UNUSUALLY ROMANTIC.

Runaways Welded While a Torrent Sem
arated Them From the Justice
An elopement with some Lochinvar-Lord
Ullin features occurred recently in Clark
County, several miles back of Jacksonville.
Early in the morning Justice Weir received
message requesting his presence at the
hamlet of Blue Lick TO marry couple He
at once mounted and started, but was
greatly impeded by the swollen streams
that lay across his path. When be reached
Blue Lick Creek he found that ordinarily
passable. While trying to devise some plan
to get across there was clatter of hoofs
on the opposite side of the stream,
and in moment horse was
pulled up on the edge of the water. On its
back was Harvey Taylor, who held on the
pommel of his saddle Kate Newny. The
couple wanted to get married and that
quickly. How to do it in view of the water
barrier was question. Finally the Justice
from his side of the creek suggested that the
license be wrapped in handkerchief and
tied TO rock and thrown over to him for
examination. This was done. Then the
Justice mounted his horse, ana using his
hands for a trumpet shouted the words that
are usually employed in marriage cere-
monies at the hand-in-hand couple across
the stream. They shouted back the re-
sponses, and the Justice declared the knot
tled: About 200 feet of water separated
Justice Weir from the couple, and the roar
OF the torrent and patter of the rain Drob
ably rendered the service and responses in
audible, but as all formalties were observed
the marriage is certainly legal-Louisyllle

opened to-day without any signs of definite
Improvement in the situation being shown

with stones by the strikers. The police
