There are. signs OF a dissolution Of

standing all that the liquor interest is
to and does for Hill and Tammany,
"blackinailing of the liquor dealers by
the police continues undated"
OF course this is not only wrong, but
ungrateful in the highest degree, for
without the liquor men Hill and Tam
many could not cut the swath they do.

edge that Hill may he the nominee of

it will support because he will stand on

choly view Of IT,: 4Ihe liquoF trade

LIKE YOUNG LoCHINvAR.
Ward Cheesboro Runs or With aud 5Iar-
rles Miss Cole.

CHEsInaE, MASS, July 2l.-There Was
startling elopement of the Lochinvar
type in this town few days ago, which
has furnished no end of excitement Tor
the town folk and has given the Gossips
enough material to last until corn husk-
ing. Ward Cheeseboro aud Grace Cole,
aged respectively 10 and IS, loved each
other regardless OF parental objections.
The had made mud pies together and
thought they knew each other better
than their parents did. Accordingly.
on Wednesday last, they started on
without asking anybody's permission.
Miss Coles father heard that Chces-
boro had disappeared when she had,
and at once suspected the truth. he
vowed vengeance on the youth who had
robbed him OF his daughter, and with
the best span OF horses in the town
harnessed to his blackboard he started
in hot pursuit. Up hill and down went
his foaming steeds, and finally he
reached the Springs in the shortest time
on record.
Young Cheesboro had a swift horse,
and knowing that Mr.. Cole would prob
ably pursue him, drove to Labanon as
rapidly rs possible, reaching there just
before supper time, having by his side
the pretty blonde. When they reached
Lebanon Springs, although hungry and
tired, they did not wait for supper, but
hunted up Justice of the Peace, who
married them. 1t was scarcely m hour
after the marriage when the father
drove up with his horses dripping with
Precipitation and inquired for them.
He was too late. The young people
had an inkling-t!sat they were pursued
and were beyond the father s roach.
When Mr.. Cole found that his daughter
was married he gave up the chase and
returned to his home in Cheshire.

SOME PERSONAL MATTERS.

John b. Coughs library Is so remark.
able, especially as to the bookbindinG
and his testimonials from temperance
societies at home and abroad, that the
suggestion has been made that it be
preserved entire, and be exhibited pub
licly, in the alcove OF some public
library. Worcester is regarded as the
most appropriate place for such dis
play.
Mrs. Fremont and her daughter are
now in possession OF the house that was
presented to them by committee OF
Los Angeles ladies. II is pretty and
comfortable cottage Of the suburban
style OF architecture, and cost, with the
lot on which it stands, 5000. There is
