LOVE AND CHLOROFORM.

A pleasant little dtty which is an es-
pecial favorite with sentimental young per-
sons has for its refrain the soul-stirring
words. Love will find the way" AS fire.
quently interpreted, this dictum is held to
mean that lovers will find way to elule
when two enamored young people set
about such an undertaking they are apt to
succeed. Particularly is this true of Ken
lucky SWANS and sweethearts. From early
times Kentucky lovers have been char
acterized by a disposition to take matters
into their own hands, regardless of opposi-
ton, and to marry each other in spite of
all parental arguments and hindrances
The time-honored method of accomplishing
this purpose has been by elopement, in
which swift flight and only less rapid pur-
suit are essential features. The Kentucky
family which has not among it's traditions
the record of at least one elopement lacks
one important element of proof that it is
an odd and first family. Elopements
figure as leading incidents in all fiction
emanating from Kentucky. and, in fact,
are considered by experienced and saga
cious readers an indispensable blown-in-
the-bottle proof Of their genuine Kentucki-
ness. That the clipping custom still OBJ
tans is amply proved not only by current
literature depicting social life, but by news
dispatches from the Bluegrass State.
Jeffersonvile and other Indiana towns on
the Ohio have long served as Gretna
Greens for fleeing Kentucky lovers, and
their popularity for such purpose seems TO
know no waning. Not a day passes that
Jacksonville justices and preachers are
not called upon TO unite in matrimony fee
ing Kentucky men and maidens. But there
are signs that a change is about TO over
take this ancient Kentucky custom. Miss
Helen Nitten. A Bluegrass belle. has in
stituted a variation in the usual routine
OF proceedings which will have a tendency
to do away with wild rides across the
country by any OF the persons concerned
either parents or lovers. Miss Helen. it is

The Charlottesville Journal says there is
a disposition on the part of a few Demo-
Gratis in Montgomery county to make po-
litical issue out of the appropriation of
$4,000 made by the County Commissioners
to Wabash College. The appropriation
made upon a petition signed by
large number of taxpayers, and in pursu-
ance of law enacted in 1889, which au-
thorizes county commissioners, under GER
tain circumstances, to donate not to ex-
coed $4,000 in aid of any college which
shall be shown to have complied with the
act. The movement for the appropriation
grew out of donations to Wabash College
by Mr.. Simon Yandes. of this city. who
has given the institution. first and last
$4,000. First. he gave $4,000 for the erec-
ton of library building, now known as
Yandes Hall; then $4,000 to the benevolent
fund to aid INDECENT young men in obtain
ing an education 5000 to the library fund.-
to be expended for books, and $4,000 to the
general fund. OF the latter sum $4,000 wa:
on the COnQltlOn IndI the IrlenuS Oh the
college should raise $4,000 additional. \
canvass among the friends of the institu-
ton resulted in securing $4,000. and as
this was all that could be raised by vol
untary subscription, the County Commits
sioners were asked to appropriate $1,000.
They appropriated $4,000 absolutely and
5000 on conditions which make it un-
available, so that the appropriation really
amounts to only $1,000.
1t is surprising that any person in Mont
gomery county should object TO this action
on the part of the commissioners. The APP
preparation is a small return for what Wa
bash College has done for the city Of
Charlottesville and the county OF Mont
gomery during the last fifty years Not TO
speak of the college plant in ground and
buildings. which are estimated TO be worth
$4,000. and the large amount Of money
annually disbursed there by students and
professors. the moral influence of the in
s,itution has been beyond all estimate. An
influence which has been potent enough to
make itself felt throughout the State and
far beyond its limits must indeed have
been most beneficial in the immediate com
