JEFFERsoNvILLE, Ind, is men,
toned as the Mecca Of eloping
couples who ran away because it was
cheaper to do so than to have suita-
bic wedding at home. A marriage
occurred recently at Jeffersonville
romantic enough to make one forget
the prudent motives Of a dozen other
couples. Miss Price was the daugh-
ter of a rich Kentucky farmer who
had determined that she should be
an old maid. She had lover, for
whom she left a note in the corner Of
certain field every day, receiving
one in reply. Finally the lover, with
the assistance of doughty colonel
and two female friends, stole the
lady from her chamber window at
night. The romance is all complete,
for the rope ladder and the covered
carriage and impatient team were all
brought into play. The lovers were
welded in Jefersonville and all that
is now wanting is the forgiveness Of
the brides father. This he cannot
withhold for by so doing he would de-
stroy the symmetry Of the story. No
old man would be 80 mean as that.

veracity in excellent repair. .

The planters in the oyerhowed districts o.

Their first idea was to plant corn and similar
short crops. but they have finally announced
that they will try cotton. with which their
places were originally planted. This has
never been done before ct the latter part o.
