An elopement in which Wheeling and
Pittsburg parties are interested appears

and Stella Hearst, Of Pittsburg, were
married on the quiet about the 18th Of
last May, the bride leaving home with
out notifying her mother Of her inten-
tions. Ball became acquainted with the
Hearst girl through her frequent
visits 10 the city as the guest of girl
by the name of Nora Kennedy. After
being married she wrote home several
times, and her mother when first in
formed Of the fact became somewhat
incensed, although she concluded 10 re-
main quiet for awhile. The mother is
a very successful huckster in Pittsburg,
and is said to have stored away con-
siderable money through her shrewd
market ventures. Last week, after think
ing the matter all over, she concluded
to INQUIRE into her daughters proceed
ings, and came TO Wheeling. After
learning the location of Mr.. Balls home
on Market street, she sauntered by once
or twice to get a glimpse OF the hus-
band, as she had never seen him. Pass
ing Pollock's mill. she inquired Of the
engineer, who happened to be stand
ing In the doorway. il she
could be shown Mr.. Ball went he went
I'D. She was allowed TO go up stairs
and look out OF the window until she
might see the man who had run away
with her daughter. She returned to
PIttsburg, however, without visiting
the couple, but IL is believed she will
shortly become reconciled to the match.
Mrs. Hearst occupies \ fine residence In
Pittsburg.

The Summernight Festival by the Opera

The summernight festival given by
the Opera House Orchestra, at the

early evening motors were crowded
with passengers who looked forward
with delight TO the rich musical pro-
gramme they were to hear. In this
they were not disappointed, but COM
pletely delighted with the melody, and
for several hours listened rap
turously to the varions num-
bers. There was an unusually
large gathering for an evening so
dubious at the outset, and the pro-

great care and attention. The follow
