LOS ANGELES THEATER.-Thoughf for
the second time the single and unsatisfac.
tory piano proved a pereptual source of ir-
ritation, despite Signor Gnarro's heroic ef-
forts, the Scaachi opera company gave an
other musical treat last night. There was
but meager audience. The program was
exceedingly onerous for at least two OF the
company. Mile. Toulinguet and Mr. Nc
Queen are both palpably suffering from
overwork. 1t Is penny-wise and pound
foolish policy on the part Of Manager Lee
burger to impose upon artists two such ex-
acting programs on consecutive nights,
and the task is none the lighter when a
singer in grand opera has to depend on
paltry piano for support.
Almost unparalleled generosity in the
matter Of encores Is one of the features of
the little company. Mile. Toultnguet, in
the interest of self.preservation. had no
right further to tax her voice after her
brilliant rendering Of the Roberto II Diav-
olo" aria, but a few thoughtless enthusi-
asts insisted, and the soprano sang the
"Ave Maria" from "Cavalleria Rusticana."
Her Marguerite" supplied proof Of ex-
,austion, although the vocal part Of the per-
formance was not without much merit.

CUPID VICTORIOUS.
An ElOping Couple Arrested, But
Escape From The Officers And
Are Married.

The old saying. Cupid laughs at lock-
smiths" was again proven by a couple
who came to his city Tuesday night,
aroused Recorder Wallace from his downy
cot at IL o'clock and persuaded him to go
to his Office and issue a marriage license.
The young lady was Miss Ethel M.
Beebe, Of Slater, and the gentleman was
Mr.. Brit d. Ingles, a salesman for a large
wholesale establish ent. The yourg
lady's mother objected to Mr.. Ingles'
attentions to her daughter, and forbade
him the privilege of calling at the house.
Following the example OF thousands who
have gone before, they planned an elope-
ment. They met at the Chicago g. Alton
depot at Slater, Tuesday afternoon, and
boarded the west-bound passenger train
for Kansas City. The mother 500 heard
OF their departure and telegraphed to
Higginsville and had them arrested when
tue train arrived there. A later telegram
ordered the officers to release Mr.. Ingles,
but to hold the lady.
The officers put Miss Beebe In a room
at the Arcade hotel and turned the gen.
tlcman loose. Between niue and ten
o'clock at night Mr.. IDgles got a carriage

hotel, and IN some way sent a message to
the young lady prisoner. She eluded the
watchful eyes of the officer Ia whose
charge she had been placed, and in a short
time the carriage LETT Hlgginsvills bearing
Mr.. Ingles, his brlde-elect, and a magis-
trate whom they brought along to per-
form the ceremony. They came to Lex
Ington, walked Mr.. Wallace up and
secured the necessary license, and were at
once married by the gentleman who ac-
companied them here in the carriage.
Each gave their address as Kansas City,
Kansas, when they applied for the mar
riage license, but the telegram which
detained them ct Higginsville was signed
by the girls mother and came from
Slater. which is said to have been the
girls home.
