The Elopement OF Mr. and Mrs. Geor,
w. Baldwin.

w. Baldwin.
Anita Baldwin, the 17-year-old daughter
of L. j. Baldwin. yesterday eloped with
@. w. Baldwin, her husband and cousin.
The couple married on January aboard
the tug Elizabeth, a minister performing
the ceremony.
Young Baldwin is about % years of age,
and came TO California in August 1886. to
accept position as clerk in his unce's
hotel on Market street. lie was a constant
visitor at the home Of his uncle on Califor-
MIA street, and soon fell In love with his
fair cousin, who at the time of his arrival
on the coast was charming little miss Of
IL summers. AS the months rolled by and
the girl budded into womanhood she learned
10 reciprocate the affection of her admirer,
and one day about two years ago she in-
formed her father that she had serious in
tentions OF getting married. Ii was then
that
MR. BALDWIN FLEW INTO RAGE
And condemned the proposed mat h in the
strongest terms. He even threatened to
discharge young George from his employ
and send him so far East that Anita would
never set eyes on him again. But the stern
parent changed his mind and sent his daugh-
ter TO n seminary, at the same time for
bidding the young man TO see or even write
10 her, Clandestine meetings were next in
must have been successfully carried out.
One day Mr.. Baldwin was informed that
his daughter was in the habit OF meeting
the young man outside the seminary
grounds.
He went over to the principal OF the
seminary and warned her not to let the girl
out of her sight on any condition, and to the
fearful Anita he promised severe punish
ment if she did not put George out of her
life forever. George persisted and the
uncle saw that he was being outgeneraled
on every hand, SO on last Christmas eve he
discharged the ardent lover from his en-
ploy and ordered him to proceed East with
out delay. George got as far East as the
ferry and then changed his mind and
WENT TO ANITA.
There he got sympathy and a promise from
the girl 20 elOpe at the earliest opportunity
On January Mr.. Baldwin left town and the
young people got anxious. George could
not get n license, for his lady love was only
IL. so he hired tug and did the next best
thing. On the morning Of January the
minister tied the knot FIVE miles outside the
heads.
When they returned Anita went TO her
home on California street and young Bald
win to his rooms on Mason street Shortly
after the marriage Mr.. B. returned to San
Francisco. and Anita again begged to be
allowed TO marry her cousin, but was again
refused. So matters stood until quite re-
Gently. when the lovers decided that thew
could live apart no longer. Hurried prepar-
atoms were made for departure and yester-
day the pair left San Francisco, but whittier
bound no one knows. Before leaving Mrs
Baldwin wrote to her father telling him OF
her flight and imploring his forgiveness.
The missive will reach him this morning at
Santa Anita.

fsI see a learned health officer of Co

against cholera which he says is bound
to visit America this year" said an old
New Yorker the other day.
'Well, it's raging in Russia and has

and land on Ellis island. God forbid!
81 was here in July, 1882, just sixty
years ago to the month. We hadn't
known cholera before that and we have
not been troubled with it since; but you
remember some laynan said it always
followed in the wake of the grip and
everybody laughed at him. Hasn't 1t
come true?
81 remember that in July, 1882, the
disease was raging here so that every
body was in a panic. The death rate
was $50 day right straight along. The
disease came from Baltimore, being
brought to that port on one of the
famous clipper vessels from the Darden-
Giles. Thousands of physicians came
from all parts of the country to study
the disease. It was not understood well
then, but to-day, with our increased
cleanliness and improved drainage, we
would be better able to cope with it.
