young Mr..
Allen telegraphed to his wife's father
as follows:
"MR. BINGHAM Don't be alar n
ed. Your daughter is safe and we are
married. Your son-in-law,
JAMES ALLEN"
Allen wanted to start home with
his bride at once, but she knew her
father better than he did, and refused
to 60 until yesterday, when they took
the Rock Island train for Severance.
At Severance they will take a hack
for Highland, and while Allen thinks
that MIR. Bingham will be waiting for
him with an ak, he hopes to nave
nerve enough to defy the old man as
Ajax did the lightning.
Friends of the young man say that
NJ. Bingham should not take the
matter so seriously. Allen is very
clever young fellow. His father is q
physician of Highland and is quite
wealthy. The young man is well edu-
,aled and is studying law.

FOR A CRUEL MURDER.
A MissOurian on Trial for Delhi
erately Killing an Old
Farmer.

| The evidence in The trial of Viii
liam Spragu for the murder of ID
NJ. Cornelius, a Mexican vetern OF
Oregon county, which is now Oh
trial at Ava, Mo, DEVELOPS one Of
the most cool and deliberate muir
ders ever committed in southern Mis-
souri,.
Sprague is densely ignorant. He
does not seem capable of realizing the
enormity of the crime. He and one
Albert Stacey, who is now in the pen
itentiary for the same crime, started
on Saturday evening of October 10,
1889, TO hunt turkeys in the river
bottoms where the old
man lived. The rext morn
ing about daylight they calIei Corne-
Illus from his hut on the bank IF the
Eleven Points river and asked him to
row them over the river. He ferried
them across and when they arrived at
the opposite bank Sprague asked Cor
nelius why he had settled there OH his
hunting ground, and that if he had
any right to trap and hunt there.
Cornelius replied that he had a right,
and he started to push off his canoe
into the stream. When he had gone
about thirty feet from the bank into
the stream Sprague raised bis gun and
fired, the whole charge taking effect
in the neck below the right ear. Cor
nelius fell into the stream and Sprague
waded in, put the body into the boat
and the men lifted large stone
that weighed seventy.fve pounds into
the canoe and rowed about fifty yar,s
above and after they hal made The
body secure to the stone by using the
tie rope they rolled out both body and
stone into the stream which was about
six feet deep. 1t was proved yester.
day that they then went TO his hut
and took his gun, cartridge belt and
some money which they carried away
and secreted in an old shop near
Sprague's home. 1t was also proved
yesterday that Sprsgue and Stacey
have talked about the old man having
OTIS of money and previous TO this /
hat they were going to get acquaint-
ID with him.
The court room at Ava was packed
llmost to suff IcatiOn yesterday while
he testimony was being given for the
tate. The defense will produce very
title testimony and will bring all the
violence to bear to bring about con-
lotion for murder In the second
egree. Public opinion is against
prague, and it is believed if he is
ot found guilty of murder in the first
egree he will be taken from the |
uard and mobbed. ,
