LOVE WILL END A WAY.

There is an old saying that parental
opposition is one of Cupid's warmest
friends, and this has proven true in
many instances. The latest is in the
case of Miss Cassie Cloud, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen Cloud, OF Della
ware avenue and Lincoln street, who
left for ST. Paul. Mimi, last Monday
week, Joined her lover, Mr.. Bethel,
there, and, after the wedding, proceed
ed with him to his hcme in the Sta.e of
Washington.
Mr. Bethel formerly lived in this city
and at that time kept company with
Miss Cloud. They became engaged, but
the parents of The bride-elect objected
to the union. Mr.. Bethel went West a
few years ago and made a comfortable
home for himself in Washington.
Not long ago his sister told Miss
Cloud that he wanted to marry her, re-
gardless of the wishes of her parents.
She gave the excuse that she could not
get her wedding outfit because of her
parents opposition. His sister advised
her Ito get a position some place and
earn enough money to get a modest
outfit
Acting on the suggestion, she became
a domestic in the home of Receiver of
Taxes Horace G. Rettew and became
quite favorite with the family. After
she had worked there what he regarded
as more than a reasonable length of
time Mr.. Bethel sent her a certified
check for 500 and a ticket for st. Paul.
She Immediately set the dressmakers at
work, and her wedding dress was made
by a seamstress whose house is direct
ly across the street from the home of
her parents. When everything was in
readiness she said good-by to the few
who were in the secret and took the
train for st. Paul, where her lover
awaited her. On the day of her ar
rival they were married, and the plucky
little woman is now as happy as a

ring commissions just as he attempted to
cross the track and was unable to move.
