TWO CHILDREN ELOPt.
A Boy and Girl Of IA Supposed to Have
Gone to Cleveland.

A Boy and Girl Of IA Supposed to Have
Gone to Cleveland.
An Alliance special says: Late last
night Mrs. Howell missed her daughter
May, aged IA years, and also S13 from her
pocketbook. Ralph Bosworth, boy of
the same age, was missing about the same
time, and it is supposed the young people
went to Cleveland.
1t seems that for soma time there has
been an attachment between the children,
who are both still in school, and that they
had some time since formed plans of
elopement, but neither had any money
till the girl supplied it.
The news of the escapade created great
excitement.

the Pastorste of the London Taber-
nacle.
The death of Spurgeon left a void in the
ranks OF English preachers which it was
feared could not soon be filed. That the
successor Of the departed orator of the
London Tabernacle should be an Ameri.
can seems not less surprising than It
would have been II the successor Of
Beecher had been looked for in England.
And yet strange as it may appear, such is
the fact, as IT is understood that the Rev.
DR.. Pierson, OF Philadelphia, who offlciat-
ed in Mr.. Spurgeon's pulpit during the
latter's final illness, and who has since
then continued in that capacity, will be
invited by the trustees of the Metropolitan
Tabernacle to fill the pulpit, either
permanently or for term Of FIVE years.
1t is thought that he will probably accept
the latter offer.

The sight was one never to be forgotten.
Men, women and children in dishabille
were huddled in the front hall, crying,
shrieking and praying. Some had bolted
out of doors with hardly any clothes on
and had made for the sea, where they
clamored to go out in boats. Among the
panic stricken folk was an old gentleman in
pyjamas, who had come down the stairs
three steps at time. But on reaching the
hall he exclaimed that he had forgotten
something and must go back. His friends
shouted to him that the upper stories were

The String Broke.

Blank comes to Brooklyn every day from
one of the prettiest of Long Island towns,
where he has one of the prettiest of cot
tages His wife has sister in Carleton
avenue, and to this sister Mr.. Blank often
carries fresh eggs by the score. Mr.. Blank
has plenty of money, and he could easily
afford to keep thousand unproductive
chickens, but the Carleton avenue lady
conscientiously saves all the unused bread
for Mr.. Blanks fowls, and the bane of his
life is the lady's hat box, in which it ac-
cumulates and in which it is finally trans
ported to the chicken house.
Last week consignment of eggs went
one way, as usual, and a consignment of
bread the other. Mr.. Blank is well groomed,
well attired and good looking, but he is
about rs domesticated as one of his own
fowls Just the same, and he never could
summon up enough courage to get up re-
volt on the bread carrying question. His
last experience proved to be the straw that
broke the camel's back.
Among his fellow passengers on the
train were two ladies' He didn't know
them then and he doesn't want to know
them nows AS he left the car he over
heard one of them say:
''That's the kind of husband to have;
he's taking new hat home to his wife"
Mr.. Blank had the hat box by the string
with which is was tied, and the string
with which it was tied didn't happen to be
very strong 1t broke. A choice collection
of stale bread scattered itself over the plat
form, and the ladies-well, the ladies
laughed as ladies will.-Brooklyn Life.

The old man started on the trail down the

bling Jed the more the real novelty and

"Not by burned shot, and sides some

"Git out; they won't neither Take holt

The old man couldn't resist; chuckling
he helped push the cart up hill; chuckling
still, he crawled in and he Uttered as he
told Jed to "hold tight and steer straight"
Away they went. But they had just got

flying cart sheered for the fields. 1t
